Just wanted to say thanks for this. Haven't tried any of the recipes, but I appreciate the link and I'll let you know how it goes when I try any of these.

I'm probably going to make a Big Mac :D

HOLY SHIT I JUST NOTICED THERE'S THE RECIPE FOR KFC GRAVY

I'm all over this. Thanks, OP!

The main thing that makes KFC gravy taste good is the MSG. I see that the recipe calls for making a dark roux, so be careful, because that's difficult to make without burning. Unless you know what you're doing, you need to basically stir constantly for a half hour or so, not the "occasionally" as it says.

if MSG makes food taste better, why are so many people against using it?

>>134

Because it has health paranoia floating all around it.

Whether it's true or not has yet to be determined.

Alton reckons you can make any coloured roux in an oven, no faffing required.

Doesn't burn because it's not hot enough, cooks evenly because it's an oven.

the cinnabon rolls are amazing and yes the raw dough is extremly soft and takes some practice to work with but the end result is amazing

You make me hate myself, but I love you.
