S/O who can't cook

My mother just served steak tonight and told me she used a half cup of salt for the seasoning.

She inspired this and is also banned from ever touching salt again.

This is just in good fun, cause some of us fuck up a dish now and then. No shame in it. But if any of you put half a cup of salt in like my mother I'm judging, sorry, that's a war crime.

also Asa is finally making his debut, in a joke post, very fitting for this blog.

Jason Voorhees

Now, Jason isn't a picky eater. He's survived off wild animals alone, he didn't have anything like salt and pepper until you came along. He'll eat something, even if it doesn't taste good, because he has to eat to live. He eats because he has too, not because he enjoys it.

But he… Definitely knows what bad food tastes like. Thanks to you.

He would never tell you that it's bad, he will swallow it down and not even flinch, even though it is way over salted. He will nod his head and give a thumbs up when you ask if he likes it, because his mother raised him better than to chastise you for your cooking, especially since you didn't have to cook for him.

But, if you admit you might have over-seasoned, he is going to agree, but only since you brought it up first.

You might burn his marshmallows a little too much, but he is still going to eat them regardless. After a while, he starts to like the burnt taste a little, but he still definitely prefers when it's golden brown.

If he peeks into the kitchen and sees you adding too much powder into the bowl, he will simply swallow his pride before coming in to help you cook, though he won't mention the flour.

He's a gentleman about it.

OG Michael Myers

In a similar boat as Jason, he's not a picky eater. He's eaten raw dogs.

But he definitely knows cupcakes aren't supposed to taste like cornbread.

He won't say anything, but he's definitely going to take a pause after his first before continuing to eat.

That's his moment of, "oh, this is gross.", but again, he's not picky. At least he's getting food, it's an upgrade from raw dogs.

But if it gets to a certain point, he won't eat it. If he can't swallow the steak because it's so tough, he's just putting his fork down. If the chicken is so dry it won't go down, he's spitting it out. He can't even eat it at this point.

That's his silent, "this sucks," to you. He's not afraid to lock eyes with you as he spits out the food either, cause he wants the message to get across.

Yes, he will be sleeping on the couch tonight.

2018 Michael Myers

Michael has gotten pickier in his old age, but he still eats about anything.

But he has gotten picky. He can't eat really tough food anymore, his teeth aren't as strong as they used to be, to his dismay. His steak needs to be soft, the chicken needs to be moist, the ham can't be dry. He's not even doing it to be an ass, he just can't eat it.

But how do you mess up so badly with pancakes? They're still liquid on the plate!

Oh he's going to speak up if it's bad. You better be able to be able to take criticism, cause when you ask him if he likes it, he's going to be honest.

He would try to help you improve, but he doesn't know how to cook either.

He steals some cookbooks for you and hopes that is enough.

RZ Michael Myers

"How's it taste, Michael?" "................"

He will just eat in silence.

He's guilty of dog consumption, but the sheer amount of salt on this meat almost made his eyes water.

He will finish his plate, but very obviously doesn't like it. He will agree with you if you say it was bad, but he won't say it if you don't. His body language kind of says it all though.

Brahms Heelshire

Will spit it straight out if he doesn't like it.

"It's too salty, Y/N!"

He already hates his veggies, but they're practically black, they've been so burnt!

He is a brat, and will throw a fit about it if you make him eat it.

He will stand proudly in the corner for his punishment if it means he doesn't have to eat the food, he's that stubborn.

Bo Sinclair

"You are banned from the kitchen." He says, after clearing his plate.

He's another one who will swallow his pride and eat it, but he's definitely critiquing it.

Three strikes and you're out. He's always been the cook in the house, if you can't cook, he's got no problem taking up that position in the kitchen, especially if you keep making rubbery eggs.

Bo will offer to teach you how to cook if you ask him too. He won't tease you for it, he'll genuinely teach you.

And if you want to cook with him, you're more than welcome to help.

If you actually manage to improve your cooking skills, he will give you control of the kitchen, and praise you with each dish that gets better and better.

It's a rare moment of genuine Bo care.

Vincent Sinclair

He's not saying he prefers Bo's cooking over yours, but he's definitely encouraging you to rest if you express not wanting to cook that night.

He also cleans his plate, but he's grateful for his mask because he always grimaces when he tastes over-seasoned food. Especially if it's too much garlic.

He silently mourns every dry cake that he eats, hoping the next one will be moist, but will swallow down the dry one regardless. With a large glass of milk on his side.

"I'm telling them, man." Bo says to him one day, after a steak even you had to admit you over salted.

"Don't you dare." Vincent immediately signed back. The steak was bad, but he wasn't going to let Bo make you feel bad about it. Vincent never wanted to hurt your feelings.

But you heard. "Tell me what?"

"That your steak su-"

Vincent elbows his twin in the stomach before he can finish that sentence before coming over to help you with the dishes, signing to you to ignore his brother.

Bubba Sawyer

Y/N, he can't help you here, you got Drayton and the twins against you.

Bubba would never tell you that your cooking is bad, he would always praise you and encourage you, even if he didn't like it. Because he really doesn't want to hurt your feelings, and he knows you worked really hard on it.

His hands are tied, he can only shrug and look away in shame as Drayton scolds you.

And really, Y/N, you only need a teaspoon of chili pepper, not a quarter of the shaker…

Bubba would also teach you how to cook, and he's a great teacher, so it won't be long before Drayton stops critiquing your cooking. Too much. He's always going to have a snide comment here or there, because he's Drayton.

Bubba loves to cook with you, and even if you don't improve your cooking skills, he absolutely lets you chop some stuff for him or grab bowls for him, or another spoon if he needs it. He loves to spend time with you in the kitchen, even if he's doing all the work, he's just happy you're there.

Thomas Hewitt

Oh, Y/N… No…

Thomas is never going to let anyone say anything too harsh to you, not even his mother, he will always stick up for you. But at the same time, he will pull you aside some days and show you how to season properly.

He's very gentle in his approach, never demeaning and always praising when you improve, and rubs your back when you make a mistake here and there.

Luda Mae is the same, she will teach you if you ask. You're also free to help her by grabbing utensils when she's cooking or fetching something from the pantry for her.

If you want to stick to dish duty, no one will try to stop you.

Just please, for the love of all that is holy, add milk to your cake batter.

Asa Emory

Can only watch in awe as you dump half a cup of salt onto a steak and see no problem with it.

He's looking between you, the steak, you, and the steak again to make sure he's seeing this right.

Eventually he can only cover his mouth and watch as this steak is seasoned.

Yeah, no, you're done. Time for cooking lessons.

He is a very good teacher, though he will make you swallow every bite of your failed dishes until you start improving.

You'll start to pick up adding the correct amount of water to your pancake batter in no time.

You're not going back into that kitchen on your own ever again, he is always going to keep an eye on you as you cook from now on. Though his judgmental stares will turn into praise the more you improve.

"You made it perfect this time." "You got it to the perfect temperature." "Those were your best brownies yet." Things along those lines.

#slasher x reader #michael myers x reader #thomas hewitt x reader #vincent sinclair x reader #bo sinclair x reader #jason vorhees x reader #bubba sawyer x reader #asa emory x reader #help I think my mother is trying to kill me via salt #if you're measuring your seasonings with cups you gotta leave the kitchen #yes the bubba gif is 100% intentional #to capture the vibe at the sawyer table

Commission#4

For @vchanny-og

Prompt: Makoto teaches the girls to cook. To commission me please click here for information! To see what other people are offering up commissions please see here!

The recipe for peanut butter cookies is fool-proof, three-ingredients. Four, if you added chocolate chips. The first time that Makoto had made them, Usagi had eaten two dozen by herself, and when she’d found out how easy they were, she’d begged and whined and pouted until Makoto had agreed to teach her.

“Mamo-chan would love these, don’t you think? Especially if we add chocolate! And peanut butter is healthy and has lots of protein so he wouldn’t even disapprove!”

Eggs. Crunchy peanut butter. Sugar. Chocolate chips. Parchment-lined baking sheet for 11 minutes at 170 degrees Celsius.

Makoto lines up all the ingredients on the counter, helpfully preheats the oven to the correct temperature. She goes out to her balcony to check on her plants, and is halfway through dead-heading some leggy basil when the smell of smoke comes wafting through the open door. Thoroughly alarmed, she drops her clippings and runs in, yanks the oven open to find lumps of what look to be charcoal. Usagi’s wail could pass for a fire engine careening onto the scene complete with lights and sirens.

“I don’t know what happened, Mako-chan! I didn’t do anything except what you asked, and now everything is ruined and there are NO COOKIES and you are probably going to be mad at me!”

With a long, windy sigh, Makoto checks the counter. Peanut butter, check. Sugar, check. Chocolate chips, check-- and if she’s not mistaken, Usagi dumped in about half a cup more than the recipe called for. A bowl of cracked open eggs, yolks almost mockingly bright orange, winked up at her.

Makoto shakes her head, sends Usagi out to the bakery, and cuts up some peppers and tomatoes, retrieves her snipped basil. It seemed like she’d be having omelettes for dinner.

“So we sear the steak at a high temperature in a cast-iron skillet to take advantage of the Maillard reaction for the sake of optimal flavour.” Ami scribbles some type of complex chemical molecule diagram on the margins of the recipe that she’d meticulously copied from Makoto’s cookbook, and does a few equations, and murmurs to herself. “I suppose that makes sense. The temperature of the cooking surface will exceed 140 degrees Celsius, which will cause the reactive carbonyl group of the sugar present in the molecule interact with the nucleophilic amino group of the amino acid.”

“Yeah. Something like that. And then you finish in a low and slow oven so you don’t overcook the meat. This is an expensive cut of steak-- you don’t want it to be cooked to death.”

Makoto did not care over-much about the complex chemical reactions and science behind the process-- it was enough, really, to know that as long as one controlled the temperature and time, and seasoned the pricey cut of beef simply but well (sea salt, coarse-ground pepper and a few sprigs of rosemary), one could have a fancy date night meal in the comfort of one’s own home. “Medium rare is the optimal doneness for steak, in my opinion. Use a food thermometer, cook it to 54 degrees Celsius, then rest for three minutes before slicing, and you’re good to go.”

“I understand the reasoning behind safe internal cooking temperatures,” Ami muses as she follows Makoto’s lead, carefully wiping down the cherry-red surface of her steak with a paper towel to dry it, then sprinkling on salt and pepper on both sides. “Obviously, you don’t want harmful disease-causing microorganisms to grow within your food product, and it either needs to be too hot or too cold for the bacteria and viruses and fungi to survive. But why are there exceptions to the rule? Your recipe says that a rare steak reaches the internal temperature of 51 degrees, a medium rare of 54, a medium of 58 and so on. Doesn’t that put the person who prefers to eat their steak rare at greater risk? How does a restaurant get around that liability? It’s not as though it can do a medical check of the customer to ensure that they have no history of immunological disorders or gastrointestinal problems. And what about nations which choose to ignore these limits altogether? We serve sushi and sashimi here in Japan, which is certainly not cooked to 62 or highter. The French have their Carpaccio and tartare. The Lebanese have their kibbee nayee, and so on.”

Makoto watches as Ami grinds exactly three shakes of pepper onto each side of her steak, then rolls her eyes. “How does your guy like his steak cooked? That’s all I need to know.”

Ami blushes almost as red as the meat she’s fiddling with. “Umm. Medium rare is fine. And he’s hardly ‘my’ guy. More of Mamoru’s, wouldn’t you say?”

“You’ve already split hairs over the science of cooking. I don’t think I have enough energy to argue over the exact nature of your relationship with the mouthy blond menace. Do you think you can put together a nice green salad to go with these steaks? That way we can get done quicker, and I can make myself scarce before he comes here.”

Makoto knows better than to attempt to teach Rei anything too outlandish in the kitchen. Rei is a traditionalist in every sense of the word, and probably would not be caught dead in some hipster gastro-pub serving deconstructed salad of micro-greens topped with lobster foam something-or-another no matter how many Michelin stars and James Beard awards the place might have won. Rei is also reasonably competent with her hands and not particularly accident-prone, so something like steamed gyoza seems right up her alley. Sure, making the filling and dough from scratch is an extra effort, but her friend had never been the type to settle for mediocre and ordinary.

Her first warning that things might not turn out quite so well is when Rei takes a full step back when she sets the food processor on the counter. “What is that?”

Her tone could only have been snottier had the food processor been possibly coated in dung and mildew and maybe plastered with boy band stickers. “It’s a food processor. So we can easily chop up the chives, grind up the pork.”

“I have a perfectly serviceable set of knives here.” Rei turns up her aristocratic little nose and points to the knife-block, which, to be fair, holds a set of heirloom-quality blades. Trust the senshi of war to know her sharp objects, Makoto thinks drolly, but she acquiesces. “All right. You can mince the chives with that, I guess. But I’m using the food processor to grind the meat.”

They both get to work, and Rei glares at the machine as soon as it starts up as though the noise offended her on a personal level. She’s not bad-- indeed, her cuts are decent even by chef standards, but by the time Makoto has finished up her meat and mixed in soy sauce and ginger and garlic and a pinch of allspice and an egg, she’s only about a quarter of the way done with her chives. Slowly and stubbornly, she soldiers on as Makoto measures out flour and water and a pinch of salt.

“What in the world is that?”

Now, the question is directed towards the stand mixer plugged into the wall outlet. Makoto doesn’t even dignify that with a response, and dumps in flour, salt and water, lets fly. Sure, she can knead the dough by hand if she wanted to. And stretch it, cut it, roll it out for the dumpling wrappers. And maybe, if he’s very, very lucky, Jun would have gyoza sometime within the next two years. She’s just about ready to start rolling the dough when Rei finally finishes cutting the chives by hand, and dumps them into the bowl of the ground meat mixture, scowling at the way the damp green mince clings to her fingertips. Makoto finishes mixing the filling, then shows Rei, quickly, how to pinch the edges of the dumpling shut.

She waits until the knives are washed and put away and the pot is simmering before turning to her friend with a mischievous look, tongue firmly tucked in cheek. “Well. I’m sure Jun will appreciate your painstaking work on this meal, doing things the old-fashioned way by hand. He’ll know just how much you care from the sheer effort you went through.”

If looks could kill, Makoto would be buried six feet under complete with an ugly angel-shaped monument and an elaborate wreath of flowers on her grave. She manages to keep a straight face while she takes the dumplings out the pot, then excuses herself. She’s still laughing when she arrives at her own apartment a good half-hour later.

Leave it to Minako, of course, to want to learn the most complicated, exotic dish of them all.

“I think it would be perfect! He doesn’t eat pork or beef, and I love spicy food, and I know you’ll help me and it will turn out wonderfully!”

Makoto eyes the recipe bookmarked on Minako’s phone-- very heavily starred on Pinterest, and apparently the handiwork of some world-renowned celebrity chef. “Indian lamb curry, though? That’s… quite ambitious of you, Minako.” Indeed, the list of ingredients is daunting in and of itself, even for a seasoned home cook, and Minako’s idea of gourmet home cooking generally involved cracking an egg over her boiling ramen noodles.

“Oh don’t you worry. I’ve watched a TON of youtube videos. And cooking reality shows. That Gordon Ramsay is HILARIOUS. And it all goes into the slow cooker, so it hardly requires fancy techniques and knifework and the like. All I have to do is toss everything in there and push a button and spend the rest of my time making myself look gorgeous and sexy, right??”

Makoto eyes the recipe again. She’s pretty sure that Minako has never heard of the term ‘garam masala’ in her life. “Maybe you should at least let me taste it before you serve it. Just in case.”

Six hours later a mostly-decent-looking sample of the dish is placed in front of her. The curry is an appetizing orange-brown colour, and the kitchen smells invitingly of spices. Minako had even taken the time to toss some finely chopped parsley onto the meat for a pop of bright green. Makoto is pleasantly surprised, and gives Minako an approving smile which lasts all of three seconds-- the three seconds it takes to put a piece of the meat in her mouth. She gags, and spits it out. “Oh, GOD! What did you put in this?! It tastes like the Dead Sea… if the Dead Sea were on fire!”

Minako shoots her a wide-eyed look from those baby blues, thoroughly bewildered. “Welllllll… all these videos said to salt with every step of the cooking pricess. So I did. It was probably like close to half a cup of salt total, because I added some after every other ingredient. And then I didn’t have tomato paste so I substituted ketchup. Basically the same thing, you know? And I didn’t have the tablespoon of fresh ginger, so I used a tablespoon of ginger powder, and shelled pistachios look just like cardamom pods for like a tenth of the price, and I used Old Bay seasoning instead of Bay leaves… But the only thing I absolutely couldn’t figure out at all was this ‘garam masala’ stuff! So I left it out.”

Without a word, Makoto dumps the entire contents of the slow cooker into the trash, picks up her phone, and dials the local Indian restaurant, Within short order, two takeout containers are delivered-- an Indian lamb curry, and an accompanying container of cheese naan and rice.

“Just… put it in your own plates,” Makoto tells the other girl, shaking her head between gulps of water. “The kitchen smells like you’ve been cooking all day. It’ll be our little secret and he will never, ever know.”

Food Friday - Jan 24th, 2020 “A Pig Fucking a Chicken While the Rooster is Watching” Prep Time: 40mins

In honor of my best friend I took a stab at reinventing of one of the best breakfast sandies I have ever had.

In college, a Pig Fucking a Chicken While the Rooster is Watching, was a cure all:

- Were you out all night boozing and making bad decisions on the dance floor? Eat a Pig Fucking a Chicken While the Rooster is Watching!

- Did some little philly break your heart? Eat a Pig Fucking a Chicken!

- Just take a midterm and you didn’t know a single answer of the test? Eat a Pig Fucking a Chicken!

My Best Friend and Roommate, Andy, concocted this scrumptious breakfast staple after a late bender/early morning during winter break. Like a raccoon my buddy racked up ingredients from the fridge - Slices of ham from Christmas dinner leftovers, uneaten chicken strips from our other roommate’s takeout, and some spare eggs.

Andy was always doing this shit -like a Master Chef in a Drunk’s Kitchen - just taking menial scraps and repurposing them into something you never knew you needed/wanted. We made so many delicious messes. We spent more time on creating our diner menu than we did on our studies.

In remembrance of my friend on the cusp of his birthday (Jan 27th), I attempted to “improve” on Andy’s breakfast sandy and failed - There Is No Beating the Original!

Here is my Failed Attempt at a College Classic:

INGREDIENTS:

- Pork Products - I used Deli Ham, Sausage, and Bacon ( but feel free to use your favorites Ham Steak, Canadian Bacon)

- Breaded Chicken Breast (I used frozen but some strips from DQ work great - better even)

- Hasbrowns

- Egg(s)

- Cake Donuts (Unfrosted if you can find them)

- Salt

- Pepper

- Butter

DIRECTIONS:

- If you are using frozen Chicken Tenders - preheat your oven and get them baking.

- In a skillet cook your hashbrowns to your liking - I season mine in salt and pepper and cook a few pads of butter. Once your hashbrowns are to your liking, set aside for assembly.

- Meanwhile - If a waffle iron is available - smash up your Donuts and cook in a heated waffle iron. I don’t recommend cooking over 2mins.

- In separate/clean skillet cook your Bacon and Sausage - I recommend at least (2) strips of Bacon and (1) Sausage Patty. Once cooked set aside for assembly - but hold onto the bacon/sausage grease...

- Is your chicken done cooking yet? If so, wrap the Chicken Tenders in deli ham and score it in a skillet. The ham wrapped chicken helps sells imagery of a Pig fucking a Chicken - Imagine a metaphor for a Lover’s Warm Embrace.

- Lastly, in the skillet with the pork sweat aka the pork grease - fry your egg. I prefer Over Easy.

ASSEMBLY:

- Split your Donut Waffle in half and make piece your Base

- Layout your hashbrowns on your Donut Waffle Slice - kind of like a Hen’s nest. Follow by placing your Fried Egg in the bed of the hasbrowns.

- Cover your egg with a Sausage Patty

- Top with a Ham Embraced Chicken Tender

- Layered in your strips of Bacon

- Finally top off by the other Donut Waffle Slice

FEAST

* Look at That Jaw Just Unhinge *

WHERE I WENT WRONG...BESIDES COOKING WITHOUT A BUZZ:

1. Donuts sound like they would have been an awesome deliver device, but the donut was too sweet. I tried finding cake donuts with no glaze, but sadly there were none in the area - even still - I think plain cake donuts would have still been too sweet.

2. If I were to use Donuts again - I will not be waffling them - I would probably use them more like a bagel.

3. I would either pull the Sausage Patty or the Bacon - sometimes minimalism is best.

4. The Chicken Strips were too thick - Thinner Chicken Strips in the sake of being able to fit the sandy in one’s mouth without having to unhinge their jaw.

5. I forgot the basic essentials! Andy would make the sandy with a zesty mayo (hot sauce and mayonnaise) and throw on a slice of cheese.

THE OG PIG FUCKING A CHICKEN WHILE THE ROOSTER IS WATCHING:

I went back and made another sandy the way Andy would have - like the OG Pig Fucking a Chicken While the Rooster is Watching. Couple slices of bread and remembered the cheese and zesty mayo.

And that is what cooking is about - experimenting, making mistakes, destroying a waffle iron, and then eating your mistakes.

* Ahhhhh, Much Better...*

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

- Pairs well with Orange Juice or Mimosas

Pie Guys Pizza - Hamburg Turnpike in Wayne, NJ

I saw that NJ 101.5 recently had a Pizza Showdown, so I was obviously curious to see what spots were in the running for best pizza in NJ. I was surprised to find that neither of the places from North Jersey were places I had been, much less heard of. Chas and I were pretty close to Wayne recently though, so we decided to check out Pie Guys. The specialty slices were lauded as some of the best in the area, so we went in with that in mind. We both started with one since we had already stopped for a slice earlier in the day, and I couldn't help but scope the buffalo chicken while Chas tried out the "Old World" with vodka sauce. The slices were a little small in size, but still had the toppings heaped on, and for good reason; the specialties were almost $3.50 each! Kinda pricey when the slices are small enough that you can eat 2 after already eating a slice somewhere else.

You might be thinking "well, it was expensive, but maybe it was still worth it!" The answer? Not really. The buffalo chicken, while having very tasty buffalo sauce, had a number of flaws. First off, the crust was both very doughy and very chewy. It almost tasted like it was whole wheat too, which just doesn't taste or feel the same as a standard pizza crust. Also, the chicken was very mushy which just isn't the kinda chicken I want on a buffalo slice. Chas' "Old World" slice had a similar vibe. The seasoning was the only thing that really stood out; the rest of the toppings were kinda sparse. It was also a little too thin-crusted for Chas, though I didn't mind.

After we finished our slices, we still had enough room for a second round, so we decided to scope a couple more slices, because most of them did look pretty promising. This time around, I got a cheesesteak slice (they also had a chicken cheesesteak slice but I wanted to keep it OG) and Chas got a Sicilian. Both weren't bad, but also not incredible. Despite all the cheese, steak, peppers, and onions on my slice, it still somehow managed to taste pretty plain. Everything kinda just blended in a way that cancelled everything else out. Chas was down with his Sicilian's crust (the dough was solid), but the sauce didn't fit the slice, as the seasoning was kinda weird. I didn't want to even try it because I am not down with that Sicilian BS.

So is Pie Guys worth checking out? I would say yes. While I wasn't overly impressed by anything, it was good enough for me to want to go back to sample some of the other slices. Maybe they were just having an off day or something! Plus the staff was very nice. Don't go out of your way, but if you're in Wayne hankering for a slice, you could do a lot worse than this. Still, check out Brother Bruno's first.

Giving up dessert is no fun, so health-savvy folks have long tried to find ways to satisfy a sweet tooth.

Arman Liew discovered a way to have his cake and eat it too–in decadent creations that indulge the appetite and pack in the nutrients. From breakfast reinvented to no-bake treats, recipes include: Protein Peanut Butter Cups Dark Chocolate and Salted Caramel Waffles Molten Lava Cake White Chocolate Raspberry Bars

There’s no tapioca flour, coconut nectar, or xanthan gum to be found here. Make something sweet the moment the craving hits, from foods that are already in the cabinet. Add in terrific photography and this is a book every health-conscious person should have on hand.

The Gifting Cookbook

Antoni in The Kitchen By Mindy Fox

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! *One of Food & Wine’s Essential New Cookbooks for Fall* *One of Eater’s Best Fall Cookbooks 2019* *One of Amazon’s Best Cookbooks for Fall 2020*

Antoni Porowski, the food and wine guru on Netflix’s sensation Queer Eye, meets people where they live–literally. With appealing vulnerability, he shows cooks of all levels how to become more confident and casual in the kitchen. The verve and naturalness of his approach earned raves from Food & Wine and Bon Appétit to GQ and the New York Times, which noted his dishes prove that “sometimes simple is anything but simplistic.”

Some of the recipes in this book are weeknight healthyish meals, while others are perfect for off-the-cuff entertaining. Visual stunners, they’re often composed of fewer than five ingredients. Whether Bastardized Easy Ramen; Malaysian Chili Shrimp; Roasted Carrots with Carrot-Top Pesto; or Salty Lemon Squares, all are visual stunners and can be carried off with panache, even by beginners.

The World’s Best Burgers as Picked by Stars of Gastronomy

(Bloomberg) — The humble hamburger rarely has a place in traditional fine dining, but for many top chefs it’s one of the food world’s greatest guilty pleasures.

It’s a simple dish that’s found everywhere and loved all around the globe. But where can you get the best one and what’s the secret to turning a handful of minced beef (or something else) and some bread into a delicacy? We asked the culinary elite — chefs laden with Michelin stars and other accolades — for their favorite burgers when they are having a sneaky time out from gastronomy.

Here are their picks.

Australia Burger Project, Sydney

Neil Perry of Rockpool Bar & Grill is the big-name chef behind Burger Project, which works with local suppliers. The patty is hand-made, 100% grass-fed beef. Try the American, with Cape Grim beef, cheese, pickles, onions, mustard, secret sauce & rose mayo; or a simple cheeseburger. Chosen by Scott Collins of MEATliquor, London

Butchers Diner, Melbourne This 24-hour, hole-in-the wall joint with a counter and stools is a favorite with chefs who enjoy its unfussy food with high-quality ingredients. The hamburger is a 120-gram beef patty with tomato sauce, pickles & mayo in a milk bun. Chosen by Ashley Palmer-Watts, formerly of Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, London

Butter, Sydney Butter is a hybrid sneaker, fried chicken and Champagne bar in Surry Hills. If that sounds an unlikely setup, it is the project of respected chef Julian Cincotta and the team from Thievery restaurant in Sydney. The OG Chicken Sandwich is not to be missed. Chosen by Josh Niland of Saint Peter, Sydney

Mary’s, Melbourne This is an outpost of a Sydney chain, with loud music, natural wines and an American vibe. Founders Jake Smyth and Kenny Graham favor local suppliers for their meat and wines, and big flavors. The cheeseburger is a must unless you’d prefer the vegan menu. Chosen by Andrew McConnell of Cutler & Co., Melbourne

China Honbo, Hong Kong

This homage to the classic American burger joint serves great food. The patties are made with Double Gold American beef from Wisconsin, served in a potato milk bun. The double cheeseburger is the signature option. Chosen by Shane Osborn of Arcane, Hong Kong

WANT MORE? Upgrade the luxury in your life with the Pursuits Weekly newsletter. The best in high-end autos, food, real estate, fashion, culture, and lifestyle delivered every Wednesday.

Denmark Gasoline Grill, Copenhagen Fresh organic burgers are cooked at this walk-in joint, which is attracting attention far beyond Denmark. Housed in a former gasoline station, it has a short menu like a simple roadside grill. It’s worth going off piste with the vegetarian Green Burger. Chosen by Jamie Lee of Kødbyens Fiskebar, Copenhagen; Clare Smyth of Core by Clare Smyth, London

France Badia, Grand Hôtel Thalasso, Saint-Jean-de-Luz This grand old hotel overlooking the bay of Saint-Jean-de-Luz is an idyllic spot to eat. And Le Burger is particularly good, featuring truffled bread, Charolais ground beef, Basque sheep’s cheese and Espelette pepper ketchup with fries. Chosen by Shane Osborn of Arcane, Hong Kong

Bioburger, Paris

As the name suggests, this Parisian restaurant serves organic burgers and they are full of flavor. One favorite is Le Poivre: a choice of beef or vegetable patty with farmhouse cheddar, tomato, salad, onion jam and pepper sauce. It’s like eating steak au poivre on a bun. Chosen by Greg Marchand of Frenchie, Paris

CAB Comptoir à Burger, Biarritz This restaurant is located close to Les Halles, the daily market in Biarritz, from which the chefs source the freshest of produce. The buns are cooked to a special recipe and all the sauces are homemade, says Paris-based chef Hélène Darroze. Try Le Parm, with a Parmesan tuile, Mozzarella and arugula and pesto with sun-dried tomatoes. Chosen by Hélène Darroze of Hélène Darroze, Paris

India Swati Snacks, Mumbai

Burgers don’t have to be about a chunk of meat. Try the Vada Pav at this popular vegetarian cafe. Fried potato dumplings are served in buttery soft buns and laced with sinus-clearing spicy chutneys and deep fried green chilis. Not for the fainthearted. Chosen by Ravinder Bhogal of Jikoni, London; Prateek Sadhu of Masque, Mumbai

Italy Lucernaio Pub, Ragusa This pub in Sicily serves an excellent sausage burger with black olives, radicchio, stewed onion and Ragusano cheese, says Italian chef Ciccio Sultano, who holds two Michelin stars for his Sicilian haute cuisine. “It’s my go-to order if I am there,” he says. Chosen by Ciccio Sultano of Duomo, Ragusa

Japan MOS Burger, Tokyo This Japanese chain has been serving burgers adapted to Japanese tastes since 1972. Try the Rice Burger served with grilled beef, sweet soy and BBQ sauce between patties of compacted rice. The Kinpira Burger is a great vegan option. Chosen by Hisato Hamada of Wagyumafia, Tokyo

Wagyumafia, Tokyo The Cutlet Sandwich from Wagyumafia at Nakameguro station is made with thick-sliced pure Kobe beef, breaded and deep fried, sandwiched between two slices of Japanese milk bread with a secret house-made sauce. It harkens back to the original burger at Louis’ Lunch in New Haven, yet is distinctly Japanese, says three-Michelin star chef Kyle Connaughton. The prices are something else. The budget (Zabuton) version is 5,000 yen ($45.50) rising to 50,000 yen for the Kobe Champion. Chosen by Kyle Connaughton of Singlethread, Healdsburg, California

Mexico Hamburguesas al Carbón Torreon The inexpensive charcoal-grilled burgers at this street stand near Pushkin Garden are world class, according to Mexican chef Enrique Olvera, whose Pujol places at 12 in the current ranking of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants. Chosen by Enrique Olvera of Pujol, Mexico City

El Rey del Taco, Mexico City Mexican chef Martha Ortiz prefers tacos to burgers. El Rey del Taco covers both bases with the Cheeseburger Taco, which features a grilled patty with Chihuahua cheese served in flour tortillas with mayo, tomato and avocado. Chosen by Martha Ortiz of Filigrana, Mexico City

New Zealand Fergburger, Queenstown New Zealand chef Josh Emett is a big fan: “You will always remember you first Fergburger. First, there’s the long queue, and then the care taken to put them together so they are all picture perfect. I love a bit of avocado and bacon in anything and these burgers never disappoint.” Chosen by Josh Emett of Rātā, Queenstown
