What food do you prefer “overcooked”?

19 comments

1. I kinda like burnt popcorn

2. If you make a pizza right, the bottom of it has some burnt spots. That’s a feature of good pizza.

3. Sushi

4. Bacon. Nice and crisp – a little brown/scorched.

5. Noodles, “al dente” is stupid.

6. Pizza

7. Hot dogs. Burnt

8. The onions and mushrooms served with a rare steak, and smoked fish fillets like mackerel are best crispy.

9. Instant Ramen. I’ll bring it to boil, then turn off the heat, and let it sit 10 mins. Extra plump noodles make me happy.

   Same with macaroni and cheese, but I don’t add the cheese mix until after plumping, vs ramen flavor goes in the boil water.

10. bacon. you cook that til it’s just shy of blackened and i’m weak

11. Soy

    I’m assuming “over cooked” means you have to throw it out.

12. Eckeridge sausage and beef hot dogs on the grill

13. Burn spots on pizza cheese and pepperoni with charred edges

14. Fried eggs

15. Scrambled eggs. I can’t stand the snotty “proper” version

16. Pizza.

17. Toast.

18. I prefer fall-off-the-bone ribs, but smoking pros will tell you that means they’ve been cooking too long.

19. Chinese instant noodles.
    They have to be more that just done.
    I like them extremely soft
