My house smells like fucking Hong Kong
 

I tried making fried rice today in a Wok I got for Xmas. Put in that fucking nasty ass Wok oil and now my house smells like Hong Kong. I dont know how these asian people live with the smells of that shit. Fuck asian food.

you mean it smells like salted sewerage?

Did you season the wok first?
Can I also assume you used peanut oil or was it something else?

I rarely get odd smells when cooking with the wok. Just bursts of chili, garlic, onion, ect. Never can I recall the oil smelling funny unless it starts to burn.

haha damn yer a dumbass

"wok oil"... haha. Next time just get peanut oil and get it over with. Also, if you are going to cook stir fry, make sure you have good ventilation, and be prepared to wipe down everything in your kitchen regularly, as the oil turns to smoke, and carries small droplets all over the place.

Without ventilation, wok cooking is pointless.

salted sewerage, I tells ya. + MSG

Never use this stuff...

The secret of being young for asian is through eating those what you so-called uneatable foods:)

exactly.

Fabreeze works wonders

It smells like Whiskers or Lassie?

hahaha...i can smell it all the way here :-) i can imagine the smell....tastes good but nasty smell....

I LOVE Asian food. My fiancee makes a killer Vietnamese fried rice mix, among other things.

i know that smell well,reminds me of my grandma and her kitchen

I read the thread title fast and thought it said my house smells like KING kong.

That sucks. Hope it doesn't smell like that when it comes out.

I read it the same way...maybe I'm not awake yet
