Time for the Wednesday Mind Hump. These are last week’s questions, I’m sure this week’s will be uploaded soon but I’m impatient.
1. Have you ever cut or burned yourself while cooking? I burn myself all the time. It’s not really accidental though, I just have a tolerance towards hot plates from cooking all these years.
2. Have you ever put in a wrong ingredient in a dish (sugar instead of salt, for example)? Nope, I can’t say I have. I have a tendency to read through EVERYTHING quite a few times before actually doing something. It’s the measure twice, cut once technique.
3. Have you ever dropped, or otherwise ruined, a dish just before serving it? Bonus points if you had a large number of people waiting to eat it. Nope, but again I’ve been cooking since I was 8 years old, naturally I’m going to take great care with things. A chef can have a bad day but you’re never going to see them drop anything!
4. In case you aren’t a cook – Have you ever had a restaurant make a klutzy move that affected your meal? Tell us about it! A waitress one time wound up tripping on her own two feet and spilling soup and soda all over some unsuspecting customer. I love the funny lady’s at IHOP, I really do.
