I found a recipe similar to this online today, and had the best hours of laughing at the reviews. It became even funnier when I called my hubby and told him about it, he reminded me of my little sister's first official dinner cooked for her mother-In-law. (A great story I will included on my ME page later. Ingredients:
4 cups water |
4 teaspoons salt |
Directions:
1. Measure water into a pan that has a tight fitting lid, cover and turn on high.
2. When water begins to boil - add salt, cover and return lid giving just a moment or two to return to a full rolling boil.
3. Proceed with whatever recipe you have that says cook in boiling salted water .
4. Adjust water amounts according to amount of your recipe yield, keeping the water/salt ratio of 1 tsp salt to 1 cup water.
5. TIPS:.
6. Placing a lid on pan will help water to boil faster.
7. ALWAYS add salt AFTER the water is boiling to prevent pitting of your pans, which can ruin a pan forever.
8. NOTE:.
9. After reading my first review,.
10. I do want to explain I am NOT in ANYWAY picking fun at new cooks, everyone starts somewhere. The humor I found in the recipe listing at another site is the reviews so many people wrote in reply to reading the recipe. 736 reviews! Almost 90% are written in a good cooks humor. When I was done reading all I could handle, my sides ached, my cheeks were wet with tears of insane laughter, and I had called long distance to 2 sisters, making them listen! At the risk of being hit by the large Zaar spoon, I will just say the other recipe site starts with an E. (Please note: that is the only recipe I suggest for reading there! And 'Zaar is the ONLY www. site that I have a paid membership!) :).
