Things not to forget when cooking

Curly Sue said:

- when making ramen, don't drain like spaghetti. You need
the hot water for the soup.

- when making pancakes, put oil on the grill before
pouring on the pancake batter.

I've been distracted this week!

Take the plastic *off* the frozen pizza.

Oh behalf of my Sis (she knows who she is) remove the
plastic from the canned ham prior to baking.

Hey! It was invisible! and why bother with the can and the
key if it's in plastic anyway!

When doing the laundry, put the coins in the same machine
the clothes went into. Imagine my surprise when I started to
unload the machine and all the clothes were dry.

(Why the heck is the coin slide for the adjacent machine so
close -- they could put it in the center or something.)

True... the first time I took canned crab meat out of the
can I was like... hmm, this is funny. Didn't realize it was
paper. DUH (laugh)

I don't make ramen into soup. I boil the noodles in plain
water adding (or not) emblishments, drain briefly, dump
into a bowl, sprinkle about half the 'seasoning' packet
over, and mix well.

Oh, and when you have a salad-spinner with drain holes
in the outside container, spin it in the sink, not on
the counter.

Don't forget to turn off the broccoli! Burnt broccoli is not
something you wanna mess with.

Best regards, Bob

One should not place the dirty laundry in the refrigerator
while pulling out eggs for breakfast.

Don't put some cold soup on a hot plate for reheating, close
the kitchen-door and begin to read something interesting,
forget about the soup, and then go shopping. Once soup has
been reduced to coal, there's *nothing* you can do to save
the pot; plus it takes hours to get the ventilation, and the
entire kitchen, to stop smelling so badly.

If it's a stainless steel pot, lye and warm water will save
it. Don't ask me how I know.

LOL... Don't forget to turn on the outdoor grill. Yep, I
just couldn't figure out why nothing was cooking.

Don't forget to take last night's dripping broiler pan out
of the oven before preheating it. I did this once and went
to take a shower. I was living at home and in high school.
Mom was way [censored] about having to paint the kitchen and
replace the drapes. 2 weeks after the remodel she did the
same thing and burned the kitchen down. It wasn't all bad,
she got a new kitchen and never again was a broiler pan
left dirty.

Use the proper tools. Don't use the two-prong cooking fork
as an awl or other device to hack away at a petrified powder
product. Picture is on my webpage. Let the record reflect
that I've thrown away the petrified caramel powder and have
purchased a brand new bottle of Kitchen Bouquet.

No. I'm about to use it in this house myself.

Never leave the kitchen, even for two minutes, with 4
shell steaks on the counter until you have the Siberian

Huh? Not me, never...(the paper ones don't really mess up
the chicken, but those plastic ones do)
