Ever had one of those days where everything went sideways? Last week, I forgot to check the stew while prepping for a dinner service, and it went from a rich aroma to a smoke alarm symphony in no time. The diners had a good laugh, and I learned to invest in a better alarm system – because some kitchen mishaps are just too epic not to share.
, I totally relate — nothing like a stew going from ‘aroma to a smoke alarm symphony in no time’ to ruin a dinner! I’ve found setting a timer helps a ton, especially during busy service. Do you think a better alarm system or just a timer would’ve saved the day?
I’ve had my fair share of burnt dinners too — last month, I mistook baking soda for baking powder in a cake, and let’s just say it was more like a science experiment! Setting a timer is definitely key, but I’d also suggest keeping a close eye on those stews; they can sneak up on you when you least expect it. What’s your go-to dish that usually saves the day?
