...the easiest food to make ever! What have you messed up cooking lately?
-
All I was doing was heating up milk this morning and had it boil over all over the stove. -_-
-
No one else has messed up their cooking lately? I'm impressed.

@swedishfish: I burned part of D's bacon this morning (I bake it, and the toaster oven was set too high and I didn't realize it). Still edible, though.
And over the weekend I completely failed at making marshmallow fondant for my niece's birthday cake. I made 3 batches in different colors and the second two came out perfect but the first was like dried out, crumbly play dough, no matter what I did. A problem, since it was to be used to cover a box, not decorations like the other two colors. I ended up having to throw it out and made royal icing instead. Side note: I did learn how to pasteurize eggs.

On a daily basis:/ quinoa is not that easy!!!! At least not for this genius
I've def burnt it before.
-
Not too recent, but my last 2 batches of cinnamon rolls have come out sucky! I don't know what I'm doing wrong!
-
I burned chilli IN THE CROCK POT on Thursday and my husband burned popcorn in the microwave Saturday.
-
QUINOA! TWICE!!! Tonight!
Hahah, That is so weird. I left it for too long because I got distracted. Trashed it and made a second batch and burned that one too. Not my day.

I ruined a dozen boiled eggs last weekend....I was meal prepping for the week and totally forgot about them while doing laundry. I boiled them for over 45 mins
-
I've definitely burned quinoa before.
Last week I was steaming veggies and without me realizing it all the water evaporated and I burnt the pot. What is easier than steaming veggies?
-
@JoJoGirl: what are the odds?!
-
@swedishfish: I just exploded oatmeal in the microwave if that makes you feel better ...
-
@JennyD: I like popcorn a little burnt! Of course it makes the microwave smell like all heck.
-
I burned the crust of the quiche I made yesterday
It wasn't THAT bad so I just told DH that I made it extra crispy!
-
I do quinoa in the rice cooker otherwise i would for sure burn it.
-
@CupQuakeWalk: this was beyond burnt! It was like, cremated!!! Almost set off the smoke detector! It was like -20 (C) and we opened the door!
Also, you might be a little nutty.

A foolproof quinoa option that we've instituted as the standard in our home after DH had a chronic burnage problem -
Instead of the typical pressure cooking simmering rice way, we just put the water and quinoa together, bring it to a boil x 5min, then turn off the burner completely, cover it and let it sit x 15min or so. You'd have to forget you were cooking within the first 5min and leave the house for an hour to burn it.
That said, I often burn butter or garlic because I get distracted while sauteeing and our stovetop doesn't have very subtle temperature control. Did it tonight, in fact.

@ALV91711: oh.... I did that once too, except I was making mass amounts of baby food, and I just kept taking the veggies out as they were done, and not filling the pot underneath. Oops.
