Unacceptable

So I tried to make some cheesy cauliflower dish for dinner. It did not work out as planned: much closer to edible than palatable.

Whenever a recipe says to do stuff up in a saucepan, invariably, invariably, I will get out a frying pan instead. I don’t know why this is, but no matter how many times I call myself a dum-dum, I cannot get this right and end up either trying to add 3/4 pint of milk to a miniature frying pan or dirtying every pot in the kitchen.

So there I was, using this ridiculously non-American recipe I found online, and it called for 1 oz/25 gram of flour.

I’m sorry; what? What does that even mean? Is that like a foot of flour? A decibel of flour? Perhaps a megapixel of flour?

I can barely cook in English, people.

    Good story. Noted.

    I told Stephan that I would never make him eat it again and he said, “I’ll believe that one when I’m dead.”
