I can't cook but in reaction to it I try to minimise the difficulty of the recipe when I have to. Besides a good stomach also helps.
My worst mistake was using a quarter bottle of amaretto instead of just a few sips when making tiramisu. But I don't regard adding to much alcohol to a desert as a mistake.

There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

...to wear clothes when cooking with lots of oil is a good idea.

Remember to read the recipe properly, adding 6 tablespoons of salt to pancakes because you read the amount of baking powder required for the recipe instead of the amount of salt required still screws up yur pancakes even if you dump sugar into them afterwards.

Today I learned potatoes have to be in boiling water for about 20 minutes.
Should I start my own restaurant now?
"The Boiled Potatoe"
On the menu today:
Starter:
- two boiled potatoes;
Main Course:
- three boiled potatoes;
Dessert:
- one boiled potatoe.
At least worth a 3 Michelin-star rating...

Never tip any spice or herb containing jar over your dish if you are unsure whether this is a sieve-like lid on the top to stop everything falling in your dish. Something which I did forget when I was making a soup when I was eight, and proceeded to tip the whole contents of a jar of dried basil into the soup, which my mum promptly had to fish out with a tea strainer.
