Here’s the thing about cooking

November 15th, 2009 by admin Leave a reply »

It really doesn’t matter what you intended to create, or how wrong you went. You can usually salvage something. I recently had to rescue a shrimp dish (not designed by me) that came out a little off. That is, the dish’s designer said about the initial product: “We can’t feed this to people.”

Now, I don’t know if he was implying that the dish was suitable for dogs (it wasn’t – they can’t peel shrimp on account of not having thumbs), or if he meant that we should throw it away. What I said was: “We can rebuild it; we have the technology.”

The technology was 15 minutes of peeling shrimp, plus sweet chili sauce. The result was a room full of pleased people, who will never know the truth (unless they read my blog, that is).

Now, salvaging mediocre blog posts is another story…
