I was making a big linguine dinner drunk and naked once and had the bright idea to pan fry the sauce together with the vegetables I was going to put over the pasta. Unfortunately it was a whole jar of pretty decent basil pesto with pine nuts and I ended up with dozens of tiny burns on my arms, chest and face, and hundreds of speckle stains all over the kitchen. Wasn't too terribly bad but it was several years ago and I still find little green spots in corners from time to time which remind me not to fry nuts and seeds. Still tasted pretty good though.

I haven't done a great deal of stupid things in the kitchen. The one that comes to mind is when doing a reverse seared ribeye I took it out, looked at the metal thermometer inserted into it and when I saw that it was just right I just pulled the thermometer out with my bare hands without thinking.

great stuff!

The strong flavor of garlic is a chemical it releases when damaged, such as cutting or crushing. once cooked the garlic is dead and can not produce this chemical or the strong flavor.

So use the press when you want it strong and use it whole when you want it mild, and you got a whole spectrum in between!

I work with different kinds of metal and ... well, that's a really boring story, ... I just wanted to say the percentage of kitchenware that will cause a spark in a microwave is a lot lower than safety warnings want you to believe. The science is pretty basic, and you can pretty much guess what is going to explode and what's not once you understand what to look for. They just don't teach it to you because it's easier to say "Just don't do it" ... like abstinence.

There's no way you could put pasta in room temp water and not overcook it using a normal stovetop.

More likely to hurt yourself with a blunt knife than a sharp one.

One time I made some piping hot potato and green chile soup so I poured myself a bowl and as I was walking to the other side of the kitchen a little bit tipped onto my hands which caused me to jerk it the opposite direction spilling more and long story short I managed to sling potato soup from the floor to the ceiling and get second degree burns on my hands.

That sounds fun af. I'd probably cook a lot more pasta doing something like that.

put the coffee mug on a pan on the stovetop to reheat it. I was a little kid so.
