Adding chilli oil
I said fuck up, not improve.
Not following it.
Close second, too much salt.
Or not enough sat.
I got an office job, I always have enough sat.
too much salt
I made a rookie mistake after ~2 years or so of not making it and still don’t understand how I forgot it:
- Pressure cooked gram in salt water
- Took out a few pieces of gram to taste
- sans salt water
- “too less salt”
- added more salt to the boiled water before using it in gravy.

Swap Sugar and Salt, or any swap of Soy, Oil, vinegar/citrus or Bitter spices. Oh, and Dairy/Eggs, or Bacon Bits, Raisins. Assuming you’re not baking, because ovens and fryers are magic, apperently.
Follow Akane on Ranma 1/2, seasons 1 2 or 3, for more tips and tricks.
In many recipes, they call for adding a pinch of something - asafoetida, cardamom powder etc. Just add a teaspoon or two of that.
swap baking soda and baking powder
Every time you add ingredients, add spoiled milk. Cook everything for 10 minutes longer than prescribed.
Not reading comments. How many times I find gold in there like “there’s no way this only took 30 min in the oven I needed 1 hr” or “there was way too much sugar so I scaled back”. I ALWAYS read the comments on a recipe I’m checking out, and if I see enough of a commonality, I listen!
Bold of you to assume I get past the author’s life story prelude.
“This time of year always takes me back to the days of my youth with my grandmother…”. JFC just jump to recipe already!
Substitute an ingredient with shit
When you start cooking/frying/baking and walk away from the kitchen to go on your phone/go online/read/watch TV … you increase the chances of burning, overcooking or setting fire to your kitchen.
When you are cooking, you budget your whole time to stay in the kitchen. If your food is cooking / baking / frying and it has to heat while you do nothing … you do the dishes, tidy up, clean the kitchen, put things away or prepare the next step of the recipe or prepare another dish … you don’t stop working in the kitchen and you don’t leave the kitchen because you have to keep an eye on your food as it cooks. Sometimes even when you follow a recipe, things boil over, things spill, steam builds up or something gets knocked over. You have to stay in the kitchen.
I worked with my mom who worked at a hospital kitchen for a few years and then I worked with her in running a family run burger and fry place. We aren’t gourmet cooks but she taught me all the basics of working in a kitchen. You never stop.
If you aren’t cooking, you’re cleaning, if you’re not cleaning, you’re cooking … if you are not cooking or cleaning - get out of the kitchen so you don’t bother the person cooking and cleaning in there.
