Рецепт Measuring spoons: like or dislike?
Welcome to Like or Dislike, where you get to share how you really feel about ingredients from the pantry, ingredients I'm thinking about adding to my pantry, other seasonal foods, and favorite cooking gear. The things you like are sure to find their way to the recipes here on The Perfect Pantry, so do tell.
If you're a baker, you probably think this week's Like or Dislike is a no-brainer. After all, how can you bake without measuring? For me, a notorious bake-o-phobe, measuring feels confining rather than comforting. When I cook, I seldom reach for measuring spoons, unless I'm creating a recipe for this blog, because I want you to be able to recreate that recipe pretty much as I made it. I prefer the free-form method of measuring -- using the palm of my hand -- for most things. Except when I bake. One tip, if you do use measuring spoons: see how I have them loose, in a mug? Take your spoons off the little connecting rings, and pile them into a container. So much easier to pull out when you need one. So, how do you feel about measuring in general, and about measuring spoons?
Measuring spoons: like or dislike?
Last week: cilantro. The middle of the road was a quiet place, as most people shared strong opinions for or against. Love it! Hate it! And a few readers admitted to changing their feelings about cilantro over the years. And now you know how I feel about cilantro. Don't worry, though; cilantro will not be banned from The Perfect Pantry, simply because it tastes like soap to me.
