What is the saying?
First time shame on you
Second time shame on me
Third time you're an f*ing moron
I may have paraphrased a bit there. Tonight I decided to bake. I looked at the recipe and thought, hmmm I have most of that. I went to the store and bought the stuff I didn't. Well I may have made a few modifications. Half and Half can replace Heavy Cream, yes? Brown sugar (a bit hard) can replace regular sugar right? And some of the instructions didn't make sense. Cut the butter into a coarse meal?? No idea.
I took all of this and made my blackberry cobbler. Waste of time. It tastes like CRAP. I'm sure my substitutions had something to do with it but some of the more complex language (metal blades??) really killed the process.
I doubt I could have made myself sick with this little experiment but we all know it's happened before.
I think you can replace in cooking but not really in baking. Baking is pretty precise... Love you..
