My cooking tragedies
I once burned mango chutney and had the bright idea to discard the burnt, boiling hot chutney down the toilet. It solidified in the toilet and cracked the bowl - a dumb, expensive mistake.

Russian Mushroom and Potato Soup
This is brilliant. I couldn't find leeks at a reasonable price ($5.29/lb is not reasonable) so I substituted garlic and celery, but even then it was delicious! Highly recommended.

Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread
Three stars because it's far too sweet for me - I felt like scraping my mouth out after trying it. It is a good recipe IF you cut the sugar in half or less - 1/4 cup worked for me.

D's Famous Salsa
I like this recipe, but I'd suggest using actual cheap fresh jalapeƱos rather than the massively, ridiculously mega-overpriced canned version. They're $3.29 for a tiny can here while fresh jalapenos are 49 cents a pound.
