It’s often said that cooking is an art, while baking is a science. But in both of these cases, it doesn’t mean that you can add chaotic things into the mix and think that everything will magically work out for you. If you’re relying on luck instead of logic or the recipe, you’re going to have a bad time.
‘I Didn’t Have Eggs’ is a fascinating and funny subreddit that shares negative reviews by people who cannot follow recipes and then complain that the dish is bad. Very often, they substitute essential ingredients for wildly different ones or choose cheaper products instead of high-quality ones. Scroll down to confirm that following even simple recipes is an insurmountable challenge for some amateur chefs.

I want to make this steak tartare recipe but I'm vegan, what do you recommend as replacements for the beef and egg yolk? Also I can't eat salt and I don't like the recommendations for spices, they're much to strong for my taste. I would give this no stars it I could. ⭐

As someone who is a relatively recently diagnosed celiac disease patient, I have definitely had some struggles with changing family recipes to be gluten and dairy free. This sounds like some of my early baking fails until I figured it out.

Load More Replies...I made chocolate chip cookies but to make them healthy, I subbed espresso beans for the chips, milk for the butter and water for the flour and other ingredients. Then I pulverized the coffee beans and soaked them in water. they were awful cookies but good coffee.
