| I like #7 "...and sometimes they're just plain gross."
~~~Take the Red Bean Beach Salad that Ingrid Hoffmann made on the beach-picnic episode of "Simply Delicioso," for example. Users' reviews on the FoodNetwork.com's recipe board slammed the dish for its strange, unappetizing combination of beans and sweet pickles. (We're serious.) "Yuk! It is beyond nasty," posted "Leah" from Philadelphia. (A spokesperson for Hoffmann declined to comment.)
Obviously, it's not fair to condemn a cook for a single dish, especially one she makes on-air. But before attempting a recipe you've seen on television, do your homework. "If it's from a trained chef like Bobby Flay, you're in safe hands," says Gordon.~~~
To Ingrid... OUCH. |
