Food critic

Today I was going to make some good food, I thought. Sort of hamburger meat and mashed potato. The recipe looked tasty, and we like the home made mashed potato, so I got to it. Let me give you the recipe (found on the internet).

  • 500g minced meat
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons of potato starch (what?!)
  • 2 tablespoons of water
  • 2 tablespoons of lingonberry jam*
  • Salt
  • Pepper
* If you don't know what lingonberry jam and drink tastes like, go to your nearest IKEA.

And now, forget the recipe. Forever. I mean it.
It tasted like moose piss. This was the worst recipe ever, from a moron that should be forced to eat this every day of his/her life.
Everyone that have ever made hamburgers or similar at home, knows that you use some kind of dried, baked breadcrumbs. Potato starch is for sauces. Contrary to what I shoud have done (adding bread) I went for the recipe, and I ended up with something that would make pudding feel solid like a brick. It did improve when fried, but not the taste.

The mashed potato then? Something went wrong there too, no treat there either.

So we ordered pizza. Portofino in Lund was a great place 6 years ago, with the most tasty and beautiful pizzas. Was is the correct word. It's been a long time since I had pizza this worthless. It didn't even have the decency to taste bad. It was just annoyingly tasteless.

Tomorrow I'm going to my hairdresser, and then I'm making pancakes. THAT I'm truly good at. :) Even got Nutella, an absolute must.

Anyway, at least I bought some beer today for the days to come, as it's going to be 15C this weekend, and relaxing in the garden may be nicer with a chilled drink. If only we could find the bolts and nuts for our garden furniture! :/
