I was finishing a jar of extremely hot peppers (7 pot primos) that I had fermenting on Thanksgiving day. I made a hot sauce with them and cantaloupe. I had them in a pan at a low simmer to meld the flavors. The problem was the steam coming off was potent as hell. It filled the house when everyone was arriving and coughing from the hot sauce in the air, me included. We had to open all the windows, dig out the fans to get it out of the house, freezing everyone in the process.
On the summer camp I cooked there were few as always.
We made halušky (Slovakian national dish) and water didn’t boil enough so first batch was ruined.
Cooking related - we forgot to order bread and noone can deliver it.
One accident with chilly in food.
My whacky experimental oatmeal (it was edible).
