Let me start this by saying that I love my husband dearly, and he's doing so much while I'm out of action after my surgery - taking the month off work, cooking, cleaning, shopping, and even doing things I can't do like wash my own hair.
He's not the most natural of cooks though... Tonight he decided to make my favourite - a hearty beef stew with my favourite recipe. It was all going so well, and he put a heap of extra veggies in, and it all tasted fantastic. Until.... right before he was getting ready to serve it (it'd been cooking for about 3 hours), he decided to put GARLIC into it!!!! Not only garlic, but a huge spoonful of raw garlic
I love my garlic, but not raw in something with such delicate, particular flavours.
It made it so nauseating I couldn't eat it. He looked so disappointed when I said I couldn't finish it. I felt like such an ungrateful cow given all he's done for me! I ended up saying it was still my taste buds doing funny things... In each mouthful I kept getting raw minced garlic.
Poor guy, he's trying so hard.
Has anyone managed to disappoint with your favourite recipe?
