How to salvage food with visible burn marks:
Cookies: - scrape off black parts, frost or dip in chocolate
- fill with frosting and turn into cookie sandwiches
- tell family they're supposed to be that way
Hot dogs: - trim off black parts
- smother with condiments
- tell family they're supposed to be crunchy
Pizza: (if left in oven too long, cheese topping turns dark)
- take off 'sheet of cheese crust', either use as snack or discard.
Sprinkle new cheese on top and bake 5 more minutes.
- say it's supposed to be that way
Cake: - easy. Scrape off, use extra frosting
Meat: - cut off ashy parts, but remainder of meat will be too dry.
Shred it and add bbq sauce or gravy a la Sloppy Joe.
Spareribs: - are best when they're crispy, right before they burn!
Sausage: - off the grill okay to be a little burned
Hamburger patties: - too dry to eat once burned, so use for street hockey pucks
to entertain guests during barbeque
Bottom of pot: - boil water with baking soda for easier cleaning
Any other ideas from my readers?
