What Are the Common Mistakes to Avoid in the Kitchen?
While we all agree that these cooking fails in our article are beyond hilarious, sometimes (well, most of the time), we’d wish to avoid them when preparing a nice dinner for ourselves. Surely, these funny cooking fails are also partly magic and are not influenced by any reasonable actions, but we found some tips on how to avoid the common mistakes in the kitchen that might be useful to you:
Read the recipe thoroughly. This might sound like something Captain Obvious would advise, but admit it: There probably have been instances when you neglected to read the full instructions and ended up with a bona fide cooking fails.
Don’t overcrowd the pan. Striving to cook everything all at once might seem like a stellar idea, but overcrowding might lead to some pieces burning and others staying pretty much raw.
Try to find the balance in seasonings. Underseasoning might be the lesser evil here since you can season a bit more once you’re done, but overseasoning might ruin the beautiful taste you were hoping for. Again, reading the recipe might help here!
Avoid opening the oven door too often. We get it—it’s beautiful to watch a cake bake or the cheese on the pizza melt and bubble. However, opening the oven door too often might cause the temperature inside to fluctuate, which might affect the cooking process. This, in turn, might be responsible for some pretty hilarious cooking fails.
Of course, there are plenty more useful things to know before you start cooking your delectable meal, but these are a good starting point. For now, though, let’s go back to our selection of cooking fails and memes to satiate our need for laughter!

I don't really cook myself. The biggest fail that ever happened to me was when I made eggs with sugar instead of salt
