Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how’s it going?

Also applies to garlic. 1 or 2 cloves? Throw half a bulb in. And go to an asian supermarket and get a big bag of MSG. Makes so many dishes better.

We have a recipe that calls for half of a clove of garlic. What is this, a recipe for vampires? If I'm making a dish big enough to feed multiple people, there is no way half a clove will get you anywhere near close to the right amount.

Haha! How many is the recipe supposed to serve?

Hmm I'm not at home right now. We got it from someone else but I think it was originally a Bargain Box recipe. Probably was designed for 2 or 3 people.

My assumption is they designed a 6 person recipe, then just halved it for the smaller size.

Even so.. a single clove of garlic for 6 people?? I'm imagining portioning out a clove into six slices for each person.. they must not like flavour 😂

It's crazy! If you don't like garlic don't put it in! None of this half a clove nonsense.
