Cooking with Children

12 October, 2010
Posted in: Boys, Daniel

The other day I made ginger nuts with the children. This is a very easy and, hitherto, failsafe recipe.

Because our kitchen is somewhat smaller than your kitchen table, I brought the bowls and ingredients into the other room and sat the children around the table to weigh them out. I left Daniel creaming in the butter while I went into the kitchen to get the golden syrup.

The texture was a bit odd when I added the golden syrup but I chucked the biscuits into the oven happily enough. That evening when my brother came around, I offered him one, “Are they undercooked or something?” he asked. I tried one myself, they were utterly vile.

Close cross-questioning of the children revealed that Daniel had eaten the butter.
