that the identical recipe will taste like crap, the next time you make it?

salonfleur, is there a particular recipe that you have a problem with?Depending on what "the identical recipe" is for, it could be that weather conditions (hot/warm/cold and/or humidity) have a significant effect on the end result or the ingredients used to make the ????e.g. bread making can be significantly affected by weather conditions that affect the flour as well as the yeast and its performance.:-))

The first time you make it you are really careful to weigh and measure and count...and the second time you toss things together??
That's happened to me ;)

I have that problem when I make anzac biscuits. Same recipe each time but sometimes they are great and sometimes little rocks lol :)

Had to giggle a little here to myself, a few times one would try a new recipe and to me personally would be missing something or did not quite come out how one sees it so hand it on to others to try and noted that a slight "Balls up" (please excused this term) then redo the recipe and comes out (to me anyway) more like the actual recipe only to note that from others whom had tried the first lot stating that they preferred the first one hence quite often now - I get requests for my "Balls Up" ones....LOL, has this happened to anyone else.
Cheers.

Had a laugh at your post,valentino, because my children always used to request chewy biscuits and try as I did, they were always crisp ;)

Yeah, but the best way around this is too slightly undercook them by a couple of minutes, very little time in it.
My son for example would (especially with the Subway- like cookies) would give his lot a wee zap in the microwave just to get that soft slightly chewy taste with a slight warmth. Sometimes he may put a wee dollop of cream or a nice fruity jam on top as well, that is simply him.
Cheers.

what sort of oven do you have? I have used a fan bake oven for years & theyr'e great but I would have to say I can 2-3 trays at a time. 3/4s of the way thru cooking I change the order of the trays around, like bottom to middle, middle to top & top to bottom, alos anzacs are cooked in a moderateoven anyway here's a recipe I have used for years & lawyas reliable Anzac Biscuits
