    When putting a big pan of water on to boil, make sure you turn on the
    hob under the pan, not the one under the discarded lid.

    Otherwise, when you pop downstairs to see what's causing that horrible
    pong, it will be the fumes emanating from the cherry red saucepan lid,
    and the smoking handle.

    Furthermore, one's spouse will use their crafty wiles to attempt to
    apportion blame in one's direction.

    You have been warned.

    Tricky coves overheated pans. Google poly fume fever. Nothing to do with
    parrots although strangely also relevant.

  4. Also:
    a) Don't accidentally turn on the electric hob with the Pyrex casserole lid
    resting on it, rather than the oven to preheat it, otherwise you'll be
    collecting little pellets of glass from all over the kitchen and beyond
    when it finally goes "ping!".
    b) Don't do the same but with the box of frozen pizza you're going to cook
    resting on the bare electric element -- don't 'alf make a pong...

    still under it.

    No need to panic. Lethal toxicity strictly for the birds usually. Do
    remember a case we investigated of a flock of sparrows falling from the
    sky after flying through the plume from a steel coil coating process
    though.

    and don't do what my SO did, which was to put some breaded raw chicken
    in the dual grill/oven for 40 minutes. On *grill*.

    Mmmmmm - burnt to a crisp on one side, raw on the other - tasty! Thank
    **** for extractor fans, mind.

    If we're doing kitchen calamities....

    When making a nice Chinese beef stir-fry, check which bottle you've
    just seized from the fridge, because it may not be the nice black bean
    sauce (purchased from Wing Yip) that you've just splashed into your
    wok, but the Nestle chocolate sauce which your daughter bought to pour
    over her ice cream.

  12. Top tip. When frying using spray on frying oil, and the oil looks
    exactly like the bottle for animal cage disinfectant, don't leave the
    two next to each other on the kitchen top.

    Mole.

    I've had chicken mole but never seen it with beef. This doesn't mean
    they don't do it, obviously.
