Yesterday I tried to cook scalloped potatoes. It did not turn out. I was really bummed. In the recipe it said to fry thinly sliced potatoes in a frying pan until golden brown before adding the cheese sauce. When I did this my potatoes stuck to the pan and ended up being potato mush. I learned a very important lesson. Using good equipment is sometimes the most important part of cooking. I decided I am not going to attempt any recipe that requires a frying pan until I get new equipment.
