A regular told me my risotto was 'too soupy' last week and it stung

I mean, I'd been adding stock a half cup at a time for years, but I cut it back to a quarter cup increments now. Anyone else get a piece of feedback that made you totally rethink a basic technique?

Got a review that said my brownies were "aggressively fudgy" once, which honestly felt like a compliment but they meant it as a bad thing. I was so confused I looked up a bunch of videos and realized I was basically making chocolate paste. Changed the whole butter to cocoa powder ratio and now they're just regular fudgy, not like, in a fight with your fork. It's wild how one offhand comment can make you question everything you've ever done.

My grandma's pie crust recipe was a total game changer.

and my grandma's recipe is the only thing keeping me from going full @janab82 and making pie crust that fights back... i tried swapping in butter once and it came out like roofing shingles. guess some things just aren't meant to be messed with, huh.
