Reposted by @writerpat.bsky.socialAnnie, as ever @annieasever.bsky.social · 06/01/2025A lot of recipes have lists of ingredients that say, "x amount of thinly sliced onion", "y amount of chopped celery" etc, and the "total time" starts from there, so it doesn't include the time you have to spend slicing & chopping. I also find, drinking wine while cooking tends to slow it all down 😁 2291
