Well I intended to post the best possible breakfast imaginable this morning. I had it all worked out. In my dreams last night I came up with the perfect recipe. I had picked up some fresh cherries at a road side stand in Naches Washington last weekend and wanted to use some of them for my post.
I came up with the idea to make Cherry Pancakes. When I got up I was hungry for those pancakes. In my dream they tasted so good I could not wait.I pitted and sliced a bunch of cherries, mixed up some buttermilk pancake mix and added the cherries.
They looked very good and the cherries were still juicy and they smelled great. I cooked up the short stack and sat down to eat.
The taste was much less than spectacular. The combination of the buttermilk pancake mix and the cherries did not combine well at all. The cherries were juicy but had a bitter taste and the pancakes tasted like they were made with bad buttermilk. I tried to feed them to Bo. He took one bite yelped and ran out the door and spent an hour out in the yard licking the ground and growling at me. I tossed them out in the yard for the neighbors chickens to eat. The chickens pecked at it and ran back into the coop. I have not seen them come out yet.
Most of the time my experiments do work out, but every once in a while I come up with one like this. I will have to work on my Cherry Pancake recipe and when I perfect it I will post the corrected recipe here.
Have you ever had a recipe that you worked out go bad? I would like to here about it if you have. Leave a post here or drop me a line on Twitter.
