Default Pinch o' This, Dash o' That PROTEST.

I'm pretty much a "by the recipe" cook. Got my measuring cups and spoons
always within reach.

Sometimes though the recipe just seems off kilter. Take 2 pounds of this, 3
cups of that, 2 of this diced veggie and other stuff, it calls for a pinch of
freshly ground pepper.

Like, HUH???

Even my dear departed Grandmas would say so.

THE TIME IS RIGHT to abolish pinches, drops, dashes, etc. in recipes. Just
might as well leave them out of the recipe OR at least double up.

Write your congressman/congresswoman.
