Recipe for disaster: Vietnam embraces kitchen nightmares in COVID19 lockdown

Bookmark

With half the world in lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, masterchefs-in-the-making across the globe have been posting snapshots on social media of their perfect sourdough and gorgeously gooey brownies as they while away the hours in the kitchen.But in Vietnam, Dinh Duc Thanh, founder of the Facebook group, decided the world's would-be bakers could benefit from a grain of truth.

Thanh started the group last week, and its membership has risen fast - boasting more than 800,000 people by Thursday .Some have shared pictures of smouldering pans and congealed black lumps in pots. Others have posted snaps of unhappy children refusing to eat what their parents have cooked.During the pandemic,"suddenly one has to cook three meals a day, clean the house with the kids at home making things a mess ... there will be more accidents," Thanh told AFP.

Fellow group member Huynh Nguyen Hoang Quyen appeared to have been struggling in the kitchen too, posting a picture of a green-tinged cake that had collapsed in on itself."Normally I am quite confident in my housework ability but I cannot explain how it happened."
