When preparing a special dish for a gathering, whether it be appetizers for a super bowl party, or special dessert for family gathering?
Do you use "store-bought" ingredients (such as a cake mix, prepared dip, or pie crusts) and claim your dish is "homemade"?
I was just watching something on a cooking channel where a team used a store bought pie crust for their "homemade dessert". Hmmmm... not quite, or... is it?
Or would you think, yeah ... as long as I baked it, it is homemade?
I always prepare my special treats from scratch. Taking a dish to a party/gathering is a treat for me, as well as the other guests. I want them to have a taste of something special, not something they can buy at the store.
Just wondering. What are your thoughts?
