Martha vs. Maxine

Martha's Way

If you accidentally oversalt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant "fix-me-up."

Maxine's Way

If you oversalt a dish while you are cooking, that's too bad. Please recite with me the real woman's motto: "I made it and you! will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes!"
