Recipes or techniques you avoid?

Are there things you know you would like, but something about the process makes you say no? For me:
Involves a food processor or blender
Involves dried peppers
Meat pastries like Wellington
Uncooked pasta in the dish

I agree on this unless it can be accomplished with an immersion blender. So much easier to use and clean.

I would definitely recommend. Cheap, easy to clean and use, and expands kitchen capabilities a decent amount.

Puff pastry and I do not get along.

I use these every week
I don’t really ever make cakes or breads, it’s just not something I really enjoy. My baking consists of biscuits & cornbread, and every year or so I’ll attempt a pizza.

Usually it's when it requires equipment or tools that I don't have.
Yes...this annoys me. Unless you are not planning on having leftovers, it's going to suck the next day as all the pasta will have absorbed a ton of liquid. I've learned to just keep the pasta separate and add what I need for each serving.

Using 16 different seasoning blends in the same recipe.

I guess Indian food is a no go for you.

Seasoning blends. Like these people on social media. “Hit it with that Old Momma Seasoning, then hit it with that Crazy Cowboy Salt free seasoning, then come in with Joe’s Brisket Rub.”

I avoid crockpots to cook in. Now, I will use them to keep chilli or gumbo hot. But to cook a chicken or a roast..... not my thing.

Wellington is terribly overrated. I'd much rather a regular filet.

Don't really fry anything at the house. Too much hassle and makes the house smell like grease. If I want fried foods, I go out for it.

I rarely fry anymore, but if I do, I use the side burner on my Weber for that very reason.

Beef Wellington
my wife has never had it and wants to try it. I just know (or atleast, ive heard) that this is a real pain in the arse dish to make and honestly, doesnt seem worth it.

I mentioned this in the onion ring thread but deep frying is typically something I avoid. If I had a full on outdoor kitchen set up I'd do it more, but in the house is a no no. I have a single burner that I'll use outside, but generally love fried chicken, donuts, etc, but it's just too much of a mess, makes the house stink.
