It's painful seeing her spill food like that. You don't need to toss it much with home burners.

I think we've all done things like that. The secret is to just toss it gently the first times - which I guess you only learn from experience and cleaning up the mess you've made.

Reader-added tags include "Kogasanecdote", "Happens a lot", and "※Reimu-san finished off the dropped rice afterward". (Parody of the standard "no food was wasted" boilerplate on Japanese cooking shows and the like.)

I actually had quite a bit of trouble with this when I first started cooking a few years back so I haven't bothered practicing it at all, but when I had to do it not too long ago it just magically worked. Probably overall experience with the pan

In Britain there used to be a tradition of pancakes on Shrove Tuesday *, and many advertising cartoons of happy housewives tossing the slippery cake up from the frying pan to catch it on it's other side.

I have never seen this done in real life.

I'm trying to get better with home cooking myself, mostly been helping out my parents making dinner and it has been going well with me combining all the ingredients together and making them perfect but I am really nervous when it comes to using the oven or the frying pan over the cooking hobs because I don't want to be burnt, so I can relate to Kogasa here.

Just keep a fire extinguisher next to you. Then the worse thing that could happen is that you burn your meal, not your kitchen
