    Hi,

    Is there anything you can use to balance out a dish you have added to much cumin too?

    If it is a sauce, I'd dump half of it and start adding liquidy things again.

    Thanks,

    I've already tried that, might have to dump another quarter!

    Was hoping there might be a trick like fixing something too salty by adding a bit of sugar :)

    A bit of goin goes well to blend with it.
    Can't beat some cumin and goin

    It's not the going he's worried about, it's the cumin

    I'm not sure whether this would work with cumin but, if you put too much salt in, adding a whole, peeled potato and keeping the saucepan on the heat removes the salt.. Maybe worth a go?

    Failing that, I'd just increase the quantities of the other ingredients..

    Good luck - and make sure you tell us how you got on ;)

    Thanks Niall, advice was too late for me this time i'm afraid!

    It was a rice, chicken and tomato casserole/stew dealy and it was dreadful, way too overpowering. It was amazing cold the next day though!

    Though I hasten to add, not as amazing as the jokes above!
