KITCHEN PRACTICE 3 — Practicing a Safe Pour
==================================================
Chapter: Mexican Cookery 6 — Building a Salsa: Blend, Then Fry

TASK
----
Practice pouring blended puree into hot oil carefully, observing the
real spattering behaviour and using a splatter guard or slow,
careful pouring to manage it safely.

WHAT TO DO
----------
1. Heat a modest amount of oil in a pan until hot.
2. Blend a small test batch of puree (even just tomato and onion is
   fine for this exercise).
3. Standing back slightly, pour a small amount of the puree into the
   hot oil first, and observe how it spatters.
4. If you have one, hold a splatter guard over the pan while adding
   the rest, or pour the remainder slowly in small amounts rather
   than all at once.
5. Note which approach felt safer and more controlled.

WHAT TO EXPECT
--------------
- The first small pour should spatter noticeably more than adding
  solid, chopped ingredients would.
- Pouring slowly, in smaller amounts, or using a splatter guard
  should visibly reduce how much oil escapes the pan.
- Standing back initially should feel like a genuinely sensible
  precaution once you see how the puree reacts to the hot oil.

WHY THIS WORKS AS AN ANSWER
----------------------------
This exercise treats the chapter's own safety warning as a real,
practiced skill rather than just a line to read past — building real
comfort with a genuinely different (and riskier) pouring motion than
anything else in this course so far.
