JenericSupper involved poblano peppers. This involves getting the skins superheated so that they blister with black, such that the skin peels off later after they cool. Unfortunately nothing in our kitchen gets that hot, at least not very easily.
So the oven was used, with a high broil. I did the peppers in a glass casserole dish. Upon taking the dish out, I left it to rest on the range top, which was plenty warm from the oven. Nevertheless, the casserole dish exploded, spraying shards all over the kitchen. I found this upsetting, from the major kitchen clean required, and from the loss of the pan - it has a now orphaned rubber lid.
I know I don't have American/Isreali bombers assisinating my leaders, or neighbouring countries training death squads to commit genocide on my family, but I am upset.
The Nachos were great in the end, the peppers were taken out before the dish explosion.
