The sauce was a bit too salty for my taste. Next time I will use less salt.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for a weeknight meal. I think I'll try it again on a weekend when I have more time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sauce turned out a little too tangy for my taste. Next time I will add a bit more honey to balance it out.
