(January 9, 2015 at 7:00 am)whateverist Wrote: I find cooking to be a creative endeavor. If I'm trying something new I'll generally scan through a few favorite recipes online and then think about what we have on hand (unless I have time to shop) and then toss in or leave out to suit myself.
The wife is always telling me to write down recipes but I can't imagine why. She wouldn't cook and I wouldn't follow it anyway.
That perfectly resembles my approach to cooking. I've had the experience that slavishly following instructions can lead to desaster anyways, and keeping a creative intuitive attitude is better. The variability of ingredients and equipment is too great.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
