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.
Ah, you cook the way I do. I think of myself as a "method" cook. I know a number of techniques well, and I have general ideas about spices. I look at what I've got, and put that knowledge to work.
Unlike you I occasionally write stuff down. Having made up a chocolate dessert souffle, I wanted to have it again.
I mess with baking less though. It's closer to chemistry.
Yeah, we don't bake. That I would write down if I did. But then we'd just turn around and eat it. We both have a sweet tooth from hell.
