A quote, a comic and a plan
“I’m going to break one of the rules of the trade here. I’m going to tell you some of the secrets of improvisation. Just remember—it’s always a good idea to follow the directions exactly the first time you try a recipe. But from then on, you’re on your own.” – James Beard
Sometimes, you have to try a recipe to realize how to change it to your liking. I change a lot of what I cook, I look at the original recipe for inspiration, then tweak things from there. Sometimes it’s a small changes, sometimes it’s a drastic change. But I’m always willing to try a new recipe and I hope you will too!
