so...anyone here make up their own recipes?
ive been trying, and failing to make that dish that is just *so* good that you cant stop eating it. so far the closest ive come is a squid/oyster/shrimp/octopus/crab gumbo that is a variation of a 'normal' recipe of gumbo that uses chicken and sausage. problem with it is that it seems to come out slightly different every time i make it; and though it has almost got that you cant stop eating it quality, its just not quite there. i duno how to adjust it since to me, i cant really detect slight changes in flavor that adding say a dash extra of spice X or whatnot. heck, i usually cant even say just what a flavor that im detecting is |

Every time I cook, it's an experiment...

Maybe that's because I never follow recipes. I just ask myself what I would like to eat today and throw everything together in a pan. And I'm still alive.

I normally don't cook from recipes either. I've had a few dishes that turned out exceptionally well but I don't think there *is* such a thing as a dish that you cannot stop eating, LOL. Well, unless you do it the Roman way - once you're full, err... create extra room by getting rid of the already eaten food... [img]graemlins/1puke.gif[/img]

Honey-teriyaki or buffalo chicken fingers! Making sauces isn't too hard, as long as you taste test and remember what you did!

Now I know why my cooking tastes different every single time. Luckily I don't get complaints about it from my dinner guests. Apparantly they like it.
