I don't use any measurements, I just throw things together, and the rest is experience. :)Gabriele Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205770868139083575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19922276.post-40132701354444375472008-04-28T19:35:00.000+01:002008-04-28T19:35:00.000+01:00I'm definitely a 'season as you go' type of cook. ...I'm definitely a 'season as you go' type of cook. Most recipes are too salty for me, so I omit the salt and cautiously add it back in if needed.<BR/>Downside of new recipes is I have to mail order all my 'foreign' spices. Wyoming isn't exactly a hotbed of culinary ingredients! <BR/><BR/>(Is it me, or are the word verifications getting harder to read?)Constance Brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17964121072645959593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19922276.post-48791842210082232912008-04-27T17:58:00.000+01:002008-04-27T17:58:00.000+01:00Constance - all my recipes are doable, they are al...Constance - all my recipes are doable, they are all things I cook routinely. Thanks for reminding me that I translated the teaspoons but forgot the metric translation for ounces! Have remedied that now. <BR/>One way of testing an unfamiliar recipe is to halve the spice content, then taste it, then add more if you want.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11901028520813891575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19922276.post-57172080357857388292008-04-27T17:11:00.000+01:002008-04-27T17:11:00.000+01:00The recipe sounds wonderful - and doable.
