Ingredients

June 10, 2005 8:45 am General

So it always intrigues me about recipe books, having seen Jamin’s post [and nothing against his recipe that he just posted], that all the recipes have exact proportions. It’s like 1/4 teaspoon of this, or 1 cup of that, or 300g of those. Fuck me. Cooking should be about imagination. I want recipe books to say the ingredients are ‘rice, olive oil, sherry, garlic…go play!’ and even then, being able to substitute ingregients for what you’ve got in the cupboards is the real skill.
