Close Marks
[quote=Anonymous]Depends on a few factors: • how close the people are to me (I can use my mother as a Guinea pig, less so relatives visiting from out of town) • how formal/important the occasion is (if it’s a random Saturday night dinner with a couple of friends, that’s one thing, if it’s Christmas Eve for 15 that’s different) • how much I trust the recipe source (something from Ina Garten or Southern Living or the NYT I trust more than a random blogger recipe) • how familiar I am with the technique/cooking style, if not the actual recipe (e.g. I’ve made ~20 fondues so I’m comfortable with fondue in general. I’ve never made ceviche so I’m not going to “wing it” for company. [/quote]
