[quote=Anonymous]My suggestion is to reduce the number of from scratch recipes and focus on ne thing until you’ve got it. 1. It’s always dicey to expect something to turn out when you make it for the first time for an event. You should make these dishes a few times throughout the year to understand what works and doesn’t. 2. Recipes are evil. People can’t cook because recipes focus on ingredients not techniques. Heat, timing, salt, fat and acid are all really important. Heat is really tricky and makes a difference depending on your pans and appliances. Restaurants use far more fat and salt t get the great taste than recipes usually tell you to use. 3. Whenever I make something new, I always Google fails or troubleshooting. These ages will give you a run down on what can go wrong with a pie r turkey and insight into techniques. 4. Read the notes or comments on recipe sites. I’m amazed at how many people will give a recipe five stars but in their comment share that they changed five things. [/quote]
