you can only cook "by ear" or get every quarter-teaspoon's worth of ingredients exactly accurate, there is no middle ground and there is no range of cases where one approach or the other makes more sense.

keyboard vomit posted:if i'm cooking a pork shoulder i just throw stuff into the pot and cook that poo poo without once using a measuring device and i'm sure sometimes it turns out fantastic. and other times it's just 'meh,' but because of your lack of rigor, you have no idea why take notes develop a procedure talk to people about what worked and didn't work knowing how to braise a pork shoulder (technique) does not mean you have a magic ability to guesstimate the appropriate seasoning. a bouquet garni of "all the poo poo from the crisper" doesn't make the magic fritz posted:whats the fun in that yeah this is the fantasy. it's bullshit. when you come up with a recipe from scratch based on what you have on hand, it's either extremely simple (meat and potatoes) or it's dumb loving luck would you try to fix a car with leftover parts in your toolbox? would you a frame a house with the random scraps of lumber remaining from your last project? for some reason cooking is supposed to be wizardry, creating something from nothing while flying by the seat of your pants. in all other crafts, people expect you to plan ahead, choose inputs appropriately, and measure twice / cut once.

since this thread is about food and kickstarters, I had an idea what if yospos found a deserving kickstarter to fund, perhaps someone who wanted to open a restaurant in a rural area but has no chance without the support of an internet forum like yospos? don't you think that would be a worthwhile endeavor? i'm even willing to give up buying my daughter christmas presents to donate to this. she's ok with it, she's 8 months old and will understand

Notorious b.s.d. posted:yeah this is the fantasy. it's bullshit. when you come up with a recipe from scratch based on what you have on hand, it's either extremely simple (meat and potatoes) or it's dumb loving luck last night i decided i wanted to make spinach calzones, so i defrosted a pack of dough and a box of spinach, then this evening i took the spinach out, squeezed out the water, fried it in olive oil with some onions and mushrooms, meanwhile i halved the dough and rolled the pieces out into triangles when the vegetables were done cooking i added a little basil and oregano, spooned in a couple spoonfuls of ricotta and mixed in some grated jarlsberg (because we had it handy), then scooped it in the triangles, sealed them up, put them on a baking sheet, and cooked @ 450 for 15 minutes (these ##s were from the dough bag, my original plan was 400 degrees for 20 minutes, which would probably have worked just about as well) at no point in this process was there a recipe involved beyond 'hey i have a rough idea how calzones are made' , the only measured ingredients were the spinach, b/c it came in a 10oz box, and the dough b/c it came frozen in a bag here's another meal i made a couple weeks ago without aid of recipe. fry up a bunch of onions and a lot of garlic, like an entire chopped head, in butter until soft, add a can of chickpeas and some chopped tomatoes, along with some cumin and cook for a while until the texture's good, put in bowls and add mozzarella on top. if you have a rough idea of what goes together with what, and a general knowledge of how to cook ingredients, you can make all sorts of foods and not need recipes beyond basic guidelines. this obviously does not apply to baking.

If you actually know what you're doing you won't just find one recipe you like and cook it by the book, you'll consult a number of cookbooks look at the variations and subtleties that each chef choices, then apply your own knowledge of the ingredients you have at hand, the styles of the chefs your drawing inspiration from, and then add any personal preferences of your own. Ofc if you like where this goes than you keep returning to the recipe and tweaking it slightly until you get *perfection*. That's how menu's are crafted. Ofc professional chef's don't do that everyday because they have restaurants to run and profits to make, but that how they will approach cooking a new dish. If your a decently competent home cook you should be doing the same with any meal you care about.
