I have a bad habit of killing my own momentum when what I perceive to be the "correct" path conflicts with what I *want* to do. I perceive learning the "mother sauces" to be "correct," as I've already begun that task and knowing those seems to be considered "foundational," but what I *want* to do now is play with lentils and curries. So now I find myself doing neither. :p

Correct cooking is cooking that tastes good. The theory models reality, not the other way around. -- I honestly think experimentation is one of the best way to learn cooking. If you can figure out why things go wrong and course-correct back into flavorville, then you're an advanced chef indeed; and there's no better practice than messing up a bunch of times. ยท 3 years ago
