Does anyone else do “Iterative cooking”? I like to make sometime, and then make it again, with a little tweak to make it better. I record all of my ingredients and amounts of everything so I can cook consistantly. It’s my dream to make some favorites, and make them the same way every time.
Constant tweaks are normal. I do them all the time. But I don’t record everything. So the same meal will come out slightly differently every time. Recipes are great, but variation in ingredient quality require some adaption every time anyway. An apple is not always an apple. An eggplant is not always the same eggplant. Cooking “living” recipes is what makes this whole thing exciting.
