A Note About the Recipes

I don’t measure precise amounts when making recipes. I don’t expect you to either. The recipes posted on this blog — with the exception of baked goods — offer amounts as suggestions that you should feel free to adjust according to your tastes, the ingredients you have on hand and your cooking instinct. I trust you! While we’re on the subject, feel free to substitute one ingredient for another, or to double or halve recipes, or to do your own thing. That’s how cooking should be.

I should also mention that while I have made all of these recipes, I’m not a professional food writer. I don’t test the recipes several times or usually take notes while I am cooking. Sometimes I re-create recipes from memory. So caveat emptor. If you have suggestions or improvements, I’d love to hear about them, so please leave me a comment.
