Vibes based cooking

I use salt and pepper, how could you say my food is bland?

I probably put herbes de Provence in too many things, but I like how it tastes.

My chef yells at me because I do this all the time.

Though he's mainly mad because I didn't measure a single fuckin thing and can't recreate it

I binge watched a lot of Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares (the UK) one

The best tip ever given on those shows is Gordon Ramsay yelling “taste taste taste!” at everyone.

Tasting as you go is what improved my cooking the most. I also vigorously smell everything too.

So like cooking, if you are making a recipe of something new it's important to follow the recipe to know how it tastes then next time you know what to tweak to make it taste more like what you like

Maybe you just have good and fresh ingredients. Don't want to cover up the flavour of those, you want to just enhance them

"Can you share the recipe?"

"Nope!"

"Seriously?"

"Seriously, I don't remember."

You can still get jazzy with it tho once you understand tha chemistry well enough.

Jazzy Chemistry sounds like the title of a textbook that is attempting to be more attractive to students.

I had to bake by vibes one time because I started a recipe then realized I didn't have eggs and the friend the cake was for is lactose intolerant. Used a can of coconut milk. Turned into brownies instead of chocolate cake, but they were good enough that I've been intentionally making them since.

I have a Master's Degree in chemistry, I can't bake for shit. Cooking, on the other hand, I excel.

Baking is actually ranching.

Yeast is closer to the animal kingdom than the plant kingdom. It's a living organism you need to feed so it will grow your food. You need to make it comfortable and give it an environment to thrive and then kill it when it's the yummiest.

Either of the “as directed” users are just cowards with no taste buds.

[email protected]

also, if you do write down the recipe and try to recreate it on another day, it doesn't work because your mood has changed and now the flavor doesn't match anymore.

has happened to me many times now.

Isn't this just a sign of inexperience? If you have been cooking for a reasonable time, you will know which spices to use when going for what sort of flavour.

If your chef has a nose and taste buds he should be able to figure it out by remaking it a few times.

I don't even sniff them; I just remember how they taste/smell, and then I end up adding vanilla extract to savoury dishes and it tastes amazing
