I cook a lot. I'm always experimenting. I'm not much of a recipe follower.
I always feel like a script is a recipe, and then you bring the elements into the recipe, and you cook with it.
I'm a cook, and I'm like, "a dash of this, a pinch of that." I cook with a lot of passion and instinct. So that's the hardest thing - to put an actual recipe together.
If you learn a recipe, you can cook the recipe. If you learn the technique, you can cook anything.
Always look for the best ingredients, treat the food you cook with respect, always read the entire recipe first, be organized, and have fun.
I'm no cook, but I love to eat. Usually, food tastes best when there isn't a recipe, just a cook who knows what foods and seasonings go well together.
Because I cook a lot, I wanted to write a recipe book, really incorporating the message that you don't have to starve yourself to be reasonably skinny.
A home cook who relies too much on a recipe is sort of like a pilot who reads the plane's instruction manual while flying.
A big thing that gets people in trouble in the kitchen is not reading the recipe from start to finish before you cook it. Before you start anything, read through the entire recipe once.
I can cook a little bit. I can cook a few Spanish dishes. But, in movies, it looks like I cook much better than I cook.
I'm a really good cook. I bake a lot. I cook dinner most nights. I cook everything from Italian food to Mexican food. But if I'm going to some place and it's a potluck, I'm always the one to bring dessert!
A recipe has no soul. You, as the cook, must bring soul to the recipe.
Computer programming is really a lot like writing a recipe. If you've read a recipe, you know what the structure of a recipe is, it's got some things up at the top that are your ingredients, and below that, the directions for how to deal with those ingredients.
For me, it's the unexpected and surprising combinations of produce that are the most exciting and lure me into the kitchen for a little bit of experimenting. Apples and sweet potatoes together? Who knew? Carrots with grapes? Okay. I may not be Julia Child, but I can do pretty well with a simple recipe and a lot of enthusiasm.
My best work is always done... when I'm experimenting. If I stop experimenting I feel it just becomes a drudgery.
I'm not an amazing cook. But I can follow a recipe!
