Don’t Be Afraid of Mistakes

 


Don’t Be Afraid of Mistakes

Discovery really does require experimentation! And in a similar vein, you should never be afraid of making a mistake when you’re trying to come up with a recipe of your own. Mistakes mean you know what to do next time—you know not to mix those ingredients, or to not put so much salt in the mix, or to turn down the oven temperature or take it out sooner. If you’re really struggling, you could even hire a private chef to walk you through some techniques. These are very much the fundamentals of working out what’s really going to make your recipe good, so make sure you keep going back to the drawing board, because you’ll have a bit more know-how each and every time.

The best way to correct your mistakes of course is practice. Practice at home or enrol to cooking workshops to learn how to create new dishes with the help of a professional chef.

Make it Your Own!

Write it down, type it out, then print and frame it to go on the wall if you’re really proud of what you’ve come up with! A part of making a recipe your own is writing it down. When you describe a recipe’s preparation in your own words, with your own nuances and vocabulary guiding people through each step, you will truly feel you have created something. All in all, once you’ve written it down, and it’s got your name and personality in it, it’s your recipe.
