A common practice today in cooking is over seasoning— ranging from professional chefs, to experienced home cooks. The internet is littered with long complex recipes that truly only overlap and mask flavors. A more complex recipe doesn’t always make for a more complex dish.
In fact, most dishes are best when you flesh out 3-4 flavors and let them thrive and compliment each other. This has a wonderful effect, not only on your final dish, but on your wallet as well. Less ingredients means less money, and in most cases less time.
A Simple Guide to Home Cooking is full of easy, and short recipes, that result in complex and delicious dishes. They are also widely customizable. One dish can easily be turned into another by changing a few of the basic herbs and cooking styles.
It is encouraged that you take each recipe and try to mold it into something on your own. Cooking is something we should each make our own. The recipes in this book will also double as guidelines to make your own delicious meals. Following each recipe is a helpful cooking tip to aid in the recipe, and in making life in your kitchen easier. This includes, how to finely dice an onion in less than a minute without crying, and the secret to cooking perfect eggs every time.
Also included is a comprehensive list of the major spices and herbs and what kind of meat they go well with. This way you can see, by just glancing, what goes well with what. This is an incredibly helpful tool for a beginner, or even an experienced home cook.
That being said, the recipes in this book are great on their own, they do not need any tweaking to be a great dish to share with your friends or family, I am just fond of the idea that everyone learns how to cook and create recipes on their own.
The meals covered in this cookbook are as follows:
— Breakfast
— Lunch
— Dinner
— Grill
— Cast Iron
— Prep Meals (Hands Off Cooking)
— Authentic Yooper (Upper Peninsula) Meals & Pastries
Learn recipes that have been in my family for generations, including a guide to making Cudighi, or Italian sausage, and learn the secret to cooking perfect meatballs in bulk.
