When cooking from a recipe, things are very easy, you follow the directions, add the ingredients in the amounts shown, and VOILA, youre an instant chef ;) I cook from scratch most of the time and of course i use moms recipes too, but when I cook from scratch i like to explore new territories. Sometimes my creations are very good, and I have to admit ive tossed some in the trash too... I have no formal training in the culinary arts but can someone give me some advice on how to pick herbs and spices for my creations? One thing I have tried is hold the herb/spice over what i am cooking to blend the smells to see it they are compatible but this doesnt always work. Can someone help with good rule of thumb?
