They keep updating it periodically, too, without losing its awesomeness. Just making it even more awesome each time.Not at all. Tells you what spices are, their interactions with foods, substitutions, you name it. Read this link. It is over a thousand pages of knowledge in cooking.One of the first things to do is get the Joy of Cooking cookbook. It is an incredible guide on all things cooking. Like an encyclopedia for cooking.I am pondering going to cooking school. I'll be retiring in 3 years and I want to do something completely different. Something fun and I like to cook already.
I'm not thinking about becoming a chef, too much work and I'm going to be retired. I just want to be able to create dishes of my own. I want to learn what to do if my dish contains say, cauliflower. What kind of spices go well with that or what meats or other vegetables.
Anyone here able to do that now?
Isn't it just recipes?
The Joy of Cooking by Irma S. Rombauer

BEAR------starting from the warm dead body. I think "possum"
too.
