In the world of cooking, recipes are critiqued and reviewed so that only the best survive; that is the favorite recipe.
These recipes usually have some secret ingredient, a special technique used, or they are just plain good. Of course, for all people their favorite recipes are different. So who’s to decide whats good and whats not?
You are!
Because each person has their own particular tastes and desires, no recipe has ever been named everyone’s favorite recipe. But this section has some of my favorite recipes and perhaps they will become some of your favorite recipes too.
There are all different kinds of recipes, each of them having their own special flair which makes them irresistible.
Some of my favorite recipes have been passed down through many generations. Making those recipes is a family tradition and everyone learns how and knows the story behind the favorite recipe.
Other recipes I have clipped out of magazines, books, and newspapers and many of them have become my treasured favorites! Oh, this reminds me of a good tip. In case you are unaware, in many newspapers there is a food section. This section usually has good cooking ideas, baking tips, great recipes, and even product reviews!
Also, these favorite recipes have been cooked in my kitchen many, many times. Some of them have specific alterations which I routinely make to the recipe because that is the way that my family likes them.
You can try the recipe as is or you can try some of the alterations too.
Like for example, say it is your favorite recipe for a chocolate chip cookie? Well after making the recipe a few times you can add more chocolate chips or half chocolate chips and half white chocolate chips, or maybe you can add nuts.
By making these subtle (sometimes even drastic) changes, your favorite recipe for the chocolate chip cookie is now your own. You can change a good recipe from something you like, into something that you will love and proudly call one of your favorite recipes!
So basically, in this part of my web site, I will post MY favorite recipes in hopes that you will enjoy them also. Some are classic, while others are more original. Either way, they all are fantastic. A is something close to your heart, something of your own; so take my recipes, enjoy them, and then make them your own!
