#93 - Cook Without a Recipe

Are you afraid to go off script on a recipe? Or maybe you’re not afraid, but things never turn out just right when you riff in the kitchen. This week, I’m sharing a handful of concepts that if you understand them in concept will start to change your cooking experience tremendously. I’m not saying you’ll walk away from this episode a master chef, but your confidence and understanding of what can make you become better will definitely change.Companion Links for this Episode: Download my super helpful eBook The Swap all month long to help you make a clear path through your stuff.
