Re: cooking blog
yah, my roommate paid for the lobsters.
and yes, i've thought about cooking with more expensive ingredients but i don't really see the point unless it's to impress someone with "luxury" ingredients. for me, the whole point of cooking is deliciousness (and balanced nutrition, i guess)...if I can accomplish that with inexpensive goods, why bother spending more money? how do you guys feel about that? |

Re: cooking blog
Mike, what you do is awesome but at least for me nothing beats a nice juicy steak. A lot of times premium ingredients are just what people like best. Not saying you wouldn't knock my socks off with the stuff you cook but if a nice cut of meat is on sale at a reasonable price I aint gonna pass it up.
I like your philosophy. |

Re: cooking blog
Personal taste is, by definition, subjective, no?
If I have a nice juicy steak and a plate of fried rice in front of me, I'm going for the fried rice 95/100 times. Thus, I cook the types of food that I enjoy eating, ldo. It's also really easy finding all the ingredients for this sorta stuff in my San Fran neighborhood. Back when I lived in Evanston, Illinois, I couldn't find ANY of the necessary ingredients. I sorta morph my style to what's readily available. For instance, if I moved to the Mission district, I'm sure I'd start cooking more Mexican/latin food. |
