I have been cooking since I moved in with my BF a couple years ago. I have started by taking a short cooking course in college. I have been using AllRecipes.com for about 4 months now and I just love it! Chicken and Fish is the main diet I try to stick with when I am cooking for family and friends. Making rice in the stone hot pots from Korea. Making a fish chowder, that just turned out amazing! I tweaked the original recipe with a few things and it was just wonderful! I believe that is the best way to cook, be creative and venture out and do something different with the original recipes! Trying to make toffee at home for the first time! My goodness what a night, I burnt two pots trying. Never again!
