Coming up with a recipe for cooking is like art, it combines experience and inspiration.

While many recipes can be found online and also ideas can be sparked by any given moment while you are in the kitchen. Just look inside your refrigerator and pantry and see how they speak to you.

Like all things, it just needs some joy and keeping an open mind in the whole process from grocery, prep work and cooking.

Looking for and getting the right ingredient from your grocery store is just as important as the process of cooking. For example, if you are to bake a delicious juicy salmon for dinner, getting a fresh salmon vs previously frozen one will make and break the dish since they do not bake to the same texture (fresh bake to tender and soft while previous frozen bake to dry and hard).

Food preparation does the same for texturing shrimp, chicken and meat, certain procedures that need to happen prior in order for the dish to turn out the way it should.

Finally cooking is a matter of heating things up: searing, boiling, baking, steaming, broiling among others, controls, timing, and orders as required by a recipe.

All of these above amounts to a delicious meal that was placed on a table for your taste.
