I was posting some recipe ideas in the ground beef thread earlier and realized I didn’t put any quantities. when I’m cooking I never do——usually I’ll just put in amounts of "what feels right" based on the main ingredient. When following a recipe, I will use them as a guide—-but not necessarily use the amounts given, adjusting again to my personal tastes. This does pose a problem when I do give out a recipe—-I’m not sure I could come up with the right amounts just out of my head without notating amounts as I write them down. How do you cook? Do you measure, or do it on the fly?
