The art of cooking is either something that you’ve got or something that you haven’t! Although you can be trained in the art it can take years of practice to be able to create a masterpiece. Now while a lot of us possess the basic skills to put a decent meal on the table, we do have to rely on the recipe books produced by the masters to step it up to the next level.
