No it is quite based. Recipes are for brainlets with no taste. Anyone who actually knows how to cook doesn't need to follow a set of dumbed down instructions written by a woman.

i literally made nothing but marco recipes from youtube for a week and my family loved it. you learn more from him in 5 minutes than you can with any other garbage celebrity or youtuber chef, save for jacque pepin and julia child. even then, they're not masters at cooking sprezzatura and philosophy like marco. the man is a god.

all truly good food has already been made, at least if you value simplicity. And as a chef you absolutely should.

Sometimes I check timings, temps etc online but all cooking I do is on the fly.

I don't follow a recipe except for patisserie and baking, where small changes can fuck up hours of work. If I worked in a restaurant or food plant, of course, I would want that level of consistency.

I've seen too many people, however, who can't cook without a recipe. They can make a dish, but have no clue as to what makes it good/bad, or how to improve it.

Recipes are for shitbrained cooks like this >>15433565 to make a recipe without "improvising" and putting expensive ingredients to make the food better (since the price of the dish is 15€, you wouldn't put saffron in it).

But if you understand this and the logics of cooking, you don't need recipes. Simple.

Wife cooks from a recipe book, it tastes fine, but where's the LOVE!? I've been cooking since I was 4, she just started about 4 years ago, aside from the few dishes she could make (which are good) and I've just recently convinced her to branch out and experiment with her dishes, 8 times out of 10 it tastes better than the last time she made it.

In fairness those stock pots are a lot better than the competition.
