Just My Cooking is a recipe website, nothing more. It's not here to tell you about the history of the recipes, someones life story or tries to pretend that any of these recipes are authentic in any way. The recipes you'll find are ones that I enjoy cooking, ones that I want to keep a record of. They may not be perfectly correct, or even perfectly complete. They're more like guidelines and I think that's how I treat recipes anyway. I don't think recipes should be perfectly prescriptive. A teaspoon could be heaped, or maybe just a smidge depending on ones mood, depending on the flavor of the month. This approach isn't for everyone, I know, but it's one that I enjoy and I hope others do too.
