Cooking is an art form. It's about adding your own personal touch to everything you make. Most cookbooks are written so you follow specific measurements and ingredient lists. Not here! Be Your Own Chef II is all about inspiring you to be creative with each recipe and cooking to your own taste. Each recipe provides suggested ranges for most ingredients so that you become the chef and make the recipe your own.
Many recipes in this book include some of the same ingredients, saving you time and money and preventing wasted food. You might say this is an all-in-one cookbook. All recipes are packed full of alternative ingredients that can be swapped in place of the original ones in order to suit your individual taste, dietary needs, and budget. Also, this book is filled with tips to help you with food preparation and shelf life. Tips and alternatives are recipe-specific, so no page-flipping is necessary.
