Welcome and Happy Eating

Welcome to the Not So Scientific Gourmet blog where it’s all in the name except for when it isn’t. I work in science and my coworkers keep asking for my recipes. They suggested something scientific. On the other hand, the way I create (aka cook) is more from instinct than science. Hence the name, Not So Scientific.

Enough about the name and more about why you want to read this on a weekly-ish basis. I’ve been cooking ever since I can remember, why don’t we just say for over 30 years, and I love it. Cooking is not only about making something delicious that my family can enjoy but also about perfecting recipes that seem perfect already, but really aren’t. In keeping with Chef Gusteau from Ratatoullie, “Anyone can cook”, which is true, but also anyone can tweak and perfect recipes to the personal preferences of themselves and their families.

Each week, I will post one of the recipes that people keep asking me for. Try it out yourself. Let me know what you think and send me your ideas for what you want to taste next.
