Welcome

. I've only been here a couple months myself. These guys here take care of you though...
I know the recipes seem overwhelming at first, but the logic is you pick a base (I picked Bruce Edwards'...it was simple for me to do, and has worked with all of the dishes I've tried thus far), pick a recipe and go. The toughest thing for me was the process of stocking my spice rack
It's addicting making this stuff, because each time you do it, your methods become better and better, and you get more confident with the food you're making.
Anyway, GL with the cooking. Post pics of your creations
