Soul Of A Cook

Soul Of A Cook

I’m dedicated to sharing some simple fun recipes that inspire others to want to approach cooking in a soulful way. To understand the importance of cooking and how to prepare meals, you must first learn the technique of instilling great flavor. I’m not talking about some simple seasonings added to give food flavor. I’m talking about some deep down soul added to your love of cooking. Something that taste ok just makes you question what you could or should have done differently. Great tasting dishes makes you want to dance to your own music in your cooking. Once you are able to dig deep down into your soul and understand what flavors make you happy, you put that knowledge into your creativity and your food will have everyone dancing to your tune. So while I have your attention, come be my guest and let me show you how a real cook can inspire you to be your own music.

“To instill real flavor to a recipe, you must first understand the soul of cooking!”
