I want to talk about foods with the bare minimum ingredients where if you would have added more, it would have been a disservice.
Watcha got?

Excellent. You may be several steps above my cooking level, but I do love reading it
It helps to be old
Got a question ol’ feller,
What are your like top 10-15 things you get at the store that can be turned into a bunch of different shit?
What’s your basics?
That’s tough. The most versatile things are the basics: flour, milk, eggs, etc. but that’s not very exciting.
I think the trick is to accumulate all that stuff and then find random other ingredients to focus a recipe on.
For example right now they always have Leeks at the market, and they are pretty cheap, so I’ve been making a lot of pies with them.
