The Death of Recipes panel turned int...Hi Kristin,<br /><br />The Death of Recipes panel turned into what was mainly Michael Ruhlman insisting that there was no need for recipes anymore, and Karen and Andrew insisting that there was.<br /><br />The three made a good point that many recipes today are no good or aren't even tested. <br /><br />I understand Ruhlman's point; he wants people to learn the fundamentals of basic cooking techniques so they're not relying solely on a recipe. That's a good point, but even I believe that's part fantasy. Not everyone is as interested in learning how to truly as some of us in the food world. Some people just want to get food on the table and get on with other important aspects of their lives.<br /><br />Page and Dornenberg focused understanding how flavors work in cooking, and how that can allow home cooks to branch out on their own instead of being bound to a recipe or cookbook. They also heavily promoted their new book, The Flavor Bible. :) <br /><br />Here's a YouTube clip of part of the discussion. Michael Ruhlman wants everyone to shut the TV off and cook with their families. Page, surprisingly, was on the side of the busy person who doesn't have time to cook. Here was Ruhlman's reaction. :) <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9LBJ9sHE1k&feature=related<br /><br />And I believe if you go to YouTube and look up "IACP Death of Recipes" you'll see more video of the panel.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />~JFJenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14963426488251851363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843558872658661052.post-23744731651303714182010-04-28T20:23:30.048-04:002010-04-28T20:23:30.048-04:00Would you tell us more about the Death of Recipes ...Would you tell us more about the Death of Recipes panel?
