Your go-to recipe/cooking thread
I feel that this is an important thread to have. What are your home-run recipes? Where do you get them from? How did you learn to cook?
I really got into cooking during my grad-school grind from 2011-2013. My girlfriend (now, wife) bought me a copy of Fergus Henderson's Nose to Tail Part 1. It was from that that I learned how to put the basics together. I still try to cook a recipe from that once a week, and it really opened my eyes up to the true potential of simple English fare. Since then, I have moved continental, going through Julia Child's books.
My absolutely most favourite dish to make is definitely Child's coq au vin, and my most fun dish is, and will always be, stuffed lamb hearts.
