I'm very careful with recipes that call for ingredients I've never used before. You never know just how they will turn out. And if I'm making something new and my gut tells me the recipe has it wrong- I've never failed going with my gut!

But you have to experiment.

But you have to experiment. Yes- it's how you learn to make interesting food!! I like to recreate fancy foods from restaurants. Eat the dish recreate from taste. I'm actually pretty decent picking ourt flavors and figuring out recipes. But that has resulted in a few misses every now and then.... |

I hate it when a new recipe doesn't turn out the way I had hoped.
I recently discovered I'm not a big pesto fan after I made a what looked like a really yummy chicken recipe. I just wasn't diggn' it!!

ever try a new recipe and be totally disappointed. Happens all the time. I've also gone to movies that turned out to be dogs, started relationships with people who turned out to be schmucks (Not you Peter) started books that I stopped reading half way through. As Shutout said, you gotta experiment, take a chance, try something new. As FDR said: "It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something."
-- Quote by Franklin D. Roosevelt, Address at Oglethorpe University (May 22, 1932)

I made a carrot soup once that I was pretty disappointed with - mainly because it basically just tasted like carrots.
