I have a theory about recipes/cookbooks...I'm starting to believe they purposefully miss ingredients out (like salt, herbs etc), just so you never quite make it as good as it should be. That way you always refer back to the book for more help or purchase additional books in the hope of one day achieving culinary perfection! It's all a marketing ploy...at least that's reasoning I'm attributing to my recent cooking disasters...
I am sick of Jamie Oliver's sloshes, glugs, dribbles and drizzles. He seems incapable of specifying how much of an ingredient is needed. I am never buying one of his cookbooks again!
