How do you make your own recipe?

Question

teach us

Answer 1

I make my own recipes by taking a few recipes of the same thing and then taking ingredients and ideas from each recipe to make my own!!

Answer 2

Take a recipe you like and change it to the way you like it  - then it will be your recipe.

Answer 3

It's completely up to you! I made this recipe, I called it Cucumber Cups. I just cut a cucumber into slices, and put whipped topping on it, and then topped it with nuts(pecans)

Best of Luck!!!!

Answer 4

Experiment  

Answer 5

The key word here is "your own".  If there is a dish you make which is different or even that you like how it is prepared, next time you make write down what you do. If you do this it will become a step by step recipe, once you write it down.  Next time follow your recipe to ensure it is correct, once you verify it, you have "your own" recipe.

Answer 6

trial and error

i come up with new recipes often but i eyeball everything so its hard to write down on paper to give to someone

Answer 7

out of necessity!!

experiment with the herbs and spices and flavorings in small batches of cookies, puddings, custards, and cakes. Experiment with flavoring meats with something new every day. Get to know what herbs, spices and flavorings you like together.

Then start tossing stuff in a pot and call it soup!

Flavor the dessert differently every day.

Read all the recipes in the cookbook you have.

Read all the recipes in a catagory on one of the online cookbook sites.

Learn from those who posted them what works and what doesn't.

Dare to try different things.
