If You Bite It – You Write it!
Have you ever sunk your teeth into a new dish, pastry, dessert, or barbecue and knew you just had to have the recipe? The taste may have been so overwhelming that you needed to try to re-create it yourself. Consequently, you may have quickly written the instructions and ingredients on whatever scrap of paper was available.Recipes come from many sources and the memory of how the recipe comes together fades quickly. To preserve those recipes for future use and to keep your memories alive for your children and grandchildren to get a glimpse of your personal history, you should write them down in your blank recipe journal. By completing one or more blank keepsake recipe journals with entries from other generations, you can see the progression of changes in the home cooking world. Recipes from the early 1900s may call for a pound of flour today's recipe might call for 4 cups of flour. There may be other differences as well.
If you bite it – you write it recipes are for those dishes that excited your taste buds and you knew early on they were important enough to write down.
If you are like many of us you most likely have recipes scattered about in several different locations in your home. They may be recipes you have tried and found to be a family favorite. Or perhaps they are recipes you have come across but have not had time yet to experience. Maybe you have gone to a family or workplace gathering and discovered a dish that you just knew you needed the recipe and jotted it down quickly on the nearest scrap of paper you could find.
This journal is our offering to help you better organize your recipes and keep them close at hand. You will no longer need to search the cloud or your hard drive for that long lost family recipe. It will be right there on the shelf where you can easily get to it. You may even find yourself questioning whether or not you need to keep another copy in a safe location so as not to be destroyed by fire or flood.
