Most people (I guess?): Finds a recipe, then follows the recipe.
Me: Finds a recipe, finds a couple more similar recipes, mentally compares the recipes, breaks down all the common elements (basically deconstructing the recipe), looks around to see what ingredients I have on hand, then re-constructs the recipe based on ingredients on hand (unless I happen to be going to the store), jots down rough notes, creates a new recipe (tweaking as needed).
Does anyone else do this? I know some folks who can just throw together ingredients (and I can do that too) -- but I prefer having a "formula" and notes so I can replicate it in the future (if it comes out well), or tweak as needed.
