I enjoy the back and forth conversations, debates and how to improve various recipes or simply reinforce various theories and recipes as found here on DC. DC'ers most often readily provide explanations such as why doesn't my bread rise and why does my cake batter overflow the pan type of things etc. based on our own knowledge and experiences. The recent discussion regarding prolonged crocked pot cooking red sauce and flavor loss is a good example for group discussion. I think anyone who read this hopefully came away learning something.
If the Chief is looking to expand on this in another way, I kind of liked, for example, the treatise he started a year or so ago on Mother Sauces. I learned a lot about them, not having looked further than a specific sauce recipe previous. I did a lot of studying and comparing, both in cookbooks and on the 'net before and during the discussion. And hopefully I was able to contribute a little to the discussion about what I learned and I Made several sauces as I identified them too.
I think I would like to see more technical / analytical info offered along side various ways how to cook something as well as accompanying recipes.
I am pretty sure there are explanations out there to be found already about How much salt to add to how much leavening agent, or perhaps it's per how many eggs and leavening or when to use baking soda vs baking powder. I forget the details, but it's readily available. Whether you write about this or not, I will Still Forget and have to look it up untll it's drilled into me or a Really Memorable Example is provided and drilled into me. OR I could just use a written recipe and follow the directions and think no further about it. That is not always good enough.
So I guess what I would like to see is what or how you make some things Better, or why making something differently Improves the plan.
Oh, and while you are at it, please explain theories behind why Mom's apple pie, or anything Mom made, is always Best, even if you have the exact recipe written in Mom's hand writing. You know you have to have fun too.
