How Sofia develops a recipe
There’s no shortcut — just repetition. A recipe usually starts with a craving or a reader request. Sofia cooks a first version, notes what’s off (too dry, too bland, wrong texture), and cooks it again. Only once it’s reliably good does it go up, written with exact measurements and the substitutions that actually worked — plus the ones that didn’t, so you can skip the trial and error.
A note on how we talk about food
When Sofia describes an ingredient or a substitution, she’s describing how it behaves in cooking — flavor, texture, preparation. It’s cooking information, not medical, nutritional, or dietary advice, and it isn’t a health claim.
