Am I a genius for not using recipes when cooking?
Lloyd asked:
I realized that I almost never use recipes. I just cook. Is it true that some people can’t do this? I think I might be a genius.

I don’t know about all that genius stuff……some people have natural talent that are gifted. Cooking without a recipe…doesn’t take alot of “skill” per say if you will….just plain common sense.
I’m a pretty good cook myself…..It’s easy for me..However…when it comes to anything tech…I had to learn first from a recipe…For baking and other things….. I’m a natural at cooking…..”Genius” -No..
