Before I realized it, I had begun a new series at gnowfglins.com – Basic Recipes. Currently, there are just four recipes in the series, but I think my archives could reveal many more. This is something I will work on over time.
For a recipe to be included in the Basic Recipes, it must be a basic, adaptable recipe, for a food that is standard fare. Examples would be: basic bread recipe, basic salad dressing recipe, basic roast, basic pancakes, basic tortillas, etc.
When viewing a Basic Recipe, look over in the sidebar and you’ll see a list of the most recently added basic recipes.

Clicking on it will take you to the complete list of basic recipes, in chronological order.
What do you think? What recipes would you like to see added to the Basic Recipes series?
