Be patient about the recipe. There's a billions of recipe out there. The most important thing of cooking is you know the basic of cooking. Firstly, let me tell you about the art of classical cooking.

Classical cooking refers to French cookery that reached its zenith in the kings' palaces during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. French cookery is subject to continuous change, and is closely linked with changes occurring in other art forms. The goal to be achieved today is the combination of classical dishes coupled with artistic, but simple, decorative foods. Only by understanding cookery in this sense is it possible to achieve perfection in the practice of culinary art.

Classical Cookery - Classical cookery includes all the basic dishes together with those specialties and dishes adopted from the old French and international cookery. On the other hand, those 'historical' monstrosities, with their pompous and unaesthetic structures or pretentious ornamentation are not a part of classical cooking. Only attractive presentations which satisfy the palate and the eye are classical. This is especially true when the name of the dish also corresponds to its actual ingredients. The names like Rossini, Colbert, a la bordelaise, a la Portuguese, a la florentine, and Argentuil are recognized classical names, and recipes for these dishes require specific ingredients.

Plain cooking - Contrary to classical cookery, plain cooking originally started in private kitchens. The food is simpler, but nevertheless nutritionally adequate and carefully prepared. Many regions and local areas have their own particular cuisine. The climate and geographical conditions, the background of the people, and the traditions and customs of the area often influence the eating patterns and nutritional needs of the people. Many of the dishes unique to a specific region have gained widespread acceptance, as more and more emphasis is placed on nutritional and health needs of the people.
