A perfect description of why I find cooking more forgiving than baking

"Baking is definitely technical. It’s not like cooking where you put a little bit of this, a little bit of that, you throw things in. You have to measure. If you miss an ingredient in a pasta sauce, you’ll be able to taste it and you’ll be able to fix it right away. If you miss baking powder in a pastry or in a bread, you’re f*cked."
