Which describes you? Do you pick recipes first, then go to the store/garden for ingredients? Or do you buy/harvest then decide what to cook?
Most of the time I am of the second type - I see what I have on hand then decide what to make. I shop sales and use what is in season and abundance. It is rare that I buy specific ingredients for a recipe. I do keep a few basic things on hand at all times - onions, garlic, carrots, celery, mushrooms, spices - they are used in many recipes.
Which type are you? What are your base ingredients always on hand?
