EDIT: What I mean is that you should experiment to find out how you like yours done.
Me experimenting with food often results in food getting thrown out. I'm lucky if things just turn out right if I have an exact recipe.
About three weeks ago, I threw out a triple batch of banana bread. I forgot to mix the dry ingredients first, and the loaves also got burned on the outside. The insides tasted salty, and had pockets of baking soda here and there. The things were just gross, and so they all got pitched out. Sucks to waste that much food; there were something like 5 cups of flour and 6 eggs in there, among other things. So given that I can screw up things even when I have a list of instructions, I don't like the idea of "experimenting" with anything food related; things tend to go wrong.
Hell, I only learned how to make scrambled eggs about a year ago, and I burned the first two attempts.
