Things you forgot (or never knew) because of React
If you don't often look beyond established comfortable defaults, you might be surprised to learn just how far the world of frontend has moved away from React, and how big that gap continues to grow.Josh Collinsworth

It's a fine line. I love food history stories and trivia, but, when I was teaching at Sur la Table, my approach was to focus on the steps so you could do the recipe at home. I voiced my objection to a 'with recipes' knife skills class, because it took time away from basic knife skills to make tomato soup and Green Goddess dressing – time that could go to the 'hands on' part of becoming comfortable with a chef's knife.
