If you're not living in the same place where you grew up, how have your food traditions changed/ evolved with you? When I left my birth city to join the Cape Town province, I found out that they didn’t have all of the food that I grew up eating, and I had to adapt with the availability of the food in the new city.

What is your never fail piece of cooking advice? Did someone pass it on to you? Did you learn that lesson the hard way? Cooking is an art and baking is a skill. I always advise people to weigh their baking ingredients and also to remember that ingredients like butter and eggs must be at room temperature for better results.
