Fine cooking is a combination of simple things. You meld together a sequence of simple tasks that result in a complex recipe, but we still do the basics of cooking that our "caveman" ancestors did. When the simple things become unnecessarily complex, it prevents us from creating a good recipe. We get so caught up in the unnecessarily complex details that we lose site of the goal.

that's when the recipe shows up on Pinterest...

No that's when you do molecular cuisine and need two bags of rice to make a simple 2cm x 2cm cookie.
