I have very few "recipes" I use (most are just methods). But the few
I have written down are archived either here or in Facebook. I have
less than 5 of them.

Also, if I want to remember how I cooked something sorta unique from
the past, I purposely put details such as time/temp (especially for
sous vide) and anything I'd do differently next time in my posts to
Facebook so I can look them up again. Those idiots think I'm
talking to them when it's just my food diary ;-)
