I really appreciate the way the videos are organize for each recipe. Everything is clearly explained, step by step. The tips given and the recipes that can be downloaded are exactly the same as those in the video. Even at the expert level, the recipe may seem difficult, complicated and time-consuming, but it doesn't seem insurmountable.
