Remember that recipes are guides
A recipe is there as a guide, but it's not the law. So if you find yourself reading a recipe that asks for an ingredient that's hard to find or too expensive, ask yourself, "Is this ingredient essential? Is it a deal-breaker if I don't have it? What's lost if I don't use it?"
Ultimately, you should make food the way you want it. If an experiment doesn't go quite as planned, that's OK. And if you mess something up, it's not really that big a deal."
