It really, honestly isn't a high-risk process at all. You just have to think a little bit. All I can say is try it yourself and see. For me, half the fun is seeing what it comes up with based on what I feed it, especially if I encourage fusion cuisine. I've hit some real winners that way.

Also, portion adjustments are quite useful, as I mostly only cook for one or two people. Scaling isn't always linear, so that's been a helpful step.
