[@ramblingrook1438]

Another knife safety tip is if you do wind up dropping your knife DO NOT try and grab it before it hits the floor. Everyone has that spilt second reaction to try and grab things before they hit the floor and it might take a while to train your brain, but please don't try and catch it. Just back up so it can't hit your leg or foot and then when it hits the floor you can pick it up, rinse it off and continue working.

Best advice is that the whole “measure twice cut once” applies to food too. Read that recipe and reread it over and over and over again as many times as you have to as you’re going along doing it to make sure you have it right. I’ve never been diagnosed with dyslexia but words don’t always word correctly for me so I often times find myself reading the recipe as I’m prepping for it and while actually cooking the thing. My memory is also shot and I’ve baked one too many cakes without egg to understand why I need to be fully aware of what I’m doing

I've been cooking since my mid-teens; inspired by my mom's cooking. And ever since this summer after moving into a new house with my dad and sister, I started cooking way more. Almost every week. I've cooked chicken and waffles, cheesecake, borsch, brisket, and pasta dishes. It is a lot of fun exploring new dishes and brainstorming ways to plan batches of meals for a low cost. One piece of advice I can give you, Illy, and anyone else reading this (which I should have learned way sooner) is to never overcomplicate things. Last month, I attempted to make those viral potato noodles. The recipe calls for one part potato to one part cornstarch. It took A LOT of work. Boiling the potatoes, mashing the potatoes, mixing the starch, boiling the noodles, and chilling the noodles. Kneading all of that dough was exhausting. And once I tasted the noodles, they were not good. No amount of sauce could obscure that strong taste of cornstarch. Plus, I bought the wrong kind of squash to go with it as the skin made it too tough to eat. So, yeah.

I was the kid that started cooking at 7 years old. By the time I got into high school and started taking cooking classes, I was the kid that impressed everyone around me by knowing how to do all of the techniques already, since I had been doing them for nearly 10 years. In college I attracted my now wife by making pizza from scratch. And now, with all of that experience and drive to cook more complicated dishes, I've become the person that everyone among my friends and family get super excited when I cook. A few of my friends even ask me to taste their leftovers of dishes they were proud of, because they want my opinion. They know that I'll give my honest thoughts on it, and they want that so they can become a better cook. And I love that so much. A friend even asked me to take notes at her wedding on all of the food (which I did, and felt really awkward doing while I was there). All of this to say, I love when people start learning to cook, and I especially love it when they try more difficult dishes that they weren't 100% sure they could pull off. Last thing. The number one most common critique I give is "don't be afraid to use more salt." Most people under salt their dishes in fear of over salting. The seasoning will be great, but the under salting just leaves the dish with a little something missing. And imo, I prefer a slightly over salted dish than an under salted one.

[@charlirogers6235]

When we were dating, I made fried chicken for my boyfriend. He bit into it and it was not cooked all the way . I had worked so hard and messed it up. I started to cry and he was like, "babe, its delicious, I love it". And he ate it! He just kept eating this hemorrhaging drumstick and telling me it was great. I have never been more touched and horrified in my life. I married that foolish man and this April is our 3 year anniversary. And no matter how bad I mess up a meal, he always eats it with a smile.

One of the most important things when cooking is simply don't get distracted, don't watch videos or shows or anything, especially if you're inexperienced so you won't burn anything mess up the recipe

If you do end up getting distracted or accidentally mess up your recipe, remember that it's not a big deal. Worst thing that has a /probable/ chance of happening would be making a gross dish or just burning it.

2:22 these are both the proper way to hold a knife, it just depends how much pressure you need to apply. The one with the check mark is for precision and control. The one with the x is for cutting large and thick ingredients, think eggplant or large cuts of meat when you want to cut up the bone as well.(use a cleaver when cutting up bones)
