I love cooking. It's fun, delicious, rewarding, healthy (usually), and can totally get you laid. It is, however, very intimidating to get started. That is why I have decided to write said column. To try to make it less scary. What I would like to know is what people would like me to share my advice about? Do people want shopping tips? Knife skills? General cooking advice? Recipes? Cooking veggies? Fish? Meat? Whatever you want I will write about to the best of my knowledge. So, ask away in the comments!
Include video clips!
ReplyDeleteLet me say that I'm somewhat of a home chef myself (LADIES) and I feel that recipes can be found anywhere online or on the Food Network. I'd rather read about the ideas behind food, both scientifically and culturally. Why do fish and lemon go great together or why does chicken and rosemary work great? What are the orgins of pizza and how have the different varities evolved? So the basics of cooking explained, things like that.
ReplyDeleteOr, you know, crazy food, like the AV Club's Taste Test where they try Kool-Aid pickles, ramen chocolate, alcoholic or cheeseburger in a can. Gross = good reading!
What a coincidence, I'm thinking of becoming a great cook.
ReplyDeleteCooking will only get you laid if you lace––*ahem* I mean, it works every time!
ReplyDeleteWhat's your bolognese recipe?
