important home cooking edicts:
you can sit down to do it
you can buy things pre-chopped
the powder version is fine
the correct recipe is the one that you like the most
the correct method is the one that you can do
good nutrition is the food you can actually eat and enjoy
do not eat mouldy or rotten food
you do not need to wash the chicken you are going to cook the chicken washing the chicken just spreads raw meat bacteria all over the kitchen please stop washing chicken it is not necessary and it is the opposite of helpful
don't use raw meat knife for raw veggies or cheese unless you've washed it good
authenticity is a lie, make the version that you personally enjoy you are the person who is going to be eating it
i am serious stop giving a fuck about someone's imaginary nonna disapproving of your food she's not the one eating it you are
the correct amount of spice is the amount you are happy with
food that looks a mess can still taste just fine, your stomach isn't instagram
check you turned the stove off after
all condiments go with all things it is your mouth they're going into
unusal flavour combinations can be really effective!
check the plastic/glass is heatsafe before putting boiling water in it
do not put dripping wet thing into hot fat. regret.
set timer. "i'll just remember it's in the oven" that is the devil talking set a fucking timer
the washing machine is not a cooking appliance
if the cat has sat on it or licked it you need to wash it before you eat with/from it.
wash hands after handling raw meat and before handling cheese that you're not cooking.
most germs do not survive being cast into the flames
if you like cheese you can and should put cheese on that.
do not eat the off egg. it will not be fine. you will have a bad bathroom time.
different oils have different smoke points. a smoke point is when the pan starts smoking. it makes stuff taste less good and stick to the pan.
sometimes less heat for longer is what you want. you cannot always do big heat for short time. if you want short time because you're in a hurry: microwave.
do not put the wet thing in the toaster
it can be soup. it can always be soup.
non-stick does not mean no oil
skipping preheating is not a good idea and makes things stick to stuff and cook weirdly
the correct texture for the noodles/pasta is the one that you are happy eating
if you add incorrect/stupid/moralising/contradictory/irrelevant/culturally insensitive/insulting advice to my post i will block you :) make your own post.
