- Comment on How does someone with no experience learn to make food? 1 year ago:
Didn’t bother learning to cook until my mid 20s. You will be a disaster chef before your a master chef but sick with it and always have cereal on standby!
Start out with the basics: if you like pasta, try a basic tomato sauce recipe. If you like eggs, try an omelette with some veg. Figure out what you like and use that to keep you interested and growing your skills.
You will learn as you go on how to prepare/cut up different vegetables. YouTube is a great resource.
The more you do, the more confident you will become. Watching YouTube videos on cooking is no substitute for time in the kitchen cooking though!
You will cremate food, undercook food, over season, under season, ruin pans, smash dishes, have food weld itself into oven trays, laugh, and cry - and you’ll be all the better cook for it.
Good luck!

Not enough beans. Needs more beans.
