Beginner Cooking Tips

Cooking is a skill that is not innate, and it can be difficult to know where to start if you are not first taught by your parents. In this post, I will discuss some simple tips for beginner cooks!

1. A very simple start is adding your own elements to pre-cooked or instant meals. It is not uncommon for people to make instant ramen their own by adding in more spices and vegetables.

2. Another easy start is a recipe that only requires one pan and a few ingredients. For example, scrambled eggs make an easy first meal. All that is required are eggs, oil to ensure the eggs don’t stick to the pan, and salt and pepper. This is very simple and once you get more comfortable you can add more seasonings or some greens to your eggs or mix in some easy-to-cook meat such as ground sausage.
