Enjoy cooking
This is one of the real secrets, you need to have pleasure in cooking
as much as savouring if you want to be a good cook...
|
|
Use good tools
You will need certain basic tools which are essential. Choose
the good ones, it is important.
|
|
Take advice
In Web sites, in books, in conversations...Let your imagination
work and get
ready for new ideas...
|
Chose ingredients with care
Always choose good and fresh ingredients, they will do half
of the job for you (and you cannot do good things without them).
|
|
1 - Often practice
Like a language or sports, you need to practice cooking if you want
to progress...you will discover many things by yourself and start
creating...Feel free to change proportions or replace ingredients
of a recipe...
|
2 - Taste & adjust
Taste your preparations as often as you can, even before cooking
; you will learn a lot from it and you will be able to adjust the
flavor if something is missing ; this might be too late after cooking.
|
3 - Learn your own style
In practicing you will determine your favorite flavors, and
you will understand that a recipe is just an idea, only big outlines
which you have to adapt to your own taste & style.
