Cooking Mistakes
Listen to me! Cooking is not just throwing things in a pan and praying! It’s chemistry! It’s passion! And right now, you are making a mess of it! I see you putting cold steak in a pan. Stop it! It’s grey! It looks like a boiled shoe!
We asked professional chefs—people who actually know what they are doing—to list the mistakes you lot are making at home. And the list is long. You’re ruining your pans, you’re not tasting your food, and for the love of god, buy a digital scale! Baking is science, not a guessing game! Wake up!
Hopefully, you learned something today. Like the fact that seasoning is not a crime. Taste your food! If it tastes like nothing, add salt! It’s not rocket science. And the onion dicing? Please, watch a video before you slice a finger off.
It’s about respect. Respect for the ingredients, respect for the equipment, and respect for your own stomach. If you stop making these rookie errors, you might actually cook something edible for once. Now get out of here.
