Have Fun!
A lot of people are intimidated in the kitchen, and that bums me out considering that it’s one of the spaces where I find myself having the most fun. I like to make up a cocktail, put on some jazz, and get to work on something that I know I’ll enjoy.
Most of the time, that means making something relatively simple. For brand new chefs, check out YouTube and find some recipes and chefs that you like and can relate to. That way, you can get some guidance on how to make something that you think will be good. Or, perfect something you can already make: a well-made grilled cheese sandwich and homemade tomato soup can be absolutely stellar on a cold, rainy summer evening.
