The Basics

Do you ever read a recipe and feel like you’re missing something? Have you ever seen a cooking term and wondered what the heck does that mean? Do you ever feel like David and Moira? Do you ever just wonder, what the heck do they actually learn in Culinary School?

If so, boy howdy, is this the page for you. Here I will be going through the basics of cooking from how to cook safely, basic knife skills and the cooking skills that can elevate you as a home chef, all while spending less time in the kitchen. I have taught these concepts to high school students, I can teech them to you as well!

Check in every other Monday for a new basics topic!
