#39: The oldest cliché in the book: Practice makes perfect
The best way to learn to cook is by doing it. Even with all this advice, you’ll need to get into your kitchen and whip something up to get good at it. Making the same thing a few times will also help you master the concepts. Don’t be scared to go for it!
There are so many recipes online, and you can make anything you want! Some even offer the option of entering in ingredients you have on hand to help you decide what to make. And don’t be scared to substitute if you need to! Lots of herbs are interchangeable, and most meats can be subbed for another version.
