I get asked a lot of questions about cooking, some pretty basic, and some are very involved. After years of running this blog I realize that there are certain aspects of cooking and recipes that I take for granted, things that I assume everyone knows. Then some one like Chuck tries to read my recipes and comes back with a million questions, and I realize that not everyone is on top of all things cooking. I thought it might be a good idea to go into a bit more detail about cooking basics.
This series will be a once a month series that will run for at least a year, perhaps more. I’d really like to use this series to help new cooks build a strong foundation of information that will last a lifetime.
I’m going to start out very small and hit all of the topics that I think are important. I would also love to hear from you guys, what do you want to know? What are the skills that you want to learn or the random weird questions that you have? Please comment or shoot me an email me. If there is anything that I do not know I will take some time to figure it out or get a professional to help me.
I’m really excited about this series so keep an eye out on the second Tuesday of every month for a new cooking lesson starting tomorrow.


Excellent blog here! Also your web site loads up very fast! What web host are you using? Can I get your affiliate link to your host? I wish my site loaded up as fast as yours lol
Very good written article. It will be useful to anybody who utilizes it, as well as myself. Keep doing what you are doing – looking forward to more posts.
A lot of of the things you point out is astonishingly appropriate and that makes me ponder why I hadn’t looked at this in this light before. Your article truly did turn the light on for me personally as far as this particular subject goes. But there is one particular issue I am not necessarily too comfy with so while I try to reconcile that with the actual main theme of your position, let me observe exactly what the rest of the readers have to point out.Nicely done.
