Well, wow am I'm glad to finally have found this place as I am "trying" to learn how to cook.
FWIW, I'm 47, male, and an attorney not a chef or restauranteur. I'm interested in learning to cook better than PB&J on white bread. At this point I've done a few recipes and have made several dinners for special occasions that have turned out well but were not well received by some of the guests. Disappointing but......
I would like to learn the basics better than I understand them at this point and I will ask the forum questions as needed. My knife skills are horribly awful and I wouldn't know the difference between celeriac and a radish (well, maybe I wouldn't but then again, maybe I would). Eventually that will change but for now that's where I am in the kitchen.
I hope to spend many happy hours reading and participating on this forum while I chase the desire to cook and eat better.
Good eating everyone.
