Cooking is often a long process. If the process is not built skillfully, then cooking is not capable of captivating yourself and simply turns into a routine. A culinary master with extensive experience knows how to enjoy the process and have a great result. A novice cook can also be like a fish in water in the kitchen, if he knows where the pitfalls are.
Complex recipes
If you are not yet a master, this is not a reason to be upset, a huge number of delicious dishes have step-by-step instructions.
Your top priority dishes are: burgers and hot dogs with sandwiches, cereals, stews, stews in sauce, soups, all kinds of salads, simple pastries (pies, muffins, cookies).
Master simple recipes and then it will be easier for you to cope with more complex ones.
Atmosphere
If you are disturbed in the kitchen, then nothing good will come of it. Get everyone out of the kitchen with questions and distracting conversations.
Music will come in handy, make tea or any other favorite drink, make it so pleasant for you to be in the kitchen.
The fact is that it is desirable for you to be in the kitchen. This is necessary in order to follow what is happening on the stove or in the oven. Until you have little experience, relying on a timer can be wrong and lead to undesirable consequences.
Favorite treats
Start cooking with what you yourself like to eat. Take care of your taste, and your family will definitely share your love for any well-cooked dish.
Situation
If the kitchen is a mess, there is not enough space and there are no necessary utensils, then cooking in such a place is unlikely to be pleasant.
Prepare the kitchen, clean up and check if you have all the pots and pans you need.
Special dishes
For some dishes, you will need different consumables or inventory. Be sure to study the recipe in advance to be ready.
Some of the consumables you may need are foil, parchment paper for baking, paper towels, disposable dishes, cling film, baking sleeve, craft paper, string or nylon thread, paintbrush, gloves.
A well-thought-out process will definitely end with a wonderful dish, and the time spent in the kitchen will become a rest and a pleasant hobby.
