I'm still a beginner. Breakfast foods are one thing, but dinner dishes are another. Doesn't help that to this day I'm quite picky with food. Hopefully this channel will help me get started and break past those boundaries.
The thing that scares me most learning to cook is food safety. I didn't know the rule about not thawing chicken in hot water, and my friend looked at me like I was crazy, which made me start wondering how many other simple 'rules' I'm not aware of.
Your videos are the most simple and you explain slow and easy. You should continue to make videos as you’re inspiring me and teaching us the simple stuff. I’m So excited for this channel and see how much it’s gonna grow. I really love how simple you make it on all your videos THANK YOU!!!
I really like your channel. My difficulty comes with even/outer cooked meat (HIGH, MEDIUM, and LOW). How long each of them takes, and properly servicing your guest the meet of his preference. Thank you!
I’m a beginner cooker as well I’m learning all of this , my problem is I’m heavy handed and I can’t tell when the food is done I be scared that ima burn it or something
Best thing to get is an instant-read thermometer. Also have an area you can bring your food on the stove that has no heat. Then when you have things under control you can bring your pan back to the heat. Keep cooking!
Question for everyone learning to cook, what are you struggling with cooking? What kind of skills, techniques, or recipes would you like to see on my channel? Thank You Everyone for Subscribing and Giving a thumbs up... the channel is starting to grow!
Struggling with finding the spark to want to cook. Living off of unhealthy microwaved fast food I’ve always been a lazy cook. How can I learn to love cooking? I never cook unless I need to and it’s never healthy. If I could want to make healthy foods you would definitely change my life.
@@stephaniealanis2221 Personally I found the "spark" the moment I cooked by myself, not when someone told me to cook. I liked being able to experience and try out new techniques, recipies and ways to make food and learn about food culture in different countries. There are also a lot of different kinds of vegan recipes out there that I totally recommend, but don't start with anything too complicated since failing will lead to frustration which can lead to giving up on cooking as a whole.
How to pick produce from the store. - What to keep stocked in a small pantry and how to organize it. - Ground Beef (not formed into meat balls or patties but cooked as lose ground beef) recipes that don't repackage Tacos/Chili/Spaghetti/Sloppy Joes. - How to cook/grill Non charred Medium well steaks and hamburgers and still keep them juicy (most people focus on rare GROSS) - Why is food cooked in my Instant Pot always bland and a lot of times mushy ish in texture? - How to use canned vegetables instead of just plopping them on the plate as a side - How to make having to cook everyday not overwhelming especially when you don't like doing it and not a fan of your own cooking - How to build a menu and grocery list for the week so it's not overwhelming - skills like Juliann, cube, mince, slice, other common cooking terms-
I feel lucky that from the age of 18 to 28 I worked as a butcher, so I've gotten comfortable with knifes and just mastering all cuts of protein. I'd love to become a good home cook one day to be able to create my own recipes and experiment.
I recently became a housewife and need to learn meal plans and cooking, well, anything! I can do somethings, but I need to cook 3 meals a day, and I am stuck. 5 years now and I still have no clue! Help!!!
I never did learn to cook (that well, simple things yes but as I said they are simple lol) and I for some reason never had the desire to cook til now. And I’m a new subscriber .
I’m still learning. I keep trying, but every time I try a recipe it’s either to salty or bland. I’m a very picky eater and I don’t like nothing that’s good for you.
I constantly struggle with trying to cook, failing, and then having to throw away hundreds of dollars worth of food then have to resort to buying take out food just to eat something that day. It’s really frustrating
I really want to make sure I’m getting all the proper nutrition in my food. But I don’t like veggies that much. 😅 I always tend to focus on the meat. Also, I have trouble thinking of what to cook next. And I tend to get overwhelmed with all the choices and recipes online.
One thing i learned most people don't do when following recipes is don't sweat it keep trying and trying and also taste your food with each new ingredient you put together to make the final dish. When i see new cooks do it they don't even taste the food for each step cause most of the time the recipes is not going to be for your liking so you might have to tweak it a little bit.
Ok, so I can cook noodles and soup, I can cook rice, I can chop vegetables for the most part, I've cooked a burger on a pan twice, but I feel like there's other basics I need such as meat
Thanks a lot. I was told all the time as a little boy from my old man and I qoute, "Learn to cook boy because one of these days you'll find yourself a lazy woman" haha. I will be watching more vids and I'm very excited to learn.
It's quite a surprise that the vast majority of people who watched this are teenagers.. including me. I excepted a more older audience for this sort of video. Well, considering the fact that said teens are supposed to be more likely to watch mindless videos in various platforms, One of them being Tik Tok, Instagram, tweeter... the list goes on. All I'm saying is that, I really am proud of you guys! No matter what the reason is.. I respect you.
Thank you for this video!! I'm moving in with my boyfriend soon, I'm a very picky eater and I've eaten the same things since I was a kid, I don't usually try new food. But I want to learn to cook for him and make his favorite foods so I can try them and we can eat together. I'll definitely be watching your channel a lot!!
My mom told me I was an idiot and stupid and I'm the reason why she is late everyday.. because I made oatmeal wrong 1 day. Yeah she doesn't spend like 3 hours putting on her stupid makeup, sure, it's because she refused to tell me how to make oatmeal. Smh
Thank you I had a brain stroke with total memory loss & cognitive delay 3.5 years ago n cooking is one of the hardest things I dont remember how to cook. I have dystonia in my hands n I can't hold a knife for long or cut things very well. I like chicken n my friend said that she was baking a chicken breast but I dont know how ? Do I pound it to make it thinner? I usually buy chicken tenderloins but I bought breasts instead because they were cheaper.
I have a question what if your starting to cook chicken for example and your grossed out by it but your parents season the chicken but you cook it but you can't do the preparation because you grossed out by it ? For me I have no cooking skills nor do I have any technique and my cooking is not consistent it never is consistent really cuz I never cook that much at all I did it a few times and they all fail especially with the preparation part, and I even done Fried Chicken once and that did not go well because the inside was still pink and the coating was peeling off either by too much coating or too much heat and every time I cook the food that Mother season I tend to add a little bit more what I needed.
I'm in a similar boat. Raw chicken can make me gag. Nasty stiff. It helps me to use tongs to transfer it. For the smell, I can use a "covid" mask with a little pouch of dry coffee grounds in it, so I smell coffee instead of chicken. The only way I have been able to cook chicken without it being over or undercooked (especially when it's hard to see color in a poorly lit room and I'm scared it's raw even if it shreds right but don't want it chewy) so far is: bring a pot of water to boil (enough water to cover the chicken pieces, but not much more so it doesn't spill over) (visually boiling enough that a child would call it boiling), then use tongs (so it doesn't splash and you don't have to touch it) to drop in raw unfrozen/defrosted chicken tenders (nothing on them) (if you don't have tenders, you can slice up whatever chicken you have into a general tender size), let them boil (don't change the temp, just keep it where you had it) with no lid for exactly 10min with a timer, remove them with the tongs placing the super white unseasoned tenders into/onto whatever heat safe dish you have, let them cool for a while until they are just warm and you can eat it without blowing on the food while it's already in your mouth (so they finish cooking through). Done. You can eat it as is, or add different pieces to different dishes when you know what to cook with them. If I use them in another dish, I cook the dish first (without the chicken), tear the tenders into smaller pieces, then toss them in the pan of flavors with the dish at the very end just to warm up the chicken and mix it into the meal without losing moisture (don't want chewy meat).
Y'all always ask for comments. I want to tell you why I want to learn to cook, but honestly not from you. It's nothing personal, but you're energy level is so mellow it made me sleepy. My parents are teachers. You have to make people get excited if they're going to learn from you. God bless you in your efforts.

Try to focus on the ingredients that you do like. As you get more comfortable you might want to try new foods.

Ya its a real thing for sure!
Why mustn't you thaw it in hot water?
@@Don-pk2uy because you will cook the outside of the chicken in hot water and the inside will still be frozen

LOL some people think im to slow to watch.
I really like your channel. My difficulty comes with even/outer cooked meat (HIGH, MEDIUM, and LOW). How long each of them takes, and properly servicing your guest the meet of his preference. Thank you!
You really should get an instant read thermometer.
Personally I think my issues with learning to cook is I'm kinda scared im going to burn the house down
Just leave an empty burner so you can take the pan off the heat if its getting out of control.
Hi, I created a course for people learning how to cook. Cooking Basics... check it out! homecookbasics.com/cooking-basics-course/

i fail at details like how hot does the pan need to be, when to put stuff in, etc.
I struggle with making grocery lists for the week, cutting vegetables, cooking chicken, and temperature when cooking.

Thats cool, cooking is the easy part. Just keep doing it and it will become second nature. Salt, acid and heat is what makes things taste good!
I really enjoy Mexican American food, I will be watching you more in the future
That's great maybe we will get into some fajitas!
Not gonna lie, if you had a blonde pony tail you’d be the Tiger King Cook
I’m about to move in w my bf in like 5 months so I have a decent amount of time to practice before perfecting my craft 😅😅
That's great, practice makes better food!
Nice! Never forget seasoning!!

I have a question what if your starting to cook chicken for example and your grossed out by it but your parents season the chicken but you cook it but you can't do the preparation because you grossed out by it ?
For me I have no cooking skills nor do I have any technique and my cooking is not consistent it never is consistent really cuz I never cook that much at all I did it a few times and they all fail especially with the preparation part, and I even done Fried Chicken once and that did not go well because the inside was still pink and the coating was peeling off either by too much coating or too much heat and every time I cook the food that Mother season I tend to add a little bit more what I needed.
Lol. Tf dude
Unless you start cooking and preparing the food by yourself, the inconsistencies won't go away.
I'm in a similar boat. Raw chicken can make me gag. Nasty stiff. It helps me to use tongs to transfer it. For the smell, I can use a "covid" mask with a little pouch of dry coffee grounds in it, so I smell coffee instead of chicken.
The only way I have been able to cook chicken without it being over or undercooked (especially when it's hard to see color in a poorly lit room and I'm scared it's raw even if it shreds right but don't want it chewy) so far is: bring a pot of water to boil (enough water to cover the chicken pieces, but not much more so it doesn't spill over) (visually boiling enough that a child would call it boiling), then use tongs (so it doesn't splash and you don't have to touch it) to drop in raw unfrozen/defrosted chicken tenders (nothing on them) (if you don't have tenders, you can slice up whatever chicken you have into a general tender size), let them boil (don't change the temp, just keep it where you had it) with no lid for exactly 10min with a timer, remove them with the tongs placing the super white unseasoned tenders into/onto whatever heat safe dish you have, let them cool for a while until they are just warm and you can eat it without blowing on the food while it's already in your mouth (so they finish cooking through).
