This is what they said, grilled cheese sandwich with fried egg. How to start your culinary journey, from frying eggs and sautéing pasta to roasting chickens and making soup. I've been cooking at home for a decade and, honestly, I'm still pretty basic. Sometimes I'm embarrassed that I haven't stopped grilling chickens and simmering beans, but right now, the basics aren't a crutch, it's useful.

Consider it a road map to competition in the kitchen, a few pages from the home cooking grammar manual of the dialect I speak. Not sure where to buy food right now? Restaurants are becoming markets and many farms offer CSA boxes. Fresh produce and meat and eggs from small producers taste more like them and make simple meals tastier, and if you can afford to support small producers right now, it's a great way to help the entire food system.

It's great to know how to cook a whole chicken, although simply roasting a whole chicken will take longer to cook than this method. However, if you don't cook that may seem a bit ridiculous, the more time you spend cooking, the more sense it will make.
Before you start cooking, you should find out in what order you will prepare the parts of the dinner, how long each item will take and when you should start cooking them. The trickiest part of making stir-fries is cooking the meat (or meat substitute), since it will take much longer to cook than the rest of the stir-fry.
