Something that changed how you cook, a tip most people don't know or something you discovered yourself. Or even something that you just think is cool.

      Biggest thing too is, have fun with it and carry deep down in your heart that it'll be fine. If you're stretching your comfort zone and it doesn't work out as planned, roll with the ounchedand improvise a fix. You're making food for yourself so you already like the core concept, worse thing that can happen is you get a bad version of something you like. It's really hard to accidentally make food you totally hate, so allow yourself to fuck up, cause you totally will over and and over but if you have a solid grasp on the fundamentals it's super easy to know exactly what you did wrong that time and what to do next time.

      Maybe I'll do some kinda weekly cooking lesson thing on here actually. I'm sure if I have it in my mind to jot a few quick notes when I do stuff at work or home thst could be useful I can keep a steady flow of useful info, I think I'd have to make my own gifs of me cutting things cause I don't trust anyone else to be right about it cause I have a technique that's frankly better than pros will show you for a few things. It's hard to find much that bridges the gap between The Menu (2022) and some weirdo who decided they're good at cooking and started a YouTube.
