How to Boil Water

Turn on the stove top, get a pot and fill it half full with water. Stand and watch it come to a boil. All kidding aside, cooking is not difficult. When I was teaching my daughter how to cook, I always told her if you can read, you can cook. No truer words have been spoken when it comes to cooking. So many young ladies getting married do not know how to cook and to me that is very sad. The old adage 'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach' is very true. I have talked to many young people, boys and girls and they have told me they are afraid to learn to cook, I look at them and ask why. Most answer because they are afraid of getting burned or being laughed at when they cook. This is sad and not a good reason not to learn to cook cast iron wok.

Please if you do not know how to cook, learn. It is a wonderful stress reliever and it is a lot of fun, plus the praises you will get makes it all worth while. My number one tip is to get familiar with your kitchen, learn about it, all of it, from the stove top to the dishwasher. Learn the herbs and where you can use them in cooking, along with the different sizes and shapes of the pots and pans. Number two is to learn the lingo of cooking, such as what saute means or searing steaks. Once you have mastered what dredge in flour means, you are on your way to becoming a good cook flatware set.

When starting a new recipe, I always follow the directions to a tee. Then I will add or subtract what I think will make the recipe better. Though I have been cooking since I could see over the stove top, do not do this until you are more seasoned. Start small, don't try to make a souffle, it will fail and could do harm to your ego. Learn how to boil that water, and then maybe eggs. That is easy to learn. There are so many different cook books out there for the beginner cook. Buy them and study them, as they are full of all kinds of information. Get one that tells you the different cuts of meat, poultry, fish, cheeses and herbs. Once you have mastered basic cooking you are ready to enjoy cooking the more complex recipes.
