'There's a fly in my soup!' gets an overhaul! New look! New strategy! New content!

I am confident to say that I am a decent cook nowadays but that wasn't always the case. Like most people not studying to be a chef but who loves to cook, I didn't receive any formal education in the culinary art of cooking nor did I have a sweet grandma to teach me. I had to learn the skills and terms myself. It wasn't always easy and the disasters were sometimes of epic proportions. The biggest problem I constantly faced was not learning how to ‘debone a chicken’ or ‘clean a fish’ but actually finding information regarding any aspect of cooking from a singular reliable source. The internet is a goldmine of information but it is so spread out across the web that finding everything you need in one place is nearly impossible.  This just made cooking tedious, time consuming and less fun.

I have found a couple of prober websites offering information regarding cooking for the novice but the same stupid problem arose every time. You had to either buy their book or pay per view much like pornography in order to receive ANY information at all. Feeling deflated was inevitable.

This gave me an idea to change my current blog from restaurant reviews and complex but amazing recipes to something simpler and more desired. A quick and easy one stop blog for both seasoned cooks and beginners to be able to find any information regarding cooking at a singular reliable source.

This blog will be simple, easy and unique, because it will lead the cook infallibility from the handling of raw ingredients, through each essential step of a recipe, to the final creation of a delicate confection.  We will cover basic cooking topics such as safety, tools and equipment, preparation, fixing cooking disasters, measurements, conversions and understanding ingredients only to name a few.   

If you are a food lover and would like to learn how to cook starting at the bare basics for beginners or feeling confident to take on advanced cooking and becoming a master chef in your own kitchen then this blog is definitely for you.
