Hello, bees! I like playing around in the kitchen, but I feel like I really have no idea what I’m doing with the fundamentals. I’m enjoying the learn-from-experience process, but am looking for something to supplement. I recently started reading / listening to Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat (by Samin Nosrat). I’m liking it so far, but I am feeling like there are some assumptions made on readers’ understanding. Perhaps there are other helpful materials with different perspectives on covering the basics. Do you have any recommended books, shows, or other material on the absolute basics of cooking?
Salt, fat, and acid is no doubt a great book, but I always find good videos more informstive than cook books, especially for beginners, since videos help you to know how a dish looks like at each step.
Some of my favorite includes food wishes (everything), pasta grammar (italian), vincenzo’s plate (italian), and Wang Gang (Chinese)
