Cooking for beginners

Many people say they can't cook, but everyone can actually cook. It's just a matter of getting started, so here are some tips when it comes to cooking for beginners. It is not necessary to have a fully equipped kitchen but some things you should have that make cooking easier for beginners:

1. two or three pans of different sizes.
2. a frying pan.
3. slightly different utensils such as whisk, saucepan, potato peeler and knives.
4. Kitchen appliances can be done without but a hand mixer for example is good to have.
5. A simple cookbook with the type of food you want to cook.

As you learn more, you will notice what more you need. In the market there are as many utensils and kitchen appliances to buy, but it is unnecessary to buy things that you may not use. Cooking for beginners does not mean that you should buy semi-finished products and heat or powder food that you mix with water and whisk together.

Cooking means learning to use fresh and fine ingredients. You will also soon learn how to use spices. In the beginning, it can of course be a little wrong, but everyone does wrong in the beginning, so it does nothing. The most important thing is that you know what you eat and that you know what the food contains.

I give examples of meatballs: why buy ready-made meatballs when it's so easy to roll yourself. You can even fry them in the oven in the long pan instead of in the frying pan. You can experiment with spices you like. You know exactly what your meatballs contain and don't need to read the table of contents and discover strange numbers and letters that you don't know what they mean.
