[quote=Anonymous]Do you have a friend or family member that cooks? How about asking them to cook with you a few times, so that you can learn the techniques? I do this with friends whose food I like - bring a bottle of wine or whatever, plus offer to buy the ingredients. Pick a dinner you like and want to make yourself, an easy one. Have them over, or you go over there, and make dinner together, asking questions as you go. Split the meal. Make the same thing again and again for dinner (your family will live) until you've got it down. Then try something else. You'll build skill in different techniques (roasting, pan frying, stewing, etc.) and then can use those techniques on different ingredients. Really, the hardest part is just jumping in and experimenting. Sometimes it won't work. Oh well. A lot of times it will taste good![/quote]
