[quote=Anonymous]You don't sound all that floundering for a novice. Kudos for mastering some go-to recipes. So don't be so hard on yourself. I would highly recommend a knife skills class. Learning a fundamental skill will help a lot. I learned a lot by reading cookbooks and watching shows like America's Test Kitchen. Also listening to chefs...Joel Olsen at L'Academie de Cuisine would talk about buying a huge bag of carrots and cutting them again and again until he had the cuts right. I heard Christopher Kimball speak and he talked about how the "good cooks" that people remember so fondly, really specialized in a few memorable dishes. They weren't masters of Aspic to Zabaglione. So don't feel you have to master everything.[/quote]
