[quote=Anonymous]I would start with Alton Brown (on Youtube). I <3 Alton and he bases his shows on a technique or idea rather than a super-specific recipe. So you can take the techniques you learn and apply them elsewhere. Just dive in! Can you make pasta (ie boil water and open prego?)? Okay, make pasta and homemade sauce. Baby steps. Can you roast a chicken? I cannot believe the number of people my age who have gone through life without ever having just "shoved a chicken in the oven." I do it once every couple weeks or so and cannot imagine needing to 1, buy a rotisserie chicken, or 2, needing a recipe for it. START with a recipe, sure, but be able to adapt it to whatever you need.[/quote]
