it's all in the wrist kid!. I've been a chef for 30 years and it will happen!. The idea is that it is one fluid motion!. You bring your arm back to you slightly, with the elbow bent and locked, then shuffle the food forward, catching it on the way down!.
In time you'll be doing omelets, whole skillets full of sauteed veggies, etc!. Practice at home!. Put a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in a clean skillet and flip it over the counter!.
You need confidence that's all!.
And by the way, it is not just for show, although a grilled cheese sandwich flip might be a showy part!.
It actually turns all the loose veggies you are sauteing quickly and with a minimum of disruption!.
But get the sandwiches down first or stock up on paper towels!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
