How to cook. 10 pointers?!


Question: How to cook. 10 pointers?
I am 11 and I really really want to learn how to cook so any tips on how I can

Answers:

depends on what your cooking? lets start with scrambled eggs for example:

1.Break 2 eggs into a bowl

2.Whisk eggs with salt and pepper to taste.

3.In a heavy skillet over medium heat, melt 1 to 2 tablespoons of butter.

4.When the butter stops foaming, reduce heat to medium-low.

5.Add the eggs to the hot pan.

6.After a minute or 2, when the bottom and edges have begun to cook and solidify, scrape and lift the edges with a spatula and allow the uncooked part to run under the part lifted. Fold cooked parts towards the center.

7.Repeat the scraping, lifting, and folding until the egg has formed curds. More stirring will make small curds and less will make larger, fluffier curds.

8.When the curds are firm but still moist, remove to plates or serving dish. They will continue cooking after they leave the pan.

Tips:

1.For lighter eggs, add about a tablespoon of milk, water, or cream for each egg.

2.For extra flavor and texture, add minced vegetables and/or ham to the butter and sauté for a few minutes before adding the eggs.



VOILA! :)

you might ask a older sister brother mother father someone who could help



I started cooking in Home-ec class, when I was 11. But if they don't have it at your school then start small. Ask your mom/dad to help you too. Start with small things like eggs, then cookies, and so on.
And NEVER leave the oven/stove unsupervised!

first talk to your parents, then find a simple recipe or cook book to follow. Please start small, don't want you to hurt yourself.



Ask your mom to start you out...The best way to learn is join her in the kitchen while she cooks.........
