There is a saying that goes well, "a look will be scrapped", we usually learn a skill, often like this, obviously see it, and think it is very simple, but when it comes to doing it yourself, it is dumbfounded, and it cannot be done at all, which makes many people very depressed.
This is especially prominent in learning to cook, watching the video in which others teach you to cook, it is just that, but once you do it yourself, it feels completely different, "once you do it, you will be wasted". Let's discuss this matter with you, especially friends who have just begun to learn to cook. Learning to cook is the most taboo "on paper", improve the cooking skills of several keys, kitchen white must be collected.
First, although it is said to be "talking on paper", learning to cook, theory is indeed very important
I have said more than once in previous articles that to do anything, it is not only necessary to "know its nature", but also to "know why it is so", and the same is true for cooking, not only to know how the dish is made, but also to know the principle, otherwise it is still impossible to fundamentally improve cooking skills.
Many operations in cooking are actually the same, such as how to side dishes, how to give ingredients to fishy, grasp the heat, the correct use of various seasonings, how to hook the juice, etc., the principle inside is the same, understand these principles, you can give an example, cooking skills will improve quickly. Therefore, to learn to cook, we must not only look at the specific methods, but also understand the principles, which should be remembered.
Second, the principle is understood, the specific methods have also been learned, why is it still not good?
The next question comes again, let's say a dish, obviously I feel that I have learned, but once I personally start to do it, it feels like it is completely wrong, the steps are the same as others, the reason is also understood, but it feels like it will not be done in an instant, or the dish that is made is completely different from others, ugly and unpalatable, what is the matter?
There are many things involved in this, which is also important to introduce in this article, for many reasons, but there is a key, that is, the lack of practice. The following will list the specific reasons for the failure of this learning to cook, as well as the corresponding solution, the key is still one, that is, we must practice more, everyone patiently look down, and there may be surprises in the end.
Third, why is it that "once you learn, you will do it and then you will give up"? Practice is the key, we must learn to cook in practice
1, learn to cook with others, sometimes what we see, is not real, so you need to practice more
This is put in the front to say, just to make everyone a little confident. We may sometimes see relevant cooking videos on the Internet, in fact, among these people, there are really cooking, there are also that kind of "two knives", it seems that they are doing a good job, in fact, the works are processed, this estimate many people did not expect.
Even if some people really can cook and have real kung fu, but the key point or the key place, he did not express it clearly, so you seem to have learned, in fact, the key place you still did not learn. In my previous articles, especially in the articles on the production of brine food, I have always emphasized the need to teach others the key points, and we must explain the principles, which is the meaning.
Therefore, the same dish, we have to find more different works to see, learn from different people, especially the kind of teacher, we must grasp the focus of this dish, more research, and finally more practice, a long time, the key place to master, then this dish you can eventually learn, in the end, do not be too superstitious about other people's practices, or rely on your own practice, this is not difficult to understand, right?
2, do more practice, more exercise, not mechanically repeat the operation, to learn to study, and finally to learn the real thing
This is important, which brings us to the problem of simple repetition. You can see if the people around you, or the people in your own family, have some made dishes for a lifetime, and the dishes that are finally made are still difficult to eat? Haha, yes, this is a simple duplication of labor.
Although such a person is also cooking every day, but he does not know to delve into, to summarize, to repeat the same operation every day, then he is still the same as before, to say a good sentence, at most, it is the level of the oil seller, "only the hands are familiar", such a practice, what is the use?
For example, I used to learn to make braised pork, and finally I always couldn't do the taste of the smooth and tender Q bomb, the method was the same, that is, I couldn't make this taste, and then the juice hook was still not OK, I couldn't figure it out, and then one day I finally found the trick, that is, the time came, you must have a big fire, quickly collect juice, time to be fast, fire to be big, it is so simple.
You see, this is the need to study in practice, constantly improve, find something wrong in learning, slowly explore, slowly improve, and always have a successful day. Now as long as I make braised pork, my family and relatives and friends like to eat it.
Remember, repetitive work has no meaning, in the process of repetition, constantly find problems and solve problems, this is the right way, this is especially important when learning to cook. To say a little more, we found that no, in many families, men cooking will generally be better than women, the reason is very simple, most men are more fond of studying, that dish is definitely better than women who do not love to study.
3, do not be greedy, a dish to be repeated in a certain period of time, the effect is surprisingly good, and the last dish is your specialty dish
Learn more about the principle of cooking, more practice, more improvement, this is the fundamental way, but there is a very effective skill, here to share with you, that is, in a certain period of time, to repeatedly do a fixed dish, about this piece, it is estimated that many people have not heard of it.
For example, during this time you start to learn to cook, but you don't want to be greedy, don't look at the mountain high, want to learn everything, you learn a dish that everyone in the family loves to eat, such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes. You can also make other dishes, but this tomato scrambled egg you have to do every time, which is equivalent to concentrating on doing big things, just do this one thing, it won't take long, you can taste the sweetness, haha.
People's thinking and muscles are memory function, the more specialized one thing, the more powerful this memory function, my intuitive feeling is like this, this method is easy to improve cooking in a short period of time, you do it every day, do it, plus use dim sum, it will not be difficult to learn. In the end, this dish will become your best dish, and at that time, your sense of achievement will come out of nowhere, this method is not easy to try, do not believe that everyone will try it.
Final summary
The above said so much, in order to facilitate everyone's understanding and memory, and finally make a summary: 1, "a look will be scrapped", which makes many people headaches, the solution is not difficult; 2, learning cooking, the practice is not the focus, the key is to know the principle; 3, the same dish, to see more works of different people, it is best to learn more from the teacher; 4, more practice, practice more research, more improvement; 5, a certain period of time, to learn to repeatedly do the same dish, and finally this is your best dish; 6, I hope that the current kitchen white, in the future, everyone can become a kitchen master, and when the time comes to show others two hands, it is really full of achievement.
