Back to Basics
For the first time on the Do You Even Cook, Bro? blog we're doing a themed month. For the entirety of April I'll be dropping some of the most basic and necessary culinary knowledge needed to get cooking. This means things like knife skills, the five mother sauces, and under-utilized techniques will be covered with multiple recipe tie-ins.
In fact, I will be adding a page solely dedicated to these techniques on the blog, ever-so creatively titled: Basic Skills. Eventually, this area will be replete with information on stuff like how to dice an onion, julienne a carrot, make a velouté, in addition to charts showing average times for blanching, searing, etc.
Now you'll have a place to look for the basics instead of having to dig through dozens of video recipes hoping to catch a technique on camera. Putting all the prep work and simple stuff in one place will make you a more informed cook, as well as allow me to devote more time in videos to the advanced techniques that really deserve attention.
I hope you continue to enjoy the blog as we go back to the basics this April.
