Introduction to Cooking
From Wikiversity
It is recommended that The Wikimedia Cookbook be used as a major basis for this page.
What university would be complete without a course on cooking?
Things to consider when making plans (yes, you should have plans!):
- Cost - How big is your food budget? Thinking ahead will help you decide what to buy, whether or not you can buy it in bulk, and possibly even where to look for it.
- Preparation Time - What do you need to do before throwing it in a pot/pan/grill/whatever? Can you prepare a huge batch of the stuff beforehand to be used for multiple meals? What is the minimum amount of time you need before you start the actual cooking? What is the maximum amount of time you can have something prepared before it's too old and you should throw it out?
- Cooking Time - How much time do you want to slave away at the hot stove/grill/whatever? Some foods, like sashimi or frozen microwaveable dinners, do not require much in the way of cooking but require more forethought when it comes to preparation or cost.
