I bought a cookbook, tried a few recipes online, but I haven’t yet been able to get into it because I often have to buy ingredients I have never heard of before, and frankly, have never seen. The preparation time can be crazy!!! On top of all that, my Filipino family has always cooked basic Filipino food, so my wanting to cook is hindered by the fact that the only ingredients available to me are those that my parents are familiar with. Very discouraging for an aspiring cook. For now, all I really want to do is learn the basics to different styles of cooking. I don’t know if that makes any sense. I want to be able to prepare different meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I want to be able to learn recipes that I can use in everyday life. Filipino recipes are more than welcome!!! : )
Fast and easy recipes with cuisine-like results would be great! Is this really possible or just wishful thinking?
