oh you'll learn. start with the easy stuff and then when ur ready go on to the hard stuff. i find that cooking is not so hard if u try then u will get good results just don't expect to have exellent results the first time round, u gotta keep trying.

cooking isn't that difficult. You don't have to produce restaurant caliber meals for yourself, just learn the basics of how to cook various things. If you learn how to cook two or three basic things, let's say, chicken, fish and beef, you can apply the cooking of these things to countless variations. Also, there's no harm in following a recipe in a cookbook until you're comfortable going it alone. Find things that you like to eat already, pay attention to what you're doing as you follow the recipes and you'll find yourself starting to tweak the recipes to suit your personal tastes. If I had to recommend learning a few basics, those basics would be: roasting a chicken, cooking a steak to the correct level of doneness for your taste and cooking pasta. These are all things that are easy to cook and easy to gauge in terms of doneness. I would also advise that if you're working with the stovetop that you start out with a low to medium temperature setting and add more heat if needed. It's a lot easier to make something hotter than it is to un-burn it.
