Im about to move out completely on my own in a few months. I really like to cook but Im scared of having trouble making the time to cook something decent.
Help me come up with ideas for my repertoire!
Hope posts like these are allowed, figured at this stage of the platform, extra content wouldn’t hurt anyone
Cacio e pepe is simple but not easy, although delicious when you nail the technique, and trust me, it’s all technique. It’s the holy union of spaghetti, cheese, black pepper, and maybe some butter or oil, with pasta water to bring it all together. I really think being able to nail a proper cacio e pepe will make you a better cook.
My go to is a simply cooked protein, a simply cooked veggie, and a carb. Season all 3 of these however you like, Mexican spiced, Asian sauced, just salt and pepper will do well in a pinch.
Examples: pan-fried chicken thighs, asparagus, and rice.
-Baked salmon, sautéed brussel sprouts, and bread
-Ground beef, and veggie stir-fry with rice
