I don’t know how to cook, nobody has ever taught me. I usually avoid watching the cooking channel because it makes me hungry and eat, but could it teach me how to cook if I keep watching all the shows?
Also I a watching Essence of Emeril but there’s no live audience – why did they change it?? He used to serve the food to audience members.

you can pick up a lot of good ideas and technics but to really learn how to cook you need to actually do it.(hands on)

I looked up a recipe for chicken fried steak and it said to cook it in melted shortening, I was wondering if theres any difference between that and regular cooking oil. i have never used shortening before, but any time i have tried to make fried food, it doesnt come out very well. I was wondering maybe that is what I have beeen doing wrong.

oil is better for you, it clogs the arteries less
