    Find some cooking shows (regular “stand and stir” instructional ones, not reality TV competition type ones) that interest and inspire you to make the recipe shown, then go do it.

    Ideally, try to pick ones that go into the “why”/food science/technique, as opposed to just rote instructions. Alton Brown (Good Eats on TV) and Adam Ragusea (YouTube) are good examples of that.

      Adam Ragusea is pretty fantastic for showing the ‘why’ for sure.

      I also like America’s Test Kitchen, because they do a lot of discussion about why things work and test different conditions to make recipes that are the easiest and clearest they can be. I have yet to have a recipe from their videos or cookbook fail.
