You’re Probably Using the Wrong Heat
Why your food burns, undercooks, or falls flat even when you follow the recipe
If You Can’t Take The Heat, Turn It Down.
Most people don’t realize this, but the reason their food keeps turning out inconsistent has nothing to do with the recipe they’re following.
It’s the heat causing the kerfuffle.
The garlic that turns bitter before anything else is ready… Eggs that go from soft to rubbery in seconds! The chicken that looks done on the outside but isn’t even close inside. Those sadly are not random mistakes, BUT to an untrained eye and not understanding the fundamentals of cooking, it seems imminent.
We’re taught what to cook... We’re taught ingredients, timing, even plating. But almost no one is REALLY taught how to control heat, which is the one thing shaping everything happening in the pan.
Once you understand that, cooking stops feeling unpredictable. You’re not reacting anymore. You’re intentional and deciding how your meal will turn out.
