i need to learn how to cook.

okay so i work in hospitality and i also studied food tech every year in highschool but for some reason i still cant fkn cook. like i will proceed to overcook chicken because i have an irrational fear of eating raw chicken. i don't know how im ever gonna move out if i still can't cook meat without literally shaking. i may just become a vegetarian 

like obviously i can cook 2 min noodles... but i think my sodium intake may kill me. i can make pasta (as long as there is no meat involved) but im actually so jealous of my mum because she is an INCREDIBLE cook. i think i should practice more. maybe 2025 will be the year i finally cook the recipes on my pinterest board... will keep this blog updated

If you're worried about undercooking meat, you might want to try buying a meat themometer! It might help you get some peace of mind to know for sure that the meat has reached a temperature that would kill all the bacteria.

But going vegeratian is also a nice option! There are so many tasty veggie-based meals, especially when you have some good spices. Getting a microwave steamer has also really helped me easily prepare veggies.

There are also some good ways to lower your sodium intake when eating noodles. I personally like halving the soup base and adding some eggs and green onions :)
