Don't be afraid to make mistakes in the kitchen from "summary" of Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat by Samin Nosrat

Making mistakes in the kitchen is not only inevitable but also necessary for growth and learning. It is through trial and error that we truly understand the intricacies of cooking. Each mistake provides valuable feedback that helps us refine our skills and deepen our understanding of the ingredients and techniques. When we fear making mistakes, we limit ourselves and stifle our creativity. We become hesitant to experiment with new flavors or try out unfamiliar recipes. This fear of failure can hold us back from reaching our full potential as cooks. Embracing the possibility of making mistakes allows us to approach cooking with a sense of curiosity and playfulness. In the kitchen, as in life, perfection is not the goal. Instead, we should strive for progress and improvement. By being open to making mistakes, we give ourselves the space to learn and grow. We can develop our intuition and hone our instincts, becoming more confident and skilled cooks in the process. Mistakes are not something to be ashamed of but rather celebrated as valuable learning opportunities. They show us what works and what doesn't, guiding us towards better outcomes in the future. So, don't be afraid to take risks, try new things, and embrace the possibility of making mistakes in the kitchen. It is all part of the journey towards becoming a more knowledgeable and proficient cook.
