Cooking requires patience and perseverance from "summary" of The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry by Kathleen Flinn

As you embark on your culinary journey, you will quickly realize that cooking is not merely a series of steps to follow in a recipe. It is a craft that demands your time, effort, and most importantly, your patience. In the chaos of the kitchen, where pots bubble and pans sizzle, it can be easy to lose sight of the bigger picture. But it is in those moments of chaos that you must remind yourself to slow down, take a breath, and trust the process. Just like a fine wine that takes time to mature, your culinary skills will also need time to develop. You cannot rush the process of learning how to properly chop an onion or master the art of making a perfect soufflé. It takes practice, trial and error, and a whole lot of patience. There will be times when you burn a dish or undercook a steak, but it is in those moments of failure that you must persevere. You must pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and try again. Cooking is a journey of self-discovery, where you will learn not only about food but also about yourself. It will test your limits, push you out of your comfort zone, and challenge you to keep going even when the going gets tough. It is in those moments of struggle that you must dig deep and find the strength to carry on. Remember, Rome was not built in a day, and neither will your culinary skills be. So, as you stand in the kitchen, surrounded by a mountain of ingredients and a pile of dirty dishes, remember that cooking is not a sprint, but a marathon. It is a labor of love that requires dedication, persistence, and above all, patience. So take your time, savor the process, and trust that with every chop, stir, and taste, you are one step closer to becoming the chef you aspire to be.
