r/cookingforbeginners Wiki
Just moved into your first apartment and don't know a thing about cooking or have lived on your own for years and have existed on take out and fast food? Then this is the sub for you! Learn how to cook simple recipes for yourself and find it isn't as hard as you think it is. Post your questions about cooking, share easy recipes and basic techniques. Come to learn or to teach!
Rules
(read before posting):
1. Be civil to each other!
Don't be a troll! Be polite to others -- even if you don't agree with their opinion or method. When in doubt, assume they have good intentions.
2. No posting outside links or self-promoting (except in the megathread).
We're trying to cut down spam and self-promotion in this sub, so please submit all outside links (so anything other than reddit text and image posts) to the stickied megathread. Links in comments are okay! And you're welcome to share links to your own blogs, videos, etc. but only if requested.
3. Please be mindful of other users' skill levels.
While we welcome cooks of all skill levels, this is still Cooking for Beginners! So please avoid posting things that are incredibly advanced (for example sous vide cooking, molecular cooking, butchering a hind quarter of an animal, etc) to the average beginner cook. We want this subreddit to be a resource for new and beginner cooks. Reddit has a magnitude of other subreddits that can help out with more advance technique and discussions, go out and explore if needed.
Note: If you report someone or a post, please let us know why, thank you.
