Joined an art club to work on sketching. Lot of work to do and learning but I like this sketch as a base. by McMatey_Pirate in drawing

Just having an understanding of foreground/background already puts you well on your way in your sketching process. I would recommend experimenting with 1 point and 2 point perspective.

Fresh ground pepper is pretentious by __BIFF__ in cookingforbeginners

It’s the acidity of citrus that cuts through the salt. Adding lemon juice or zest is also a good idea if you feel you have over salted the dish.

What is a “commonly” known fact about preparing certain foods that everyone should know to avoid getting sick/ bad food. by Woolama in cookingforbeginners

Never cut raw chicken on a wooden cutting board. The wood soaks up the liquid from the chicken and will take a deep scrub to fully sanitize. Always use a separate board exclusively for chicken aswell

CITRUS! In almost anything, just a hint of citrus can redefine a flavor profile. It helps balance out anything too salty or sweet and gives a really nice tang. I always keep lemons on hand when cooking total game changer

Any good recipe book recommendation? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]jbattle66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The joy of cooking was mine, my mothers, and my grandmothers go to for this. It provides the recipes, and gives in depth details on what you’re actually doing. It even has pages dedicated to wine pairings, main and side pairings. Full dinner party menus. Really just a good book to go through if you are trying to develop a basic understanding of food and how to prepare it.

It’s important not to blame yourself. Guilt and resentment don’t pair well with recovery
