Me, a chef? Well, yes, thanks to America’s Test Kitchen

I am not a good cook. I’m impatient, lazy and too easily throw in the towel when challenged. I could never be a professional chef; no fish nor bones would touch my plate.

If I attempt a recipe and it fails, it’s doubtful I will try again. When I watch my friends cook, they are quick. They chop vegetables, trim meat, measure ingredients and have dinner simmering in no time. For me, chopping an onion or slicing tomatoes takes forever.
