Is there no depth to cooking or am I on Mount Stupid? Is there anything particularly challenging to prepare?

¿Que?

Look up veal or chicken pojarski.

Try preparing and eating pufferfish without killing yourself. Alternatively, mushroom gathering.

Anything classically French will fuck your face, you pleb. Also, would love to watch you try to filet a fish.

Most cooking, especially home cooking, is super simple. It's just that even very intelligent people often turn into complete idiots in the kitchen and overthink things.

There are basic techniques, and then it's a matter of experience, and learning to use your senses. Learning how to properly season and combine flavors takes a bit of talent. (Yes, most people are terrible at seasoning, even when it comes to something as simple as adding salt.)

It's fucking easy.

Even the hardest exquisite over-the-top kind of shit requires very little practice when compared to other hobbies/activities and some easy memorization.

Being a famous chef is a matter of luck, connections and image mostly. Really not that different from other bullshit like fashion designers etc.

Honestly cooking is super easy. You can learn almost everything you'll ever need for homecooking in a few months.maybe baking and certain high level things are difficult but you can passively learn to be a good cook with almost no effort. The only reason most people don't do it is because it takes time and effort.

What's the deal with tomatos?

>Being a famous chef is a matter of luck, connections and image mostly.

sorry but you are full of shit, if you look at the greats (not food network celebrities) you will see very smart and innovative men

Just because you can cook something, doesn't mean you can cook it well

There's a fine line between adequate, and great when it comes to food.

cooking rice without a rice cooker

not so good with how words and stuff work, huh?

This always looked like a pretty challenging dish to me

Perfectly acceptable use of language

Are you an ESL? Because you sound like an idiot

Nah it's ez af literally just doing the right things at the right time.

This. Cooking takes vastly less skill than other trades, and even less when compared to actual arts.

There's a reason it's a job ex-cons and high school dropouts flock to, and why cooks/chefs get paid absolute shit. It's the bottom of the barrel, career wise.

Modernist Cuisine and other such molecular gastronomy exists especially for faggots such as yourself.

...

But even that isn't all that "Difficult". Complicated? Sure. It also might require specialized equipment. But because of the scientific background & procedures there's no guesswork to it. It's precise and methodical.

In my opinion, there are 3 challening things in cooking:
1) finding ingredients of exceptional quality
2) time management & ability to handle stress in a hot cramped kitchen during a busy rush
3) certain tasks requiring a lot of dexterity. For example: some kinds of sushi. boning out a whole cooked fish and then reassembling it for presentation without the diner being able to tell the bones were removed.
