I do have to apologize.  This page is a work in progress. But…..

I tend to get a lot of questions from friends and family about cooking some basic things. I tend to spice the basics up a little.  My  basic starter for hamburgers has more than just meat in it.  My chicken stock is wonderful, so much better than the stuff you get at the market.  I feel that cooking the basics well gives you a sense of pride and accomplishment.

I fell that a basic cook should be able cook a chicken, make chicken stock, spaghetti sauce, grill a steak, and even make salad dressing, hamburger, scrambled eggs, roasted garlic, green beans, broccoli,

Cook pasta and rice, hard boil eggs, fry eggs, bake a potato, make an omelet , egg salad,
