When I first started cooking in 1980/1981, I did 90% of things wrong.
1. I never brought things to room temperature 2. Tried cooking everything at warp speed 3. Never prepped anything and tried doing prep while cooking. Disaster 4. Tried cooking everything at once - didn't know how to pace the items 5. Didn't season meat enough with salt 6. Didn't know how to layer flavors 7. Never used fresh herbs, which get added at the end 8. Added dry herbs late and didn't get the proper flavoring. 9. Didn't use ingredients like sherry or marsala or corn starch to create sauces. 10. Never used a meat thermometer. 11. Used old cookware and improper pans 12. Never steamed veggies, boiled to death 13. Always veggies in a can 14. Tried mixing unique flavors while cooking before testing and tasting, leading to some shitty tasting and even non edible meals. 15. Didn't know how to use cream in cooking 16. Grilled only meat and missed out on veggies and other items. 17. Didn't stir fry. Then in 1990 I bought a really nice house with a buddy, we did a huge remodel as he was a builder and built an incredible kitchen. It was a wild batchelor pad with top notch amenities. It was then that I decided to learn how to cook. I read recipes, got advice from friends, family and chefs, read books on cooking and began to change how I did things. In a very short time, I went from a 2 to an 7 in terms of my cooking and grilling skills. I have really tightened things up since then and I am a 8.5 at best. There are some things I don't do like making bread or pizza dough or bake at all. I have never cooked fish, just some things like shrimp. I have never cooked or smoked ribs. Never cut up a side of beef. Only cooked a whole chicken once. Never cooked a leg of lamb or rack of lamb even though I love both. Never did an osso buco. Never made a meatloaf or pot pie or casserole. I just seem to focus on things I do well. |

Feeling lazy so I'm keeping it simple later
Just dressing up a humble Maruchan chicken ramen with real chicken broth, sriracha, scallion, cilantro, fat squeeze of lime, shrimp and some leftover rotisserie chicken... dirt simple but packed with flavor |

https://www.hy-vee.com/aisles-online...B&gclsrc=aw.ds I love the stuff in a pinch and don't want to cook much. Being it's not planned I don't have other ingredients like what you're doing, but maybe sometime. |

Its kinda close to what I'm doing, but I'd say what I'm doing is closer to a knockoff Tom Yum soup... I made an authentic version of it a week or so ago using a packet of Tom Yum paste from the Asian grocery store 30 miles away |

Late on this one, but oven or slow cooker caramelized onions work really well and are difficult to **** up.
