Tutorial Thursday - Epicurious

 We are going back to Tutorial Thursdays. We used to do this when we first started the blog. This month they are going to be Tutorials that we found useful. And this is going to be all about food. This first post is about Epicurious on Youtube. Youtube is almost everyone's go to for tutorials and Epicurious has some great ones. Of note, they have a series that takes one thing and basically talks about how to do it. For example they have How to Frost Every Cake, or How to Crack Every Nut. These may not be the most useful in your day to day life but they are very educational should you want to try your hand at Cake Decorating or if you don't know how to crack some of your favourite nuts.


They do have other more useful ones like How to Open Every Shell Fish, How to Filet Every Fish, or How to Slice Every Fruit. These are great to know and they are nice for advance learners when it comes to cooking. If you want the freshes fish, especially shell fish, you need to know how to open them and care for them. So that is a great skill to know and it encourages home cookes to buy the freshest fish they can find.


But the reason I absolutely love this channel is because they have the basics too. I found thier videos really useful when I started cooking and especially when I started getting the HelloFresh boxes and seeing things I had never worked with or cooked before. My favourite is How to Chop Every Vegetable. And this will help you explore new produce and be able to get the most out of them and the video even suggests recipes to use them in.


They also have some for drinks! You can watch How To Make Every Cocktail and How To Make Every Coffee!
