On Tuesday, we made Thai Green Curry.
I was partnered with a far more experienced cook than me and managed to learn a few important skills from him.
Firstly, he taught me how to properly use a knife, which involved me “tucking” fingers into my hands, where I would let my knuckles guide the knife over the item that was being chopped. He also taught me ways to chop an onion, which I should avoid chopping off the root to prevent the release of these substances that would cause people’s eyes to tear up.
These are skills I hope to bring to university with me!
