Learn To Cook: 12 Basic Skills Everyone Should Know

Roasted

2. Scramble an Egg. This should be the first cooking skill every person learns. They should literally teach it in kindergarten. Not only is beating an egg the basis and the starting point of so many recipes, but mastering the second part of the operation—actually cooking the eggs—ensures that you're never more than five minutes away from your next meal.
3. Make an Omelet. It's true that if you can make scrambled eggs, you can also make an omelet. But more importantly, you should make an omelet. Why let that skill go to waste?
4. Make Pancakes. And rounding out our trifecta of breakfast foods you can also serve for dinner, we give you pancakes! Is it a coincidence that the first step in making pancakes happens to be beating an egg?
5. Make a Salad. Who says cooking means getting things hot? Well yes, technically it does mean that. Still, even though making a green salad does not involve heating anything up, it absolutely does involve taking ingredients and doing something to them to turn them into a meal—even if that something is merely washing, peeling, slicing, chopping, and then tossing them together in some sort of dressing.
6. Make a Hamburger. Meat-lovers rejoice! Your time on the list has arrived. And if we're talking basic cooking skills, what meat is more basic than a hamburger?
7. Grill a Steak. The same reasoning applies to steaks as it does to burgers, with the added incentive of, steaks are expensive. Good ones, anyway. And if you're going to spend a lot of money on a piece of meat, you'd hate to ruin it by overcooking it, not letting it rest or otherwise abusing it.
8. Roast a Chicken. If a grilled steak is the ultimate cookout food, a roasted a chicken is the ultimate family dinner. Featuring both dark meat and white, combining fall-off-the-bone tenderness with salty, crispy skin, a roasted chicken doesn't just delight your palate and fill your belly, it satisfies all your senses.
9. Roast a Roast. Even more so than roasting a chicken, which needs to be trussed even if nothing else, a roasted rib of beef or pork loin is the ultimate in "cooking while not really doing anything."
10. Make a Pan Sauce. And now that you've roasted your roast or your chicken, will you (a) serve it just as it is, lonesome and unadorned, or (b) accompanied by a rich, savory pan sauce that you will whip up in five minutes using the juices at the bottom of the roasting pan?
11. Chop an Onion. Whether you end up chopping many onions over the course of your kitchen adventures or just a few, you will undoubtedly benefit from knowing how to do it the right way, if for no other reason than it may save you a trip to the emergency room.
