I would probably watch a youtube channel that focused more on how to improvise in cooking than how to follow a recipe, along with pointing out various useful techniques and pitfalls to avoid.
Hell, this might actually already exist. I confess I've never really looked.
I've looked and haven't found anything to my satisfaction. I found that pretty much all channels either give you too much details in way too much of a robotic way or they don't go deep enough into a subject. I'm not gonna say I'm gonna have a easy time finding the middle ground myself, but I do feel there's still a place for that on YouTube and at least I feel I have the required knowledge for that.
Well feel free to drop a DM to me directly when you get it up and running and I'll give it a look, for sure.
I will do. Currently writing, editing and such will be a whole new and different beast. Don't expect anything soon haha
Adam Ragusea is good for that.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Adam and he's done a great job at demystifying a lot of what cooking is. I still do feel his channel is still leaning a bit too heavily on the assumption people have some cooking knowledge. When he goes into a topic he does thst super well, but he doesn't offer the basic and broad knowledge I seek to offer.
What about Kenji Lopez-Alt?
I think he gives a lot of great detail on techniques like braising, deglazing, etc. but in an approachable way. Maybe you see some things you think you could improve on, but his channel seems like a great place to use as a reference for the kind of content you're aiming for.
