In the end, you just might suck slightly less at cooking.* *Results not guaranteed Review “This book is the antidote to precious food culture, and it’s the first cookbook to ever make me repeatedly LOL. The (anonymous) author turns the expected on its head in a voice that’s perhaps best described as Super Mock Textbook. . . . The recipes herein could become anyone’s favorite go-tos.”-BookPage (starred review) About the Author The YouTuber behind You Suck at Cooking, having gained internet notoriety for his culinary tutorial videos, wrote a book (this book), which he thought would be fun and exciting but was actually difficult and stressful (and fun and exciting). In addition to making videos, he also spends his time petting strangers’ dogs, visualizing stronger shoulders, and carving carrots. Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. INTRODUCTION Humans have been eating food for almost as long as they’ve been alive. Over the past several years, due to the established link between eating food and not dying, food has continued to increase in popularity. I started my YouTube channel to capitalize on that trend. It was January of 2015 on a cold winter night. Or an unseasonably warm winter morning. Or possibly an overcast afternoon since I’m not an early riser. I had been curious about trying to make tutorial videos for a long time.

I was often too intimidated to try making new things simply because I hadn’t tried to do so before. I wrote this book to be very accessible to people who are new to cooking, who might feel a little intimidated, just like I was. In other words, cowards. They say it takes one to know one. And while that’s not true at all, here we are. I learned what I know of cooking from other tutorial videos, books, recipes, and things I gleaned from my mom and my friends, who totally exist. So if anything in this book is wrong, let me know and I’ll pass that along to whoever is actually responsible. Because it’s not me. What I hope you get out of this book is that cooking doesn’t have to be precious or difficult. All you have to do is follow the instructions and then disobey the instructions whenever you feel like it. Most of the time things will turn out great. And if not great, then at least mostly ed
