Oftentimes the success is in the details, but if we don't understand the details it's kind of hard to be successful, right?
If you have ever started to make a recipe and get stuck on what a word means, you aren't alone. There are always going to be cooking terms that are unfamiliar to us, no matter how long we have been cooking.
When you don't know what something means, it's kind of hard to do what it says, so I have created a glossary of cooking terms for your reference.
If you don't see what you are looking for, please email me at louise@cookitpedia.com so I can add it to the list!
