    Best way to become a better cook

    Thanks guys, all great ideas. and that idea of learning from others is really good - everyone has their specialities for sure. I think I have to be less afraid of messing up... worst case it doesn't taste good!

    Dough - buy it or make it?

    I have to pick up some bacon soon... My most recent thing was I tossed all my teflon and bought a cast iron skillet, cast iron griddle, and cast iron dutch oven. Love them! This sounds like another great use for them

    Do you use a bread machine? I heard of baking bread in a cast iron pan and that sounded delicious

    Dough - buy it or make it?

    I'm curious what everyone does as far as dough, does everyone buy it at the store or make it from flour yeast, etc? I'm talking dough for pizza, bread, whatever :) Thanks, Matt

    Best way to become a better cook

    I have a strong interest in cooking, and the things I know how to cook I am decent at. I am a big fan of easy to prepare meals that take around a half hour. My problem is that I find one thing that is easy and keep doing that, and don't know what to expand to or get to lazy. When I was younger...

    Eating raw/uncooked grains

    I think I phrased that wrong, I meant to ask what is the logic behind eating raw foods. Makes sense to me for veggies but for grains I do not understand. Thanks!

    Health Snack for Gym Nuts - "Sludge Brownies"

    try it, I think you'd be surprised. You can whip it up in probably 5 minutes total. Most of the time is spent mixing it in because its so sticky. tastes better than a hard boiled egg :)
