When it comes to cooking, it is very important to keep in mind that everybody started somewhere. I don’t know of a single person who came to be with a wooden cooking spoon and all set. There is a whole lot of learning which needs to be done as a way to become prolific cook and there is obviously room for improvement. Not only can you need to begin with the basics when it comes to cooking but you nearly should begin again when understanding how to cook a brand new cuisine such as Chinese, Chinese, Thai, or Indian food.
Which usually means that at any particular time on your cooking learning cycles there’s quite probably somebody somewhere that’s better and/or worse at cooking more than you. Take advantage of this because the very best have bad days when it comes to cooking. There are several people who cook for different factors. Some cook in order to consume and survive although some cook simply because they actually like the process of cooking. Some cook during times of emotional upheaval and others cookout of absolute boredom. Whatever your reason for cooking or understanding how to cook you need to begin with the basics.
The fantastic news is that when you’ve heard the fundamentals of cooking it is unlikely that you will ever have to displace them. This usually means that you could always buildup and expand your own cooking abilities. Since you learn new recipes and improve your culinary skills and talents you will find that preparing your meals from scratch is far more rewarding than preparing pre packaged meals which can be purchased from the shelves of your local supermarkets.
Additionally you will find as your experience and confidence develops that you will find your self more and more usually improvising as you go and adjusting recipes to meet your own personal preferences. If you prefer more or less of ingredients or would like to generate a recipe a little less or more hot in flavor that can be made simple alterations on the way in order to achieve this objective. In other words you will begin punctually to create recipes of your very own. And that is something you may not of necessity learn when it has to do with basic cooking skills to newbies however you would never learn if you did not master those simple cooking skills.

Steps to make Mike's Extra Spicy Red Beans And Rice:
- De-thaw your pre-cooked Andouille Sausage in microwave and cut pieces at an angle 1" long. Place in oversized pot.
- Large chop all of your vegetables and put in your pot.
- Open and drain your beans and place in pot. Reserve 1 can of Pinto Beans just in case you're one to enjoy a creamy texture in your Red Beans & Rice or a thickener. Simply drain beans and smash with a potato masher and place in your oversized pot with your whole beans.
- Add enough Beef Broth to accommodate your pot mixture. Not too much though. This dish should be viscous or a bit thicker upon serving [unless you're serving dipping bread] so you may not need both boxes.
- Add all of your seasonings and a 1/2 of your extra large bottle of Tabasco. Stir and heat.
- Bring your dish to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Stir intermittently.
- Authors Note: While Crushed Tomatoes aren't indicative to this dish, we find they make an excellent accompaniment!
- Simmer until you think your veggies are well cooked. 2+ hours usually. Continue adding your Beef Broth throughout simmering if this dish becomes too thick.
- In a separate pot, bring your Chicken Broth to a boil. Add Dried Chives and White Rice and cook as per the rice bag's directions. Chicken Broth lends a great flavor to bland rice. You can also use Uncle Bens Boil In Bag Rice. Just omit the Dried Chives and make sure to use Chicken Broth instead of water. You also have the option to place the rice directly in your oversized pot with all the other ingredients or on the side. I'll put the rice directly in my oversized pot if the dish is too thin. That step usually thickens this dish right up.
- Pull out the Bay Leaves. Also, since the flavors of spices can dissipate with long simmer times, I taste test and add usually add 1/4 + more of my Tabasco bottle, Cajun Seasoning, Italian Seasoning, Garlic and Onion Powder. In general, I'll use 10 oz + of a large 12 oz bottle of Tabasco in this dish.
- Simmer another 15 minutes and serve with dipping bread or corn bread and side bottles of Tabasco.
