Cooking and baking can be a fun and relaxing break from college life. If you’re looking for tips to improve your cooking game, here are a few.
- Try new recipes
- Smaller baking batches of a variety of recipes
- Talk with your neighbors about different foods within their cultures
- Talk to Grandma and grab her recipe for that nostalgic banana bread ● Expand your spice cabinet from just salt and pepper
Try experimenting with new recipes—whether it’s something trendy or a dish from a different culture. Baking smaller batches of treats can add variety without wasting too much time (or space in your fridge).
Get to know your neighbors and ask them about their favorite foods. You’ll be surprised how much you can learn and share through different cuisines. Ask family members for classic recipes; they’re comforting and can remind you of home.
Also, consider stepping up your spice game. Adding more than salt and pepper can make even the simplest meals more exciting.
With these small changes, cooking can go from just another chore to a creative way to unwind and try something new. It’s a great excuse to share food with friends!
