Ask HN: How Do You Learn How to Cook Well(Michelin Star Level)?
I know how to cook, but I have a hard time finding resources about cooking well. It's pretty easy to find resources about programming design, philosophy, theory, etc. However, I can't say the same for cooking.
I find it hard to find books about the theory of cooking. Things that include cooking temperature, texture, color, taste, chemistry, etc.
What resource are you all using to learn how to cook well?
