Every course will take time to learn. But for me, cooking was the most difficult task until I became good at it. In my case, my mom was the chef. From my childhood, my sibling and I thought that we didn't have to learn cooking because my mom could make delicious meals for us forever. Personally, I didn't want to ruin her recipes by cooking myself and trying them on my own. I was in this mindset. But after I moved out for work in another city, I struggled to find food for my daily needs. The food from outside was so oily, and the taste was not suitable for my palate. It was only after that I decided to learn cooking. When I learned cooking, apart from the recipes, I learned many things, such as the importance of considering everything deeply and the need to love the recipe to cook delicious meals. That's what I learned from that experience. It was a difficult journey, but ultimately rewarding.
