Cooking takes practice. And before you can become the next Gordon Ramsay, you're going to make a lot of mistakes.

FOX

And that's OK!

So what were some of the common cooking mistakes you made when you were first starting out in the kitchen?

FOX

Or even: the mistakes you *still* sometimes make, because nobody's perfect TBH.

Maybe you struggled with cooking meat perfect perfectly...

FOX

Or you'd never remember to let it rest before slicing into it afterwards.

Or you always burnt garlic to a crisp because you added it to the pan a bit too early.

20th Century Fox

Maybe your cakes always fell apart like a hilarious Pinterest fail because you didn't let them cool before slicing them.

NBC

Or perhaps your pasta clumped together because you let it sit in the colander for too long after draining it.

Comedy Central

Tell us about the cooking mistakes you made — or still make! If it's an old mistake, tell us how you've corrected it.
