Food cooked with second-guessing carries it.
The sauce gets watered down.
The salt comes too late.
The heat is turned off too soon.
But when you cook with confidence, even if you’re wrong, it shows up on the plate.
The garlic is bold.
The crust has courage.
The flavor commits.
Confidence doesn’t mean you know everything.
It means you choose, and you stand by it.
The truth is, most people don’t want perfect.
They want clear.
They want intentional.
They want a meal that feels like it knew what it was trying to be.
Confidence doesn’t just change how you cook.
It changes how people taste.
And yes, confidence tastes better.
