Cooking involves a plethora of terms, techniques and ingredients.  Some are very familiar to the everyday chef while others can be baffling if they have not been seen before.   Here at Project Foodie we want to help eliminate that confusion and make cooking more enjoyable for both novices and veterans alike.  We're doing this through our interactive Glossary and accompanying series of articles called "Language of the Kitchen".  The article series will explore and define various cooking terms and techniques.  The glossary will provide easy access to all of these definitions plus definitions by chefs, cookbook authors, and you the foodies!  

The glossary is a fun interactive way to express your culinary knowledge while helping others learn more about The Language of the Kitchen.  If you've got some Kitchen Language you want to share go to the Glossary and enter your terms or update existing ones.  It's a great way to enhance the learning experience for foodies.

If you want to learn more about the Language of the Kitchen then go see what Foodie Karen has to say about one of the essential components of cooking - Heat - in our first edition of "The Language of the Kitchen".
