Do me a favor Dien,
PLEASE for god's sake, don't show people how to chop up vegetables.
If I did a cooking show, first thing I would say is GO AWAY if you don't know how to cut up a carrot, or celery or a potato or onion.
GO AWAY. When you take all the chopping on YouTube, a 5 minute recipe can be covered in about 2 mins.
My belief, opinion and bias is...if you don't know how to cut a carrot, you've got no business trying to do anything in the kitchen, get out now.
I did start a cookbook eons ago, ALEXANDER'S GREAT SOUPS, STEWS AND SAUCES...and if I were to channel that on youtube, there would be NO chopping of anything...come back after you have cut your finger off.

Thanks Millard!
My wife and I had the idea a few years ago to do a "cooking" channel on YouTube...
She's a great chef! But...
There seem to be more "disasters" than average around her in the kitchen (in terms of fire alarms going off, dishes going up in smoke, etc.)...
The idea was to do a "cooking" show, where she would show how to cook a dish...
But, every "episode," a disaster would happen!
I think it would be funny if, even after the disaster, the dish turns out perfect!
Anyway... It was a fun idea... But it would also be a lot of work... :)
It would be like making your own TV series... :)
Best wishes,
Dien
