How to Flip Food in a Pan Like a Chef

“Up and down is very lame, back and forth shows your game…”

Using cheeseballs, Chef John of Food Wishes demonstrates how to flip food in a pan like a chef in this entertaining video tutorial.

…I hope this “cheesy” trick helps you master this very basic and desirable kitchen skill.

By the way, this is about much more than just looking cool. Depending on the recipe, flipping the food around without having to use a spoon or spatula can be a big advantage. It’s faster, more effective, and yes, it looks super cool too. I hope you give this a try soon. Enjoy!
