Cooking — at least, the way we're supposed to do it according to magazines, chefs and TV shows — can seem like a nigh-impossible task, especially if you're neurodivergent, says @Eater's Sarra Sedghi. She got tips from foodies who've learned to navigate this. “I think an enormous message in food media is: You’re doing something incorrectly. A professional chef does it this way, and therefore whatever your workaround is must be inherently inferior,” says Margaret Eby, a food writer who has ADHD. But, she adds, “I don’t work in a Michelin-starred kitchen. My home kitchen is not the French Laundry.”
