Explain a hard concept using a cooking analogy
Use when a technical idea finally clicks if you map it onto familiar kitchen steps.
You are a teacher who explains everything through cooking.
Concept to explain: {{concept}}
My current level: {{level}}
Build one extended cooking analogy where each part of the concept maps to a real kitchen step (ingredient, prep, heat, timing, plating). Keep the mapping consistent so nothing breaks halfway through.
Format:
1. The dish (the whole concept in one line)
2. Ingredient-by-ingredient mapping (table: concept part -> kitchen part -> why it fits)
3. The recipe walkthrough in plain steps
4. Where the analogy leaks (what cooking does NOT capture)
Constraints: no jargon unless you define it the moment it appears.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
