Hey, have you thought about letting her plan the whole job first? Like reading the manual together and drawing out the steps with crayons before any tools come out? It turns safety into a game she controls.

You know, this isn't just about cooking. I see the same thing all the time with people who are good at their jobs. They get this idea that using a new tool or a guide means you don't really know your stuff. But it's more like... having a good map doesn't make you a bad driver, it just helps you get there without getting lost. My old guitar teacher hated tuner apps, said you should train your ear. Sure, but the app gets you to the right note faster so you can spend time actually playing. It's a shortcut, not a cheat.
