Free practical cooking worksheet
One-handed cooking workflow planner
Identify where a cooking method assumes two simultaneous hand roles, then plan stabilisation, sequencing or a different method for that specific step.
These worksheets help you observe and plan a cooking task. They do not assess disability, capacity, rehabilitation need, supervision need, or whether a kitchen or recipe is safe for a particular person.
Step-by-step workflow
| Recipe step | What each hand is normally doing | Stabilise / sequence / change | Result |

Common two-role moments
- Holding a container while opening or scraping

- Holding a bowl while mixing
