Do people really not know how to press a button on the microwave until it's warm. You can probably take microwave cooking classes at your local community colleges continuing education department or outside many military bases.

Even experienced cooks get it wrong now and again. I've scorched salmon too on a number of occasions. The pan was a bit too hot so the skin browned too much and the inside was still raw. It's not a deal breaker. I just put it in the microwave defrost function for a couple of minutes and it's fine. I actually like it slightly undercooked on top because I prefer the texture to be flaking apart and succulent rather than very firm. I keep it skin side down the whole time then plate, deglace and pour the hot juices around the base to cook it just right for my taste

Pick a recipe you want to learn and practice it over and over until

You just need practice because theres so many elements you need to get familiar with. Every pan is different, every stove is different, every oven is different.. all spices(same ones) vary in their taste, produce, meat etc. all can be different each time you buy them. If you wanna bake, the flour can have different amount of moisture, your local humidity again can influence the recipe. No dish will taste the same every time, there will always be some variance that you need to adapt to. so cooking is a very dynamic thing that you just get a feel for after some time, you cannot learn it from books.
Jacques pepin has a basic technique series that you can watch on yt, i think ramsey has one too.. whatcha something like that to get the fundamentals down, after that its just picking a recipe and trying it out a couple of times.
It took me a while to find a balance in everything, but i found it with experimentation.. you need to be observant of everything, and try to vary your technique. What happens with more heath/less heath, more spices/less spices, more salt/less salt.. more time cooking/less time cooking.. how much pepper is enough, how much is not enough or too much..
Its good to understand what the point of certain procedures is so you understand what you are doing and trying to achieve and also what to expect.

Look into different books about mastering whatever it ie you are trying to cook. You don't "learn to cook", you learn to cook specific things. Research flavor profiles of different ingredients and experiment.

I mean a burnt outside and undercooked inside suggests the heat is too high. Cook it at a lower temp for longer.
