Describe you cooking skills. Could you prepare a simple meal? Cook for your family? Or would you even run into trouble baking scrambled eggs?

[Hans222]

The question says it all!
Let me start with being honest: I cook like a very poor amateur. Warming up spaghetti and baking and egg is where it ends.

Perhaps I can learn something here, looking forward to your interesting feedback!

I'm pretty good. I don't have this natural talent my brother does, but I enjoy cooking. Also I don't enjoy cooking for its own sake, as much as I enjoy the fact that someone else is going to eat what I prepare for them. There is this love I feel when I prepare food for people in my home.

Once you get past the basic meals that require you to know something you can't discover on your own, you can start mixing things up and creating your own meals. I've even stolen a couple of restaurant recipes just by tasting what they served. =D

I'm not sure what advice you wish to find here. The best one I have is to watch tutorials look for recipes and practice if you want to know how to cook well. =)

[Hans222]

Haha, I didn't hear the word "steal"... thanks for your answer :-)

[Hans222]

Thanks for sharing all this info, you deserve the MH!

[inamorata]

Thanks.

[SaVes]

I think I'm a pretty skilled cook for an amateur actually. I can pretty much prepare all kinds of meals, with a few exceptions maybe.

[Hans222]

You beat me 5-0!
I'll sit, watch and learn haha :-)

[madhatters4]

I can cook simple meals, cook for a family and larger. I think th emost I every cooked for was about 15-20 people (which is tedious but rewarding).

anyone can learn to be a decent cook. it really only requires logic, attention to detail, and the ultimate thing is a desire to do it

[Hans222]

I'm pretty sure I could make bacon with eggs or spaghetti for that group... wouldn't leave them hungry at least haha :-)
Thanks for your answer.

I'm went from having zero experience in the industry to becoming a lead cook in less than a year. Next step is Sous Chef.

Yeah, cooking is easy for me. If you have any questions, ask me.

[Hans222]

Congratulations, you deserve respect!

[DragonWolf]

I always manage to burn everything...
Well, somehow I can cook a good apple pie though :)

[Hans222]

Yeah, the smoke plume reached Belgium!
I regognize myself partially... I don't know anything about apple pies :-)

[DragonWolf]

Haha, I Always wondered where it ended up ;)
My parents usually cook, they kinda became afraid of asking me to cook haha.

[Izzy2102]

I LOVE cooking. I like to experiment so some meals are better and some worse, but in generally they're pretty good. I can pretty much do anything

[thetundrawolf]

I can make a bowl of cereal. It will probably be okay.

[Hans222]

We understand each other! In the morning you take care of the cereals. At noon we'll warm up some spaghetti and in the evening I'll make bacon with eggs.
The second day we'll launch a question on GAG which girl would like to cook :-)

[thetundrawolf]

Right now I am eating a refried beans out of a can. It is cold. I am hoping to go to walmart and grab a bag of jelly bellies to make this a well- rounded meal.

[Hans222]

Haha, I honestly wouldn't do better. I would buy sandwiches or prepared meals and warm them up in the microwave. What an invention :-)

[thetundrawolf]

XD I know, right? So much better than setting things out in the sun. I might grab a box of cheese its to make this match all of the food groups. Beans, jelly beans, and cheese. Perfect.
