Ever since I started cooking my own food, I've found it really difficult to ever eat fast food or in regular restaurant-chain eateries because, well, it's just crap compared to what I can make at home with fresh ingredients. | ||

And yes girls enjoy it a lot. Especially in China where a lot of girls are more interested about food than anything else. | ||

When you shop buy foods that can be made into a number of dishes: chicken, ground beef, frozen vegetables. Then do all your cooking for a week on one day, like sunday afternoon. Make the ground beef, refrigerate, etc. Then when you are hungry\ready for dinner heat up the main thing and add it to a salad or microwave some frozen veggies --instant dinner. | ||

One thing is being able to cook, another thing is cooking delicious food. In order to learn just the basic mechanics of cooking you would have to do it for many months. It helps if you've worked in the industry, everyday practice and good advice are priceless. Even a monkey can follow a recipe and prepare an edible dish, but will it taste the way it should? Frying a piece of chicken seems like an easy task, but you can fry it in many different ways, each of them will make it taste different. Average guy wouldn't know the difference, because it would come out exactly the same. So yes, knowing how to cook is a big deal if you are doing it right. | ||

My girlfriend simply refuse to cook so now I'm the house bitch D: She would do the washing and cleaning though. I think men should take over cooking but women should have enough skill so they would rise to the occasion when called. I personally don't have problem with cooking, I like to experiment and buy weird and wonderful food from different culture, this would never happen if I let someone else cook. | ||

The thing I love the most about cooking is when you come across something that *might* seem decent in what you're cooking, go ahead and try it. Back to the build order metaphor, if you feel that building a few DTs would make your build more potent, go ahead and try it. If it doesn't work, you don't do it again, or at least try it differently. Otherwise, good job. Cooking is fun! | ||

I feel like women nowadays don't know how (or don't like to) cook their every day food. I know many that can cook or bake something decent, but they won't bother to cook everyday. If there was a pot luck they'd bring homemade green tea muffins but they'd never make themselves a hamburger during the week. | ||
