Can you Cook?

[Guest]

I can't cook  AT ALL

Microwavables and Frozen Pizza, ahoy!

Don't feel bad. My brother in law is 27, owns his own house and has a great paying job and still relies on fast food and microwave food. I myself can cook a little bit, but if my wife didn't give me tips and advice every time I pick up a pan I would be in the same boat as you and him. It helps a lot when you have someone always around who can cook.

yes i can cook though i'm not perfect at it yet i'm starting to get better at it

[Steve Piranha 29,504]

Yes, I'm a decent cook. I can cook most common meat based meals plus seasoning

[Lisa 5,553]

no

If I was marooned on an island, stuck with eating fish, I'd have to eat it raw or extra-extra crispy.

[ChikaChan 7,330]

I could only do Mac & Cheese ._.

A lot of my male friends claim cooking is for women. Well, that is until they try my food.

Pretty Ironic seeing as some of the world's top chefs are male.

 

Cooking is one of my hobbies and a passion, I love sharing food with others. Some people like drawing, sports etc. A lousy skill to have sometimes, but it can make the day much more enjoyable for you and others sharing great stuff! I would not seem like the guy to cook. But anyway.
Though, nothing beats an ordinary take-out pizza shared with friends!

I'm gonna answer truthfully, I can't cook big meals, I can boil pasta, I can microwave meals, and make instant Raman, that's it.

[Incognito Bandito 73]

I can make pizzas and pancakes

[Derpii 34]

Kinda Good, can make Tacos, Pasta, ect..

[Hashi 324]

Once upon a time I set soup on fire.

That was my proudest achievement

 

Now I can make pretty mean pastas 

[VinylWubs 1,282]

I can cook! But.. only like Spaghetti, Chicken rice and Cookies!!

[Januaree 38]

I can, but I wouldn't call myself 'Amazing' so it doesn't seem like I'm bragging. My parents are normally at work and due to my older sister can't cook I'm normally the one who's making all the meals.

[GuyNamedEarl 1,332]

I'm pretty good for being a guy

I've found, as young as I am, I can really cook! It's all about patience, hard work, and MEASURING! My mother is to be credited for my knowledge of cooking.

[EpicEnergy 23,259]

Nope. I can heat things up in a microwave, that's about it though.

[Splashee 28,606]

Yes, delicious foods of any kind!

[Phosphor 11,546]

I can cook a few things. It's good enough that I won't starve.  

My neighbor usually cooks stuff for me  

[Lucky Bolt 35,271]

I can't cook to save my life ahaha. 

[TBD 17,276]

I always help my mom with cooking so yes. I’m not great enough to become a pro chef but  good enough that the food is edible and good. But I enjoy baking and bbq more. 

[DixonTheAdversary 1,638]

I could if given step by step instructions.

I used to like to bake, when I had actual counter space.  Now that I'm living with my mother again, I can't seem to find my favourite non-stick pan D:...  I like to make baked mac-n-cheese when I can or make these really good buns with shredded, grilled BBQ chicken in it(it's basically like the meat buns you'd find at a Chinese bakery).  The only thing I miss about my old place of residence was the fact that there were two grocery stores in walking distance so I could get some pretty good stuff immediately, now though, the best grocery stores are an hour drive away...

Ah poor baby me, you've gone through a lot culinary-wise, haven't you?

Anyways, I'm much more confident in my cooking, the only thing I don't really have access to is a barbeque.  I wouldn't call myself an expert but I tend not to shy away from trying something new, so long as I can afford it.  I still have very little counter space where I live currently but I use part of my dinner table to knead dough since I never really have any guests over so I don't have to worry about it too much.  Making my own bread has been a life-saver for me since sometimes the only things I can afford to eat are a bowl of soup and some bread.  Besides, a bag of flour that'll last me for a few weeks is less than a bag of bread that'll only last for a few days.  I might not be able to make any fancy breads but a regular loaf of bread or two gets the job done.

Oh and...  I still have my favourite non-stick pan

Other than putting stuff in the microwave or the oven no.

I'd say I'm better than the average person at cooking. I definitely didn't get that from my dad. His cooking is worse than the food at my old high school  Michelle Obama ruined school lunches and that's a fact. I'm still upset about that even though I graduated a year and a half ago.

Anyway, that's off-topic. When I was younger I really loved watching shows like Chopped, and even now I still watch Gordon Ramsay's videos every now and then. Once I'm living on my own I definitely won't be eating poorly.

Yeah, I'm actually pretty good. I'm not Marco Pierre White incarnate but I can make a lot of things pretty well.

I can cook a little but I'm no Wolfgang Puck. I like to play around and try to make interesting dishes but usually end up calling for pizza delivery.
