Lessons in Cooking

/\ I really don't mind. I won't share my kitchen or my tools and appliances.

Just recently my sister confessed to me that she has never liked to cook. I told her that I've always enjoyed it because I think of it as science --------- this is what happens if you add that, that is what happens if you add this. . . You need to apply just the right amount of heat or cold at just the right time. . . . . . I even wear lab coats when I cook. LOL

She liked that idea/train of thought very much, and now she's making terrific breads and stews, etc. Tweaking the chemicals. LOL

I'm now thinking that she became a vegetarian years ago so no-one would expect her to cook for them. LOL

Once upon a time job housewives cooked with similar garments on, called 'aprons'.

I fell out of the vegetarian boat because I wanted to be a Rowsdower, partially because I was curious.

Rowsdowing was a nigh total failure.

I'm not sure what was going on the movie, but the commentary by the figures in the audience was hilarious. :rotflmao:

As for the movie, it looked like it was two steps away from being a porn movie entitled "How I lost my virginity to a gruff older man." Great fantasy material for guys into that.
 
I'm not in agreement that most people hate cooking. In my observation, many people hate HAVING to cook when they work full time outside the home, and have full schedules, so arrive home tired. Add to that the obligation to feed children or spouses, and it becomes a dreaded task, hence the proliferation of eateries and fully prepared frozen foods, etc.

I love to cook, not every day, but may bake every day some weeks and take the proceeds in to my work to share. But, I bake for me. I love the creative aspects of it, and often change the recipe, much as Kahaih described, in an almost scientific quest to discover effects of combinations. There's also the aspect of making things from leftovers that uses the knowledge of cooking gained over many years.

This morning, while making sweet potato yeast rolls, I had let the dough crawl out from the rim of the large container in the fridge overnight. It wasn't that much, but about the size of a small to medium pizza. I still had enough dough not ruined to make four dozen large rolls. But I took the scabbed dough, made slightly shaped patties as fritters, and fried them in oil. After they cooled, I dipped them in a glaze I made of yuzu and confectioner's sugar. There was also some orange zest in the glaze. Really good save instead of throwing out the blob.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha! I thought that name sounded familiar. I saw that awful movie on Mystery Science Theater 3000 last year. That kid was some Robbie Benson wannabe, minus the Jewy parts.
 
My Dad taught me how to make spatzle when I was about 10 years old. Although he never used a spatzle maker over boiling water. He put his dough on wood cutting board with a long handle and would flick small strands of dough into the water with a full knife. Came out kinda like thinner cavatelli pasta. Mixed with lots of butter,pot cheese and caramelized onions and salt and pepper.

Yes! Yes! Oh God YES!!!

Been cooking and baking ever since. Love it. I'm now 61.

My nephew and I are trying to "perfect" General Tso's chicken at home.Just recently adding some chicken schmaltz to our batter. World of difference in terms of flavor.

I'm starving at the moment.

Although a teenager trying to master Julia Child's omelette might be a bit more picky... Particularly one who whips through a carton of eggs in an hour in his attempts.
 
I don't exactly hate cooking, but I've lost the enthusiasm I once had...

A lot is a terrible kutchen setup. And I hate washing dishes--which I never found very enjoyable, and is now plain tedious with the kitchen setup I have.

I dream of dishwasher the way a normal guy my age dreams of a sports car. Even a builder's grade dishwasher...

I live alone (well just me and all my extra personalities :lol: ), and there is that feeling of why bother?
 
Well, speaking on the joy of cooking - the results are their own rewards.

I don't believe it. A teenager wanting to learn to cook hasn't developed a palate yet, and it's unlikely he is discriminating.

It takes many more years to be this insufferable.
 
I feel so lucky. My guy is a self taught great cook. Yesterday he made lemon/blueberry scones. For dinner he made pretzel hot dogs with a honey mustard sauce. Then around 12:30 am he realized that he forgot to make a blueberry crumble, so he went to the kitchen and made it, from scratch. So around 2:00 am we were eating crumble.

I don't think I've ever had a very evolved palate, but I was considerably more picky when I was a teenager than now.

I cerainly could see myself at 19, when I first really cooked, going through a carton of eggs to get something Julia Child would say was "right." Although my mother would not have tolerated that. Plus the budget was as fragile as an egg shell, sometimes, so I'd have been uncomfortable with waste.
 
I like cooking especially stews with a beer/wine/stock base or spaghetti sauces and meatballs using my mother’s recipe. I know my way around a chicken too and know what to do with a slab of ribs. It’s cool to have the ability to make a scrumptious meal for someone and surprise them because you cooked it. Oddly enough I have trouble following most recipes so I’ve developed the ability to wing it.
