RE: Are you any good at cooking? - Ecks - 05-24-2017
I was raised that not only should the man bring home the bacon he should cook it too, later on I learned that my upbringing was just bullshit cause my dad was lazy and mom was depressed but either way all those years experimenting in the kitchen to feed a family of seven paid off. I can cook pretty much anything, even shit I don't like and people go apeshit to get some. I made sweet and tangy apple smoked pork ribs two days ago, made fried chicken the day after, made smothered chicken burritos last night.

I dont really know much about cooking other than mac and cheese, and other very similar things. I would love to know how to cook a little better meals, but I dont have the time for it rn.

Got New York strip steaks marinating in my homemade teriyaki ginger marinade, going to grill them tonight haven't decided any side dishes yet but it's still early.

Usually I make a full meal for myself but if I'm cooking for others I might go out of my way a little more than normal. Usually I end up cooking pastas or stuffed chicken breasts, burgers, etc but if I have friends over I'll make a nice steak dinner with twice baked potatoes, fried green beans, and garlic bread. I like to cook but it's a lot of work to be honest.

I don't cook in my university days because there are so many delicious and cheap foods around. But I enjoy preparing a meal at home for my family. Uh, just quite simple dishes.

Not so good on the cooking front. There are some pretty good ready meals available now. I'm quite handy with a microwave

I can bake homemade soft pretzels, and pretzel dogs. I can also cook hash browns, eggs, toast, and bacon. I can cook pasta, and anything with instructions on the box. I can also cook meat, and potatoes. In other words, I can feed myself independently.

I must say, there are some very good meals that only require heating via the microwave.
In my locality, a lot of healthy meals with a 5 star rating approved by the national heart foundation, are microwavable. And the taste Is quite nice. As to whether the microwave Itself causes health risks Is questionable.

Regarding the health risks of microwaving, I understand that the gold standard is to reheat your meals in pyrex or similar. This is not all that practical when many microwave meals come in plastic type containers.
