Guys ... do you cook?

[ynot slow]

My 2c worth,was in our local cafe a few years ago,the owners' wife came out to serve,she said out loud Aimie can you go into the kitchen?Me the ever obliging male said "yes that's where all females belong",to which I recieved the steeliest of looks and no service from owners' wife.Apologised to Aimie asap she came back,she said yep grain of salt taken,but the boss is still pissed with you.

For what it's worth I've got a very heavy cast pan courtesy of my brother deciding to live in a bus and no room for it,heat it up chuck steak on and turn twice,maybe put in oven if cooking more than one serving.As the pan is expensive($200+)it cleans up well.Bbq is similar story full noise for steak then in oven to finish,usually comes out med-well if going in rare.

You know when dinner is ready... the smoke alarm goes off!

Better than the oven timer.

all i'm hearing from you buggers is "yeah ..... chuck a steak in the pan ... she'll be right" .. that's not cooking lads.

Any bugger can sear a steak ..

When was the last time you cooked something that was just a joy to eat?

Like eating so its often a case of needing to cook. Must admit that since being in a wheelchair, its a tad harder to cook an impressive meal, but there is technology out there to make up for the slack. Funny thing is though, most meals are quicker to throw together than going out for the lazy type feed. I also must be showing my age as alot of the takeaway stuff no longer agrees with me. P.S. If its not a pleasure to eat, I won't bother doing it. Generally speaking anyone should be able to cook as long as they have a recipe to follow.

Learnt to cook a roast as a 10yr old,gravy was hit and miss though,that took a little longer.Can remember one sunday morning getting up and looking in the fridge cooking,steak,eggs ,tomatoes and toast for mum,dad and my brother,only thing was ma and pa had gone out for a caberet night before and were slightly hungover,to their credit they managed to eat it all.They reminded me of that when I was having my 21 birthday and slightly hungover,unbeknown to me they conspired to have champagne brekky for me as was a public holiday,I woke up a bit earlier had some toast and coffee prior,how was I to know,still laugh about it 24 yrs later.

Any kid should be taught the basics to cook,our neighbours were type that mum was at home,tea at 5.00pm etc,her kids never had an idea how to cook,except for elder son through scouts,never knew what you used to boil an egg.The mum reasoned the kids would mess up her kitchen,as my mum said to her make them clean up the mess,then they will understand the concept of clean mess when cooking.

Many a great meal had in the backblocks cooked with ingrediants from several kitchens for tea over a fire,never knew you could cook a pudding over a fire,dutch ovens work well.
