If so, which dish are you aboslutely fantastic at creating?
I'm a pretty good Asian cook, thanks to my mom. I can cook up at least thirty noodle dishes, and I'm not talking about minute noodles. Dishes with lots of vegetables, meat or even fish. Also, I'm a master at steaming stuff, and I use my steamer each and every single day.
I love cooking, and am often told I'm a good cook. Dishes I love doing would be curries, or a beef stew.
I would say yes. My wife says yes. My mom has piqued her interest when I mention about what I cook, ann my father has shown interest. I'd say I'm pretty damn good.
And I love it too.
I make yummies for the tummy!
I'm not a great cook though. I just happen to cook a lot.
omg asian food. ASSSSIANNnnnnss~
I can cook stuff! Ignoring things that can be boiled, fried, or bbq grilled [which would make the list too long and too noob], I can make
lobster [wait that's boiled]
shrimp [and this too wtf pg shut up]
creme brulee
salads

Smoothies
I'm good at creating dishes, okay at executing them.
I'm a good cook. I guess my famous dish is my Wiener Schnitzel.
I consider myself a good cook. I make an incredible pot roast, and amazing lemon parmesan pasta. But I looove to bake.
I consider myself good, as well as a good learner when it comes to cooking, but I'm better at grilling than at cooking.
Well I'm not that creative, I hate eating and only do it by necessity..it's just a bonus if it tastes nice at the same time. I probably could cook pretty well if I tried; of all the things I've done in my life I've never actually burnt anything. I never do anything which requires effort though really, pasta..beans on toast..that type of thing which you can't dramatically go wrong with unless you have a complete lack of sense of time.
:D I am confused.
I LOVE to cook. I always get honest criticism from my family members if something isn't right, which I do my best to improve the next time around. I have trouble creating my own dishes though, I'm not too creative just yet. I'm good at following recipes though! :jess:
I can't cook. I screw up Mac n' Cheese sometimes.
Though I work at a deli, and can put food in the right order to make a delicious sub.
Subway is not a deli, Clo. >:|
Of course; I’m a terminator.
Welp, we're getting married.Quote:

Im gonna go with no on this, i managed to set fire to my kitchen 2 days ago cooking Chicken Tikka, ovens smurfed as are the kitchen worktops and walls are scorched :( I really wish i were kidding!
Hah, I've set fire to my kitchen too. No biggie. :p
I use this site as inspiration when I don't know what to cook for dinner. It's like food porn!
If that's your salad, I can't wait to see what your Lobster looks like.Quote:

I like to decorate my dishes with carvings and stuffs! There was once I carved a swan out of a tomato! Not a very nice one but I think it's decent! :bigsmile:
This is what I cooked for dinner:

Green beans, herbed new potatoes, and lemon honey chicken. We're trying to eat healthier, so there was only a tablespoon of butter in this whole meal. Couldn't cut out that butter entirely. Veggies are organic and the chicken is free range/hormone free.
I like my food marinated in suffering.
I don't work at Subway, so NAH.Quote:

I'm really amazing with Mexican foods. :D
New potatoes just refer to the age of a potato. New ones are smaller and the skin is thinner so that you don't have to peel the skins off. New potatoes, red potatoes, bliss potatoes, they're all pretty much the same in my mind.

No. Don't work there either.Quote:

Don't you ever pay attention to my mobile uploads on facebook? I have several pictures of my amazing fajita's.Quote:

I realize they don't look that great, but they taste amazing, and most Mexican food looks like poop anyway.
Is that some sort of goat cheese dessert or something?Quote:
PUT YOUR MOUSE OVER THE PIC YOU JERKFACE JERK
That looks delicious! And you're so right, Mexican food SHOULD be messy. Deliciously messy.
It's like a regular cheese dip. Like the kind you can buy at the store. Only mine has sausage meat in it, along with the cheese and peppers.Quote:

No yours, PGs. It looks like the tubes of goat cheese that they offer at my local supermarket, but I'm not that familiar with it so it was a guess.
Yours does look good though, Lulu. Give me a recipe now please.
No. And pictures don't tell me if they're good. You live in KY, I doubt the quality of Mexican food there very much.Quote:

So far I have yet to hear anything but positive feedback about my cooking (except for people eating things that I make for myself, because I make my own food absurdly spicy).
However, the range of things I cook is narrow enough and the people I cook for few enough that I'm not sure whether I can claim to be a good cook~
I make good food that's simple. Made some beef stroganoff and some burgers for friends who were down for a wedding recently, and they were surprised I cooked as well as I did, so there's that.
Absolutely i am a very good cook. b,coz cooking is my hobby..
Or as James May, Richard Hammond and Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear put it, Mexican food looks like refried sick.Quote:

I only really eat one proper meal a day so having something good is nice. I guess my main cooking skills lie in cooking mediteranian food because I like cooking pastas, fish, veg ect. However I also love cooking curries and the like too.
I don't know what Mexican food you lot are familiar with.
I guess I cook decent enough since it's how I pay my bills, but it usually involves salads (I work garde manger station at work), though I do make soups too.
As for cooking outside of work, my friends and family always enjoy my food. Baking is much more my forte though. I understand sweet flavours a lot better than savoury. That said, I am a lot harder on myself when I bake. It will usually turn out good. Example, I made banana chocolate marble bread the other day. It turned out delicious and moist but could have used a bit of salt, surprisingly the recipe did not call for salt (usually the recipes from this book are spot on).
I can only cook eggs :(, but even those don't turn out right. I cooked an ET looking egg once. I'll see if I can find it xD
I've improved somewhat over the last year and noticed I was losing a lot of weight by preparing more of my own food, so I hope to continue.
So yeah, just.
I can't make scrambled eggs. For some reason I either overcook them or undercook them. Never right on the money. Probably at the wrong temperature. Otherwise I've never met a dish that's beaten me, but I don't tend to come up with my own stuff. I just don't have a lot of time. Even so I make this blueberry stuff you'd :bou::bou::bou::bou: your pants over.
Not because it would give you worms.
Wow, maybe :bou::bou::bou::bou: your pants over was the wrong turn of phrase.
I can throw a bunch of strange ingredients together but that does not make me a good cook.
I'm not a good cook. I could be if I decided to cook. But I don't cook because I am lazy. However I just whipped up some bacon and eggs for tea before and they were smurfin delicious if I do say so myself.
I know I'm a good cook.. because I love to eat, have tried different country's food.. fave recipe's are asian cuisine.. they really use freshest ingredients... and mostly they use raw food, that' makes it very healthy
I suuuuck at cooking. Which worries me, because I'm having a child.
She's gonna be like, "cook me something, madre" and I'm gonna be like.... "Damn..." /:
TV DINNERS ARE GOOD AND EASY THOUGH. =D
... No, but it really is sad. ;~;
You can always learn! :D
My sister never really knew how to cook until she moved out and now she's a wonderful cook! :D
Yes I am!
Part of me thinks "smurf thats gotta be rank" part of me kinda wants to try some Regular Ordinary Swedish Meal Time recipies......How smurfed up does that make me?Quote:

It doesn't come from the same pipes as the sink where you live? :p
... yes, but after doing that it runs down the sides of the toilet bowl, which have been stained with less than appetizing substances for years. xD
You filthy human being! :p
PGies' ezmode scrambled eggs:Quote:

scramble eggs. When you are done the oil on the sauce pan will be read
pour mixture into sauce pan. Add salt+pepper/etc
take something that doesn't scratch. I use a wooden chopstick but you can use a plastic spatula
mix the eggs using said spatula until all of the eggs have cooked
done
I'm not real great with baking, but grillin is a different story. I make a mean steak :D
