What Was Your First Cooking Experience?

Well, I had an Easy Bake Oven when I was four years old, but that was baking, and if you are talking strictly cooking, it was a casserole my mom used to make, and she taught me how to cook the meat, and add everything together when I was around eight. It took me a bit to get the sauce right, but I thought it tasted pretty good.

I was about 7 years old when I tried to cook a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch. I left the pan on the stove with the sandwich in it and went to ask my mother, who was in the backyard when to turn it over. She rushed into the house and the kitchen was full of smoke. My sandwich was burned to a crisp and my mom's pan was ruined. It was several years before I tried cooking again.

When I was a child, my Mom taught me how to make poached eggs on toast, spaghetti and fudge. So, those three things were the beginning of my cooking experience.

I don't remember. I started cooking meals when I was 13, so about 47 years ago.

In kindergarten there was some cooking activity. Making cake, frying some stuff. So it was very early in my age learnt it.

The first time is usually worse but as for me I was bringing food that is not fully cooked

Probably trying to make chapatis. I am not good at it even now

If I remember rightly, it was beautifully made scrambled eggs in an iron cast pan. After that, it was home made fried chicken in the same iron cast pan. I was a good cook and still am. My sisters not so much.

I do not remember. I remember helping my Mom in the kitchen when I was a little girl. I forgot my first cooking experience.

I learned to fry eggs and hotdogs on first grade. I had to stand on a small stool so I could see the top of the stove.

My first cooking experience was when I was around eight years old. My mom was trying to teach me to cook biscuits. It is a messy job. I didn't want to get flour and dough all over my hands , so when it came time to shake the excess flour off before baking, I came up with a plan to avoid touching the raw biscuits. I decided to place the pan off biscuits on the top porch step and use the blow dryer to blow off the excess flour. When I did, it blew the biscuits off the pan and onto the ground and the dogs ran up and ate them. So, I have learned over the years that sometimes, you just have to deal with the messy in order to be a good cook.

I used to help my mom cook dinner when I was a child. 8 yrs old and up.

I helped my mom to cook some Chinese dishes when I was 8-9.

I think I remembered when I make omelet when I was an elementary school kid. my mother guide me to do this and that. but my hand still can't lift the pan and flip the egg. it even got little burnt on the side of the omelet but keep eat it anyway. you know the failure on my cooking will keep progressing to cook the right way and the delicious way.

Actually cooking is not my hobby, and I started cooking simple things like scrambled eggs when no one was home.

I made home made macaroni and cheese at 8 and it came out perfect.

how can I remember it happend years ago but I think it was not that bad haha
