Hi, do you like cooking or baking more? I would prefer cooking because a good dishes is hardly get and quite unique to yourself, but a good cake could be easily get in bakery shop.

I love cooking more however I want to enhance my skills and learn baking. I want breads and cakes and I always dream of decorating/baking my own cakes. I want also to learn how to do cookies and short bread. I am saving to buy for an oven and a hand mixer to support my will to learn to bake. I am planning also to enroll in a baking class soon.

If I had to choose between cooking or baking, I would likely choose baking.
There are a lot of dishes that I rather bake in the over than cook stove top.
Not all foods baked have to be a bakery item such as cakes, pies, cookies or other sweets.
I prefer to bake my food because it is easy and is less clean up. Sometimes however, I like to use the stove to cook in ways that I can not achieve by using the over.
This is not an easy decision but if I had to choose it would be baking hands down. I can not imagine living without a baked potato.

hi myhllim, my dear friend, i love cooking a lot and i think it is a very good time pass for me. i like baking too and certain things taste very good after baked, like i once read a recipe for Zuchini, and i baked it, it tasted really good. but i prefer cooking and i think it is very much true that good dishes are rarely found in shops but very tasty cake can be bought from a good bakery. i love cakes but i feel it is a very boring job to bake it at home , spo i prefer to order it from a nice bakery when i feel like eating.

I like doing both cooking and baking. But I do cook a whole lot more often than I bake. I guess that because most dishes I prepare calls for stove-top cooking rather than oven baking. But I dont limit myself to cooking. A tummy chicken pot pie is baked, and so is a family favorite, oatmeal crusted chicken. As for desserts, I bake cookies on holidays. I bake cake a couple of times a year. What I bake most of the time are muffins of different kinds and fruit pies. If I am to rate myself, I will say that I can cook better than I bake.
Happy Mylotting!

Hi there!
Well, I prefer cooking just because the equipments I need for cooking is readily available unlike the ones that I need for baking. I am not good in both but if I have to choose one, it will be cooking.
