Who taught you how to cook?

Well, i would say my mother is the first person, who taught me how to do cooking. My mother started to teach me how to cook when i am only 10 years old. It's because my mother always fall ill then i had to help do cooking for the family. From my mother, i learned to cook Chinese recipes. I learned by my own to cook many other kinds of recipes through recipes book. So now, i am able to cook Thais, Indian and even Western food, too.

My grandma taught me some cooking basics and a few recipes like pumpkin pie and deviled eggs. But I didn't really learn how to cook until I was about 19. It was a combination of two things: first, my grandparents went to spend the winter in Florida and left me home by myself. I had to learn how to cook if I wanted to eat. Second, I started dating a guy who had a whole family of people who loved food and loved to cook. My boyfriend and I would cook dinner together pretty often, and I picked up some useful recipes and skills. Over the past couple of years, I've also been watching the Food Network and getting a lot of really useful ideas and tricks. I look up the recipes online, and I just follow the directions. I've gotten to a point where I can make my own recipes, and they turn out pretty darned good! I consider myself to be an excellent cook now, and I'll only get better.

That would be my mum!.I pretty much learned how to cook by watching her in the kitchen. When I was a kid I loved to watch my mum cook & bake especially on special occasions (thats when she would whip up a storm!) and I still do love watching her cook every now and then! She also has this huge stack of recipe books filled with her own recipes and dessert creations some dating back to her younger days.

When i was young, it was my mom who taught me cooking. after i got married,my husband can also teach me cooking some more complicated dishes. sometime I also learn cooking from other women friend or from books.

Hi my husband thought me how to cook before marraige I never used to go to kitchen for cooking.. happy myloting.

Since my grandma took care of my sister and I for the majority of the time when we were still young, we learn how to cook from her. She'll take me how to cook rice, eggs, noodles and just all sort of stuff. But now that she moved out, I have to learn from my mom. But sometimes I get lazy and I don't want to learn because her method of cooking doesn't require instructions and I need it to learn. But anyway, I think now that i'm grown up, I can learn by myself since I have internet. I just need to buy the right ingredients and then I can cook.

I learned from a very young age by experimenting and having an eagerness to do things for myself. I was never really taught, though I do know some family recipes, it just basically came to me. I love to cook, so now I can gladly say that I am basically the master of my kitchen hehe. It's a fun thing to know how to do, and when you cook with someone you love, like my boyfriend, it can make some great memories and help with bonding. To me, cooking is one of the most fun recreational things to do hehe.

My fifth grade teacher taught me. We had cooking class during our elementary days so i guess she's the first one to ever teach me how to cook. We first start with egg since it's the easiest to cook and there are more ways to cook it. Then we proceed with the main dish. Any kinds of dish really. Then the project was to prepare a full meal complete with soup, side dish, main dish, dessert and so on.

Ive learned to cooked just by reading and watching tv shows about cooking. But i am not a good cook still trying to learn. If i saw on magazine any recipe or watch something new recipe to tv shows i am eager to cook for it as long as the ingredients was with our kitchen. Well so far i am learning and my favorite to cook was pasta. I love pasta any kind of pasta is really delicious for me. So i am learning how to do better pasta and different sauces of pasta. I hope i can be expert with that hahah. Cooking is really a fun activity, i am enjoyed doing it at all times =)

Nobody, my room mate has given me some ideas. After marriage, I downloaded various recipies from internet and tried them. Most of them came out very well and a few were flop. My husband encouraged me. I like cooking. Every weekend I will try atleast a new dish.

Hi!My mom was a perfectionist.i was afraid to start cooking infront of her.but after marriage i had to cook myself.so i started with the help of my mom's cook book and now i can say i am a good cook.but i think it is all because of my mom.she wrote all the recipes for me in a book including small small things.i was able to cook nice meals with that book help.i thank my mom for that.she is a good cook and great mom.

My mum taught me. I'm English so most of the dishes/techniques that my mum has taught me over the years generally involve cooking typical British dishes from the Sunday Roast to Shepherds Pie. I tend to roast a lot of foods when I have the time as it's a simple technique yet very effective for the right cuts of meat as well as potatoes and certain root vegetables. As and when I'm able to expand my weekly food shopping budget I'd like to experiment more and more with game meats and foreign cuisine but I'm grateful for my mum's advice and tutoring. I didn't cook a great deal until it was time to go to university so my mum gave me a quick crash course and to this day it's something I really enjoy.
