I will start this with saying that I just learned how to cook this year (I'm already 25 and that sucks!!!) and I was really scared at first since I am scared of hot oil in my skin and burning myself accidentally.
Never thought that I would possibly love it now and loving the praises I'm receiving for my cooking. I'm one happy gal right now and so does my family.
I don't regret the burns I'm getting when cooking or hot oil marks in my hands since for me I'm proud to have them as I've got them accidentally and not just because..
I just hope that when I'm trying to cook recipes that are new to me I will not mess it up. Hope you guys also learned how to cook for those who haven't tried it yet. Its worth the burns...

I actually started learning to cook when I was still pretty young. One of my first adventures in the kitchen was trying to cook scrambled eggs with cheese. I ended up burning them and to this day I'm still not allowed to make scrambled eggs at my mother's house. However, as time has gone on I've gotten very adventurous with those things that I cook and it has come to be a hobby that I really enjoy. I love cooking and really love to try out new recipes. I think I've only burnt myself in the kitchen a couple of times in my life.

yup,cooking is very a very fulfilling activity. i've learned how to cook since i was 12 by watching my mother and trying to imitate her in the kitchen. it's also nice to be a little adventurous when cooking coz you might just find something brilliant. just like my own style spaghetti that i concocted a few years ago. i use a variety of ingredients that aren't supposed to be in spaghetti but it turned out very tasty that some of my friends let me cook for them.

U are still young compared to other girls of your age. I'm one year younger, and i'm still learning how to cook as well. That's the learning experience for cooking, to be burnt by the hot splattering oil. Some will be put off by it after they got burnt once, and develop a phobia. Since u are able to come over it, u should be a good cook in the future. Let's work hard together in our cooking!

I am 20 years old and I still don't know how to cook. But I am observing my sister in the kitchen. When she cooks chicken and fish, oil just keeps on popping. I don't want to get burn by the oil. My skin is so sensitive. That's why I only love to bake if I have the chance to study culinary. It's much safer.

Cooking is fun! It's always nice to whip something up whatever that is in the fridge. Im just an average cook but every time I prepare something, my little girl always tells me how good a cook I am! and she will always thank me for preparing such a good food:) It is always worth all the burnt on skin! hope everybody enjoys cooking as much as I do!:)
