ixcuincle Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Most of the dummy books here are for cooking because I know appallingly little about cooking anything at all and mostly order out. Plus I am extremely picky and won't use my big oven except for special occasions like baking Red Baron pizza. You would think cooking would be easy because you just boil water and put pasta in but it's not. Things have to go with the pasta. I recently started putting vegetables in and I didn't do that before because I didn't have a peeler and just used frozen vegetables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy some chicken breasts. Marinate them(lather them up in spices/herbs). Let it sit for like 15 minutes. Put it in the frier and cook at 400 F for 5 minutes, flip them, then cook them again. Easy peasy. And it tastes delicious. It'll last you multiple meals and will only cost like $10 at the supermarket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixcuincle Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Also in my day it wasn't fashionable to be a male chef. The perception changed with Emeril being the first TV chef and following in his footsteps a boom of TV personalities including Gordon Ramsay, John Folse, Curtis Stone, DC's own Jose Andres, et al I will say if I had gotten hooked to Gordon earlier I probably wouldn't be this way, but too late. I'm lazy and don't want to cook, and especially clean up a sink full of dishes. Heck I just saw a sink full of dishes a few hours ago just stagnating in the sink I lost my temper and threw them all in the dishwasher. Tired of this **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In sixth grade we had to take essentially every elective class. Basically so ya understood what you'd be signing up for in seventh and eighth grade. That's the only time I took home economics. I remember making a pillow and peanut butter Ritz crackers dipped in chocolate. Ah truly valuable knowledge. 😋 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixcuincle Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 In home ec we sewed and cooked. If there was a cooking class and I knew what I knew now about celebrity chefs I probably would have put more effort. Chefs in my day weren't rockstars. Now it's hip to be a celebrity chef.

skinsmarydu Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I actually made english muffin pizzas a few days ago to get rid of some stuff. Sauce (I added some garlic & pepper), shredded mozz, ham & pineapple...easy and delicious. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TradeTheBeal! Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Damn, my guy PB is smoother than I thought. Enjoy the best 6 minute cooking vid of all time. @ixcuincle this is mandatory viewing for you. Not just as a cooking lesson, but incorporate this as a whole life philosophy. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually just assign a face that makes sense to me since we don't see who we're talking to here. Pretty sure I just associated you with the WWE wrestler.
