    I really enjoy cooking. I don't know what I enjoy about it, it's just nice to make something that tastes nice. I inherited it from my father, he likes to cook as well. I don't know if I'm good, but it doesn't matter. Mostly I cook something with pasta because I love pasta. My father makes this amazing pasta casserole, but I don't manage to copy it, he is the only one who can do it.

    I've made sushi a few times...
    But usually I just cook box macaroni or, if I'm feeling especially lazy, I boil some water in an electric kettle and make instant ramen...

    I love to cook.

    I see it as a way to relax, so if I have a couple of hours to get everything ready, wine and music in the background, I'm more than happy. I'm terrible at following recipes but I think with cooking, as long as you have an end goal and some idea of what flavours go together, it's hard to go wrong. I've been told I'm a pretty good cook and an average to poor baker and I'd definitely agree. Baking is a lot more precise and in a sense scientific than cooking I think, and those are definitely my weak points. They're just different skills.

    I like to cook, but I'm not very good at it. Especially if I'm trying to do multiple dishes at once. That doesn't usually end well.

    I also love to bake.

    Cooking and food are probably my greatest passions, actually. I cook professionally, as well as for fun.

    Absolutely love cooking. Making croissants right now.. first time & hopefully it works out haha. I'm vegetarian so like to eat healthy plant based foods that are good for the soul with the occasional pizza & pasta as I am Italian & gotta have the carbs

    I enjoy cooking whenever I can but I don't know how to make much and also now that I live in a 10-story dorm with only one small kitchen for the entire dorm to share, I kinda don't ever get a chance to use it. I wouldn't mind trying to make new things though this upcoming summer when I'll be home.

    I love it. But only if I can cook for myself. If I habe to cook for my whole family I feel really pressured and nothing comes out right. I'm doing desserts for them :wink:

    I love baking, I generally make biscuits or cakes. I think I just enjoy creating something from scratch. I'm not even the greatest cook, but I find the whole process to be somewhat therapeutic.

    Cooking is great! I find it especially fun and satisfying to cook for a large group of friends/family.:slight_smile:

    I love grilling meat to perfection, also a professional bacon weaver.
