after i got married, i really don't know how to cook. my husband decided to buy me a cook book, and it was very helpful. i used it for almost a year. after using it, i already learned how to cook. now i can do it without using it. im really glad that this helped me. now im learning to cook new recipes, even by just looking at someone else doing it.

I learned cooking when my parents go to our native place leaving me and my brother due to some necessary work, at that time my mother taught me a little about cooking so that I can cook and two of us can manage to eat at home and in this way cooked and not only that I get some appreciation for cooking too

Actually i learnt it from my mom. maybe most indian girl know how to cook as its custom here that girl should know how to cook? Actually when groom's parent come to see the girl they mostly ask first does she knows how to cook and other household work?I know how to cook though i don't like cooking.Its like i can cook but i won't cook

Most of the recipes I get, I get from reading cookbooks or food blogs. And they're tried and true recipes from the stovetop or oven, and I just find a way to make them in the crock pot.
