Cooking - Men as cook

Here in my country India, Men generally keep themselves away from the kitchen and cooking. This part of household work ki chiefly dominated by women. Exactly like most of the Indian men, I too never ever thought of trying my hands on cooking. But recently, I thought of cooking something. And to my surprise, I was able to cook the dish really well! That was like achieving something really big for me! Then I made the conclusion that Indian men too can cook good food. What do you think, can or do men cook relly good??

Actually, depending on the dishes they cooked. But generally, more women has talents or capabilities in cooking while men has less talents BUT in terms of best, quick, tedious and huge preparations, men excel or they called CHEF. So Men are generally better than women in terms of cooking.

i think it depends on the guy. some guys can cook really well, but others cant at all. i know some guys here at my school who cook quite well. also, my brother and brother-in-law can make some nice things, mainly dessert. my dad can cook some nice things too but he doesnt usually cook. some guys are just too lazy tocook, but that doesnt necessarily mean they cant be good cooks.

Yes, men can cook very well. Most of the top best chefs in the world are men. All you have to do is have the desire and skip the he/she ritual.

Hello amitlsing..... My wife and I have been married 28 years and I do all the cooking because she really hates to cook. It has worked out well for us because I am a trained chef and I love to mix different types of cooking to create new dishes. There are a decent variety of grocers in the city that cater to the many immigrant groups that have settled here and I love learning about all the different foods and how they are used and prepared. My wife and I have found so many new items that like that we almost never eat American type foods anymore. Tom

My husband doesn't care for cooking so I do most of the cooking because I enjoy it. My dad is an excellent cook! He taught me a lot about cooking before I moved out on my own and I'm glad he did otherwise I would starve. LoL.

Yes men can cook good. It's not like it's rocket science or anything. If you have a recepe just follow it. If you don't then just make it up as you go along. Some men can cook better then women.

yep that very much true,Not only indian men or women all can cook nicely if they have interest on it. My hubby used to cook deliciously Non veg items. It would taste great. If one has the interest to cook and eat a good home made food, then he can learn easily. As you see , when there is no option left unless to cook for urself and then it works.

cook - I love cooking. Men love cooking too.
Your wife will be a lucky girl........lol. Yes we indians are growing with wrong impression that men should not work in the kitchen. In fact cooking is something that everybody should know. Not for others but for our own sleves too. May be you and your wife live alone, and she gets sick, then who is going to look after her, so all men should have atleast basic knowledge of cooking. It is we mothers who give evething ready to our sons and spoil them. In india men also think that it is below their dignity to work in kitchen. All these wrong attitudes should be removed. As you are indian, you must have seen Sanjeev kapoor's kana khazan, sanjeev is a good cook, and he is well known personality today. In all big hotels and restuarants, main cooks are men. Infact men can cook better than women, it is only that we have to change this attitude. I appreciate you for cooking, and keep it up, don't listen to your mother, we mothers have habit of spoiling our sons..........lol

To answer your question, men can cook really well. You can give a try to find out how many famous chief or cook are men in the world - definately more than women. I don't mean I want to praise men by this chance, I alway think some men are just being a bit of lazy or got spoiled by their mums, in fact they can do everything. So keep up the good work!

yes dear..Man too cook well.I think both man and woman are equally good at cooking. In India, home cooking is completely controlled by woman:). Surely my favorite dishes are anything that my mom cooks. But when you consider at professional level, almost all hotels in India have only men in kitchen. Me too cook really well. Last weekend me and my friend prepared fish biriyani. That was really good. I wish you had been here to taste that:)
