Do you like to cook or just hate to?

I used to like to cook but now I just do it because I am hungry, I really don't care about cooking anymore

i love to cook & love for people to want me to. i consider it a compliment, i like to cook anything, doesn't make any difference to me. i'll try anything once.

I LOVE cooking and baking. Almost anything is fine with me...I have even come to the point that I can cook liver now. I never could for a very long time...it still is gross to me but I can cook it. I think my cooking is pretty good. My family likes it so they say.

Sometimes it can be fun. Like when my daughter wants to help prepare the meal. It is a learning experience for her. And quality time for us. At 5 I hope she will be able to retain the memory of helping mom or dad make noodles or measure out the water and flour. Other times it can just be a chore to get out of the way. Cooking is something I think my hubby likes to do more than I do.

Unfortunately I am not at all gifted in the area of cooking. I am grateful that my mom instilled in me a healthy appreciation for cooking so that I am trying, but so far I can only make simple dishes such as chicken and rice. :) I'm also glad my boyfriend doesn't expect much of me in this area!

Hi again louise! Your sure are pumping out the discussions tonight and have some really great topics! Well, I like to cook. I have to be in the mood and since the weather is now cooling off I guess I will be doing some more cooking. Since it's usually just me I don't cook as much as I used to anymore. My boyfriend works late during the week and eats at his job and sometimes brings home food for dinner so I don't usually cook during the week anymore. He works in a college kitchen so some nights he brings some interesting things for me to sample. I cook on the weekend. I like to make alot of chicken dishes. I make chicken cutlets, terriaki chicken, chicken with paprika. I also like to make beef stew when the weather gets cold. I make meat loaf and meat sauce and spaghetti. I also make shish kabob with beef and vegetables. I like to make some dishes up as I go. I'm an adventurous cook sometimes. I'm always trying something new. Oh, I love to make stuffed cabbage. I have a great Hungarian recipe that's a family recipe made with lots of paprika and sauerkraut. I also like to bake. I'm really glad that the weather is getting cooler again because I don't do much cooking in the summer.

I love to cook. Chicken is my favorite thing to cook and try different recipes. I also like cooking deer meat and trying to make people believe it isn't deer meat because some people around here don't like it. lol do you like to cook? and what?

I love to cook. Mostly because i know where my food has been, who's touched it and what not. I also love the smell it produces in the house, it's just wonderful. I like to try new Italian dishes, i am very big on Pasta. I make a lot of chicken, pork and beef and occasionally a stew or casserole. My boyfriend likes to eat so i find it's also cheaper to cook my own food at home rather than order take out.

I cook every day, I don't mind it at all. My roommate is a chef so he is cooking all day long so when he gets home the last thing he wants to do is cook so I do the cooking and he cleans up, it works out great. I cook a lot of Italian dishes and Spanish dishes too. I love making my stuffed artichokes, oh it is so good.

I love cooking and most everything that I do cook turns out really well. My husband always tells me that I should open up a restaurant. He says all I really need to do is to develop the recipes and then teach someone else how to cook it and just sit back and supervise everyone. That is a really big compliment to me. I love cooking and I think that dishes turn out better when you are enjoying what you are doing as you create a dish. I don't like seafood but then again everyone else in my household hates it too so that is not an issue for me. I really don't think I would like to cook seafood myself as it stinks so bad to me.

Cooking is one of avorite things. Since my work is basically an intellectual pursuit, cooking provides a totally different distraction. I enjoy it as a change of pace, to the extent that I used to teach gourmet cooking classes!

well, i cannot say whether i either love or hate cooking. i cook because i have to. i have to cook my own meal. i am vegetarian and my mother and my sister are not, so they cook their own food and so do i. so, i always cook very simply and fast. i will cook in as simple as possible, using the very basic spices, which are salt and sugar regarding the last question, fortunately no LOL. nobody in our home like whatever i cook i think i am the only person who can eat the food i cook.

I like cooking, and I can cook pretty good, I think I can..lol. I like making casseroles, that way all you have to do is mix it all up and put it in a pan and bake it, easy no messes. I wouldn't say that I hate cooking lasagna, but its just that it takes a long time to make, especially from scratch, but my family loves it.

I can cook, I'm quite good at it. Sometimes I love cooking and will go so far as to not even buy bread from the store because I'd rather make it. But sometimes I get pretty lazy and just want to throw something in the microwave. There's really nothing that I absolutely hate to cook, it really depends on my mood. Sometimes I just don't like going through the hassles. If hubby requests a meal that I don't particularly feel like making, he will make it himself, so not a huge deal.

I do hate cooking but since it is something that has to be done , then I do it as we still have to eat ... kind of like cleaning your house it is not fun to do but has to be done anyway :) I don't like cooking because half the time I don't like the way it turned out and even if I am told it is good then I am still not happy because it wasn't what I was trying to do or it doesn't look as good as I wanted it . I can cook a good ham dinner and this I enjoy making because everyone who eats it really enjoys my ham beause they like my glaze :)

I can cook and enjoy doing it sometimes. I am very lucky that my husband enjoys cooking and is a good cook. He is far more adventurous in his cooking than I am so he does most of the cooking. I just do basic cooking when he wants a rest. Mind you if there is any decorating to do I do it because I really enjoy it.

I love to cook. I have a passion for cooking. I dont think of it as chore but rather as a therapy when I am sad or as an inspiration as well. I love the feeling of combining raw products and making something yummy out of it, especially if the people you cooked it for appreceiates all your effort. As for the 3rd question, I practically like cooking everything edible. What I hate is the preparation and the clean up. Especially when i have to prepare a fish dish and the fish are bought fresh. I have to remove all the gills and stuff, I hate doing that...but when everything is ready, Im fine and ready to cook!

I love cooking but, I hate to spend more time in Kitchen. I cook both veg and non veg, usually twice in a week i will cook, and rest of the days i eat at hotels. I ma staying away from family so i have to cook myself. Initially i used cook everyday, but now a days in weekday i wont cook no enough time, only in weekends i am cooking.

i will cook like every once in a while. i guess i can cook pretty good. my husband always want seconds. i only know how to cook a few things really well, i am looking to cook some different things now.

SECRET INGREDIENT Here's a tip for the non-adventurous. Try adding a little something special that is uniquely yours. I learned from the superfriends cookbook to mix a smashed banana into my pancake batter for Batman's Mystery pancakes. I like to add in cinnamon or orange flavoring to my waffle mix to give it a little extra. I use Italian sausage links cut small as meatballs in my spaghetti sauce. Cook it slow and long and the spices will infuse the whole sauce wile making the meatballs milder. Be a little creative with basic recipes to make them your own. Experiment! Here's one that worked great: brown some ground country sausage and mix it into scrambled eggs with onions and peppers. Cook the eggs enough to be solid but still runny. Unrolls a package of croissants and use your egg mixture as filling then seal a second croissant over the one with the filling on top by rolling the edges together. Bake it as long as you would the un-stuffed croissant and you'll have country scramble hot pockets for breakfast that are delicious.
