Was your mommy a good cook?
>>
>"I don't eat any of that foreign muck"
>"adding herbs and spices just ruins the food"

What do you think?
>>
No. She could bake pretty well, but everything else was gross. Mushy boiled or microwaved vegetables, all the red meat she has cooked in her life has been beyond well done. She doesn't even defrost frozen meat before she cooks it, just pulls it out of the freezer and cooks it straight away.

She has also smoked for the past 40 years, so everything probably tastes like ash to her anyway.

That's why I had to learn to cook at a very young age if I didn't want to eat garbage.

i feel sorry for you.

My mom actually worked in a restaurant and was a amazing cook. Used to nag people from other countries about their recipes and spices. Tried out new stuff all the time. And most of it was just amazing.

I wish i would ever archive her level of skill.
>>
Everything is usually over or under cooked
>>
>>7762598
she's alright, but she actually hates cooking, so it's mostly the same dishes that taste good. back when i lived with her i introduced her to foreign spices (i live in country that's very conservative about local spices and herbs), and she learned pretty fast how to use them right.

She has talent, but never fleshed it out beyond what's simple and yummy enough.

My mother is actually a pretty terrible cook. It feels bad, man.
>>
>>7762598
Yeah.

Being Mexican she brought recipes from her mother and grandmother into dinner frequently, as well as comfort food favorites, and enjoyed trying new things that were successful 99% of the time.

I genuinely look forward to her food every time I go visit her.
>>
>>7762598
She used to be. That was 15 years ago.
Now she puts in $100 worth of prime rib and cooks it for 6 hours at 350 because she didn't set a timer and repeatedly fell asleep on the couch without checking the time.
>>
>>7762598
I taught myself how to cook at age 10 so that I wouldn't have to choke down tasteless, overcooked food. She does make a great enchilada casserole though, for what that's worth.

My mother actually taught me to appreciate food at a very young age by including me in food preparation in our living room and talking about the food we made from a very young age. Her food was delicious and still affects how I judge recipes to this day. Her love of food and her dedication to teaching her child live on even though she died an awful death 14 years ago.

Sorry to hear of your moms passing but a least you can make & appreciate her recipes , to keep her liveing on , my mom did the same thing with us , got my 1st job at 13 As a dishwasher so I could learn from some of the best chefs lernd a lot from them but lernd the love of food from Mom , can also make top tear stuff of my own , but still go to some of her best old standbys like beef stew , Mac & cheese , saurkrut & pork , nefew once almost dumped a girl cause she didn't think the Mac & cheese was good
>>
NO

When I was seven, in 2002, she made a dish called "orange chicken" by baking a whole chicken doused in orange juice at 400 for four hours. I knew from looking at it that is was inedible, and did not partake. I've been cooking my own meals/scavenging thru the kitchen since I was four. I learned to use the stove at six.
>>
>>7762598
My mother is the exact opposite of Jack. She overcooks everything.

Her steaks are so overdone and so dry you literally have to drench them in some sauce.

I dread the sunday lunches when I pay my parents a visit.

She used to. Then decided we should eat "healthy". The day she tried to serve us the water in which she cooked a cauliflower as a soup, my father got super pissed, threw it all on the garden and took over cooking. The only thing she is allowed to do now is Christmas dinner (because only she and my sister know the secret recipe) and baked goods.
>>
Not really. If it didn't involve lamb and come from a crock pot, it was burnt hamburger helper made with ground pork. We raised our own pork, chicken, turkey, and lamb and it always makes me angry that she wasted it on cheap shitty meals.
>>
>>7762598
For the most part. I can make food from different countries and she doesn't like it, but she makes some things better than I can. Things like lemon chicken and meatloaf she makes better than I do.
>>
>>7762842
Ditto. My.mom was a damn good cook up until she lost most of her family and.turned to drugs.
>>
>>7762598
Who is this hamburger helper?
>>
>>7762598
Pretty good even though she didn't like cooking much. She took it as her duty as a mother to feed her kids properly. Her roast beef was dry as leather though.
>>
>>7763260
Did she die i na plane crash or something?
>>
>>7762598
Depends
She was and is better than me at anything mediterranean. She refuses to cook most of our local cuisine so I suspect I may have an edge over her there, with some dishes as an exception.
She couldn't cook asian to save her life. Her idea of curry is some watery shit that has curry powder in it.

Yes. Grandma was from Osaka and Grandpa was Japanese-Hawaiian. Mom made a lot of Japanese and Hawaiian comfort food type things when I was growing up. Then she got a job working with a bunch of Southeast Asians, so they taught her a bunch of Laotian and Vietnamese recipes. I try to help my mom cook whenever I am over at her house these days.

Eh. Don't let her around meat or she'll burn it to a crisp, but overcooking meat is pretty common I suppose.

>tfw boiling chicken

My entire childhood was basically:

>Shepherds pie
>Fish pie
>Kedgeree
>Spaghetti Bolognese
>Sausage and mash + gravy
>Baked potato and mash + gravy
>Gammon and eggs

Any attempt to experiment was borderline inedible. Those 7 were tasty though.
>>
nah, dad was always the cook (until the divorce, and then he was always the every other weekend cook)
>>
Loved it.

She's Guatemalan but knows Mexican recipes as well since my dad is Mexican. Had a tendency of putting a but too much lime on things, but nothing horrible. She can't bake at all and one time forgot eggs for a cake.

Both of my parents were and still are ace cooks. The kitchen has always been the nexus of their home. Every girl I've ever loved tenderly has been a terrible cook though.

She was so good at cooking that during my childhood l used to reject food that she didn't make. Probably the only bad part was the overdone steak, but that was because she didn't want me to get sick.

[spoiler]I miss her.[/spoiler]
>>
>>7762598
She was - and in fact still is - annoyingly in love with trying out ridiculous and nonsensical substitutions in recipes that she's making for the first time. Also she can't not overcook meat.

Her baking was pretty God tier. I've never had a sourdough that was on par with hers. Cookies, cakes, rolls, danishes, pies you name it were amazing and loved by family and friends alike.

She was a very good cook, but suffered from some serious flaws. Cronic under salter. Red meat was always slightly over done, but to be fair I have a preference for bloody meat. Pork and chicken where always on the dry side, a trait both my sisters suffer from. Lots of casseroles and canned goods due to us being pretty poor until I was in hs. She was exceptional at transforming trash cuts of meat into gold.

Overall she was very good and taught me so many fundamentals.

she had to retire from porn because her knees were BTFO after years of vollyball and stripping
>>
I used to think she was as a child but after learning to cook myself and having cooked with her a few times recently, nah she's average.
>>
Her cooking is tasty but I can count her recipes with just one hand.
>>
She grew up in the 1940s/1950s: so, no. Her childhood was definitely worse: back then they used to boil vegetables until all the colour went out of them, when they got vegetables. Fruit were treats good children got at Christmas. Vitamins were things that happened to other people. She actually got yellow jaundice as a child from malnutrition as a result, so, that was a thing.

She burns things, because she is from an era when it wasn't considered safe not to.

My dad is a worse cook. I don't know what he did to that gammon all those years ago, and I don't want to know.

She hates following recipes, and whenever she uses one would purposely skip directions or add a bunch of unnecessary ingredients that result in a convoluted dish with too many flavors that don't go together. But when she doesn't do that she's all right

Yeah, my mom went through that phase of not using salt and subbing in margarine for fat because "IT'S SOOOO HEALTHY NOW"
>>
No, I mostly learned how to cook because my mom doesn't even try to make decent meals. She doesn't make unhealthy shit, but everything that she makes is so fucking bland and easy I couldn't take it anymore. Now whenever I go back home I'm either in charge of cooking or I eat outside, I'm not eating anything that she makes anytime soon
