I don't really know how to cook. I watch my mom how she cook things, but never tried them. But I started cooking eggs and simple stuff like that when I was in junior high. Same with baking. I basically just followed the instructions and I guess same with cooking. I watch tutorials on youtube! LOL!

I started cooking when I was 9 years old.  I started out with French fries and baked pork chops.  Cooking  became a necessity because my late grandmother, and I love her to death, was not the greatest cook.  My sister next to me, my sister next to her and my brother all cook.  My youngest sister is not the greatest cook either.  She doesn't like to season her food.  My mother and my aunt were great cooks. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :wave:

My grandfather had me in the kitchen with him as soon as I could reach everything . I'm pretty sure I cooked more before 10 then I have in the past 13 years. I can cook I just don't like to so I don't. I do love to bake though

I can't recall the age I was at the time......but, I remember I had to stand in a kitchen chair to reach the stove!   :dontknow:  My mother and grandmother taught me.

I don't think I ever realized I was actually learning as I watched my mom cook as a kid. Now when I am cooking o try and get my kids involved hoping they will pick it up too!!

I learnt to cook when I was in my early teens. At that age I couldn't resist slightly tweeking recipes and adding my own flavors. I enjoyed cooking and my mum enjoyed having a day off. I would share the prep work with my sister and together we would could up a storm in the kitchen. Nice memories.

I was in the kitchen with my mother as long as I can remember.  Then being on my own I had the background to learn as I needed.

I started when I was eight, but it's an ongoing process.

Never learned, and I don't intend to start now. ;)

It seems like i have been cooking all my life. I started by stnding on the kitchen stool helping grandma. Guess i was maybe 5. Buy the time i was 10 i was cooking for the family. Mom had to work so i took care of my brother and sister. But i do enjoy cooking. Bt eating ot once in a while is great. I often tweek what ever i am cooking, but that is the way you learn. A pinch of this or a handful of that is the way i learned.
