| You Are a Learning Cook |
You've got the makings of an excellent cook, and the desire to be one. But right now, you're just lacking the experience. You couldn't be a top chef yet, but you could be an apprentice. |
This is so uncanny.
It never occurred for me to take up Home Economics in school, and I would rather saw and chisel a piece of wood than to hold a spatula for that matter. In fact, I had never cooked a meal in my life prior to getting married. The Hub was a much better cook than I am. I used to observe in awe as he prepared his beef stew, or a tantalising pot of Japanese curry.
To me, flour is flour. It means nothing to me whether they are artisan flour, wheat flour, high-gluten flour, cake flour, self-raising flour, corn flour or just plain flour. Ok, you get the point.
These days, I tend to have mild discomfort if my fridge doesn't stock up slabs of unsalted butter, cream cheese, good baking chocolates such as Valrohna, or just good old flour. Suffice to say, I have enough flour to make 3 cakes, 24 muffins or several dozens of cookies now.
The kitchen used to be an unchartered territory for me. These days, the kitchen is my domain. If anyone in the Household steps in, it's mandatory that they abide by my rules.
The Hub said I have come a long way; my cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds. Well, I have him to thank for a well-equiped kitchen, and many bestest gadgets he had bestowed on me.
