Hey! Good day to you all

I’d like to know everyone’s story behind their love for cooking. At what age did you discover you loved and wanted to know how to cook?
I remember a particular holiday back in junior secondary school. I was alone at home most of the time(my parents were always at work and my siblings were away at uni) It was the perfect opportunity for me to experiment as I could easily dispose of the food if it turned out bad


. The first dish I made was as expected, really horrible

but I kept trying and got better and better!. I kept recreating recipes in my head and those I saw on TV or the internet. It was really a moment for me. At the end of that holiday, I had made a dish my entire family ate and enjoyed. The love for cooking was born in me at that point and I’ve continued to learn and get better

i don't actually love to cook but I know how to, I am satisfied when people enjoy my cooking so it encourages me to cook more or make that dish more often

When I was 18, my mother became ill. So I spent a month cooking. But I felt delighted on those days when I was cooking. After every cooking, I felt fulfilled. Apart from music and reading books, it relieves stress. Even now, when I'm stressed, I just cook something with whatever stuff I have on hand, regardless of how it turns out. And I always get excited when I get to serve the dish I made to others.

I like to eat. Plus I just like using my hands to make something no matter how small or big. Cooking is a really good skill when you think about it.

I spent my childhood seeing my grandmother and my parents cook. Now when I cook, it brings back so many fond memories.

There’s something about relaxing about cooking, especially at the end of the day with a glass of wine. I also love feeding my family and knowing they are taken care of and have full bellies.

I mainly lived with my grandparents growing up. Home life wasn’t the best. My grandma worked as a waitress into my adult years. I was taught to cook so I could make dinner for my grandfather while grandma was working. Papa was a champ because even when it turned out bad he still ate it. It took many years of practice to get as good as I am now. I absolutely love to cook because I love seeing the smiles on others faces.
