TMI QUESTIONS: KISS THE COOK!

KISS THE COOK!
1. How good of a cook are you?

I am an excellent cook and love to make gourmet meals making up something I’ve never tried before.  The only time I follow a recipe is for baking because those measurements can be critical.

2. Who taught you how to cook? 

I always watched everyone cook, especially my grandmother and my mother.  But I have gone way beyond that!  I do get some techniques from America’s Test Kitchen and Cook’s Corner.

3. Who does the cooking in your home?

I do ALL the cooking in my Wilmington home and at my farm.

4. Do you cook more or eat out more?

Rarely eat out, because the food is cheaper and better when I prepare it.  Also, I got my fill of eating out when I was traveling on the road as a consultant.

5. Are you more of a cook or dessert maker?

Main dishes, primarily.  For example, tonight, I prepared black beans and rice with Italian chicken sausages laced with okra, onions, and stewed tomatoes.  

Since I am diabetic, I no longer make desserts.

6. What was your worst/funniest cooking moment? 

I can’t remember a personal one.  However, my mother once blew up a pressure cooker, and our dinner of corned beef and cabbage was on the ceiling.

 

That rivals my ex-wife too quickly grabbing a cake pedestal with a chocolate cake on it to present to our guests when it slid off onto the floor!

7. What's your best dish?

My version of Paella with chicken, seafood, and yellow rice.

8. Is revenge a dish best served cold? 

No probably needs a lot of capsaicin from the hottest peppers that exist.

9. Is the best way to a man's heart truly through his stomach?  

I know a few men, including myself, that this would apply to.
