Cooking isn’t really that difficult. There are many simple recipes that produce tasty, nutritious meals.
True. Very simple. Most items don’t require a recipe but there are people who can’t scramble an egg to save their lives.
I watched a 55 year old man try to scramble an egg. Took him 20 minutes and it was still raw.
Our 4th grade daughter entered a 4-H cooking contest with crepes and the judges nearly disqualified her saying she was too young to cook crepes. 4-H no less! 4-H kids have all sorts of life skills. Geez, crepes are no brainers. Well, those same judges praised the Home Extension worker’s 18 year old senior in high school for entering a salsa that consisted of a can of blackeyed peas and some jarred picante. Two weeks later, daughter made the entire Thanksgiving dinner and desserts by herself from scratch (no written recipes) and only asked for help to lift the 25 lb turkey out of the oven.
