my hubby, his father did.

I believe I am, and I believe they all would agree. My grandmother and mother are my mentors. I took what I learned, added my own zings, and now make stomachs and people happy.
by DaniMac on October 28th, 2009
My hubby is best at meats/main courses & I'm better with veggies, side dishes & soups. We were both self taught. Hubby is a foodie though. He can look at a spice or seasoning & pair it with the oddest stuff & it turns out amazing!

Hard to choose between my three children.All take pride in cooking. Mostly self taught but I gave them the love of diverse cuisine so they are all adventurous cooks..Taught all of them the basics, including my son.

I am, and I learned in mandatory home ec class in school and also taught myself by joining a cookbook club when I was 13. I did this in self defense as both my parents were terrible cooks.
by Mike81069 on October 28th, 2009

My father is. I don't know who taught him - never asked him about it. But despite that I don't try to learn from him - I have my own cooking style and way of preparing the food.
by curlysue on November 22nd, 2009
My grandmother,her mom.

I am, without a doubt, the best cook in the family, and i taught myself. In fact i am hosting Turkey day w/ a 26 lb turkey and all the trimmings:)
by Brian I on November 3rd, 2009
My wife. She got the basics from her mother, especially dinners. Also she had some input from my mother, especially cakes and pastries. Then she went to night school and did a cordon bleu cookery course.
Our older son is next best - his home-made crême caramel and crême brulée are to die for.
by kat on November 3rd, 2009
Me.Mostly my Grandmother taught me.She was the best!Also learned from Mom,Dad,other Grandmother,aunt,hubby,and practice.
by quack is whack on November 3rd, 2009
Me ^_^ I learned from my mother who learned from my grandmother - and improved it =P I'm actually kind of competitive when it comes to my culinary skillz.
by guirion on October 31st, 2009
I am.
I learned from my Grandmother, 4yrs of culinary school, 15 yrs working as a Chef for others and 4 yrs now with my catering business.
by Gone on October 31st, 2009
My grandmother, I wish I could have her back. Her good cooking on a budget was second to none and healthy too.
+5
by lovestocook on October 28th, 2009
I am - my mother was a good cook and taught me the basics. But I have gone way beyond that.But, the cuisine and knowledge is way better than 50 years ago.
by J and B on October 28th, 2009
My sister. And her Italian mother-in-law, from Italy, taught her.
by thetruth on October 28th, 2009
My mom. I don't know who taught her because my grandma doesn't cook. I think I'm pretty good myself and I learned some through my mother and mostly through recipes, the foodnetwork channel, and trial and error.
by Rollie on October 28th, 2009
My wife by far. She learned from her 1st mother-in-law and is also self taught.
by lenalove on December 2nd, 2009
Alive family members ME BY MILES everyone would live off take away or breakfast meals without me. In the most modest way put lol
by Theby on November 30th, 2009
My father used to do most of our cooking. He also made great cakes and cookies, fresh beautiful jam and pickled onions. He taught himself to cook and loved to cook. Mind you, it may have been a case of survival as my mother was a terrible cook.
by Ed the Jetpacking Headbanger on November 26th, 2009
Now that my sister has passed away, that would be me. Taught a little by my mother and the rest self taught.
by Galeanda on November 26th, 2009
Humbly, I'll say I am. I was taught by my mother and I learned by myself, reading and watching, talking with others who really cared about getting the most and the best flavor out of their ingredients and serving things with love.
by downtide on November 26th, 2009
My partner, who trained as a professional chef.

HOLD ON LET ME GO AND ASK THEM I WILL BE QUICK!
by KikiSpaghetti on November 26th, 2009
I'm going to say my mother. She can basically wipe up ANYTHING from scratch, with or without a recipe. She learned from my grandmother, who again, was astounding in the kitchen. I hope to to cook like my mum one of these days.
by citaj.com on November 26th, 2009
Actually we are all talented from my mom side, and from dad's side, my grandma makes great meals.
by Sparky on November 22nd, 2009
My wife. I'd describe her as largely self taught, with a generous sprinkling of ideas from her grandmother, and whatever recipes look good to her.
Would you be willing to share what you typically eat in one day? Include beverages with the exclusion of water.
