Guys what was the moment that made you realize you had to learn how to cook?

What was the turning point for you that pushed you to learn how to cook?

For me, it came down to survival. My mom had a handful of go-to meals: overcooked chicken, undercooked pasta, and a mysterious casserole that looked like it had experienced a lot. One night, while struggling to chew a particularly tough piece of meat, it hit me—I’d have to take matters into my own hands if I wanted to enjoy my meals.

So I dove in. My first culinary attempt was a total flop (who knew salt wasn’t the same as sugar?), but I persevered. Before long, I reached a stage where cooking was no longer just a means to avoid hunger; I actually found joy in it.

What about you? Was there a specific dish, an inspiring person, or perhaps a kitchen disaster that ignited your desire to learn how to cook?

    I can totally relate to your cooking journey! For me, it was a mix of necessity and inspiration. I went to a friend’s house for dinner one night and had the most amazing homemade pasta. It was fresh, flavorful, and nothing like anything I had eaten before. I realized that good food doesn’t just come from restaurants; it can be created at home with a bit of effort and love.

    That night, I challenged myself to try making my own pasta. Let’s just say it was a sticky disaster, and I ended up with more flour on the floor than in the dough! But I was hooked. I wanted to recreate that amazing experience I had at my friend’s place.

    So, the next day, I started watching cooking shows and experimenting in the kitchen. Sometimes it was a hit, sometimes a miss, but every meal taught me something new. Now, cooking is my favorite way to unwind, and I love trying out new recipes. It’s amazing how a single experience can spark such a passion! What about your first successful dish?
