    I start cooking from boil egg, and then fire egg. these are the most easy things to cook.

    I guess you learn when there's a need for it

    try living on your own, and because you need to cook for yourself, you'll find a way to learn

    oh, and tv cooking shows are the shit.. love foodnetwork, fat person's porn :p

    I just like to watch cooking shows. I don't remember the recipes, I just try and keep in mind the techniques they use and why they use certain ingredients. Then I just try to mess around with basic foods such as pasta and rice, and then combine it with whatever I have in the fridge.

    Usually turns out ok...sometimes surprisingly good, other times it's just....blehhh
