Cooking Is Hard..
I have recently tried cooking a meal for the family and completely failed. The dish that I was trying to prepare was the famous Mexican food that most people love, Carne Asada with red rice and beans with a salad on the side. I was talking to my mom one day when I told her cooking was easy and bet her that I would be able to cook a better meal than her. BIG MISTAKE. I began with the salad because it is the easiest thing to make, and it keeps the family happy while the meal is being prepared. I finished the salad, the rice and the beans. I even made some homemade salsa that goes perfect with the meat. Everything I had prepared up to this point was perfect and was running smoothly as I had planned. Felling confident I began to gloat and tell my family that cooking is a piece of cake and I didn't understand why people say cooking is hard. Well I quickly found out why they say that. As I was preparing the meat and began too cook it on the grill, I wasn't able to figure out why the meat was burning or why it was coming out almost raw. My family began to grow impatient with how long I was making them wait so I gave up and asked my mom to do it for me, and told her I am never going to cook again.

Pablo, you should start watching cooking shows. I'll watch them with ya because I surely can't cook either. My parents always joke about how when I'm going away next fall I'm going to starve. They won't be there to cook for me. I'm guessing your parents will also expect you to lean to cook for yourself, too. The reality is that our generation has become so dependent on either our parents or fast food restaurants. Time to hit up the Food Network.
ReplyDeleteHow i learned how to cook is just hanging out in the kitchen of my grandparents or my parents. I Just sat there and i just ask what is she putting in the pan. so i suggest you just hang out in the kitchen :)
