According to Gordon Ramsay, we're in the golden age of dorm-room cooking, as a result of social platforms where students can exchange cooking hacks, and the proliferation of devices like crock pots and portable burners. "These low-budget, accessible, and creative dorm-room meals are opening up new possibilities for all cooks with limited kitchen access, from low-budget travelers staying in hostels to anyone struggling with housing insecurity to housemates tired of waiting for their turn to use the oven," writes Grey Moran. Here's their story for Civil Eats. We'd like to know: How would you rate your cooking abilities?
Hooray for the fediverse! 60 percent of voters in this poll said they were a good, confident cook, and 37% said they can do the basics, with just 4% owning up to being terrible cooks. @thepoliticalcat says they're an excellent cook, but they only cook for the people they love. And we pondered some more poll options we could have included: The showy dinner-party chef, the cook who can whip things up from nothing, the overconfident experimenter, and the jaded parent who just. can't. think. of what. to make. for dinner. 🙋🏻♀️
@thepoliticalcat Yes, there are actually a lot of different ways you can define your cooking skills — the showy dinner-party chef, the cook who can whip things up from nothing, the overconfident experimenter, the jaded parent who just. can't. think. of what. to make. for dinner.
