Cooking is a necessity for everyone. Everyone in their life time needs to learn how to cook because cooking makes food taste better. Without cooking, everyone would eat raw fruits, vegetables etc. I am still learning how to cook but I consider it my hobby. Cooking is my hobby because I can spend time with my family, it is fun and because of the Food Network Channel. I now a days rarely spend time with my family. I am busy with homework, college applications and ACT/SAT tests. I have no time to sit down a chat with my family. I love my family every much, but I could be better of spending my time finishing all that I have to do to make time for my family. One of the few times I get to spend with my family is by cooking. I usually help my mom cook lunch and dinner during the weekends and cook with my dad on the weekdays. I am still a beginner. I can only the basic breakfast items like eggs, pancakes etc. Whenever I help my parents out, I am always learning and I get to spend time with time. When the food is cooking and I have to stand watching the pot till it is done, I talk with my mom and dad. Sometimes, my brother would come in and …show more content…
While cooking, I can come up with so many ideas. I can mix ingredients together and concoct some type of dish. I consider cooking as a science and experiment. Before cooking, all the materials must be gathered. After that, you follow the procedures on the recipe until you get a result. After the result, you make a conclusion about adjusting that ingredient amounts and temperature etc. Cooking opens up a possibility of anything to happen. I can make something really good that I didn’t expect to make, or I can make something bad that it causes some people to go to the hospital. I hope I don’t hurt people with my cooking; I am not a professional, but I am decent. Cooking is fun and entertaining on the rare occasion that I have nothing to
Cooking is something that has been around since the beginning and something that we cannot afford to loose. Cooking is what makes us human, what provides us with the right nutrients and what keeps us from falling into the industries trap. Michael Pollan’s The Cooking Animal reinforced my belief on the importance of home cooked meals and also expands it.
Although Samuelsson is interested in a variety of activities, his meaningful occupation is cooking. Introduced to him at an early age, he practiced cooking throughout his life, and it developed into his meaningful occupation. Occupation is the synthesis of doing, being, and becoming, (Wilcock, 1999, p.) Doing is the human engagement in an occupation (Wilcock, 1999, p. 4). For Samuelsson, doing is cooking. The occupation of cooking is a physical activity that involves the use of the whole body, which includes activities such as cutting, stirring, mixing, standing, and walking. Wilcock (1999) describes being as, “…about being true to ourselves, to our nature, to our essence and to what is distinctive about us to bring to others as part of our relationships and to what we do” (p. 5). Samuelsson’s being is as a chef. As he is doing the occupation of cooking, his essence or existence in that moment is
Do you like eating at restaurants and fast food places? Almost everyone does, but do we really know how healthy and unhealthy the food we are eating is? Labeling food menu choices should become a law. As stated in passage "Label the Meals", one thing both arguments can agree on is that healthy people are happier and more productive. If labeling meals in food places taken upon, it is a way of helping people take charge of their well-being. People should have the obligation of viewing the nutrition information whether the food is nutritious or not.
Ever since I was little, I enjoyed being in the kitchen with my mom, dad and other family members. As long as I can remember, I was always there, trying to help out in whatever I could and what my family members would let me. When I was eight, I baked my first batch of chocolate chip cookies and ever since then I developed a passion and dedication for baking that has helped to teach many
“How ironic --- he waged war against the English for ten long years and then died in his bed like anyone else” (Dumas 2). Dantes was speaking to Monsieur Morrel about Captain Leclere’s death. I took a particular liking to this quote because no matter who we are or what we do in life, we all end up in the same place. “Joy sometimes has a strange effect: it can oppress us almost as much as sorrow” (Dumas 18). Dantes said this to Danglars and Caderousse.
The series consistently brings up our primal need to cook, while trying to entice us back into the kitchen with beautiful cinematography, personal stories about people, and the cultural impact of the things we take for granted. There 's no doubt that Cooked is a passion project, with a strong message, however, there are many inconsistencies with the argument they present. These inconsistencies mostly revolve around a failure to negate questions of how to achieve their idealist viewpoints, cherry picking scientific evidence, and simultaneously trying to dismantle food industry fuckery while supporting a fallacy.
For some people, cooking is a fuss, or they can just not do it. For me, it’s almost second nature. I make dinner for my family almost every night consequently, I take time away from my homework to fix up something for dinner. I do it because my family and I need food to go on, and most of my family is dog-tired from work, or just don’t know what to make or how to cook food.

The book is highly informative and educational, and as Michael Ruhlman wrote I could feel his learned passion for the craving to become a cook. He did the greater part of the course, both preparing to be a gourmet expert and expounding on it as a writer. Ruhlman learned the fundamentals of cooking stocks, roux, vegetables, and sauces; also, he gained the experience of working the front of the house by waiting tables. Most importantly, he gained the knowledge of the meaning of being a chef to become a leader within the industry. You were expected to know the answers to all the questions in the Culinary Institute of American (CIA), and know why things happen the way they do. As chef Pardus would add, “you better know how to do it” (35).
Culinary art is a momentous part of my life.When I was around the age of nine I was living with both my mom and dad. I was always in the kitchen helping my mom cook dinner. I made baked ziti, empanadas, sweet potato pie, and other foods.When I was in high school, I lived with my father,and after my older siblings grew up it was just me and my little sister so I was responsible for cooking the meals.

I am passionate about it because it excites me, inspires me, and encourages me to open a restaurant.
From a young age, I have always wanted to know how and why the things around me work. Science was one of my more well-liked subjects throughout my schooling years. I am able to excel in these subjects because I have developed a strong interest in them and I enjoy the process of learning new things. I have always wanted to go to university to study a science-based subject. While browsing through the variety of courses available in your university, I came across "Food Science" and it caught my attention. That was when I knew it would be the right course for me.
The way we eat food has changed drastically in the past few decades. When I think of the process of how our food is made and produced, I typically think of a farm with animals laying around, eating grass, content with everything. Also, I picture ripe red tomatoes, apples, and sweet smelling fruit being pick right when it is ripened so it can get to our grocery stores. This is typically how most people picture our food coming from a farm. It is how they want us to picture it, because it is a happy image: but, it is far from the reality of how things are.
As a foodie, eating foods is my favorite thing and I also find my speciality in eating, that is tasting food and know the condiment in every dishes.
