I first started cooking when I was about fourteen years old. I enjoyed it because it made me feel important, and I liked helping my mom out. I found one of my favorite recipes, two years after I started cooking, through one of my close friends. He made it for me once and it was nothing like I had ever tasted before, so I got the recipe from him. After that I made it one time for my family and they absolutely loved it. It was called Russian Chicken and occasionally, they would ask me to make it again. I enjoy making Russian Chicken because it is inexpensive and easy. The most important part to this recipe is the ingredients. I go to the store and get one big bottle of Russian dressing, but if they do not have that I get two small bottles of instead. Also, I need a packet of dry onion soup mix, but they come in boxes so I just buy a box and only use one packet out of it. Then one jar of apricot jam or preserves is needed as well.

The evolution of cooking is positively influenced by the introduction of television and technology on American culture.
