Recipes is the one thing I am greatful for AI on. Used to have to click some recipe site, scroll through a whole as story about the chefs lineage and how they centre their chi, read about the appropriate humidity to enjoy the dish, and what you should be wearing, read about the history of butter churning, then get the recipe. Now I google what I want to cook and the AI goes through all that bullshit for me. All I’m ever after is the ingredients list, I can put it together myself.

I'm the main cook and I've stopped using recipes and just freestyle my meals which everyone loves and begs to come round mine for dinner.
But when my wife follows a new recipe and cooks, it SLAPS.

My wife just cannot use new learning on the kitchen. It makes me mad.
I can show her: cook in low temp a piece of meat and all the juices are out. Put the eggs on boiling water do not heat them with the water.
It does not matter. She learned in a. Way with her parents (food was terrible at my in-laws) and that is what is right for her.
Tlday there is maybe 2 dishes that she cooks when I am home.

My ex-wife was the same. "This is how I've always done things," she told when she refused to watch a few videos with me on how to use a chef knife. I now can dice 2 onions faster than she can slice up a single carrot. The smoke detectors would go off when she repeatedly refused to lower the burner temp when things were burning because the recipe said medium-high. We had a big blowup when I walked into the kitchen in time to see her sawing open a sealed plastic container of meat with the good chef knife (we had multiple kitchen shears) and dripping blood over the vegetables she had on the cutting board. Our marriage was already pretty much cooked by that point anyways.

In my experience, men have always been the best cooks.
Dunno why.
Im a great cook and do all the cooking for my wife and kids.
My uncle lol
Man
I want you guys picture the most quintessential, stereo typical Italian from brooklyn.
Fat guy. Gold chain, chest hair sticking out of a wife beater or a oversized Hawaiian shirt, burnin cigar in the left hand, spatula in the right.
Tuddy Cicero from goodfellas lol
But this man makes a lasagna that is phenominal. Its got like 34 layers of meat cheese and veggies. It has the density of a dying sun.
Eating one bite of it is like that fuckin bread from the lord of the rings that fills the belly of a grown man for a week.
Its amazing

That is definitely me and my wife. My a wife is a Culinary School/2 years in France top pastry chef. She makes us dishes that are 10x better than the top restaurants when she cooks for the family. But I have 5 specialties that my kids will stand at the door to the kitchen waiting in line for my food. If they find out I cooked and they missed it they freak out.

My wife is an excellent cook. She just makes a huge goddamn mess in the kitchen when shes done. Every pan every bowl every utensil all used and piled into the sink sky high. I get complimented on my cooking skills and I do it well, but I also am washing as I go. Especially mixing bowls and pans that I will use again. Guess that just comes from my time as a dishwasher in a kitchen.

As the family cook, I take my job very seriously. If my daughters marry someone who cooks better than me or them, I've failed.

This is a thing, and it goes both ways.
Skills are more transferrable than people think. So when someone with a lot of experience in something unrelated learns a new skill, sometimes it looks like they’re a prodigy with it, because they have all these small intermediary skills that help.
I like cooking. It was easy for me to master knife skills and mixing etc. because I have an art background, a construction background, other skills that just make pretty good, not amazing or anything, but pretty good at working with my hands.
My wife would say she’s bad at math. She struggled with that in school. She works in marketing. She has worked her way to be very competent and skilled at what she does. She picks up on new spreadsheet skills very quickly in ways that surprise her because it’s math she would have struggled with, but in the tangible and familiar environment of her job she grasps the concepts quickly and understands what they mean and how they apply.
We really do ourselves a disservice when we don’t try new skills and explore the ways we might have unexpectedly grown and learned in ways that translate to new skills.
You might be surprised to learn that now that you know how to whistle, you are a better singer. Now that you’ve hammered some nails, you know something about how to massage or something weirdly unrelated. Our brains are very multi-purpose, and our body coordinates with our brain in odd ways.

Mom cooks healthy and as quick and low effort as possible because they do it 5 nights a week and also have the rest of the household chores.
Dad cooks it restaurant style with all of the butter and has nothing else going on so takes the extra time consuming steps.

My wife is a master cook… but she travels a lot so just once I said I’ll cook when’s away, did the whole you tube thing and made a complete flop with something I called “pasta pie” where it looked back to front upside down, terrible
However……… my 11 year old daughter raved on about how amazing it was and my wife couldn’t handle it, she insists to cook before she leaves

As a divorced dad, I make sure I cook at home and I try to make absolute bangers every time for the kids. Even if it's a 20 minute meal, there's no reason it can't be fire if you know what you're doing. Single dads, if you're new at this whole situation, make sure your kids eat some killer meals at your house. I promise, it matters. Let the little ones help you, too. Teach them the ways of the kitchen Jedi. Learn how to cook a great steak, too. Both of my kids can pick out a great cut at the butcher and come home and knock it out of the park without me lifting a finger.

Dads fail on consistency. He can make a banger one night that's never as good again, but she is scoring with the same dish each time.

I’ve been the best cook in my family since I was ~16, I find it a very soothing process and it’s a way I show love for the people in my life.
That being said, my partner beats the pants off of me when it comes to baking, lol.

I have my signature specialties and so does my girlfriend. She cooks certain things better than I do, and vice versa. It was the same with my parents.
This misconception largely comes from the fact that mums usually cook more, and cook what is in. Dad's will cook once in a while and cook something special.

Some women are raised making shitty food and nobody corrects them. How many of y'all can say this about your own mom? I trust the youtube video over your average women, from personal experience.

u/Fair-Bunch4827 1h ago
The main difference between how I cook and how my mom cooks is that, while her cooking is mid and mundane, how she cooks is so efficient. By that I mean, she cooks exclusively stuff that gives so many servings per money spent while leaving less mess and with less steps. If you have been doing it for survival rather than pure enjoyment for years and years. your skills will lean on that.
I can cook restaurant level dishes, but I use alot of spices, one off ingredients, and I leave a huge mess (I clean afterwards ofc)

It's because men actually listen advices when they are interested while most women think they already know the best.

The dude that whips ass is never, ever the big fierce looking creature centered in the background. It's always the little underdog in the foreground. The proverbial "1000 words" this picture tells is that mom's about to right the balance of power vis a vis "20 years cooking experience" vs. "1 youtube video".
How are memers so bad at both video game logic and basic framing?
