On a 1 - 10 scale, rate your cooking interest and skills.

[vimbaimarv]

10 lol that's why I became a professional Chef thank you

[Insightsintobooks729]

I'd place my skills at about a 3, but my enjoyment is at about six.

[KDeLeon15]

I'd have to rate my interest at about a 9 and my skill I'd say a fair 7. I cook too much for only two people but it's good food. I would rate higher than a 7 for skill except that I will almost always mess up a box dinner that should be easier to cook than from scratch.

[Kalin Adi]

My cooking interest 0 (I hate cooking)
My cooking skills, maybe 7 or 8 (That's why my husband says, so I cannot be completely sure of it )

[Angel West]

I'd rate myself an eight. Meals aren't regular because I live alone, but when I do cook I use spices and coconut oil and try to cook healthy, but it's always delicious. My weakness is bacon grease lol, a seasoning choice promoted by my grandmother. When I try new recipes I always tweak it and make it mine.

[CaitlinGonya]

7 or 8. I'm not great at it but I'm always willing to try. I'd lean more towards the 7 range than 8 though because of the fact that I have issues with making a roux.

[BookHausJ]

Ha ha! 5 maybe. I know how to cook. My mother and my uncle used to be cook. But I don't want to cook.

[DATo]

I just got into cooking this year and I'd rate myself a 4. I have made some pretty good dishes but I usually mess up in one way or another before I get it exactly right.

On the other hand I have a great advantage that other newbies to cooking do not have. I have a very good friend in Paris who is a chef and he has been tutoring me by phone and emails in the course of our communications. He even insisted on buying me a very expensive Boosblock cutting board, chef's knife, a set of bamboo implements and the best tongs on earth. He refuses to take any payment for them. Most importantly he has provided me with 4 star restaurant recipes and the subtle advice required to make them come out successfully, but I still have a lot to learn regarding just about everything connected to cooking.

EDITED TO ADD: I am proud of the fact that I can now boil an egg without it exploding [;- ) .

[fergie]

I quite enjoy cooking and would like to do more, but I live alone so tend not to. When I do, I'd rate my ability about 6/10 but when it comes to variety and innovation, rather than just cooking the same few dishes, 4/10!

[mandalee519]

I would also rate myself a 6. I like cooking when it's something new or on Thanksgiving day, but I definitely find myself over the stove out of obligation rather than enjoyment. Cooking is just cheaper than eating out!

[uyky]

Interest probably about 2. Skills maybe 5 or 6. I can cook if it's needed but it can taste very similar.

[Faith Atieno okoth]

Mine is at 8

[Mailis]

7 at baking, I guess 5 all-together. I am skilled enough to know how skilled a person can actually be and what I am lacking in knowledge.

[gunnyswife]

I'm an 8. I enjoy cooking and gave an interest, but I'm way too hard on myself if something goes wrong.

[crediblereading2]

I would rate my cooking skills and interests at 8 out of 10. This is because I was told that my cooking is very delicious.
