General - Can you cook? - View Post

I'm good at pasta, soups, rice, sautés, chinese and japanese noodles and some savoury pies and several dishes grilled and au gratin, but I wish I were at least decent at cooking sweets, I suck at them. I'm decent at cooking beef steak, quite good at cooking pig, but not good for roast beef and roast chicken. I can make decent pizza too and yesterday I made a tasty bread with pumpkin, sunflower, sesame and flax seeds, as shops were closed and traffic blocked for the flood. Usually, though, I prepare frozen ready dishes to save time, but I almost always add some fresh ingredients (usually vegetables) to them to improve their taste and give the feel of not frozen food. And I make decent sushi, particularly with trout roe, when my mom removes and keeps it apart before roasting the trout.

Edit:

PS While I can cook some tasty dishes with shrimps and other crustaceans, I prefer to prepare fish raw, as I'm no good at cooking it (except  sautéed for some sauces and seasonings for pasta and rice or breaded or battered and fried or very oily fishes I can make au gratin without their mouthfeel becoming too dry).
