I cooked!

Well, okay, I boiled chicken in a pressure cooker. And then I made soup. And called my mother fifteen times asking for directions.

But! I cooked! Greatness, here I come!

HAHAHAHA oh boy can I ever empathize.

Sigh.

I do that. *nods*

[swatkat24.livejournal.com]

It's the only way.

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cooking~!~

[swatkat24.livejournal.com]

YAY!

[donnaimmaculata.livejournal.com]

Well, soups can be tricky, so double yay for your success!

[swatkat24.livejournal.com]

YAY!

Woohoo! I call my dad at least 5 times for any recipe he gives me. Also I have never made chicken in my life, nor anything in a pressure cooker. Go you!

Also I have never made chicken in my life, nor anything in a pressure cooker.

But on the OTHER hand, this is all I've ever made. Except instant noodles and eggs, that is. So.

Horray! And HEE! I think I would need to do that, too. Only it'd be my dad - my mother tends to make her pastries explode. ^^

[swatkat24.livejournal.com]

I don't think my dad has ever handled a pressure cooker in his life - except maybe while washing it. *g*

Heh. You do know there's no turning back on the path to cooking greatness, right? ;)

[swatkat24.livejournal.com]

Well, I always knew I was destined for cooking greatness. It's in my genes. It's just the... actually doing the cooking part that's been the problem so far.

Ah, but did you make your own stock, from vegetables lovingly roasted then simmered and strained? Or did you chicken out - so to speak - and use store broth, or worse, bouillon cubes? Checks entry. Oh.
Enough with the shamajdargiri. Congratulations!

[swatkat24.livejournal.com]

I sort of tried to make my own stock - and then added those instant thingys to it. *g*

[jaybee65.livejournal.com]

A pressure cooker! Intimidating! Go, you!

[swatkat24.livejournal.com]

I did have some trouble with opening and closing the lid, but I appear to have mastered the pressure cooker. *g*

Congratulations. As someone who would happily eat chicken three or four times a week, I'm glad to learn that you're off and running on the feed yourself program.

If you can master a pressure cooker, you've done more than many quite good home cooks.

Yes, although I have my mother to thank for it. Who hammered the point in my head and forced me to buy utensils.

Also, it's the feed yourself (and three other friends) programme. *g*

If you can cook a chicken in a pressure cooker (or roast it, which is what I often do) you can do all kinds of things with cold chicken. Just saying.

What kind of soup? Heh, I do the same thing, only with my father. "Hi, it's me again. I wanted to know: what was it I was supposed to have started 20 minutes ago that I didn't? ... Mhmm. Well, will it ruin the dish? ... Oops."
