Hello Mawake and welcome to Chef Talk. We're glad you found us, too, because we hope you'll participate here and add your observations and knowledge as well. While we have many veteran and expert people in the culinary world, we have a roughly equal number of home cooks (like me) who feel comfortable sharing and learning here too. :)

Please have a look around the site and all its features. We hope you visit and participate often!

What do you enjoy cooking? How did you come by your love of food?

Welcome!

My mother was a good cook and we had Home Ec in school and I learned to enjoy cooking then and it stuck. (Guess I just dated myself!)
I guess I just love cooking in general and eating nutritious food that is delicious--which is sometimes hard to do. I like to bake bread and would love to become proficient at it. I'm a chocoholic big time and have a weakness for desserts--especially pastries. I would like to understand how to substitute ingredients to make dishes more healthy. Example: My grandson (11) has low blood sugar. So I have been trying to find some recipes for him with low carbs and sugar substitutes. He is on such a limited diet. I tried making him some sourdough bread and cookies without sugar and I wasn't successful. But I will keep trying.

I am married, retired, and live in a suburb north of Atlanta and have 3 grandchildren.
