I am a young cook who loves anything to do with food. I am a college student who is studying elementary education. I have been cooking ever since I was a little kid. I learned how to cook my first dish at age 5, it was fried eggs and toast. I learned how to cook from my mom and my grandpa. Growing up I would often cook meals for my family and was very supported in my culinary adventures. I love trying new foods. I like cooking and trying different ethnic dishes, anything sweet, gourmet recipes, vegan recipes, and the traditional mexican food that I grew up with. My mother is a very good cook and made most of our meals from scratch. My favorite was her chocolate chip pancakes with peanut butter. They were awesome. I also love my grandmas homemade spaghetti sauce, she slow cooked it all day with delicious meatballs and chicken drumsticks. The meat was so tender and delicious. I am always trying new and different recipes, anytime I try a new recipe and it comes out good is a triumph for me. I can't cook rice. No matter how hard i try I can never get it to be fluffy and moist.
