I am a professional young woman working in Dallas, Texas. I have two male roommates who love to eat and don't like to cook, so I usually get home and cook a huge meal that I think will last us into next week that usually only lasts us a day. On a tight budget and working long hours I look for easy, quick and huge meals to make that everyone enjoys.
My favorite things to cook
Soups, stews and chili. I can almost put the sink facets in with all the seasonings and it would still taste good. It's the one thing I can experiment on and not worry about if anyone is going to like it still.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mother can barely boil water, my grandma is a good cook much like my sister, but never taught us how to cook.
My cooking triumphs
To make a staple Texas Brisket without loosing the flavor and tenderness of the meat as most Texas Brisket is dry.
My cooking tragedies
I have tried to make a baked potatoes many times, and have never succeeded.
