I've been shown many tricks and methods by some clever foodies over the years. So I guess you could call them "lessons" Mostly self/ big sister taught. My mother was born and grew up in Northamptonshire so I have a bit of the "old country" in my repertoire. My Dad's family were from Northern California and I had some influences from them too.
I have recently become interested in Australian indigenous food.
Neither my ex partner or ex husband ever cooked for me but then that’s my own fault, as l wouldn’t let them!
Once when my son was home from Australia, he announced he was going to cook me a meal.
I was very wary as l didn’t know he could cook and l was worried it would be awful and l’d have to eat it!
Anyway, before he started he shoved me into another room and gave me strict orders not to come into the kitchen.
He made me Teriyaki Chicken and it was delicious!
(Not a School meal in my day but it could well be, these days! )
