Can your husband cook without a big fuss?

[Oyoh]

For example could he make a roast dinner and sticky toffee puddding without trashing the kitchen, pestering you for help/asking where things were and without losing his cool?

Mine wouldn't know where to begin with sticky toffee pudding (or any pudding from scratch really) but makes an amazing roast and does do it from time to time including Christmas Day.

My husband is the best cook I know, very closely followed by our 2 young adult sons.

I’m the one that is inept in the kitchen. I’ve never made a roast dinner or a full English in my life and I’m 52.

Absolutely not! He can’t cook anything at all.

I don’t particularly mind, as he does virtually all the housework so it’s not as if he doesn’t pull his weight.

The kids don’t appreciate it when I go away though!

Yes, we split the cooking during the week and he always makes the roasts at the weekend, he's very tidy and cleans as he cooks, I wouldn't of married someone who didn't have basic life skills.

My husband cooks more than I do, but couldn't make a sticky toffee pudding. I like baking so I'd do that bit.

I would make a bit of a fuss if i tried to make a roast and a sticky toffee pudding at the same time.

@Autther "Yes quite a few things actually, important things that I could just about manage if he wasn't here but aren't my skill set"
Name me something that needs to be done at least once a day 7 days a week that you're shit at and your dh takes responsibility for.

Why? I don't have to justify anything about my life to you, don't be weird.

@Autther "

Of course you don't. But you said that not being able to cook for your family, or cooking but leaving an enormous mess for someone else to clean up does not mean you are a shit man. I merely asked you to back up that statement. You could have done it by giving a hypothetical situation.....

Why does your can't cook=shit man theory only apply to men. Why not can't cook = shit woman?

And no I can't be arsed to make up a hypothetical situation on MN for a random stranger

A roast yes- a ramen yes - does both every week - but nothing else

Roast dinner and sticky toffee pudding, no.

Spag bol, chilli, ready made pie or similar with chips/ mash/ veg yes.

Not sure he's ever made a pudding or cake.

Cooking not his strength and I love it, but he can make a meal.

Nope, definitely not. Wouldn't have a clue

@Autther "Why does your can't cook=shit man theory only apply to men. Why not can't cook = shit woman?"

It does. It's about being shit adult. I have just never heard a man say "Oh, I have to do all the cooking because my (woman) partner can't/won't/makes a huge mess/if I didn't our children won't get fed."
