I'm a decent cook, yes. I cook better than most people I know who are my age. I learned my cooking skills from my parents, both of whom have always been into cooking.
I just love to cook, it is my favorite hobby.
The general consensus is that I am. As for learning, that was done from the age of 5 with time spent with my mother in the kitchen, a mixture of doing, observing and talking.
Yes by experience
I'm good at what I do. I like mostly pure foods cooked in a fairly plain manner. I like to season the veggies with various herbs and spices and meats I grill, bake, roast, or use a slow cooker. I do not fry at all......zero. I love fried okra and can get it at the Cracker Barrel or get the deli at the market to fry some and I go pick it up.. I don't cook in a microwave as it changes food. I cook with heat and often do whole meals in the oven.
By fifth grade I cooked dinner and had it on the table most days when my mother came in from work. So, I learned early.
Yes. I learned from my mom.
