I know this is an odd request considering everything that has been happening. But do you think that anyone can help me cook?

...Just to see if it tastes good or not.

[Because local 13 year old boy needs help.]

there's this cooking club thing
if you show up when I'm there, I can at least make sure you don't set the place on fire

[ Translation: sure, he can help, but will never admit it. ]

[whatsamada]

I have heard but I didn't want to trouble Kotone-san more than I already have. She already taught me how to sew too...

[rebellions]

she really can do anything huh
so what can you cook?
like on the scale from "can't boil water to brew tea" to "cuts puffer fish with eyes closed"
and what are you hoping to learn?

[whatsamada]

Uh...

I can cook scrambled eggs and some ham? But honestly? Just anything at this point. What are meals that are good enough for a 13 year old to make?

[murderingjustice]

why won't you ask Kotone for help?

[whatsamada]

She already helped me to learn how to sew and I don't want to bother her again.

May I ask what it is you're trying to make?

I don't know much about cooking myself, but if all you're after is a taste tester I could help with that.

WHAT THE FUCK IS A 13 YEAR OLD DOING HERE???

Anyway, the horrific realization that literal kids get dragged in here too aside... ]

unless you're a complete moron that sticks their hands into an open fire?
pretty much anything
something like spaghetti and meatballs could be a start?

[whatsamada]

To be honest?

I just want to see if I can cook a meal for someone and see it will taste any good. I never did anything like this before so I'm willing to try anything.

[whatsamada]

Anything.

I just know that I can make scrambled eggs but I don't think that counts as a meal. So I would need something else to go along with it.

[whatsamada]

[DON'T ASK HIM WHY HE IS HERE, HE JUST IS!!]

I think I can do that? Unless you're asking me to make the meatballs by hand, then I'm not really sure.

Isn't it just pork and some spices together?

[ticket218]

[ Oh he knows the anxiety of trying new things all too well. ]

If you don't have anything particular in mind, local grocers could have suggestions for easy meals to make with what they have in stock?

[whatsamada]

That's true too. I just hope that they'll give honest answers and help me out though.

[rebellions]

that is the implication, yeah
reheating frozen shit doesn't exactly count as cooking in my book


... on a very basic level
I'd recommend adding milk, eggs and breadcrumbs to help keep it together and give it better texture
mix ground pork with beef if you're feeling fancy

[ticket218]

I could come with you if you'd like? I've got a good eye for people only trying to sell something.

cooking is a lot like science, kid! just put this w/ that and KABAM! meal.
mix stuff up and see what u get. thats what i do.

[whatsamada]

That sounds a lot easier than I thought it would be.

...But I never knew that breadcrumbs were in meatballs before. I wonder what else goes into food that I'm not aware of.

[whatsamada]

But the problem is will it taste good?

Especially when I have to cook for others too.

[whatsamada]

That would be great if you can.

I don't really know a thing about how you can tell if food is good or not.

[ticket218]

That should be easy enough to tell once it's made, right? Though now that I think of it, maybe buying extra just in case something goes wrong might be a good idea...

But yes, of course. Where would you like to meet?

[opheliac]

depends what ur making! i only know how to make some seafood stuff.

[murderingjustice]

I'm certain that she wouldn't mind. she loves to help others.

[breakin_ur_lore]

I can help! What kinda cooking are you thinking about?

[whatsamada]

Someone suggested meatballs and another said seafood.

Anything else outside of that?
