SupremeChef

This troper. I've even told my mum, who is also a SupremeChef, that if I can find some more decent recipes to fill out the rest of the week, she'll be out of a job. She says she won't mind, though. (Hey, I didn't do cooking at primary school and in my previous years of high school for nothing, y'know!)

This troper swears up and down that his stepmom could have nothing on hand but a bucket of week-old dog scraps and come out with a three-course meal for ten people that would put anyone on the food network to shame. He has yet to see this actually happen, however.

I aspire to become one. The only way I know how is by constantly making food from scratch without a recipe.

Several people have asked my mother to adopt them after tasting her Korean home cooking.

the former violinist in my church has a chef degree and makes really good desert, especially cakes. It is another thing that makes her a YamatoNadeshiko.

This Troper had the benefit of rooming with a SupremeChef who liked to cook, all the time, even after double-shifts at a restaurant. I learned a lot, and though I'm not nearly in his league, I had the occasional victory to cook dishes that would impress even him.

This tropette's father. In our case Mom's a former LethalChef, but Dad personally busys almost every single cooking ingredient and implement at home and is really good at using them. My older sister moved out recently, yet she still comes home almost every weekend to have lunch with us and ends up taking some food to her home for Monday.

Same here.

This troper and his grandmother, although the former is a bit too lazy most of the time to demonstrate it. :P

This troper and her late father fit this, though my dad usually made the same five dishes over and over again. I've made up my own recipes for lentil soup and a triple berry crumble, along with a vegan-friendly vegetable pie and chili mac & cheese bake. I can also make you a mouthwatering pot roast, meatloaf, chicken soup, roast chicken dinner, swiss mushroom burgers, shortbread, chocolate cheesecake, sauteed brussels sprouts, and an entire Thanksgiving dinner, from the turkey to mashed potatoes to cornbread dressing and a homemade pumpkin pie (though that dirties enough dishes to run the dishwasher twice), amongst other things. I truly enjoy cooking far more than I do eating and usually when I make something I'll make enough to freeze for another meal or three. Right now I have two meals of lentil soup in the freezer along with some cornbread I made.

This Troper could very easily be one with a great taste in food, but I lack a kitchen in this college dorm. I specialize in Breakfasts. Pancakes in particular. and my Omelets with make you weep with pure joy.

This troper can cook delicious multi-course meals of very limited resources (basically what's left in the fridge at the end of month).

Tropers/TheEvilOboist is definitely one of these. For my mom's birthday a few years ago, I made a cake that consisted of alternating Angel Food and Devil's Food cake, with peanut butter/cream cheese mousse in between the layers, all of this robed in dark chocolate ganache. It was an absolute pain in the butt to assemble, but it was TO DIE FOR. Also, I've been perfecting my vegetable stir-fry lately, since that's pretty much all I eat now. That and cookies/bread.

This particular Troper is one. Well justified, because he's a '''professional chemist''', for heaven's sake!
