    I'm no chef but I like to cook quite a lot and thought that it would be nice if there are other people who are interested to have a club where we talk about cooking in general.

    We could share what we've done(successes and failures both), talk about different recipes or different methods of cooking, or even give tips if someone is interested in starting.
     
    How much did you cook them?
    Did you boil the water first and then throw the pasta in it or all together?

    Pasta really shouldn't cook more than 12-13 minutes, it breaks down and becomes all slimy after that.
     
    That's weird then, the salt shouldn't really influence things, on the opposite, some salt is good.

    Maybe it was the kind of pasta?

    And there's no reason to feel ashamed! I burned or ruined way too many things (still ate it )because I got distracted a second, it's part of the learning experience.
     
    I would like to join this club too! I'm not much of a cook but I've proven myself to be quite the baker! :D I love the chemistry of cooking and I love experimenting with new recipes.
     
    i actually love the idea of this club :D i've tried making cooking/recipe topics happen in OT but they rarely get any replies. count me in!! i love cooking
     
    Happy to see that people are interested!! I will update the first post later to keep track of "members" and I've been thinking about some topics to discuss or even "challenges" to hold (stuff like "cook a meal with X ingredient and report your result") to inspire people.
     
    This challenge idea sounds really interesting! One of my favorite aspects of cooking is experimenting, this could be fun to do
     
    I haven't had much time this month but I wanted to leave a little conversation starter for now:

    Did you ever just throw something together and it ended up tasting way better than expected? What was it?

    The first "challenge" (I keep calling them that but it's not like there's really a competition) is going to be posted in October!

    Looking forward to the challenge!

    as for the convo topic: Yes I once had spaghetti and then threw some fried snacks along the way since I had no proper meat in the fridge (it was like the last day I'd be home alone and I could not be arsed to run to the store. I also added some whiskey sauce since whiskey sauce makes everything better surprisingly enough, it's my big secret.

    I ended up emptying the entire bottle on accident though so it was more like I had whiskey sauce with food than food with sauce. Ended up really well together unlike what I expected it to be.

    Then there are also times where at the last day of our vacation in France, we just threw every single leftover food together to make an abomination... that is a whole different story

    Are you still running this club?

    Cooking is a hobby of mine in general and I would love to hear more about culinary experiences!
