I think I was around 7th grade...so I was alot older than you. But my Mom used to let my sister and I look through cookbooks and when we found a recipe that we had all the ingredients for.....she let us try cooking it. BUT, the one rule was she didn't clean the kitchen...we did. I think my first memorable thing was a loaf of Raisin Bread. It was delicious. OH....I almost forgot....does an Easy Bake Oven count. I would have been much younger then.

i also prolly made a pbj sandwich when i was like 4 :)
i started making grilled cheese when i was about 10 or 11
(yum)!
The first meal I had to make for myself was in the first year at high school.
We had military training, and there was an overnight execise and we were issued with Rat Pack,
It was a can of stew which I curried, and rice. All I can recall was that I cooked the rice first, so that it was soft.
Others added the rice to the stew and ended up with under cooked rice.
I guess helping Mum in the kitchen paid off.
Remember this was in the days when women did the cooking, not men or boys.
I watched mom in the kitchen, helped her at 5, and had compiled my first "cookbook" (scrapbook of recipes cut out of magazines) at age 8.
Spaghetti sauce was the first thing I helped make. Also, salad dressing, and any kind of sandwich.
I cook wayyyy too much now, and I am 41.
I baked with my mom when I was a kid - tarts and pastries.
But my very first dish I made by myself was when I was 15 and I make Chicken Curry and Roti - after my mom convinced me that if I never learned how to cook traditional Indian food I wouldn't land a decent husband. The ploy worked and I did a pretty good job!
Turned out that after being dragged kicking and screaming into the culinary world, I became a chef!
8
hot dog
eggs
7/8 My first dishes was cereal, over the months it grew to microwaving stuff and now I'm cooking on the stove.
Four.
I wanted a milkshake, but couldn't find milk.
Ah, well, an orange julius would be okay.
I put orange juice in the blender.
No matter how high I turned the machine, it wouldn't make foam.
An orange julius needs to be frothy!
Where do I get foam?
Ah, yes.
Sadly, even half a tube of toothpaste didn't create the expected foam.
My culinary endeavors improved drastically once I understood a bit of background. Fortunately, I was home-schooled, so I didn't have to wait until high school to learn chemistry. Public school teachers have it hard enough without students who need chemistry to figure out that OJ and toothpaste are a bad mix.
I was twelve and made a cornflour mould at cookery class in school.
My mum taught me and my sisters to cook, the first thing we cooked was a Sunday roast, and i was 10.
I was ten....I cooked full course meals by that time.
Usually grilled steak in a pan, fried potatoes, corn and Ranch style beans. Looking back I have to laugh because I remember making this same meal for me, sisters and my brother for two weeks in a row beause I didn't know how to cook anything else.
4 i love to cook
i am great at making omelets,pasta,chicken,cake,etc/
I started making peanut butter cookies with my mom when I was about 4. I'd help roll them into balls & use a fork to push them down like #sigh on top. Then I'd make fudge as I got older & Lots of different cookies. I also helped my mom can things like tomatoes , tomato juice, green beans, bread & butter pickles, and also freeze alot of veges too. As far as my very first dish gees, I really don't remember ! I've been cooking for around 30 yrs. so hard to say!! When I was first married my husband like Tacos & different Mexican dishes...still does! I've been making Thanksgiving & Christmas & all the holidays in between for at least 25 yrs. I keep trying to get someone to take over.....yeah right. I guess by now I have it down to a fine art!.... at least that's what everyone thinks!!!
I can't remember but I know I was young. I mostly made things like cookies with my mom, french toast, grilled cheese sandwhiches. On my own I'd make bowl of cereal(and the occasional huge mess), hotdoggs, PB&J, & cheese sandwhiches. Ohh and finally bagels with cream cheese ...YUM!
Food is important in our culture. We almost get born with the dna of being able to cook at a very early age.I am a example of that.
I don't remember exactly how old I was, but I remember being in the kitchen and helping , well......for as long as I can remember.
My Mom cooked everything(we rarely went out to eat) and we had a huge garden so I cooked everything from cookies and cakes (devil's food cake from the Betty Crocker cookbook) to making homemade tomato sauce and canning green beans and my favorite.....liver and onions. Yes, I loved liver and onions, and my Mom was the one that taught me how to make it.
Part of my job now is to cook and I love it. I cook for a family and I include the kids( who are no longer little) in my cooking to carry on the tradition. Cooking is part math homework, part science project and part creative process. Each of these kids now have their own "signature" dish that they learned by cooking with me.
I think if more kids were cooking in the kitchen with their parents, we would have healthier children. I include them in the whole process....planning, shopping, cleaning/prep, cooking, and the concept of "presentation is everything".
I don't think I'll ever NOT cook....I love it and I love to share my love of good, healthy, natural food.
made cookies around 5 yearsold.!!!!!!lol!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't really remember starting, but I know I was making spaghetti bol without help when I was 8, so I must have started earlier than that. I also made omelettes and french toast. I remember Mum helping me make scones too. I think I did a hostess badge in Brownies :)
My mom started me cooking when I was about 5 years old. I was baking cookies, but I also remember her teaching me how to make our spaghetti sauce and her famous gravy, which I am now famous for. I new how to cook full meals by the time I was 9.
4. and it was pancakes .( a messy job!)
I started to cook when I was around 10 years old. My first dish was chicken stir fry and I almost burned the kitchen making it! Turns out, I love cooking and I'm actually good at it now!
I can't remember how old I was, but I taught my kids from about 3 - we made Rice Crispie Cakes, now my son can make a wonderful Chocolate Sponge cake that rises out of the oven and he is only 7
