Specially young boys if you involve them they will be invested in the entire process! This is great advise!
So grateful to my mom for doing this with me
My son's a little young to help in the kitchen, but my wife can relax and play with him while my mom and I cook =)
Maybe I didn't help cook as much but was my job to clean after pretty much every dinner. Always thanked my Mum for the dinner nightly (regardless of my taste preferences). Pretty much set the table for dinners all regular night and cleaned up.
Larger dinners with company she let me stop cleaning after awhile but these days I'd gladly clean till the end, she made the best dinners.
My son cooks
Carving up the turkey is a manly job, just keep those knives sharp
Sharpness doesn’t matter: more power! Break out the electric carving knife
Clarkson!
my daughter wants to be a chef when she grows up, so i tend to involve her more in cooking and food prep. i do also teach my son how to make food and how to care for himself, obviously, but he doesn't have an interest in anything more advanced than that. my girl though, she's going to have at least one michelin star or i'll eat my hat.
Good eats taught me more about cooking than any family member ever did
It's the only cooking show I have ever watched that actually taught the why so I could experiment on my own.
If you're looking for tips.
My wife has a bone cyst and her wrist is effectively unusable. Our teenage son volunteered to help me since we're one cook down in the kitchen this year.
Because boys don't turn into chefs, huh.
Yep. One of the reasons women do all the housework, is because men where literally not taught how to. It may sound weird that someone can fix a car, paint a fence, but struggles with house chores.
It's due to literally never learning to.
No one taught me how to fix a car or paint a fence, yet I can do both. So can countless others with no such training across literally the entire spectrum of human capability.
People who claim they don't do housework because they 'were never taught how' are just feigning incompetence. I bet the vacuum becomes much less mystifying if I tie a $1000 prize to its successful operation, for example.
Thanksgiving is for the kids to stay out of the kitchen. I teach cooking on other day. Cleanup is a different story. If you got hand you clean or youll catch hands.
