Mostly I do the cooking because I love it, I am very fast doing it, I am very good at it and I like us to have healthy food in the house. He does some specific dishes that I don’t feel like doing. I made the rule of whoever does the cooking, also cleans up. It is strange at first glance, but I clean while I cook, so I don’t have to clean a bunch of stuff at the end. And he is a messy cook. So I don’t get in the kitchen while he cooks, otherwise I would get mad with the lack of efficiency.

And he loves my food much more than I do. It is a pleasure to see him enjoy what I cook.

I cook about 1/3 of the time my wife about a 1/3 of the time and both of us together about 1/3 of the time. We are both very good cooks but have different strengths.

I’m better when I plan ahead equilibrium brines, sousvide, smoking, Indian currie etc. She can look at what’s in the fridge and whip up something good at short notice.

Together is usually each of us working on a different dish or me doing Mise en place for her.

The same person who did the cooking when I did live alone: not me.

Generally, we each cook for ourselves unless someone is sick or it’s an event or something, then I do the cooking.

I cook, I don’t mind it. Wife doesn’t like to. She does other things I prefer not to. A balance if you will.

Mostly my mother and I. It’s almost certain my dad will complain about cooking taking more than 5 minutes and only sometimes helps ( only if my mom gets him to do it ). And my brother sometimes does it and sometimes helps, but more often than not I don’t need his help.

I personally don’t mind it since I don’t hate doing it. And it’s a pretty good life skill to have in general. None of us are professional chefs, but I imagine my mom and I could definitely outcook the average family in America anymore. Cooking is a dying art because of a combination of lack of convenience, laziness, grocery prices going up, and impatience, I swear.

She’s not a morning person, so I cook breakfast and do all the baking.

She used to be a professional chef, so she cooks dinner most nights.

The kids each have one or two dishes they can prepare for lunch to feed each other.

The cats are useless layabouts and don’t even bring us hunting trophies anymore.

I work from home, and unless things are going a little crazy I do most of the cooking. Occasionally my wife will cover a lunch or breakfast or maybe even a dinner if things are crazy but it’s probably one out of 10 times max.

She’s pretty big into pre-packaged or just making a sandwich, I’ll break out the baking soda flour and sugar and make pancakes, or if I think about it a couple hours early I’ll make pizza dough or something I don’t usually plan much past that. If I am using something pre-packaged I’ll usually go out of my way to do something interesting with it. Make a buffalo sauce toss the nuggets in it throw them over a bag salad.

The one that gets home first.

I’m (m) gluten free and my wife is vegetarian so we often just cook for ourselves. When both of us eat one thing, I cook probably 70% of the time. I’m the better cook.

Although we do have specific roles. I make all of the popcorn she makes all of the smoothies.

Usually wife during the week, me on the weekend. Changes sometimes due to circumstances obviously.

Depends on the night. When it is me I do some simple sautéed vegetables, a rice, and protein (tofu or meat). Sometimes I branch out and do pasta or casseroles.

My wife and I take turns cooking. We typically plan everything out at the start of the week so can shift to one of us doing multiple nights in a row if need be. We started having whoever doesn’t cook doing the cleaning, but my wife refuses to do basic cleanup as she goes so now whoever cooks also cleans up.

I cook for myself usually. Husband is a picky eater and is willing to fend for himself (he generally does meal prep with the handful of things he likes for the week and heats stuff up.) If I am cooking something he does like I’ll cook for us both.

I do the cooking. It’s not like my wife is incapable, she’s just the breadwinner and it’s more fair for me to do most of the house stuff.
