Me and the wife alternate cooking. When I cook a meal it takes an hour at max.When she cooks a meal? It's three hours minimum for anything more advanced than just chicken in an air fryer.I watched her cook and can't multi-task. At all. It's fucking bizarre. She tried a few times but becomes so hyper focused on a single task that the other tasks go to shit each time.For example, let's compare making a pot of chicken soup.>MePut chicken in a pot with stock and start it cooking.Put flour and egg in the stand mixer on low to make pasta doughCut up celery, carrots, and green onion for soupCheck dough. Adjust if needed. If not, let it run for five minutes.Remove dough to rest.Remove chicken, place veggies in stock except green onionsRoll pasta and make noodlesAdd noodles to stockDebone and cut up chickenAdd to stockRemove from heatAdd green onions Start to finish? 40 minutes>WifeCook chicken completelyMake noodles completely in separate pot of waterCut up vegetables and put in separate pot to boilRemove vegetablesDebone chickenStart another pot containing chicken stock (first time using stock)Add the cut up chicken, veggies, and pre cooked noodles to stock right when it starts to boil and remove from heatTakes three god damn hours and has much less flavor.She refuses to cook any other way because she will make a mistake or start a fire. It's fucking maddening.

That's just women.Mine uses about twice as many pieces of cookware than me and always makes a huge mess she afterwards has to clean up.And it's not like she's cooking anything more complicated than me.
has she ever worked at a restaurant or fast food place?A lot of public health codes demand that you cannot handle meat and vegetables in the same place at the same time, so people get scared to do it at home, or they just never learn how.
>>21666041To be fair you both sound kinda of bad at cooking. Why did you both make the same thing anyway? Do you do that autistic boomer thing where you have a weekly menu of the same items?
>>21666041have you tried cookmaxing in front of her, and explaining everything you are doing julia child style while she sits on the naughty chair and takes notes?
>>21666041
>>21666446I have one cutting board.I wash itcut vegetablescut meatwash itnever get food poisoning.
My wife uses the huge fucking salad spinner every single day to wash vegetables, no matter how many there are, and then doesn't even spin them. If it's like 2 carrots they are going in the spinner, and then it gets left on the side and dried on stuck bits of vegetables in the basket gaps. It's infuriating.
>>21666041Why would you marry a woman that can't cook? You must have known this about her prior to getting engaged and then married, so blame yourself. You need to accept that people are imperfect and stop bestowing perfection onto others. You're probably just coping for feeling deficient in some other way. And who gives a fuck if she takes forever, go do something to better yourself during that time. The best meal is the one you don't have to make, so be grateful you have someone willing to do something she obviously sucks at.
>>21667591Throw it out or break it so she can’t use it anymore.
Does her food taste good?If so, maybe just shut the fuck up and let her cook how she wants you fucking retardWhat else is she going to do with that time? Scroll tiktok some more? Fucking idiot retard
>>21666041Since you're apparently such an expert, have you considered helping your wife to become a better cook instead of running off like a child to bitch about her on 4chan?
>>21666041weaponized incompetenceshe's lazysimple as
>>21667840You don't need to help an adult watch youtube videos. This isn't the 1800s
>>21667830Her food is good. Mine is viewed as better by both of us. She cooks more than I do because I work and she is a home maker. So I cook dinner three nights a week on average. She makes lunch every day and breakfast is a toss up.>>21667840I've tried. She can not multi-task properly. She has to do just one thing at a time because if she does multi-task she doesn't just focus on cooking and OCD shit kicks in.>Gonna fry an egg and make grits>Start the oil for the egg>Start the grits>Starts sweeping the kitchen while both are warming up>Since I am sweeping might as well vacuum the living room>Should clean the bathroom while I'm at it>Why is the smoke alarm going offThat is what happens. She has a problem and refuses to get it fixed and just does shit one thing at a time so she won't fuck up.
>>21667853have you considered that your wife is retarded and can't be helpedjust give her a hug and tell her everything is gonna be okay
>>21666041Have cook books. Mark specific recipes so she follows instructions.
>>21667853Mmm, nothing like sweeping the floor while cooking so the dust gets in the food, absolutely delicious.
>>21667963If dust is spraying up to counter level, you may be sweeping too hard.
>>21667607>The best meal is the one you don't have to makeThe best sex is the one you're not having.
>>21667853>>21667853Ocd...She's broken in a way that cannot be fixed. Try exact repetitive motion meals OCD friendly like stuffed shells, Dumplings, gnocchi, perogies, turnovers, baklava, and egg rolls basically anything you cook a filling for then assemble. Make em in large enough batches that they can be frozen then cooked another day when her disability interferes with the time available to cook a meal. Also thin of it as a retard level disability, its going to cripple your relationship if you don't think of it as a form of retardation when you would expect normal action but get the behavioral equivalent of tard noise.
>>21668542Also know that she should never become a mother. The amount of suffering you will Indure in your own home to accommodate her fragile mind in the face of chaos. Just don't.
>>21666045You know this board probably does have one of the highest marriage rates.
>>21666446This. A lot of people still cook pork to 165 instead of 145. There's a lot of people out there operating on obsolete cooking knowledge. Also using the same cutting board for veggies and chicken is no big deal if its something thats going to end up in the same pot and be braised or baked.
>>21666041That’s nice dear
>>21666041No one cares about your whore wife normalfaggot. I hope she gets raped.
>oh don’t worry anon I’ll do the cooking>well yeah I also clean up while I’m cooking!>10 different measuring cups caked with dried on shit, 6 mixing bowls, dried on shit stuck to cutting board, dustpan full of crumbs on the floor, half of the cheese that was supposed to be a topping burnt to the side of the pan, 4 different sauce pans only half soaking in sink, nasty cold water left in sink
>>21666532He was explaining how they would cook the same thing you dumb faggot
yep women are retarded and love to do things like drain away all the fat from their pot and then add butter to replace the fat they got rid of. They also love to make things that take 9000 ingredients and get every kitchen appliance and surface dirty. But they are supposed to be staying home and have all day to cook and clean in their retarded ways. Its our fault for not understanding that they are closer to children than adult men.
>>21666041Most women are like that. Appreciate the effort your wife is putting and encourage her, don't be a thorn in her shoe. We forget what people said to us but we don't forget how they made us feel.
>>21668924So, baseless speculation. Sounds kinda irrationally feminine of him
>>21666041Yeah my wife tears the entire fucking kitchen apart to make the simplest meal.
>>21666052Having someone brow beat the shit out of me while I do any related ck task for them let alone everything else I do makes me want to stab them. If you can't find a way to comfortably encourage this then why bring it up? Are you going to starve to death in those 2 extra hours? If it's about her free time does it matter as long as she's happy with the time she spends?
>>21670113Because she's going to teach the children to be retarded too.If you rely on retards, expect to be annoyed. If she doesn't care about her wasted life and flavor efforts, then she WANTS to be retarded. If you see no problem with this, I. Sure you see no problem with every woman spring this, and then you'd be all butthurt upset and surprised when the 19th gets repealed because retards don't give a shit but are helpless when it comes to problems that require journeyman trade skills.
>>2166604115 quatloos that OP is divorced in the next 2 years.
>>21668263
>>21666041I do all the cooking, and very little cleaning. The wife does very little cooking and most of the cleaning. I do all the house maintenance. we both do yard work. The wife and I figured out what each of us is good at, and neither expects the other to do that thing. Though we will fill in when it is required.My wife likes to bake stuff and is really good at it, but so am I. I just don't do it because of the calories in cookies, cakes, and whatever. she mostly bakes to give stuff away. I provide taste testing because she has a terrible sense of smell. The other day I rescued a cookie recipe she got off the internet that was not working out right. The recipe had not enough flour as written.your marriage is not going to last with your attitude. do things your way and if your wife won't or can't change just accept it and go on with your life. let her do things the way they work for her.Sometimes my wife will follow my suggestions and sometimes she won't. she can deal with the consequences.
