I dunno.  Putting myself in the dominant's shoes and realizing that you have FOUR children, I'd expect you to have as many built-in yet healthy shortcuts as possible to our domestic life in that more of your time would be available for me.  That doesn't mean TV dinners or KFC every night, but there are options for healthy living in the area of some prepared or packaged foods that would be acceptable TO ME.  Making every shred of everything from scratch would be time wasteful in my own home.

But to each his or her own.  Really, the only two it matters to is Master and you.

I'm very lucky. Neither of us are fond of green beans. He doesn't like peas so if I feel an urge for them I cook them just for me. He won't eat eggs (fried, boiled, poached, scrambled etc) but has no problem with them in food. And he really doesn't think quiche ought to be made more than once a year and it ought to be served as lunch at that!

Basically, all he really cares about dinner is that it be substantial - meat and starch- and served as close to 6:30 as possible. But since he prefers I be with him as often as possible, it isn't fair to have me accompany him to to the plumbing or electrical supply store, we get back at six, and have from scratch spaghetti and sauce ready in half an hour. I can do the from scratch cooking but it takes time that he would prefer I spend with him instead of in the kitchen.

I don't think Cooking Restrictions are that big of a deal... I  have very strict cooking restrictions.... I'm not allowed to cook ....period... but then I'm not allowed to do dishes... laundry... dusting... vaccuming... basically any cleaning... and I'm not allowed to do yard work.

We don't really have any cooking restrictions here...as its a more or less shared household chore.  However, there are times where I have to make certain meals, just because, and they're only good enough if i'm the one making them. 

I'd love to be able to cook that way, but if I did that day in and day out, I'd never leave the kitchen, because when I cook, I cook.

(For example, Hubby and roomie 1's favorite thing to make for dinner is spaghetti:  box o' pasta, jar o' sauce, loaf of bread dinner done.  Me on the other hand, and dinner becomes - ham, mashed potatoes, steamed veggies (2 kinds), home made rolls, at least 1 kind of dessert pie or crisp of some sort.  And by the time I'm done, I'm so tired of looking at it, I don't want to eat any.)

Outside of the kitchen, I think the strangest is having me make the bed.  Honestly, no one goes in our room but us; no one sees the bed but us; and we're only going to get back into it and mess it up again, so why bother?  But that's just his military brainwashing I think. :-)

This topic came up in a few of the "polls and random stupidity" threads recently, and after my post on my cooking rules, I got a few emails on the other side. Most of them thinking my Sir is absolutly absurd and asking why I would put up with it...anyway, I basically ignored the rude comments, but it did get me to thinking on some things. I cant be the only one out there who is given a rather strict set of rules to cook by, although I dont doubt Im the only one on here who follows quite so strict a guideline. Now, I understand there are people who have to cook a specific way because of health reasons, but Im more asking about people who have rules based on just personal preference. What about other "domestic duty" types things, do any of you out there have to follow some pretty absurdly strict rules on any thing else?

Ill write out again here my basic cooking rules, and given thats it actually about the ONLY direct rules in my entire relationship, its never really bothered me, but it does make some things rather stressful with 4 kids in a house. I can not use anything that comes pre processed in any way. If it comes in a box, bag, or bottle, I am not allowed to buy it without express permission from him. Now, before you go and say, "cooking from scratch doesnt sound too bad", really take a moment to think how often the average american cook reaches into a pantry for something.

ghita~


~edited to say I actually meant to post this in the "off-topic" section, but I guess it works here too....


It honestly doesn't sound restrictive to me.  Thats the way I've always cooked, but thats because I love cooking as a hobby.  It works out well for my owner since he has a bunch of food allergies, primarily from items that are pre-made or have fillers in them (like zathan gum) to preserve them for long periods of time.

C~

Edited to actually answer your question on cooking restrictions: I don't have hard and fast rules but lots of preferences on his part.  The basic one is the issue of foods that contain fillers or artifical sorts of things that he's allergic to.  He also doesn't like seafood or a lot of particular vegetables (especially greens, which tend to be a family favorite of mine).  He doesn't like soda with aspertame in it and likes poland spring carbonated mandarin orange flavored water to drink (in a pinch regular poland spring water), but doesn't drink local tap water (if we are somewhere that has great well water like Vermont then its not a problem).  He doesn't like his food piping hot, but rather somewhere around lukewarm which is always a challenge for me since I like my food piping hot.  All of these things (and others) I've just learned over time, he never presented me with a list of things.

I didn't have many cooking restrictions when I was in a live in situation. The ones that come to mind are: I could never cook Sunday breakfast, he did that.  I cook alot of ethnic food: Asian, African, Indian and he really didn't care for much of it, so I could not make those dishes for a meal. I could however make a dish for my own consumption, such as lunch to take to work. Sometimes if it appealed to him visually he would try it, if he liked it it was added to the meal list. No pea soup, which is a huge fave of mine. He only ate white bread < yuk>, but I could have my whole grain breads. I can't really think of too many, as we had similar likes and dislikes. He had a lot of requests for certain meals, but they were meals we both enjoyed.

I consider myself a pretty healthy meal planner and make most every meal from scratch, but I could not abide by the OPs rules. That is just me. Maybe I am interpretting no box, bottle or cans incorrectly, but many of the food items I use come in those packages. Examples: When I cook curries, I use coconut milk, comes in a can. I'm sure I could find some coconuts to make my own, but they aren't items that are readily available here in New England. I use rice flour and butter to make empire biscuits, both come in a container. Olive Oil is a staple, comes in a bottle.

God Bless you, Ghita ! I couldn't do it and I don't have any little feet running around the house. And to those who made rude comments or criticized you, shame on them.

cooking restrictions are common, as well as the nomenclature of your dishes:

I wouldn't say that my cooking restrictions are strict, just no veggies for him. Only exception is homemade mashed potatos. He only drinks sodas and hates almost any kind of condoments. Mostly he likes his food as plain as he can get it. I tend to cook his meal sepretly.  Btw after reading your cooking restrictions  I added a new hard limit to my list. I have two wee ones, work forty hours a week, and still do half if not more of the house hold chores.

Tonight I'm having tuna casserole consisting of canned tuna, boxed whole wheat pasta, healthy canned mushroom soup, and frozen bagged peas.  Its easy and quick and I have a whole new appreciation for what you do. *sympathetic smile*

I don't have any actual cooking restrictions; he has preferences that I follow.  I'm frequently given a meat and told to cook something with it.  He is very conscious of carbs (not a low carb guy but just conscious of them) so that's a factor.  He wants everything spicy - super spicy.  Like double the cayanne spicy...lol

i interpreted Ghita's comments as "no pre-processed foods".  obviously, some things are going to be bought in packaging, you cant grow rice just anywhere, for example (having come from rice-growing family, i know that one...). 

its not easy cooking under food restrictions, you have to adopt a different mindset.

the cooking "restrictions" i have arent from Sir, but from a very picky, spoilt-by-his-mama husband *smiles*

no "chicken on the bone", he doesnt like that.  no casseroles,  he wont eat certain vegetables, NO black eyed peas and cornbread!! ....so i have to cook my comfort foods where he cant smell them...

he claims he hates being waited on, but if i dont, he pouts....gods save us from men spoilt by italian catholic mamas!  (and he's the oldest.... *eyeroll*)

Sir has eaten my cooking a few times, and is impresed by it.  i cook good plain food, good flavors but nothing fancy.

Ghita,

I do not have any rules about cooking other than it has to be something he likes, but he is willing to try new things.  Alandra might have some since she has been cooking for him for much longer  *g*

I do have to ask, how far away are you and can I come for dinner???

I dont know whether or not this counts...
I do not eat ground beef. I eat other beef without a problem, just nothing ground. If Angel wishes to cook anything with ground meat, he has to but ground turkey or chicken. I also do not eat pork.
For him, I avoid peanuts he is VIOLENTLY allergic.
And any leftovers that are more than 2 day old are my domain alone, he will not touch them. Even if they are frozen, he wont eat them more than 2 days out. Therefore, we watch portions pretty cose, unless its somehting I dont mind eatting for a while.

Oh, I'm not that bad, and don't mind eating steak cooked his way though it took some getting used to. The first time I was on edge for a bit waiting to get sick..it didn't happen.  Its not really cooked at all.  Just sort of browned on the outside, like you do before you actually cook something.  His way of doing mushrooms (they go with the steak) is really cool mostly because he uses a cast iron skillet and I've alway had a thing for cast iron.  Cast iron is one of those kitchen mysteries I've never conquered myself but he's got a specific way to clean it and knows alot about it.  I like following him around learning how to do stuff.

I can't eat rare steak. My stomach gets very mad at me when I do. Very mad.
