to go along with "domestically inclined," do you cook for your D/M? what are some of your favorite recipes and/or techniques? do you cook what your D/M asks for or do you choose the menu? do you do the shopping and other such food-related things?

Lol, no current D/M but I'll join in anyway because it's such a good question, thank you.

I did all the menu planning, shopping and most of the cooking. Though I always asked if he wanted anything on the menus that month.

Easy favs of his?

Avacados stuffed with shrimp or crab salad. You can either make your usual salad or purchase some from the deli. Then scoop out most of the meat from a halved avacado. Chop the avacodo into cubes then stir it into the salad and put it back in the shells. Tp make an elegant presentation top by sprinling with either OldBay or parsly and a few whole shrimp.

Homemade bread of any sort of course.

Potroast is always a hit with men.

Put a chuck roast in a crockpot, add small peeled potatoes, carrots, onions, celery stalks, a tblsp each of flour, Brown and Serve and Worchestershire, 4 beef boullin cubes and cook on high for about 8 hours. Remove the celery and serve with bread or rolls. Simple yet everybody loves it.

I've always tended to cook for lovers, regardless of the dynamic of the relationship. This is partly because I like doing things for people I adore, and partly because I seem to wind up dating a lot of very spoiled and fairly driven women who never had the time or inclination to learn to cook for themselves.

I'm a vegetarian so vegetarian cuisine is sort of my specialty. I really enjoy making Indian food more than anything else, but I'm always happy to cook to my partner's taste.

Edited to boast that I also make an extraordinarily scrumptious avocado and mango pancake.

i'm a very good cook, but i do very little of it. Master rules the kitchen. i'm in charge of homemade desserts. all from scratch. fancy bday cakes, brownies , all kinds of cookies, muffins, cupcakes,banana bread, bread pudding and my famous NY style cheesecake. also caramel corn, homemade Frosties and pineapple pie. like everything else practice , practice , practice. know your appliances, own the best you can afford but dont go overboard. most times i use a wooden spoon for mixing. i use non stick spray a lot. there's nothing i hate more than the perfect cake sticking to the baking pan. Master does all the shopping . sometimes i tag along but mostly i just write what i need on a blackboard He has for that purpose.

I can cook pasta a 100 different ways and my girlfriends loves to eat so I cook and she eats, It is also nice to watch someone enjoy your meal. For a domme, I would make a domme good one and she would be spoiled rotten.

I do all the cooking. I'm responsible for providing three meals a day for Alpha, even when he goes to work. Sometimes he makes breakfast (he enjoys making eggs and pancakes) but usually it's all me.

As I posted in the other thread, we eat a whole food, in-season diet (with a few cheats now and then, we're not perfect). This year we'll br transitioning to only locally grown products, including our eggs, butter, milk and meat. We eat somewhere between Weston Price and Primal, basing our meals on meat, animal fat, and fermented or cultured foods. I need some practice with the fermenting and culturing end, so we're changing completely over and taking the "sink or swim" approach. I already make my own yogurt, kefir, and cultured buttermilk. I'll be adding pickled and fermented vegetables, kombucha, butter, and cheese to the list of foods I'll be producing in my own kitchen.

I have tons of recipes, a few of which are posted on my blog.

now i want to move in with favesclava and sample some of her fantastic-sounding desserts. ^_^

OldHen -- no worries; no D/M here either, but i still love chatting about cooking. ^_^ when i moved and had to wait to turn on my gas (gas stove in my new place), i learned all sorts of fancy cooking techniques for my little toaster oven. hahaha -- oh and my crock pot. absolutely love crock pots.
in my last relationship, M liked to cook so he would often cook for me; we had very similar tastes. i'm a veggie and he was a meat-eater, but we made things together and made our own versions.

i'm trying to get used to my gas stove -- from the age when i was old enough to cook, i've always dealt with electric, and gas is a bit befuddling at times.

I do the cooking, shopping etc keeping in mind his preference. He's pretty easy going thankfully, no peas, no breakfast at dinner time, ice creams should have chocolate not fruit in them.

I do all the cooking and shopping.

When I first started cooking for my husband I went off of what he usually ordered when we went out. It was all about red meat and very little veggies or fish back then. I tend to eat on the vegetable side of things so it was a little difficult at first. At some point along the way he got it in his head get healthy. So the cooking changed. It switched to red meat maybe 2 or 3 times a week.

I try to prepare a meals list a couple of weeks in advance so I know what to have on hand for the meals. Some typical meals are baked salmon, garlic chicken, stuffed chicken breasts, meat and cheese ravioli cassorole, stir fry shrimp and vegatables, meatloaf, philly style steak sandwiches, BLT's, homemade pizza, shrimp fried rice and fried wontons, chili, grilled cheese sandwiches and chicken and beef tacos or burritos.

Also I try to plan ahead with leftovers. For example, if I make the garlic chicken I make enough to have chicken tacos the next night or I will use the white rice that is left over from one meal to make the shrimp fried rice for the next.

I do all the cooking, though I don't really like cooking all that much.

I love baking though, and make all bread, english muffins, desserts, bagels and so on at home.

I'm still looking for a good donut recipe though. I've tried about 5 different ones now and I can't find any that really suit my taste (though my husband likes all of them and donuts around here usually don't even get the time to cool enough so I can glaze them).

Does anybody else like baking and have a favorite donut recipe?

No current Domly one, but I consider cooking to be one of my better skills so I do like to use it to please them. I have done shopping in the past, but normally I cook whatever is lying around or whatever they request... Funnily enough though, I have yet to find a truly picky one (though my first Dom had extensive allergies). I usually have to prod at them to find out what they like. I like to do breads and pastas, spicy foods. I have a habit of trying out new things to impress them...which doesn't always work out.

Homemade breads and turnovers are probably my favorites to make since I can make them to whatever taste someone has.

I love to cook and did/do all the shopping. After the first supermarket birthday cake at work I assigned myself the role of birthday cake baker. My ex Dom didn't like baked goods so I was a frustrated baker after 3 years with him and for the first 3 months at this job I baked something for Mondays.

My ex Dom didn't really like my cooking style, which was far more elaborate than his 5 minute meals. We ended up with him cooking during the week and me on weekends. If I don't have a sink full of dishes, the recipe was boring.

I was "under consideration" for a while recently and cooked for him, different ethnicities - Italian, Chinese, Indian, Thai, Thanksgiving. He loved my cooking. The only request he made was Italian, other than that it was chef's choice.

My ex husband was more of a bedroom Top than a Dom. I liked to say he ate what I put in front of him, heeheehee. He used to call me Hurricane K because of the way the kitchen would look (I've worked in restaurants since then and am better at cleaning as I go.)

I've volunteered in kitchens at yoga communities, mostly assisting, but occasionally primarily responsible for breakfast or lunch. From 2001-2004 I had a series of male friends who were good to great cooks or chefs and learned a lot from them.

I currently see someone occasionally who cooks me a gourmet meal and then gives me a delicious beating (after we've digested during a movie.) Hmm...I think it's time to see him again.

I've heard great things about eating local/fermented foods - noticed any differences in your health?

I absolutely have, and with each improvement I make I notice that I have more energy, and that my body holds muscle better and has less fat on it. Even my skin has gotten nicer. Alpha was eating nothing but canned tuna and PB&J before I got here, and not nearly enough of either. Since I took over cooking he has lost about 20 pounds, has a ton more energy, has built a lot of muscle, and his hair and nails are growing faster.

I recently read it, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to eat better and improve their health.

Master likes to cook so he usually does most of it when we're together but there have been times when we've cooked together or I've cooked for him. There's no rhyme or reason for us, it's just whoever he decides wants to cook.

What's Brown and Serve?

I do something similar. I often add in parsnips, and usually use unpeeled red potatoes (cut into smaller chunks if I use the big ones). I skip the flour, B&S, Worchestershire, and boullion. Instead I use thyme, rosemary, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and a little ginger, then douse the whole thing in homemade beef stock. The roast is sliced, salted, peppered very well, and set on top of the veggies in the pot. I don't remove the celery before serving it.

Every now and then I substitute french onion soup for the stock, but I generally don't like cooking with canned soups because of all the artificial ingredients and the sodium content.

Yes. Men don't belong in the kitchen.

I buy it, I cook it and he will eat the slop I give him cuz men can't make such decisions.
