I come from a Irish French background and absolutley love cooking. I am not a baker (I don't eat much dessert) but I love to make fresh bread in the winter. I hate it when people don't season food at all or douse it in a sauce - like marinating in a store bought BBQ sauce. The only vegetable I won't eat is peas. I got sick when I was a kid twice on them. Once on my grandmothers farm when we were on the back of the wagon of fresh peas I ate too many and got (I thought deathly) sick and another time when my mother made pea soup. Mom was a great cook, made everything from scratch, but this time she left a steel wool scrubber in the bottom of her soup pot and when my sister saw it we started to laugh. There were 8 of us (all under 11) and she made us eat the soup - saying it won't kill you just take it out. I got sick to my stomach and never ate peas again.
Fresh vegetables, pork, beef, dumplings (or sliders) fish. I make fantastic ribs especially on the BBQ and great potato salad. My daughter dies over my spaghitti sauce with meat. My favorite restaurants are HY'S Steak House and Tunnel BBQ in Windsor, Ont.
