My mother cooked but was lousy at it. When she was growing up food was near and dear, much of it home grown. Burning or otherwise screwing up even one pan of food was a calamity, not that they would have gone hungry, but nothing should be wasted, so my grandmother wouldn't let anybody touch the food.
My mother ended up boiling damn near everything. I was 30 before I knew different veggies had different flavors.
Mom was hell on cleaning, though, lots of training in that department.
