Maggie Cheung once said that at her age, she likes a man who can cook well. Novelist Zhang Xiaoxian agrees with this and also sighs that "embracing a man who loves to cook is getting a real long-term meal ticket."womanThe requirements for choosing a spouse vary, but they always focus on one thing: knowing how to love yourself. Compared with having a handsome and upright appearance or rich material conditions, more people would rather choose a "cooking man" who is sincere and willing to cook for you. The reason is simple, "When he uses all kinds of tenderness and a domineering attitude to serve his belovedwomanCookingwomanJust sit and wait for the food." This is definitely the sweetest and most true portrayal of love.

　　The new standard of a good man

It is said that the most popular type of people nowadays are not otakus, but "cooking men". As the name suggests, they refer to happy men who are willing to take on the responsibility of cooking and replace the "cooking woman" to become the "cook" of the family. This phenomenon is particularly evident after the outbreak of the global financial crisis. In Japan, these "cooking men" are called "bento men". Due to the rapid rise of the "bento men", cookbooks and other cooking books aimed at attracting male readers are hot sellers.

On the domestic Internet, many blogs named "Happy Cooking Man" have emerged. They tirelessly display daily recipes with pictures and texts, attracting a high click-through rate. Some netizens even became famous and became a new generation of Internet celebrities. Some scholars also believe that this is a further extension of the trend of neutralization.

A recent survey found that more and more women don't want to cook. Among them, 65.8% agree that "men should cook after marriage", and only 16.7% think that "cooking is a necessary condition for a good wife". You may say that women have become lazy wives. In fact, they want to see how attentive a person is in daily life from cooking, because the quality of cooking actually requires attention to many details in addition to proficiency. And this good habit of paying attention to details is generally implemented in other aspects of daily life. When taking care of women, the "craftsmanship" is naturally not bad. Therefore, the simple question of "Can you cook?" has become the primary criterion for women to examine whether you are a good man. #p#Subtitle#e#

Although Fangfang cried out "I'm on a pirate ship", she still felt sweet in her heart. She summed up the three killer skills of the men who cook after 80s: 1. Although they have no money, they are considerate. Knowing that the fundamental reason why girls hate oil smoke is that they are afraid of becoming yellow-faced women, they would rather spend time on skin care, and often say "I like you to dress up beautifully and go shopping with me". 2. The cooking skills may not be the best, but they are diligent in learning, like to change the recipes, and always have a sense of freshness. 3. Men who like to cook generally like to clean. #p#Subtitle#e#

Xiaoji interviewed a career-oriented "cooker" KENNY who is over 30 years old. His father used to be a chef and taught him that he should take the attitude of "knowing how to choose, know how to eat and know how to cook" for food. He believes that cooking is a wonderful process, and participating in it can also relieve work pressure. "When I cut ginger, I will never think about how many points the stock has fallen today, but I will focus on what effect these ginger slices will have on the sea bass." Although he does not have the habit of showing his recipes online, he will gather friends for a tasting meeting every week. He used to study abroad, so his dishes are a combination of Chinese and Western. Although the taste is not professional-level, it is full of novelty and often makes some unique dishes. KENNY has a habit of going to Hong Kong to buy cooking ingredients on the first weekend of every month. He once saw a columnist introduce a kind of fragrant rice produced in Japan, so he ran to a designated store to buy it, but the other party said that he had to make a reservation, so he had to leave his phone number and wait for a month before going to get the 500 grams of Japanese rice worth 200 Hong Kong dollars. By the way, he also bought some ingredients such as black glutinous rice produced in Taiwan, and finally mixed them together to cook a big pot of rice. Including the round trip fares, the cost of this pot of rice was more than 1,000 yuan. At the dinner party that weekend, everyone was only focused on chewing this pot of "sincere" rice and forgot the taste of the Jiangnan side dishes.
