He can make a few plates pretty well, but he cannot just make anything.
His baking experience is absolute chaos.
Like his soba is good, because he makes it so much he’s perfected it.
But anything more complex?
Look, it would be sweet.
But you might be like ‘oh gosh this- uhh- is very nice of you- you really didn’t have to’
He will be a bit confused, he can tell something is off but he won’t really get that the food isn’t that good.
He’s pretty proud of his work.
Please please do not tell this angel his food is king of gross, it will leave him dejected for ages,
Just suggest cooking together next time, It’ll be fun!
And you two can cook and you can help him a bit, he’s eager to learn and help out he just needs someone to teach him a bit.
Enji sure as hell doesn’t cook for him or teach him shit in the kitchen.
He’s a very patient man, but after like the third failed attempt at baking a cake the cake Still not rising, his eyebrows are knit and he’s looking at the cake the way he looked at his dad the first time we see them interact.
It makes him grumpier because he wants to cook for you
Like it’s a sweet gesture he wants to pull off,
But he just cannot figure it out so someone please help this kid out.
Teach him something easy he can make Please.
Katsuki Bakugo
Bakugo can cook.
And it’s soo good, he knows how to cook pork perfectly so that it melts in your mouth, and can make a wide range of dishes.
Does he want to make something?
It’s only a quick google away for the recipe, and this man will skim it once and he’s got it.
Katsuki also leaves the kitchen spotless after using it.
The dream roommate because of this, as long as you clean up whenever you use the kitchen.
He will cook for you, and yes it will be delicious but do not make a big deal about it or else you can kiss the amazing homecooked meals goodbye.
I can see him getting mad at you for eating poorly.
Like if you’re someone who eats a lot of boxed ramen or canned soup, he will yell at you for it.
“What the fuck? Don’t be so lazy, that shit every day is bad for you moron”
He will silently make 2 plates every time he cooks after he catches your bad habit.
If you work late there will be an unlabeled plastic tin with what he claims are “leftovers, Eat them, We don’t need more shit in the fridge anyways”
If you cook for him it’s not bad he might complain in general, but he’s not picky.
So if he looks particularly worn out he will appreciate a solid meal already made for him, he may act mad though.
“I don’t fucking need you cooking for me, you understand that, nerd!?”
He’s good at cooking, but I didn’t say he’s good at baking.
He has like 0 patience in general, and baking is not an exception.
Like he can make all the boxed stuff, and like basic cookies and brownies.
But a cake from scratch? There will be scorch marks all over the kitchen.
He will tackle it and make that god damn cake no matter how long it takes.
Do not get me wrong it will not look right, but somehow it will taste fine.
That is good enough for him after all that struggle, you’d best enjoy that cake.
I don’t see him even attempting to bake a cake unless he really wants to surprise someone or do something special for someone.
Izuku Midoriya
He’s… Methodical with his cooking.
It lowkey might stress him out to make big fancy meals.
But otherwise, he’s fine.
Deku doesn’t love cooking or particularly like it for that matter.
He will avoid it if at all possible, but he won’t complain.
Too much.
If he does have to cook for any special or particular reason he studies the recipe and needs it printed out near him.
This man will follow along with the recipe and still forget something. “Ah! Why didn’t it rise?? Shoot! I forgot baking soda…”
I also think he’s not picky when eating food, so if his food is a little burnt or off he will most likely not notice it or just not be bothered by it at all.
Unlike with Bakugo and Shoto if you criticize his food he won’t really be upset about it, he knows it’s not the best but he’s willing to learn and feedback is the first part of that!
I will say his food definitely isn’t bad,
I feel like when he was a kid he helped his mum cook quite a bit so he’s a master at helping.
Cooking with him is nice, he will play music, hum, and dance around a bit as he chops green onions or whatever needs to be chopped.
Just overall good vibes.
Fumikage Tokoyami
He knows a bunch of simple meals.
And a lot of them are meat-based.
He 100% learned how to cook so he could give Dark Shadow good food.
Like after a fight or something where dark shadow did a good job he will cook for him and pamper him for it.
They’re so cute?
He’s been cooking for a while and although they’re simple meals,
They are GOOD.
He will get flustered if you give him complements on it. Will 100% be a blushy boy like “I appreciate that... I still have a lot to learn though...”
If he’s cooking for something fancy he will still make something rather simple but it will look very tasty.
He’s pretty calm and patient with his cooking, even if it takes a while.
He will get flustered baking though.
There are just a lot more parts and baking is a lot more complicated.
He also hasn’t spent nearly as much time baking and he doesn’t really enjoy all the work of beating eggs and making sure not to mess with batter or dough too much so it won’t disinflate.
He’s also not so committed to making baked goods, so he won’t get really frustrated and retry and retry.
Most likely if he really cares he will ask someone for help or advice on what to do.
He does like to try out making different cookies occasionally though.
All of the recipes he tries out are safe for Dark Shadow to eat, because he has a big appetite.
And Tokoyami doesn’t mind giving him well-deserved snacks.
