What do you cook that you hate the smell of?

My husband loves to make turkey bacon in the microwave and it about makes me gag. It's so gross.

brussel sprouts

Steak-um's. They stink when they're cooking. Uck! Peeyew!

DH loves them though, so he has to cook them himself. It's one of the few dishes he makes.

My Mom couldn't stand the smell of frying bacon. I think fried bacon smells yummilicious!

Another one that makes me is boiled chicken.

That turkey bacon smell in the morning makes me sick to my stomach too, and hubby has been cooking it a lot.

There are these shrimp potstickers that taste really good, but stink up the whole house. I only cook them when it is warm enough to leave the windows open

Sauteed onions - they smell like BO!

 

[dizluvah]

cabbage

 

[Scotgirl]

Custard!

hamburger meat!! In fact it makes me so sick Dh has to cook it and turn on the overhead vent. If I smell it cooking I can't eat it.

eggs - I love them, but the smell is gross. DH always makes his breakfast each AM while I am in the shower. SO I get out and the house always reeks of scrambled eggs. I gag.

most meat (bacon is really the only one I can tolerate - while cooking....the smell that lingers AFTER cooking, though....makes me queasy). Ground buffalo - which is what my family eats - is so nasty smelling...I have to plug my nose while cooking, or leave the house and have DH cook it. Blech.

Ok I have to ask but if something smells so gross that you gag or have to have someone else cook it why do you eat it I hate the smell of fish and some meats cooking but as a vegetarian I don't eat it. I love the smell of everything I am cooking for myself. If it smelled bad I wouldn't be eating it

Eggs frying in butter.

Don't mind eggs or cooking scrambled eggs, just the combination of the frying butter and fried egg.




For all those that hate the smell of browning ground meat, try sprinkling a little onion powder on it raw when you first put it in the pan. For most things you are going to use it for the onion flavor won't hurt and it really does help with that smell you get cooking it.
