[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s hilarious that everyone is so surprised how easy it is to actually cook after they watch a Youtubr or TikTok video of someone telling them how to make it. If you can read you can probably make a most of the dishes you eat in restaurants.  The recipes are all online - with multiple methods, substitutions, additions, and comments of 500 people who tried it and can tell you what works and dues not.

And even before the internet the Ziti recipe has been on the box of pasta!![/quote]

Yes.  My teenage daughter just recently discovered how incredibly overpriced something like pasta with a simple sauce at a restaurant is -- how cheap it is to make at home and how easy.  I love Italian food but it's hard a bit hard to eat out at a lot of Italian places because I know I can make the same things more cheaply, better, and quickly at home.  So I eliminate half the menu that way.  I sort of hate making home-made ravioli, though, so that's an always a good one to eat out.  And eggplant parm is another one that's just such a pain to make at home.[/quote]

The Michael Angelos frozen eggplant parmesan is better than most restaurants-my family loves it.
