My mother is known for her cooking and I learned by watching, helping, and eventually trying and tweaking. I am always a little surprised at the number of women I meet who do not cook at all, who never learned to cook. My mom learned from her mom and I taught my girls the same way.

Fortunately, Mother is still here so we can still enjoy her cooking. I have a couple of recipes that are different every time and they notice too. This could all be solved by them doing the cooking. Which will never happen.

I sure do miss those kitchen times with her.

I think after years of cooking, one tends to just do things and forget that others might need steps A1, A2, A3, not just A,B,C. Lol. I suspect you're right about the kneading.
