With the launch of the brand new recipe book from the UK's best-selling restaurant guide - The Good Food Guide - we asked the British public about their cooking habits.
Budding chefs
How confident are you in the kitchen? As part of the launch of the Good Food Guide Recipes book - featuring recipes from chefs including Michel Roux Jr - we asked over 1,200 members of the public* about their cooking habits to find out, with some surprising results.
Interesting, Brits don’t just age gracefully, they age creatively too. We found a fairly even split between those who cook creatively and those who follow the recipe, but almost half of those who experiment were aged over 65. Perhaps unsurprisingly the most poorly represented age-group when it creative cooking were the 16-24 year olds.
Some results were less surprising though. Fond memories of mum’s, rather than dad’s, home cooking are justified by our results which showed more than half of women are good all-round cooks in comparison to 37% of men. What’s more, 10% of men never cook, in comparison to only 1% of women.

Budding chefs now have the chance to match the gastronomic excellence of their favourite chefs with the Good Food Guide Recipes book. After 60 years of the highest-quality independent restaurant reviews, the Good Food Guide is offering members of the public an insight into what makes good food great with recipes from, among others, Raymond Blanc and Michel Roux Jr.
The Good Food Guide Recipes book makes an ideal Christmas gift and includes step-by-step recipes from 60 of the UK's best chefs and restaurants. It can be ordered on 01992 822800 (£25.00, p&p free), at our online bookshop or from good bookshops. And you can find our more about the 2011 Good Food Guide here.
