Platonic! Korra Gang x Chef! Reader
This is the Request of @chantillymoon i hope You're doing good with your Cooking, i'm sure it's fantastic๐! I hope this give you a little motivation๐
Genre: Headcanons
Reader: neutral
Warnings: none, pure fluff
Korra
Korra probably met you in the events of book 1 (did you see the Gala where Mako went with Asami? one of those), you were in food service.
and since Korra was a bit moody and in a new city, you were friendly with her and they got along quite well. You tried to entertain her a little with your cooking (like the chefs in certain Asian places, if you're a firebending master or something like that, even better).
Thanks to this Korra was going to see you when she needed to talk and generally let loose a little. You guys became friends pretty quickly.
If you have your own place, Korra tries to promote you when she interacts with important people and the topic of Catering comes up.
She firmly believes that your food is much better than the holidays food honestly. especially those of Unalaq.
I have a feeling that in the water tribe, especially in the south, there is not a very complex gastronomy thanks to literally living at a pole.
It's a more personal hc, but I think Korra grew up eating mainly fish and its variables (maybe rice and vegetables)
Obviously, she ate more things in her training to be an avatar, but it's not like it was food as such to "eat" but rather those for nutrition purposes.
so when she becomes a friend of yours (cutie) and you give her VERY varied and VERY delicious food, she is delighted.
like โFINALLY something that is nutritious and TASTES GOOD!โ
Besides, you cook a lot of variety, so Korra doesn't know where to choose. but she has a big appetite, so it's not unreasonable to think that you probably won't run out of leftovers with her.
If you're stressed about a particular recipe, she may try to help you by giving you a hand with things in the kitchen that she knows she can't screw up, like reading you the recipe book or handing you things, all while trying to joke with you to relax you and make you laugh.
If you want a definitive break, flour war! Whoever ends up completely white loses and Naga will have to clean it up!
Now, apart from improvised or high-survival food, Korra doesn't cook shit, she doesn't know how to handle herself very well, so seeing you be so fluent in that habit is something new for her. Of course, she was used to her parents cooking. but not at your level, so there's a lot of excitement on Korra's part about how you learned all this.
If you try to teach her, can she go either very badly or...decent? which cannot be said whether it is good or bad.
Since at first Korra may even, trying to make things easier (or imitate you, if you use your elemental control to cook) use her avatar skills in the kitchen, which since she has no experience ends very badly ๐
with muddy dough everywhere.
or even with BURNT water in some way??
but after a few attempts and several burnt bouls, Korra gets the hang of it and manages to start improving her cooking skills!
She can make simple meals now at least.
but she always prefers yours, you make them much more delicious, according to her.
Korra is not going to tolerate any destructive criticism of you, who does she have to hit?she's going to scare them with the fucking avatar state๐คฃ๐
Sure, she can TOLERATE constructive criticism because it's not malicious, but she doesn't understand why people eat your products if they're not going to like it anyway?
do not understand.
In general, Korra encourages your vocation a lot and encourages you to try new things with her :3
Asami
Asami knows you because of Varrik, he needed as many staff as possible, including the kitchen, so he hired you as soon as he liked one of your meals without thinking about it.
Asami needed a break from all of Varrik's antics, so she went to the staff areas for a while (without realizing it) and you noticed her state.
So you talked to her while you prepared something simple for her to eat and get energy back.
It was kind of nice, since you didn't feel intimidated by her or what had happened with her father, a breath of fresh air, so you continued seeing each other after that (in a platonic way).
Asami is used to eat in High Quality and/or fancy places before this, and still doing it.
which most of the time is not bad, on the contrary, it usually produces rich and delicious food.
but there are also times when for some people (ahem VARRIKahem) it just needs to be prettier and tasteless to be considered "gourmet" and even if it's not high quality food, Asami sometimes misses the feeling of having a normal meal. .
That's when you come into her life, her bubbly friend, to make things way better.
Asami probably never had a home-cooked meal as such (no, it doesn't count if CHEFS make it for you Asami) so it was a new experience for her. In the good sense.
Instead of eating aesthetically impressive but disgusting food, with you I could eat things that were really modest but that TASTED GOOD.
If you are having problems like not finding someone to give you more advanced cooking classes, don't worry! Asami will give you a hand with her contacts and help you find a good tutor.
If you already have your own place, rest assured that Asami (and in general the entire Avatar team) will come to see you and buy you food often no matter what you sell.
Even if you have any financial problems with the place, Asami has your back and helps you as much as possible. You may even become a constant Catering associate for the company!
Asami also tries not to let her friendship with you affect you so directly, especially when scandals arise with her father.
He goes to you for advice when they go out to eat, your food gives him a certain feeling of peace after all, so when you both go out he can be with a cooler head.
It's a feeling of familiarity that she hasn't felt in a LONG time.
You can definitely see Asami especially liking food with meat or more complicated things, but then again, he also really likes it when you make really simple things, like pasta or pizza, for example.
She says that it is because "you do it with love" and it is partly true, that you put so much effort into the preparation makes it much more special and she appreciates it a lot.
but in general I think she doesn't usually give you negative comments.
I mean, if you happen to screw up some food and it tastes REALLY bad, you know it just by looking at her face, even so she will never give you a "bad" word so to speak, she use very sweet constructive criticism and still assure you that you did a good job.
and you can also guarantee that if there is a particular food that she likes, she will pay you to make a couple of reservations for her ;) she can't help it! She loves how you cook!
If someone tries to criticize you in a non-constructive way and is simply Bullying you, she will directly kick their ass and deal with the consequences then why would someone be mean to a little sun like you? It doesn't make sense to her.
In general, a friend who supports you financially, emotionally and psychologically is always willing to give you a hand in the kitchen.
That's right, don't let her cookโ ๏ธ she may hace good intentions but she'll burn everything.
Mako
OMFG he LOVES THE FOOD YOU MAKE FOR HIM.
Now, let's get a little sentimental.
Mako and Bolin growing up on the streets probably never really had much to eat, not to mention they probably didn't eat every day.
especially Mako, I imagine that he probably even gave what little they had to eat to Bolin.
It's a habit for him.
So when he meets you and you give him a taste of your food, for FREE, he thinks you're too good to be true.
but he appreciates it very much.
but seeing how much his opinion matters to you. warms his heart.
For the same reason you could feed him the most disgusting thing you could cook and he would eat it like a big child.
He will tell you the truth, but he doesn't leave a crumb.
For the same reason, I have two possible versions of how the two of you met and became close friends.
One, the one I like the most, is that probably when you were younger and trying to cook on your own, Mako and Bolin tried to steal your food, failing miserably.
But from then on you started leaving food scraps on your window for them to grab so they wouldn't die of hunger.
Thanks to this little by little they began to interact more and even began to help you to apply seriously in the kitchen!
and the other possibility is that he knew you thanks to Pro-control, being the one who will be in charge of the food at the events.
In this scenario at first he would be colder but eventually either because of Bolin or because of your adorable personality, you end up liking him.
other than that he can see that you can't swing a fly, and that you're REALLY passionate about your job, so he respects you a lot for that.
We all know that Mako is more of a tough guy or expresses that he cares through actions, so he shows that he cares by showing interest in your hobby and helping you as much as he can.
But when he already has a stable job and can give you a hand.
When something specific goes wrong, he tries to cheer you up in an unconventional way, such as telling you something about his work to distract you a little or even inviting you something to eat to de-stress.
Maybe even Mako himself has learned to cook from you, of course, he is not at the same level but when you are very stressed or tired he has your back.
and when you manage to do what you want, he sincerely congratulates you, he knows that you deserve it after all.
Similar to his other friends and Bolin, Mako is quite protective of you, especially if you can't control any elements.
It's like the dynamic of "Sunshine + Sunshine protector" basically.
It also tries to help you accept criticism well, which is necessary to improve after all.
Although of course, if there is someone who is telling you shit just because and without really wanting to help you, give them the names, they will not tolerate it.
In general, he is a friend who is a bit rude but who defends you, appreciates you and supports you in your tastes, hobbies and career. regardless of how You two met.
He knows that you are as good a person as you cook well, and you are a VERY good cook ;)
Bolin
Again, HE LOVES THE FOOD YOU MAKE FOR HIM.
Bolin, similarly to Mako, has two possibilities for how he met you.
one more painful than the other.
the first, in which he knew you for trying to steal something from your leftovers when he was little, in itself, living on the streets of a republic city is not nice.
but at least you took pity on him and started leaving him leftovers. which left him EXTRACTED because (according to him) YOU COOKED AMAZING. even if at that time you were just practicing.
Even if you try to tell him that he was probably just saying that because it was his first meal in god knows how long, he still thinks the same thing.
and the second way, unlike his brother, is that he simply found you working somewhere he likes.
Maybe even with his amorous nature, at first he had a crush on you, but over time he realized that it wasn't what he really felt.
In general he is your personal cheerleader.
No matter how many times you fail to make a particular meal, Bolin eats it like his life depends on it. unlike Mako, he doesn't have the heart to say anything even remotely critical of your food :,)
He's also the kind of friend who constantly gives you ideas for new recipes. some good, some not so good, and some quite extravagant.
ex: some dessert based on Pabu.
It breaks Bolin's heart to see you sad when you don't get a particular recipe, but he will immediately move on to a session of giving you compliments and reminding you how you made other recipes to motivate you.
I can definitely see him recommending you to the important people he hung out with when he worked with Varrik, both to do you a favor and to be able to see you in those moments when Mako couldn't pay attention to him.
Bolin's favorite food is definitely desserts. cakes, cupcakes, pies, candies, anything that is sugary.
and if you get to practice making animal food (like for Pabu) Bolin is OVER THE MOON.
I can see Bolin trying to learn cooking things with you, both to spend time together and to be more independent, to help Mako out.
Apart from that, he would have the opportunity to try more of your food :D but he makes a great effort to listen to your advice and follow the instructions you leave him.
The results are quite promising! along with Mako, he is the best cook of the group (hc personal).
Similarly to Asami, he seeks advice from you when he feels left out of the group and doesn't know what to do.
Normally you prepare something hot for him so he doesn't feel so bad. It would probably be his second favorite food of yours, hot soups. In general they remind him of you, a warm and comforting presence.
Bolin is more passive when it comes to criticism and when it is constructive he makes sure to remember it and even writes it down so as not to forget it and thus apply it in his own attempts.
but eventually you can better distinguish between constructive and destructive criticism.
and when someone like that shows up, no matter how strange it may seem, they usually just ignore it. He wants to believe that he is better than them after all...
...only to launch Pabu on the attack in defense of your honor. Although well, didn't you see it coming?
He is generally a very sweet friend, he does not distinguish in social class or how or how long the two of you have known each other. He is convinced that you have genuine talent for cooking.
and he is very willing to show you that you have that talent and support you through everything.
Conclusion: They all love your food but they love the person behind that food more and how you support them in difficult times :,)
Shares, reblogs, and comments are very welcome!
Thank you very much for this Request โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ

Puerto Rican ๐ต๐ท peasant food is the best food in the world, in my opinion. My grandma grew up in Puerto Rico. The family was very poor so they learned to take humble ingredients and transform them into a delightful and delectable dish. The red kidney beans were made by making a sofrito of onions, green peppers, garlic, tomato paste, salt, and pepper. You then add the beans that have been soaking in water overnight to the sofrito. After adjusting the seasoning, the beans cook on low heat until they are tender. You serve them over white rice. This dish is sooooooo delicious that I would choose it over steak and lobster any day. Puerto Rican ๐ต๐ท peasant food is spectacular. These beans taste so good that I don't even miss the meat. They are high in protein. It's a very healthy and nutritious meal. It is inexpensive and it's fantastic. I, highly, recommend learning to make great rice and beans. I'm gonna have another bowl. Mmmmmmmm โค๏ธ ๐๐๐ thems good eats ๐๐

Title: The Thanksgiving Supper
Hello, November. ๐๐ Here's another Art Trade for my A-Pal, @bryan360. ๐ต๐ท๐บ๐ธ๐
And unfortunately, this is the LAST ART TRADE between ME and my A-Pal as a every month art trade before we switched to occasional Art Trade, in 2025. The reason for that was because, I want a focused on myself, and trying to find a job that will suited my personality, and a certified PWD-friendly. ๐ผ๐จโ๐ผ๐โฟ Was it hard to find a job (, with specific details)? Well, yes it is. I just want a earn some dough just to unlock my everyday needs. *sigh* ๐๐
Anyway, let's turn my frown upside down, and get this over with. ๐
IMPORTANT NOTE: No #OnThisDay throwback post for this date because of the aforementioned 'Thanksgiving Day'. Even though, I'm an outsider of US.
โข We've seen a lot of Thanksgiving balloon parades for the past years, but what about seeing them in a feast? ๐ค Well, let's give a chance by going a different route from the city to the isolated landscape. And the Speedster and the Rabbit/Fox family tree had found the perfect rented place for their "Thanksgiving Supper"! ๐๐ฆ๐๐ฅ And as you can see, they're all dressed up in swapped clothing gifted by each other, with the most notable moment where Rita ๐ถ๐บ and Windy ๐ฐ๐ค exchanging their traditional meals (Meanwhile, Choco ๐ฐ๐ซ tries to make fun with a homemade slingshot and a small green pea, only to be interrupted by Miya ๐ฐ๐ป๐ tossing the plate like a flying saucer to block Choco's fun shot. Not cool, Choco. ๐) of Philippine ๐ต๐ญ๐ฝ๏ธ and American ๐บ๐ธ๐ฝ๏ธ dishes albeit a vegan-style of ingredient used. Instead of turkey, Windy ๐ฐ๐ค cooked a nice homemade roasted carrot ๐ฅ, with a side of nice tasty mashed potatoes ๐ฅ, while Rita ๐ถ๐บ chooses a Pinoy-style Spaghetti with tofu bits ๐๐ซ๐ฅฉ (instead of ground beef), and a tasty vegetable fried brown rice ๐ฅฆ๐! Which is far nutritious friendly than the white fried rice variant! Uh yeah, and their drinks? A nice pumpkin juice ๐๐ฅค made from them, specifically the aforementioned Rita & Windy. All in all delicious! ๐
Rita ๐ถ๐บ [wearing her owned Windy clothes]: Tama ("correct" in English) ka, creator my friend! ๐ I bet our traditional thanksgiving feast were sarap ("delicious" in English) as before! Since we're both love eating gulay ("vegetables in English) over karne ("meat" in English). Although, unlike the Rabbit/Fox family, we Speedsters love eating meat albeit moderately. ๐
Bonn ๐ฐ๐น [wearing his owned Scottie clothes]: Absolutely tama ka, Rita my asawa ("honey/husband" in English)! ๐ I can't wait to dig in not just your pagluluto mo ("your cooking" in English), but also our friend Windy's luto niya! ๐ด๐ While serving a nice cold pumpkin juice with Scottie, my friend! ๐๐ฅค
Rita ๐ถ๐บ [wearing her owned Windy clothes]: Awww, Bonn my asawa! ๐ฅฐ That's why I loved you, so so much as we loved our friendly kapitbahay ("Neighbor" in English)! C'mon, let's manalangin ("Pray" in English) together before we kainin ("Eat" in English)! ๐๐๐ด
Bonn ๐ฐ๐น [wearing his owned Scottie clothes]: Aww yeah! Tagay ("Cheers" in English), to all our pamilya ("Family" in English) and our Thanksgiving celebration! 'Happy Thanksgiving Day', everyone! ๐
Well, that's all for now and 'Happy Thanksgiving Day' to all! ๐๐ฆ๐๐
The Speedster Family (Chowder OCs) - created by ME! The Rabbit/Fox Family (Rabbit & Fox OCs) - owned by @bryan360

currently working on a frankenstein esque vincent fic and needed to share that w someone ๐๐
๐๐๐ ooooooooooh, a frankenstein-esque vinny concept??? delicious nutritious scrumptious!!! ๐๐๐ I'm SO into that oof
bc like.
how do u reconcile being both prometheus and the people he formed out of clay?? when ur the creature on the table desperately offering up love to ur creator only to be met by shock and horror?? while ALSO. SIMULTANEOUSLY. being victor frankenstein w/a scalpel in his hand, crafting life from madness and obsession ONLY to spurn ur creation as soon as u manage to bring it into the world?? when ur the creator and the destructor and u have to be both. bc each goes hand-in-hand.
the duality. the FLAVOR.
god. I have deeply pondered my orb abt this jsdhfjhfdsjhjdsf back in ye olden days when I legitimately thot I was capable of spitting out a multichapter vincent slowburn. what a true court jester I was
I immediately just ran over to my bookshelf and grabbed my copy of frankenstein bc I needed to get a quote
I have this boy highlighted and tabbed to absolute oblivion jdfhsjhsfdjhsfd
this particular bit lives rent-free in my brain tbh
The different accidents of life are not so changeable as the feelings of human nature. I had worked hard for nearly two years, for the sole purpose of infusing life into an inanimate body. For this I had deprived myself of rest and health. I had desired it with an ardour that far exceeded moderation; but now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart.
anyway this is all to say AAAAAAAAA. VERY v excited to see what u cook up ๐๐๐

ๅคงๅฎถๅฅฝ! Usually, a flu/cold takes me only a day to recover, but a pesky cold bothered me for 2 days, so I walked to the nearby coffee shop for mutton, pork or chicken. Meat is fine and has its nutritional purpose if we eat it in moderation and I have some from time to time. What I take into consideration are: how often, how much and how the meat is cooked. Whilst oil is used in stirfried and braised dishes, I generally don't finish the gravy or sauces when I eat qing dan (less oil and salt), so a lot of the oil is left behind.
What I had: braised sesame oil chicken, tomato and shredded carrot scrambled eggs as well as stirfried bitter gourd and zhou (porridge). Iced local coffee completed the satisfying meal. The black stuff in some veggie dishes is hei mu er, which I eat to keep my blood pressure normal (due to its believed blood-thinning properties, it generally isn't recommended for those on blood-thinning medications here). Hei mu er is similar to mushrooms texture-wise; because it's tasteless, it takes on the flavour of whatever else it's cooked with. Bitter gourd helps prevent diabetes and in less severe cases, some claimed to have been cured naturally after eating it for prolonged periods.
youtube
Another day, another variation of fish soup, this time with yam (taro) rice. Chunks of yam, dried shrimp, cabbage and finely diced mushrooms are some of the ingredients used to make this delicious dish. At home, we sometimes swap the yam for pumpkin, which is just as yummy and nutritious. If you think about it, wholegrain bread and pasta are still made from flour, which is even more processed than white rice. Not to mention shortening is needed to bind the flour to make some of these breads and pastas so... ๐ค
youtube
This week, 5 of us - MS, XT, JA, JL and me - had a stroll after our meal (our group is getting bigger!); on some days there was only enough time to circle the office building twice, but that was better than nothing. I hadn't expected this tbh; it was just a way of helping JL to break out of her largely sedentary lifestyle. On the way to eat, I casually suggested to JL that we might consider catching up on a weekend, grab a bite then go for a walk together since her home isn't that far away from mine. Hearing this, JA asked if we would head to her neighbourhood, on the opposite side of the country, so we can do this together. We'll see how it works out since all of us have time constraints.
The pesky cold is gone and I'm back to feeling normal, just tired from the heavier workload. In the last few days, a coupla gym bro friends have pivoted away from diets promoting 'healthy oils' to Asian qing meals and that's a good sign. To me, it signals that they're weighing the pros of 'gains' against the risks of hypertension and heart attacks in their later years. Sure, we may have harmed our health following 'experts' from countries with lousy health statistics but there's still time to change before it's too late. ไธๆฌก่ง!

I made homemade ricotta cheese gnocchi for the first time!! They are light, fluffy pillows of love and goodness!! โค๏ธ they cost pennies to make, and they're sooooooo easy to make. I finished cooking them and plating them in less than half an hour. I made the sauce yesterday because it always tastes better the day after making it because it gives it time for the spices to blend. Although they have Parmesan cheese in them, I sprinkled it on top because it tastes great. I can never have enough Parmesan ๐๐ next time, I'm gonna try making gnocchi with potatoes. I think that will be wonderful, too! I, highly, recommend cooking homemade gnocchi. It's easy, cost-effective, nutritious, and delicious. They're, also, very fun to make. In the words of Julia Child.... bon Appรฉtit ๐
