Abstract
A questionnaire survey involving 120 questions was conducted on the preferred methods for home cooking.
The tendency for self-help was shown by the responses to 75 questions; for example,80% of the respondents said that they gutted fresh themselves.
The answers to 45 questions showed the tendency toward simplicity; for example,60% of the respondents said that they did not cook boiled soy bean or use canned soy bean.
The attributes of the respondents set for this study of age, working conditions, experience of cooking, likes/dislikes of cooking, and desire to learn cooking showed no correlative trend.
