Food Do people still wear aprons?

[Cthullu]

I definitely do! And when I don't, I always regret it. Too many spills and splashes!

Agree 100%!!! Why do I always think it is ok to stir spaghetti sauce while wearing a white shirt and being too lazy to pop my apron on first????? Or fry an egg that I KNOW will pop oil after putting on my shirt for work?????

I also sew and like to make aprons!

Aprons are important. Even a spatter on a black sweater is noticeable. If you pull something out of the oven, roast, etc, it could well splatter when you cut into it. Save your clothes!

My mother always wore an apron and just this week I was thinking I need to find an apron as I was washing some dishes and water was getting all over my shirt

I do especially when making a big batch of home made red sauce or “gravy” as some call it. Also when prepping thanksgiving dinner... better than ruining good clothes.

I love to cook, always wear an apron. If I’m in someone else’s kitchen and they don’t have, I make one out of a towel or table cloth.

after work last night i was so hungry when i returned home so i made some quick noodles without changing my work attire, the soup was boiling harsh and splashed on my silk blouse. total write off. so i am going to buy an apron but actually should never wear nice clothes cooking.

I do if I'm wearing good clothes....most of the time I'm not wearing anything I care much about when cooking

 

[jbags07]

Definitely. I have a couple of linen aprons i got on Etsy that are wonderful. Wearing them makes me feel likeva proper cook

Depending what I am cooking, messy cooking ABSOLUTELY!

 

[Love Of My Life]

Yes I still do & just order a couple to have around for the upcoming holidays

 

[fendifemale]

I do! It's a Texas flag with ruffles.

 

[Purses & Perfumes]

I just wear an old T shirt and shorts or pants when I am cooking. I cook pretty regularly and have never used an apron.

Just wondering if you guys still wear aprons when in the kitchen! Or maybe for other things like cleaning? If so, what kind?

Good question!

 

[gelbergirl]

Yes, mine is blue gingham.

Hi!

Depends on the "setting".

On normal days, I have already switched into "home clothes" when I cook. No apron.

With people over for dinner/lunch. I will have done everything that can be prepared/ made in advance in my "home clothes", then change clothes, then I wear an apron for the "up to the minute" stuff.

Cooking with friends, I wear an apron.

During festivities, before going out, (...) I mostly wear an apron if I have to get something done in the kitchen before.

Kind regards,
Oliver
