ingredient可数吗 ingredient

当问到家里谁负责做饭时，通常我们都会回答妈妈做饭。当然也可以说家人都很忙，所以都不做，几乎天天在外面吃 (Actually no one in my family does cooking as all are busy with work. We eat out almost every day) 。在回答有没有做过饭时，可以采用常规的回答，比如曾经做过一次，不仅把厨房弄得一团糟，还要自己收拾，做的食物也很难吃 (Yes, I did once before. I made a mess in the kitchen and still had to tidy up by myself. Besides, the food was terrible to swallow.) 。
