Aside from being an actress and a girlfriend to Dingdong Dantes, Marian Rivera is also a dedicated kitchen diva.

 

She loves to cook and has already mastered some recipes, but she plans on improving her skills by taking a formal culinary course.

Kapuso star Marian Rivera has a bit of a dilemma.

How can she can focus on her hobby—cooking—if she's not going to have any break after Amaya?

A few weeks after her last taping day for the epic serye, she is set to start working My Beloved, her reunion project with real-life sweetheart Dingdong Dantes.

How can she find time for classes in a culinary school?

"Bahala na kung paano ko aayusin yung schedule ko para magawa ko pa rin 'yon," she told PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) on January 6 at the Amaya's sound stage in Marilao, Bulacan.

The 27-year old actress revealed that cooking as been her passion. "Mahilig kasi ako magluto," she says.

"Tapos nag-aral ako mag-bake sa sarili ko through books.

"Sabi ko, 'Bakit hindi ko mas palawakin yung mga alam ko sa ganyang bagay?'

"So gusto kong pumasok sa school. Hindi basta one-day lang, ha, gusto ko school talaga."

She prefers to undergo a full-time program than a crash course, which she can finish in a couple of days.

"Kasi doon sa school lahat ituturo nila, e. Kahit gusto ko o ayaw ko, lahat ng proseso nila ituturo nila sa'yo."

From proper food preparation to knife handling techniques and other kitchen skills; Marian is very eager to learn the ins and outs of cooking.

"Gusto ko kasing palawakin yung nalalaman ko.

"Kasi marami akong alam [na lutuin] pero wala akong alam na ibang twist na puwedeng gawin sa pagkain."

    good plan, Marian, at least she is thinking of her fall back, although, college graduate naman sya, she will survive even without showbiz, unlike other stars, because, acting is the only thing they know, nangangapa at nadedepress na sila kapag di na sila uso. It pains me to see stars who are trying to claw themselves back to the limelight without success and they get frustrated and they take out on themselves or others. Marian is relaistic enough that she knows the fame is not forever and that she can be an ordinary person and can carve another career aside from showbiz. She is not driven by just fame and money but the self satisfaction and motivation by setting her own objective outside of showbiz.

    He he he Alam na niya na hindi na magtagal ang career niya, kaya naka isip ng mag culinary arts, mag negosyo na lang. Buti pa, kasi ang mga artistang may masamang ugali hindi nagtatagal sa movie industry. Madaling malaos, Kita niyo si Maricel Soriano,wala na talaga. Duon din patungo si Inday Bibe.LOL

    Marian is so INSPIRING. EDUCATION is her priority, COLLEGE DEGREE HOLDER yet she wants to LEARN MORE. Not typical for young stars nowadays. Mas pinahanga p nya ako dahil gusto niya matuto ng WALANG SHORT CUT. Unlike iba dyan FROZEN DELIGHT n nga, wala pang time tapusin miski high-school man lang. Pak

    I hope you will really pursue taking up your planned culinary arts. It will bring you to another field of success --that of cooking, which, obviously, you are already fond of and have a natural ability to cook well!
