The survey of 2,806 U.S. women, commissioned by Asia Food Recipe, indicated 58 percent of the respondents said their husbands are better cooks, but 36 percent said they didn't have sufficient time to cook and 12 percent said they didn't want to clean up afterwards.

Although 78 percent said they enjoyed cooking, most were only able to cook six dishes from memory without having to refer to a recipe. Seventy-eight percent said their mothers could easily fix any of the dishes mentioned, while 11 percent said they couldn't cook more than three meals without turning to a cooking recipe book or seeking assistance. The survey was conducted March 1-14. No margin of error was provided. Read More Survey: One-third in U.S. can't cook Students have burning desire to cook
