Eva Mendes says that Ryan Gosling is โ€œan incredible cookโ€.

The โ€˜Hitchโ€™ star says what โ€œworksโ€ for and her longterm love โ€“ and father to their two daughters, Esmeralda, seven, and Amada, six, โ€“ is she does the cleaning and the 41-year-old actor cooks.

While talking about who does what domestic task, the 48-year-old actress told PEOPLE magazine: Ryanโ€™s the cook. Heโ€™s an incredible cook. I think that thereโ€™s a really nice balance to โ€˜you cook, I clean.โ€™ And it just works for us.โ€

Eva believes that โ€œclean sink equals clear mindโ€ so she uses it to calm herself after a stressful day.

She said: โ€œLife is so chaotic. But the one thing I can control is my house, my kitchen. So when I do the dishes itโ€™s meditative for me. It really goes deeper than just cleaning up. It really gives me clarity. Clean sink equals clear mind for me.โ€

โ€˜The Place Beyond the Pinesโ€™ star says she finds the process โ€œemotionalโ€ because of how she was raised in โ€œa tiny, tiny apartmentโ€..

Eva said: โ€œGrowing up in a tiny, tiny apartment with a lot of people, we didnโ€™t have anything. But when the house was clean, it was like, โ€˜Hey, I just feel better.โ€™ Everybody felt better. So for me, itโ€™s really emotional.โ€

She also shared that despite everything she still a โ€œmessโ€ working from home on all her projects due to the on-going COVID-19 pandemic.

Eva said: โ€œItโ€™s a mess! Iโ€™ll be Zooming with various people throughout the day and I have no idea. Iโ€™ll see people kind of giggle, and I see my five year old, who just turned six, will be right behind me with her blankie and looking so cute.โ€

Even after establishing some ground rules โ€“ only being able to come if the door is closed its โ€œsuper importantโ€ โ€“ Eva finds it difficult to maintain or stay mad.

She said: โ€œOf course, my six year old will run in and say, โ€˜Itโ€™s so important.โ€™ And Iโ€™m just like, โ€˜What?โ€™ Sheโ€™s like, โ€˜Essie took my Barbie,โ€™ but itโ€™s hard to be mad because itโ€™s so cute.โ€
