Flavours & Seasonings.... and some more!
Flavours and seasonings is all about trying to reignite my old passion – Collecting recipes!
There was a time when I loved experimenting with different
types of recipes. Writing down meticulously the ingredients and method to cook up a dish seemed
to be a great pastime. Many colorful and good-to-gobble-down-looking magazine
cutouts found place in one of my four hand-written recipe books. I would
experiment some and make my family taste stuff that no one else would dare to.
Sometimes it was eaten out of I-shouldn’t-break-her-heart-sympathy, but surprisingly
enough most of the times it fetched me some awesome compliments! ;)
I could coax all sorts of smells and flavors out of a bland
looking dish. You see, I ain’t a big fan of artificial colors. A bit of Seasoning and a dash of flavour was all that was required to make the food taste
restaurant-like!
What I have never been able to achieve, even today, is the same "Maa ke haath ka khana" taste. Well, someday! :) Till then, there are recipes by my Maa.... and I shall keep trying!
