My journey through the gastronomical lane

Fascinating foods and delicacies are always attracted me from my child hood. When I grow up and look back I had lots of memories of different kind of preparations maid by my mom and aunts. Like every person I warship my mom’s cooking as always and no food probably is better than those lovely simple preparations maid by her with lots of love in that. but her recipes and cooking used be admired by many people apart from us, which I miss now but my wife and I got a chance to learn few of her culinary arts fortunately. Still I am lucky to have homely Bengali food cooked by my aunts.
 I visited lots of places in India and got a chance to experience unique recipes and wonderful testy foods. Sometime I feel those recipes, the way they used to cook food are going into oblivion.
People are more hooked to junk foods and our next generation may not get chance to test those mouth-watering simple foods in future and those recipes and techniques will be lost.
People also used have amazing knowledge of understanding what is fresh, how to identify the right things and what will test well with what. All most of the elder men in the family used to have good knowledge of how to check fish is fresh, identifying different kind of fishes, which part of mutton will be softer and how to select them and which vegetable will test better and which part should be used for what dishes.
I have also seen that they used to have amazing traits to use all parts of vegetables in different dishes and there are less wastage of foods.

I am in the quest of all those lost recipes, unique places to have food, those unique people, unique food joints and many more about cuisines, cooking and gastronomical fantasies and unique stories.
