Food, air & water- 3 things vital for existence of Homo sapiens. Without getting into the debate as to who the creator was, let me start off to tell you a story. A story of how food became such a darling while the other two were reduced to be omnipresent step daughters.
Some billions of centuries ago, there were 2 people, Adam the ‘Man’ and Eve the ‘Woman’. The God (Supposedly the creator you see...) agreed to let them use everything whatever he created but for one small thing, an apple orchard (ding-dong, you don’t have to be a genius to know where the story is leading). The rest of the story is history. Eve wanted the forbidden fruit and she had it but couldn’t live happily ever after.
Now you see, the point of the story is that anything that is forbidden (without reasons of course!!! I don’t blame eve at all) is always sweeter. And once when you have already been punished (so called!!#@!! I am glad that I can bear and nurture life) then why don’t we use it to the max. I guess all generations of Eves thereafter took upon this thought and came out with some amazing stuff like apple pies, apple plum cakes and our very own desi apple kheer.
From there on, there was no turning back. In came the trend to mix various ingredients of food in various quantities and conjure up a beautifully made dish.
And this is an earnest effort from my side to pay a very deserving tribute to all those eves who have given us such amazing recipes over the generations, to cherish. I start this blog by inviting foodies from all over the world to come together and share their experiences, recipes and reviews of any damn thing which is even remotely concerned with FOOD.
