Where to begin. Honestly, it feels like a blank. Starting to post regularly after a long dry period is slightly tough. Of course, if I really wanted to, I would. However, I feel like this is not where my focus should be, right now. This should explain my lack of posting. In saying this, though, I am doing really progress with my food journey. As mentioned in my last post, I am enthusiastically pursuing my culinary adventure, especially in the production classes.
I will try to post at least once per month.This blog has really helped me in so many ways. When I had quiet time, this is where I used to fill the days. I would find myself sorting through endless photos to post. I can still vividly remember when I began this blog, it is when my real journey towards food became alive. I have always been mesmerised and drawn to the creative process behind food: to create dishes that are not only visually appealing, aesthetically soothing, but also taste wonderful, smells delicious and are super nutritious. It is such an intricate process to get the balance of flavours right, as well as the textures. I have slowly become familiar with ingredients combination, what goes well with what, like for example, lamb and rosemary, tomato and basil, apple and cinnamon. Something that I have become increasingly more accustomed to is making use of seasonal ingredients and what I have on hands. Letting the mind works and the creative processes loose.
Lately, I have started to try creating more dishes. I have finally managed to bridge the wide gap between reading a recipe and actually making it. You won't know until you try. I enjoy reading cookbooks, looking for recipes, but I would always end up with a massive collection of recipes, yet to be created. I will additionally watch countless of cooking shows without taking any action whatsoever. I am finally embracing the power of reproducing dishes, adding my own twist, plating up and of course, devouring the amazing food. The key is to getting started and you never know where it might lead you. So TRY, TRY, TRY........
