The Urge to write this post came to my mind when my cousin brother was constantly asking me to make "Milk Halwa" Sweet and he even moved a step beyond, and bought the ingredients required.
Cooking is a day to day activity which happens like all other normal activities we do. It may look so simple and escape our attention, unless if one recognizes the kind of activities cooking really involves.
I used to see my mother cooking in kitchen and always wondered what she is trying to do. Usually used to find her fighting with the vessels, cutting vegetable, lettuces and adding spices and other ingredients. It always looked like some gimmicks being performed and we even make provision for making such gimmick in a room allocated for it! -"The Kitchen".
My wonders about such culinary activities seems to have pushed me to take some opportunities to cook. It is not usual that people should wonder and get into some astonishment to involve in cooking. It is very normal, anyone can cook.
Preparing hot water, tea, coffee, milk and so, are not even considered as cooking, but without such activities, no chef would have even born. With the help of my mother, Even I started to prepare tea, coffee and learned to make potato chips and milk sweets. And slowly and steadily learned to prepare breakfast and lunch at least to survive individually.
If one scrutinize and zoom in, to look what cooking really is, one could come to a realization that it is a whole lot of science. It requires lot of patience and tenacity for a cook to understand and prepare plausible food that could be served. some times even the cook would require to placate for the mistakes. sometime, the cook would be in requirement to prejudice and marshal the changes happening while cooking.
Even with the advent of advanced technologies cooking remains as an art and tangible only to the cooking artist.
