When we talk about India the first thing that comes in our mind is its diversity. As India is second largest country when it come’s to population. Different languages are spoken and it has about 28 states and 7 union territories. India is unique in its traditions and most important is its food. Therefore in every state different kind of food is served. The common thread that runs through most Indian food is the use of spices which helps in creating flavor and aroma.
It has been found that when it comes to food Indian take their food seriously. Therefore in India cooking is considered an art therefore mothers usually start teaching their daughters and pass down family recipes by show-and-tell, fairly young in life. Therefore in India mealtime plays important role for family to get together. Indian meals comprise several dishes such as ranging from staples like rice and breads to meat and vegetables and rounded off with a dessert. Therefore in almost every home in India food is made from scratch with fresh ingredients. It has been found that still number of Indian families purchase their favorite type of wheat, wash it, dry it in the sun and then take it in to a flourmill to have it ground into flour exactly the way they like, as opposed to buying flour from a store. But when it comes to bigger cities this trend is changing as people living in bigger cities prefer using ready-to-eat, pre-made ingredients foods. As this way they save their important time.
Indian people are very fascinated toward food as they like eating spicy and tasty food. These days’ numbers of TV channels are running cookery shows in which they teach latest recipes. And people like watching these shows. When we go back to history it has been found that India has been invaded and occupied by different cultures therefore each culture has left its own mark on Indian cuisine. India is one country in world which has variety of food to eat.
