DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE THE FIRST MASTERCHEF ASIA?

I was the most ignorant person when it comes to cooking and stuff, don’t misunderstood me, I’ve always loved food and my love for food was the reason I started this blog. At my early days of blogging, all I knew was “delicious” or “not-so-delicious”, I didn’t have any clue about the name of the ingredients or the way to cook certain food, but along the way, I found that important and indeed experience is THE BEST teacher! I managed to develop a better knowledge for ingredients, food, process and eventually a more advanced palate.

I personally think it’s neccesary (especially when you love food) to have that knowledge for ingredients and all that cooking matters. Hey! A little knowledge wouldn’t hurt anyone ;).

If you’ve been following this blog, I think you knew that lately I’ve been addicted to baking and sharing with you guys the recipes! I must say you’re quite familiar with this?

Shared this recipe a while ago, in case you haven’t read it, it’s HERE.

As fortunate as I can be, I also have the best companion when it comes to cooking: MOM.

My mom is the greatest home cook I think I’ve ever personally known. I’d say so because she’s not only cooking with recipes, but more so because those recipes are in her and she’s been cooking with her heart for the family. The strongest reason to it is because her cookings ALWAYS make me miss home whenever I’m travelling.

Oh, I also cooked with her for this year’s CNY! My family has this tradition where all of the family members have to eat together at home on the Chinese New Year’s eve.

In some cases, home cook food are the best, aren’t they?

Even though I like cooking, I actually prefer those with simple cooking methods and less utensils needed (so less cleaning is needed too) :p, no but honestly for the sake of good cooking, I wouldn’t mind doing the cleaning.

Recently cooking this simple hearty ramen! Yum checked!

Cooking this was actually very simple! Will hand you the recipe soon!

I have so many inspirations when it comes to cooking, most of the times when I have my spare time, I like to do some blogwalking to some of the best cooking blog or general food blogs. I also like to browse the Instagram looking for shooting inspirations, watch cooking show like Masterchef US or Australia (or in Indonesia, Masterchef Indonesia), Hell’s Kitchen, and many more! If I skipped them there’s always YouTube! LOL.

BTW speaking of Masterchef, this famous TV show which has been expanding its franchise in 40 countries, is currently in search of that first ever talent to win the title of Masterchef Asia! For those of you who are 18 years old or older, have this immense passion for food and cooking with a little hint of bubbly personality, and is a goal digger, then you MIGHT HAVE THAT IN YOU!
