Only Indians can understand the essence and flavour of Indian food. Maybe only a few parts of the world can find the real tastes of Indian cuisines. But it is true that after savouring they will slowly try to give the western foods.

Pizzas, Italian cuisines and Thai food have already taken a good place in the bellies and heart of India. But it is not preferred on regular basis, after a few days, there is crave home food or Indian food. Why?

Indian food Is rich in spices

Cultivation of vegetables to different kinds of spices are in ancient practices. With the beginning of the civilization of Indus valley growing of rice grains, vegetables and spices have a great place in ancient history.

Invaders and merchants became rich by exporting spices all over the world. Hence, Indian food has been ruling due to the spices that enriched the foods with variable tastes. The tastes are not only unique but the creativity of preparing the food is adorned with excellence.

Customised spices traditional Indian food

The traditional food is incomparable to the pizzas, pastas or simple Danish bread with sausages. Fish fillets or any roasts western made will never have the flavor of the spices customized, homemade Indian food. Indian women spend hours developing genuine and unique spices for their food. It can be for a simple fish curry or a vegetable mix with Aalu ka paratha without spices.

They try to develop their own individual recipes and add them to their food as a token of love for cooking and family, as a gesture of individuality.

Nutritious

The Indian food plate is a complete balanced diet. Highly nutritious but it does not mean that it will always have non-veg items in it. India’s food items can be both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, they are highly nutritious.

No! Indians do not have to depend on non-vegetarian items. As they have the habit of continuous researches on veg foods. So that foods are equally healthy and tasty. So, it is a wonderful place for the vegans who wants to avoid non-veg. A raw jackfruit curry that tastes greater than chicken or beans curry with spices will never allow loving the western food.

Even in matter of Food “Old is Gold”

History mentions the great emperors who made experiments on different dishes. Trying with wide ingredients and spices which are available in India. Akbar’s kitchen and his expereiments for non-veg while Jodha Bai’s veg items are one of the great examples of Indian food.

Statewise the tribes of the country have variations. It is from the south Indian dishes with the composition of salty and sour; to the north with rich chilly spices of the north. The sweet dishes from the east to dry and salty food of the west. It explains the richness of Indian food. It is expanding to a great extend comparing to western countries food.

Indian food can be made highly spicy to low spice ingredients, full of nutrition and above all unique customized tastes with individuality.

The post 5 Easy Peasy Recipes Every Pasta Lover Should Prepare And Devour appeared first on Youngisthan.in.

Let me first clarify the difference between real food and processed food.

Real foods are in their original form. Like ripe mangoes directly plucked from tree and eat.

Similarly all types of vegetables, fruits, cereals, pulses, leaves, roots, nuts, seed everything are real food. Even after cooking and preparing packaged foods like pickle are also real foods. Mechanically prepared foods are all real.

Then what are called as processed food. All chemically prepared foods are termed as Processed Food. Foods processed with chemicals and adding artificial color, textures etc are all processed.

Some Example of processed foods is Pizza, Burger, Roll, Cake, Pasta, Cookies etc.

Harmful Chemicals use in Processed Food:

Processed foods are flooded with harmful chemicals. All are highly carcinogenic and increase the cancer causing chance in our body.

However recently” Maggie” found with high dose harmful chemicals in its noodles. The Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) found in Maggie is a dangerous chemical which damaged our kidney. You might discipline yourself and never take alcoholic drink but a regular intake of Maggie, it may delicious food, can damage your kidney as like alcohol. What you are going to do then?

Saccharin used in processed food in the place of sugar is highly carcinogenic. Preservatives like BHA-Butylated Hydroxyanisole and BHT- Butylated Hydrozyttoluene will damaged the human nervous system. Little excess the amount of TBHQ- Tertiary Butylhydroguinone will cause the death of the human.

All the processed food manufacturing companies claim that their foods are safe but do these free from chemicals? The answer is no, more or less every processed food has contained deadly chemicals. Why we eating processed food with so much of interest? At what cost?

Reason of eating processed food:

All processed foods are very delicious foods in taste. These foods trigger our saliva to come out from its smell. This is not because we need the food but for the persuasive techniques use by the food companies. They are using the techniques called “Hyper-rewarding” in this technique it influences our brain to over eat.

Another technique is widely used in the food industry is the “Sensory- Specific-Satiety”. This is very dangerous formula it can make you addicted to certain processed food. That’s the reason why so many kids and children are addicted to the potato chips and other processed foods.

Nutritional Values:

What you think how much nutritious is the processed food. These contain only refined carbohydrates and fats. No protein, no vitamins, no minerals, they fool people with synthetic vitamin and minerals but you cannot make fool your body with these synthetic vitamins & minerals.

Our science is not developed so much that we can replace the natural vitamins, minerals and antioxidant. Nothing better than the nature provide us to live. Go for real natural food that’s the only way of getting all real usable carbohydrates, protein, fat, minerals, vitamins and antioxidants.

Stomach is the mother of all diseases. Irregular bowl movement will cause constipation, piles and many more diseases. For best bowl movement fiber is the excellent food supplement found in natural real foods. No processed foods have fiber in their products. This leads you to indigestion and many more other diseases.

Foods are good in its natural form, natural color and natural texture why processed it to make artificial.

If you are a person who live by eating all these processed foods. You need to choose one thing between life and death.

The post Beware! These Delicious Foods Are Killing You Ever Day ! appeared first on Youngisthan.in.

Eat what you like, seems like a saying long forgotten!

Today, just like many other things, foods that people eat to impress others, especially in social gatherings! Style, class, mannerism and pseudo etiquette are the major reasons behind making fake food choices.

I have noticed people eating and then making a face uglier than a blobfish!

But they eat it, just to appear cool!

You might be one of those who eat one of these 10 foods just to fit-in!

1. Liquor – Vodka, tequila shots, martini, red wine, white wine, and sangria! Well, some might love them, but there are sure shot numbers who have these hip sounding liquors just to be a part of the bunch, no matter how they hate the taste! And how they go on a puking spree after the ball is over!

2. Pasta – Not all love pasta. Sometimes it’s the most bland and boring food, which causes constipation! Yet, it makes you look so cool in friends get-together, right?

3. Black Coffee –..yuck, it’s bitter to hell! But who cares, it makes me look happening, and of the newer intellectual generation! So I am having it!

4. Frappecchino – What exactly is that! The cappuccino that got frapped or the frappe that is having a date with cappuccino? Never mind, the name sounds cool, so I am gonna have it!

5. Sushi – So there are many elite joints that serve BEST SUSHI? What is that by the way, do you even know? Do you like the taste? But you eat Sushi just because your mates have ordered it and it’s in fashion!

6. Green Tea At Work Place – “Ramsevak, mere liye meri wali green tea hi lana, haan!” Yeah, it’s so stylish to ask the office boy for a cup of green tea, while all others are having usual boring chai!

7. Steamed Chicken – The chicken that we love is the “sadda wala butter chicken ya masaaledaar kadhai chicken”! But steamed chicken is healthy and people order it at restaurants to tell “Oh see, I am so health cautious”!

8. Strange Looking Salads – Eat salads and only salads (read leaves) from an otherwise scrumpious buffet menu to say “I need to take care of my figure you see”, and the moment you are alone, gorge into everything eatable that comes in sight! Girls…. Oh Girls!!

9. Expensive Beverages At A Five Star – A small glass of few sips of some drink for 2500/- bucks?? What the hell is in that glass, elixir of life? But some people order it! It makes them look posh! And it makes them bankrupt too!

10. Tofu – “Bhaiya, do you have tofu?” The taste is so yuck, I can have it removed from the planet forever! But I have seen people enquiring about tofu while ordering food at restaurants. Just because it is the paneer of elite class, huh!!

So which one do you have to look cool?

There may be more names that you can add to this list!

All I would say is, eat what you love and eat to your heart’s content! After all, food is what keeps us happy!
