WHAT MAKES ME AN "INFORMED" FOOD BLOGGER

I am CURRENTLY a PRACTICING PHYSICIAN .

However, I did complete TWO YEARS of college studying GENERAL BIOCHEMISTRY AND MICROBIOLOGY, Food technology,Food Microbiology and Biochemistry prior to deciding that I am more inclined to the CLINICAL SIDE of things and hence decided to get into MEDICAL SCIENCE .

I did very well in medical school thereafter and am now a "kick-ass" doctor .

My interest in "Food" and the "Science of cooking" continues to this day and explains why I now have a Food blog as part of my LECINQBLOG family of Blogs

I seek to dispel FOOD FADS, food myths via this food blog.I seek also to increase health awareness by canvassing for healthier diets.

Good chef meets GOOD DOCTOR meets good writer=Informative food blog, no?

Lotus root chips

Okay,some of you night not even be familiar with lotus root , Unless you are japanese or south east asian or east indian.
Lotus root is, well, just that, root of lotus.
You do know what a lotus is, right?
It growns in swampy ponds mostly freshwater. It propogates by tubers which run in the slush at the bottom.
during summers, the ponds dry up exposing these roots, and ofcourse, greedy hungry people dig them out and eat them
I was thrilled to find some at the grocers last week.
made some chips, though i had initially boght them for soups and stews.
ATe up all the chips too .In one go.
You see, I have these deep fried craving once every two weeks. I mostly don't like eating fried stuff, but once in two weeks, i have to eat a batch.
