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?

The bedspread you see in the picture is MY FAVORITE BEDSPREAD...yellow , with all sortsa cute sea animals on it..
Always, surround yourself with colors you like and especially the bedroom.DO NOT shy away from colors,BRIGHT colors.IMAGINE me sitting on this bed in 2009, over that pretty yellow bedspread, and eating this chocolate mousse and MURMURING to myself, "oh my gosh, this is so good!"
yeah,IMAGINE,do that!

Two Beans Two ways -Vegan sources of protein


This picture was taken by me in 2009 (if memory serves me right).
I went vegan sometime in the second half of 2009.I was ovolactovegetarian prior to that.I have never eaten meat in 33 years of my lifetime.Yet, I managed to grow to my current height which is an okay height for a female .So yeah, We don't need no meat to grow strong and tall.LOL

One of the commonest questions people ask me once they find out that I am vegan is "OH, BUT WHAT ABOUT YOUR PROTEIN NEEDS?"
Well, I am a DOCTOR...and I can assure you that BEANS are the BEST SOURCE OF PROTEIN FOR BOTH VEGANS AND NON-VEGANS ALIKE..
I actually wrote a separate blog entry about PROTEIN NEEDS way back.Please look in archives to find that article.
In This picture I have two different types of beans prepared in different ways.
Variety in cooking methods  helps increase palatability and allows for consumption of a greater quantity of food.

HOMEMADE-Newyork Style Plain Cheesecake

This picture was taken by me way back in 2007.I WAS NOT vegan then.I was Ovolactovegetarian then.
Out of all desserts, CHEESECAKE is one of my favorite desserts.
Buying and gobbling up tons of cheesecakes is just,OH SO EASY...
Attempting to make them just to match your needs is a whole other story..
Most commercial cheesecakes are "TOO EMBELLISHED" in my opinion.
Any topping essentially RUINS the simple classiness of a cheesecake.
Also, people have started  making chocolate cheesecake and other such flavored cheesecakes,which again ruins the simple classy rich taste of a plain cheesecake.
The concept of a cheesecake is all about SIMPLE decadence...not berry toppings and chocolate flavor.If you want chocolate flavor, go eat a rich chocolate cake,why the heck are you ruining cheesecake?...LOL
After much research on cheesecake recipes and cooking techniques, I decided to make my own cheesecake.

I LIKE PLAIN NEWYORK STYLE CHEESECAKE.

In my opinion,An AUTHENTIC cheesecake is BAKED..

I know a lot of people who just put a lot of flavored creme cheese on a biscuit base and freeze it and call it CHEESECAKE...

Well, a frozen anything is NOT A CAKE....essentially..DUH!
I made this cheesecake using a WATERBATH OVEN BAKE technique...
This was my FIRST ATTEMPT AT MAKING cheesecake...AND BOY , IT CAME OUT SO SO WELL...
