Food cravings

I live to eat

That is my life motto and I make sure to live by it. Cooking and eating food gives me such pleasure. I feel so blissful when I take in a mouthful of pasta or tiramisu. Ah! the very thought of spinach ravioli in white bechamel sauce makes me go crazy. I think Italian cuisine is by far the best I have come across till now. Maybe that is due to my strong bias towards cheese.

Another favorite of mine is tiramisu. Wow, the different layers of coffee, cheese and ladyfingers mingling together in my mouth, that is heavenly. I wish I were born in Italy, just for the food.

Another favorite in Italian culinary is their use of tomatoes. Tomato is my favorite fruit, I can eat it any form, any time of the day, any day of my life. I love the red, plump fruit in a thick, creamy soup, or in a salt-peppered juice or in a spicy Indian gravy. And the Italian marinara sauce is just perfect to satisfy my tomato cravings. Cherry tomatoes especially are close to my heart. I love cooking a sauce with cherry tomatoes, it is such a beautiful sight to watch them melt down and blend together.

 

Oh boy, all this writing about food has made me hungry(not kidding !) Just looking at all these pictures of food makes my mouth water :-)

More food cravings to come.. now I m off to satisfy my longing :-)
