Contest | "How aware are women about the health of their family?"
👩🍳Do women mostly prefer to cook food at home or get it from the market?
Desi mothers prefer to cook food at home no matter what. They wouldn't allow to bring food from the market, instead they would offer to make your favourite restaurant dish at home.
Brown mothers are obsessed for the health of their kids when it comes to healthy eating.
You would get sick after eating spicy and un-hygienic food from the market, she would say this all the time, and we actually fall sick:(
I also follow the footsteps of my mother and love to make different dishes at home for my family.
Once i made gulab jamun at home using all the organic ingredients. Because home oils are cleans as compared to the market oils for frying, you can also keep minimum quantity of sugar which is good for health.
Additionally, you can make a lot of food with minimum money at home.
However, this trend of cooking food at home is shifting now. There are more working women and fast food lovers females now. They prefer to get food from the market because they simply don't have time for cooking or they don't like cooking.
👩🍳Do women cook food at home so that the budget does not get spoiled?
Yes, cooking food at home is budget friendly. A whole family can eat at home which only a couple of people can eat at a restaurant. With an increasing inflation world-wide it's preferable to cook cheap and healthy food at home.
My mother never allowed us to order food just to satisfy our taste and avoid cooking. We are(us siblings) all grown up so we help our mother in kitchen. We make Dahi Bhallay at home using spices which don't come in packing.
Only thing which we get from the market every now and then is Pakoriyan, though we also make them at home sometime.
Again, working women prefer to order food from cloud kitchens, which might be budget friendly for them.
👩🍳How much do women care about the health of their family while cooking?
Brown women who live in an eastern country, whose roots are deeply embedded in agriculture and farming, they prefer to collect fresh vegetables, and cook food for their family like it's a prayer.
Healthy cooking breaks down into:
- Cooking food properly in a vat and not in a pressure cooker.
- Food which is not deep fried, instead it must be baked, air fried or roasted.
- All the spices used must be organic and local, they must be added in an appropriate quantity.
- Choosing vegetables and whole grain for eating instead of white flour.
I'm so healthy eating freak that i used to make cake at home using wheat flour and Brown sugar instead of white sugar and flour. I had also made Apple pie and cinnamon rolls using wheat flour, my family didn't realise its different taste. They actually liked it, this way they ate healthy food without compromising on taste.
👩🍳Do women like cooking or do they find it boring?
Cooking is an excellent way to release stress and tension. It's an art which releases feel good hormones in a person. Cooking food and feeding others are divine acts.
However, it can become dull and borning when a women needs a routine change. My mother sometimes find it hard to cook, because all of my siblings want to eat different food. Their choices never meet. It can easily stresses out any woman.
When my mother goes somewhere and i had to make food (being an elder daughter) i realise the hard job of our mothers to cook different food each day.
So, when my siblings complain about food, i make it little spicy and they eat it happily.
Cooking actually becomes enjoyable when no one interferes a woman while she is cooking, instead a helping hand is an icing on the cake(every woman likes it).
