jokomp3.blogspot.com - There is nothing like a challenge that motivates me. As if life is not hectic already, there is another thing to add spice to the whole thing. After having so many cookbooks, filed paper clippings, I thought I should browse through them more than anything else. My collection is about 3 huge files, two draw full of cookbooks, and about 4 hand written dairies.
Of course there is a chance that some content might be available, but finding that and crosschecking is not the objective of this event. We simply go by what we have stored over years!
In fact some wanted to know if they can do recipes showed in the Cookery shows, of course many cookery shows have their content online. I guess we can go by the intent than actual content here.
Anyway for the first edition I had planned for something different. But with things not working as planned, I had to end up making this simple curry for lunch.
Check the Cooking from Cookbook Challenge and join us if you are interested.
For the first edition, this is a typical side dish made with Tamarind rice, from a paper clipping dated a decade back.

This led the new event Cooking from Cookbook Challenge.
I am lucky in having friends, who not only motivate me, appreciate my madness, but join my ventures as well. So when I announced this challenge, I had a ready group who were as enthusiastic as I was on this theme.
The theme is very simple. Atleast for the initial stage, we are only going to cook offline content and stuff the net with more information.
So it can be cookbooks, paper clippings, hand written recipes, recipes passed from generations, anything and everything, only condition being it's not available online.
Of course there is a chance that some content might be available, but finding that and crosschecking is not the objective of this event. We simply go by what we have stored over years!
