Nowadays, with a snap of our fingers, the world lies at our feet. Thanks to the Internet and social media, connecting with people from different parts of the world has become rapid and exciting.
Since communication has become so convenient, many people have started using social media as a platform to earn their living. These people who earn their living by influencing the masses via the internet are called Influencers.
Many influencers dedicate their careers to food and everything related to it. Food blogging, influencers who teach cooking, etc., are prime examples. So, if you want to learn a recipe or find the ingredients of a dish, you now know the way!
So, if you are a person who cannot say no to food and cooking in any form, this is for you! As I’m sure, all of us have a certain inclination toward a certain cuisine like I, for example, love Mexican cuisine. But, in this era of modernization, we can just whip up our phones and search for a good recipe to make.
Finding good recipes that are easy to make and yet maintaining the cuisine’s authenticity is very hard. Especially if you love Indian cuisine. Indian cuisine has its own charm with having so many dishes under its belt. Moreover, with India being a country wherein each state has its own different cuisine, the Indian cuisine is filled with varied taste dishes. For example, we have the spicy Vada pavs for Maharashtra, while the southern part of India is famous for its dosas, idlis, rasams, etc.
If you go on to explore this cuisine, it might take you a lot of time, considering there are 28 states in our country. So, if you love this varied mixture of tastes, and cuisine, finding good recipes might not be hard enough for you. But what can be hard enough is to get an easy, hassle-free recipe that will get the same authentic taste.
Not everybody can acquire the same Desi authentic taste in their dishes. With substitutes coming up for each and everything, many cooks, to get an easy way out, use them and are henceforth not able to acquire that taste.
But some are capable of it, in both using substitutes and still getting the taste and also by not using a substitute, just a desi hack that makes their dish easier and hassles free to make.
So, with that, here are the top Indian food bloggers that you should follow if you love India’s exotic and mouth-watering cuisine and can’t wait to try them yourself.
