Talking about food is one thing and delving into regional cuisines with interesting food references is another. For someone who loves reading about food, it was a sheer pleasure to come across these amazing women who chronicles food techniques and talk about lost recipes like never before. They instil in me the passion I have for food, only deeper, so much so that I had to share their work with people who're looking to understand our culture better through food. Here are my top 8 food creators who'll make you fall in love with regional recipes and techniques:

1. Deepa- Paticheri

If you're in awe of good photography, great stories and food references, Deepa ticks all the boxes. I'm fascinated with her imagination and the way she lures me, keeping me hooked to her next post. Her simple recipes are a delight to watch and they further intrigue me with the stories behind each of them, whether it is an ingredient or a technique. She doesn't stick to one particular cuisine and that brings out the versatility on her page.

2. Saee Korrane- Skoranne

From writing a beautiful book, Pangat, which I thought was the best introduction into the world of Maharashtrian cuisine for me to her Instagram page, she helped me understand the different regions of Maharashtra and its varying flavours step-by-step. With her posts, she takes you on a journey with her experiments that highlights local produce and some of Maharashtra's lesser known recipes (that are not in her book btw). Her simple, easy-to do recipes in the highlight section, where she uses what she has in her pantry, transforming it into a wholesome meal is quite irresistible to not give it a shot.
