The most vital thing which we need to sustain is food. Foods are two types cooked and non cooked (which eatable in raw). Non cooked food mainly means fruits, some vegetables, dry fruits and others like that. Other than these, all foods need to be cooked. In ancient time only women were involved in cooking. But as time passed cooking become popular without gender bias. Cooked dishes, cooking techniques, cooking mediums were different in different countries. In India food was cooked with spices which are mostly not used in western world.  With the progression of time Indian spices going outside and became popular.

Due to the popularity of this profession in India there are number of magazine, website, newspaper, TV program where anyone can post his or her cooking recipe.

But this year a male one is Champion. This proves that cooking itself has attraction power to attract people towards it.

At the end I like mention one story without which this article can't be complete. The participant named Khuku Patra was a cook in others houses for money. She came in the program. She enters and just mesmerized every one with her cooking skill and techniques. But the interesting fact is that Khuku does not have any traditional educational qualification, even she can't read. Though she is not the winner of the Master Chef but she prepared one after one awesome dish and spellbound the judges who considered many of them were as international standard. Khuku made those with her creative mind. Hope she is not in the profession which earlier she had. Master Chef opens a door and turned her life in a completely new way which leads her to success.

So you can be a chef and spellbound the world with your dish if you have the passion.
