The Cookmobile posed a challenge, what are my goals for A scientist in the kitchen for 2008?

That caught me off guard. I have been food blogging only since October last year with the intention of writing down my recipes and posting the pictures of the food I have cooked. The picture-taking I have been doing for quite some time. Of course, I have this goal of writing a cookbook on rice recipes around the world. I work for an international organization dedicated to rice research and have met researchers of different nationalities and shared a meal with them. I have learned a lot of recipes from them, hence I hope to be able to write a cookbook on rice.

Anyway, to get back to the challenge…

My goals are simple… to take pictures of the food I cook at home (when I am in the kitchen, and not in the lab) and share the recipes in this blog. Though lately, I have been warming to the idea of writing more about the Filipino kitchen (think dirty kitchen) and traditional Filipino cooking (as far as my exposure to the traditional takes me). More importantly, I am still finding my voice for the blog. Which style am I more comfortable? How can I better express my cooking? 

For now, I’ll take it a post at a time…

Now for the second challenge, what would I like to cook this year? There’s so many to think of that I am drooling already. I can think of two things – paella and kare-kare the traditional way (no peanut butter shortcut!). The recipes will have to follow once I’ve cooked them…
