Initially when my fiancee started teaching me bengali recipes, I was confused and frightened to no end. I felt that same as a learner of bengali language, I am going to end up becoming a disastrous cook. LOL. But your recipes and blogs are wonderful!! Savior!!! Probably they are the ones who have given me confidence and made a better bengali cook out of me. Trust me you have kind of become my foster mother for cooking. I thank you from the bottom of my heart and please keep introducing new recipes. <br /><br />Great Job!!!<br /><br />MJAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-71714356697280626132012-12-02T04:29:52.870-05:002012-12-02T04:29:52.870-05:00Just found your blog and wanted to say thank-you!!...Just found your blog and wanted to say thank-you!! For many years I've been in the wilderness, far away from Ma and Baba and slowly losing confidence in my bengali cooking. I now have hope that I can rebuild and regain the little skill I had, and introduce my dual heritage boys to my half of the cuisine they should inherit. <br /><br />Great blog.

You're blog is seriously awesome!...HI Sandeepa!<br />You're blog is seriously awesome! I'm a 2nd generation Indian-American - Bengali, I've lived in Calcutta for some years and your vivid description and anecdotes with each recipe really bring back some cherished memories. What you have here deserves serious recognition - its inspiring and so informative. Bengali cuisine has so many exquisite dishes that are easily forgotten outside of Bengal as there are hardly any places that offer such meals - especially here in the US, so thank you for taking us back to familiar scents and tastes and sharing our heritage so we won't have to wait for mashis and pishis and kakimas and jethimas to give us a taste of home :)Keep up the great work!- Anamikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01296789076920612198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-34139206508866049282012-04-20T21:44:44.258-04:002012-04-20T21:44:44.258-04:00Hi Sandeepa,
