Pakistan on a Plate is a series of programs capturing the undocumented culinary wonders of Pakistani cuisine. I hope I am able to find partners and supporters who see the value of this endeavour. Almost all societies have documented and celebrated and shared their culinary traditions, in Pakistan we have not. What we have in our public spaces, whether on TV, cookbooks or restaurants/dhabbas are so limited and certainly does not showcase the vast varied and wonderful recipes of what is Pakistani food. it takes time, research,effort, support, interest and access.
Accessing these spaces and recipes are not easy, but I am a foodie and I am curious enough and persistent enough to coax those who are shy, culturally hesitant to share & showcase their food traditions. from their perspectives and from their own spaces. it is important to experience it unfiltered. authentic!
Archiving and recording is essential in any given society. Pakistan on a Plate is one such venture and adventure. Wish me luck and hopefully together we can explore and enjoy Pakistan's culinary adventures!
