Growing up with the Bam Master “Emeril Lagasse”

“Kick it up a notch!” and “Bam!, and the dish was done with excellence, wonderfully presented and a complete meal. Can the chef be a showman as well while cooking in front of a live studio audience? Yes he did with his unique ability to show you how well cooked meals were not only easy but tasted great; Emeril’s show grasped everyone at homes attention. Being credited with making a change for the good, the “new” foodie experience was now being born. Emeril’s essence is as popular as the show itself the seasoning choice of Emeril is what elevated his dishes to another level of flavor.

So how do we make our own signature flavor to enjoy and kick up our own notch of food? Well with much practice and by trial and error we come up with several basic core ingredients for a “bam” effect for our own savory creations: 2 tbls sea salt, 1 tbsp fresh ground pepper, I tbsp ground garlic, 1 tbsp onion powder- depending on the meat add the following for chicken 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp cumin mix all and a tbsp. of tomato paste ingredients in some butter so that you can spread this over the chicken, these ingredients will create a smoky flavor. For an “herbaceous” savory flavoring add in 1 tbsp. crushed thyme and 1 tsp rosemary and substitute it from the paprika and cumin and tomato paste. You can create a flavor based for all your own dishes as well. Perhaps a flavoring/seasoning above and beyond the traditional seasoning could be a start of a career of my own. “Elevate it” to another level of flavoring by Bijan!?

    Food has been an important part of history from the beginning of time. We as human beings need it to survive, but it also holds developmental, psychological, and cultural importance to us as well. To further explain this theory, John Allen’s book entitled, The Omnivorous Mind, examines how our evolutionary relationship with food reveals both biological and cultural truths. A few of the theories and ideas from Allen’s book were discussed on a Harvard Press podcast. In the discussion Allen mentioned terms and concepts from his book such as, “product of multiple food histories, memory feast, the crispy food concept, and fall back foods” (Harvard Press, 2012).…

    A writing by Michael Pollan, “The Futures of Food”, explains the timeline of food throughout history and the different beliefs on what the future has in store for food. In the past, people viewed the futures of food as everything in one, or a pill. By the mid-1960s, people were well on their way to a “synthetic food future” (Pollan 1). By this point, TV dinners had been developed, and were used by mothers so they were not making multiple meals to please all their children.…

    Michael Pollan’s recent book In Defense of Food offers a new outlook on food today. Unlike many other writers of our time, he discusses the flaws of the nutrionist system we have adopted and encourages his readers to once again follow their familiar family recipes. According to Pollan, we should no longer feel guilty about eating a traditional meal because of its supposed unhealthiness. Instead, we should embrace our roots and cultural cuisine because that is the diet that kept our ancestors alive and healthy, unlike the “scientifically proven” Western diet of today that is causing mass obesity epidemics and other health problems.…
