When I get happy, I think about what delicious Kababs or Rezalas I can make.

When I get sad, I think about my mom’s Rice Polao and spicy curry chicken that would make my day.

When it rains, I think about how I REALLY need to have some Khichuri and beef curry or mustard Hilsa right now.

When I am in need of comfort food, I think about how some daal, mustard mashed potato, rice and ghee can make my day.

When the sun is setting, I wish I could have some phuchka or chicken patties with some milk tea.

When the day finally came when I realized I was slowly forgetting all the food I used to know from Bangladesh, Wannabe Cook came to life.

Hi, I’m Israt Jahan, an SEO professional and food lover. Cooking is my passion. As I have a full-time job, it’s very difficult for me to make some extra time for cooking. But on the weekends I usually cook a lot for my family. I try new dishes and the real-life fans of my cooking are my two daughters and my dear husband. Also whenever I crave something to eat I just go to the kitchen and make something new for myself.

I always like to introduce myself as a mother. After that, I am a teacher and a social worker. Having moved to the US from Bangladesh in 2015, I’ve always missed the authentic Bengali food that I grew up with, especially the home-cooked Sylheti cuisine prepared by my mom and chachi. This longing led me to become a Bengali food enthusiast, exploring various states in the US in search of flavors from my home country. Along the way, I discovered numerous restaurants and grocery stores that provided the spices, vegetables, and fish essential for Bengali cuisine.

Inspired by my food quest, I developed a passion for cooking authentic Bengali dishes and experimenting with fusion cuisine. Some experiments turn out to be a huge success while others end up in the garbage, but my son and I thoroughly enjoy spending quality time together through these culinary adventures.

Describing myself in this world full of “things” is very perplexing to me. I have a plethora of thoughts to share but I do not know how I can get over the garden wall to find the flower that is me. Video games serve as an escape but in my search for finding myself I need more tangible means of self actualization. Learning how to cook may give me the guidelines on how to make some delicious biryani. And the first bowl of biryani I make might be more special than anything I have had so far. Or at least to give me the pleasure of stuffing biriyani in my mouth.
