✓ 1-What is new for you from the course, any spice or cooking technique or anything that you want to share?
In this course, I’m newly used to dried Thyme, dried Oregano, and dried Rosemary. I never used these spices earlier. This dish has a similarity to our country’s one specific dish but in that dish, these spices are not used. For using these spices for the first time I was a little nervous about how they tasted, did I take the perfect measure of using it any many more. Alhamdulillah the dish was quite delicious and these spices bring a deep aromatic fragrance in the dish which a unique for me. Using these spices in perfect measurement does not overpower the dish.

✓ 3-Is your local cousin has any food that resembles with the shared recipe? (2pts)
Yes, the recipe is very similar to our country’s chicken biryani or chicken vegetable biryani. Mostly in our chicken vegetables biryani, we use various kinds of masala like – Cardamom, garam masala, Cinnamon, sauces, and curd. Through attending this challenge I was introduced to a recipe for Venezuela cuisine which is quite similar that indicate though we are from different countries our tastes are quite similar.
This dish in our country is common in time of winter. In the season of winter in celebration or any get-together this delicious dish we all love to have.
✓ 4- Which flavour or spice do you like from Venezuelan cuisine ?(1pt)
As I said earlier the spice dried Thyme, dried Oregano, and dried Rosemary I used for cooking for the first time and also tasted it which is a new experience for me.

After using these spices in the chicken gives a herbal aroma which is really amazing and I think the spices don’t spoil the taste or even the fragrance of the dish. Rather it enhances the smell so well. Inn Sha Allah in my next recipe at home I’ll definitely use these amazing spices to make my dishes more flavourful.
I don’t want to miss the opportunity to invite some of my Steemian fellows - @saikat01, @memamun, @sadaf02, @safdarali, @shahidalinaz, @sadaf02, @m-princess and to participate in this innovative course and share their feelings with us.
