SEC | S13-W3 - “Colors in food.”

Assalamualaikum everyone!

Welcome to the post. Hopefully, all of you will be doing well and enjoying the time with the grace and blessings of Almighty Allah. Today, I'm here to be a part of the week 3 contest in the Steemit Iron Chef community. The topic of discussion for this week is very much interesting, Colors in Food. So, let's start the fun without any wastage of time.

What is the most used color in your meals?

Well, according to me almost all of the colors that are present in the whole universe could be found in the meals. But if I would talk about the most used colors in the meals then it is brown, red, green, yellow and white. These five colors makes almost more than 90 percent of the meals that are eaten in the whole world, or even Pakistan.

From these five colors, according to me the most scene colour in the meals or food items is the brick red or dark brownish colour. I have selected this colour because we know that whenever we cook something, no matter we are frying it or roasting it. That's why, I think these this color is the most seen color in the foods of every country.

Do you consider that colors in foods represent nutrition?

Yes, colours are the most important representatives of different nutritional parts of the food. There are a different colours which are specified for different nutritional elements. Colours give a very attractive and yummy look to the food and if we just imagine any food item without a colour then we will realize that there is no sense of taste which will hit our mind.

The colours is not only make the food attractive and yummy but also add different flavors to the food as well. For example there are some specific spices which are of green, red, white and black colour only. So this colours become the representative of the spices. While, the white color most represents the salty or sweet flavors.

What is your favorite color in food?

I have a lot of favourite colours in the food but the most favourite colour is white which is the representative of sweetness, for me. For examples, the sugar is white, the bread slices are salty or sweet, the egg white is also salty type or so.

Moreover, my favourite dish is biryani which is also prepared from the rice and we know that rice are also white in color. Another thing which is a very important part of my daily food is the milk or milky products like yogurt, butter etc. These are also white in the color. That's why white is my favorite food color.

Shows a meal from the menu of the day and the colors in it.

I have shown my breakfast menu in the above picture which actually consists of the toasted breads and tea. There are three main colors in this menu which are light brown, dark brown and yellow. Light brown is present in the tea while the other two colors, dark brown and yellow are present in the toasted breads.

I would like to invite my friends @kouba01, @waqarahmadshah and @abdullahw2 to be a part of this amazing contest.
