Shalmali Kholgade on World Baking Day: Baking is a great distraction for me, love making banana cake
'I have a massive sweet tooth. So, baking was a natural progression for me. It is also a great distraction. It helps me focus on something other than work,' says singer Shalmali Kholgade, as she bakes a banana cake while shooting for HT City on World Baking Day today. Shalmali, who has songs such as Lat Lag Gayi (Race 2), Balam Pichkari (Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani), Daaru Desi (Cocktail) and Pareshaan (Ishaqzaade) to her credit, says her creativity as a musician enhances when she gets to working on a song after baking. 'Whenever I have a free day, I bake. It helps me relax and recover from a hectic schedule. On those days, I'd pull up an old recipe or try a new one I saved on Instagram. Banana bread is my all-time favourite. The one I make often is a 5-ingredient, no flour, no added sugar recipe that also fits into my diet as an afternoon snack. It doesn't require any elaborate equipment, hence is quite convenient to bake,' says the singer, who takes to baking, knitting or art for stress relief. Bachpan ki yaad The singer goes on to share how her love for baking crops from her fond childhood memories of baking a cake with her aunt. 'When I was in school, my aunt lived with us. She would often bake carrot cake and that was the highlight for me. I would sit on the dining table and whip eggs or sift the flour or grate the carrots and just wait impatiently for the cake to come out of the oven. I also loved licking the remnants of the cake dough that didn't make it into the oven. I would never have the patience to wait for the cake to cool down after it came out of the oven.'
