A recipe has no soul. You as the cook bring soul to the recipe.

The most treasured things passed down from generation to generation are the Recipes. 


Cooking  is an art I can enjoy. There is a kind of sorcery in all cooking; in the choosing of ingredients, the process of mixing, grating, melting, infusing, and flavoring, the recipes taken from ancient books, the traditional utensils- the pestle  with which my mother made her incense turned to a more homely purpose, her spices and aromatics giving up their subtleties to a baser, more sensual magic. And it is partly the transience of it delights me; so much loving preparation, so much art and experience, put into a pleasure that can last only a moment, and which only a few will ever fully appreciate.


I read recipes the same way I read science fiction. I get to the end and say to myself “Well, that's just Magical”.
