I feel uneasy about the whole edifice that has built up around cooking....I smell something bad...you know the odour that starts to build up in the fridge as food starts to slowly rot....that's your call it's your prep...it's your bonus. When do you decide it's shit..when the taste is compromised or when it's a health hazard...or maybe you don't give it a dam or worse your scared?
Food is just food right?...wrong It's big business...which correct me if I'm wrong means the producers interests are paramount and every thing boils down to a formula.I'm not against development,change or evolution...but I am against extinction and lack of diversity....I'm against having my options taken away....if one day I decide I want to learn Aramaic....I don't want to find it's extinct.
Cooking must be rooted in a particular landscape...and the people that live on that land...only then does it really provide true nourishment.To loose the connection between the food we eat...the land,the seasons,cooking is to upset an important rhythm...to put things out of balance..to loose our freedom.
