I have long believed that truly transcendent food has the power to affect as much as any piece of art, poetry, film, or theater. Our cooking has improved so much in the past 112 days that I have recently been moved to tears on two occasions. Both times our production could not have been more flawless. Our food was seasoned so well that each taste element: sweet, salty, fat, and acid was balanced to perfect harmony. One classmate lovingly observed that she was able to taste individuals' personalities shine in each plate.
Cooking is a dance where, hopefully, many rehearsals lead to an effortless tango with your partner. Sometimes you don't even have to speak, and the other person has already anticipated your next move. It's a beautiful thing.
