Since my parents took us out to dinner nearly every night, i had very little idea of what "homecooked" was like. i think this is part of the reason why i've become fascinated with cooking, but to this day i still struggle with the difference between trying to make something that is truely "homemade"--which is that idea you are getting at here: simple, well crafted, made from items of quality--and more flashy or difficult dishes that seem more like a restaurant. i've only just recently started to realize that i don't need to do difficult techniques or have expensive ingredients in order to have good food, and in fact that almost gets in the way of the good food.<BR/>not sure if there really is a deeper point here, but i think it's still an interesting idea: we know that we are far from our roots as simple people, but what is it getting us?<BR/>thanks for the thinkings.aithonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06106573458688289797noreply@blogger.com
