Death to the recipe?
Mark Pallis insists, after an epiphany on a beach in Africa, that recipes are no longer relevant. As at least one commenter says, he seems to be mistaking a barbecue for a philosophy. Most of the food I make is improvised following a simple rule- get some good ingredients and go with it- but there are also a few dishes where I will always refer back to the instructions for at least some guidelines. The trick isn't to pretend you don't need Delia et al, but to work out where you can deviate from their schemes.Technorati tag: Food, Recipe
