One of the most deceptively desirable things about “modern” living is how fast-paced everything is. Don’t get me wrong. There are days I too crave for the McDonald’s filet o fish burger, fries and that deep fried apple pie… Yet preparing some of the finest dishes requires slowing down, enabling marinade to seep in, allowing juices to ooze out… involves basting, caramelising, reducing, double boiling… Cooking well becomes almost philosophical, doesn’t it?
