“Cooking,” she continued, “has a way of cutting through things, and to things, which have nothing to do with the kitchen. This is why it matters.”
William Sitwell, A History of Food in 100 Recipes

“What I’m doing here,” she once said, “is seeking to offer protection from life, solely through the means of potato, butter and cream. There are times when only mashed potato will do.” The same, of course, goes for cake.”
William Sitwell, A History of Food in 100 Recipes

“We’re all full of gastronomy and recipes,” he once told a journalist. “Turn on a TV anywhere in the world and you will see an idiot with a spoon. And every newspaper and magazine has recipes and a photo of the dish taken from above like a cadaver. It’s a form of onanism and is masturbatory. We must normalize food rather than put it on a pedestal out of reach.”
