ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

A DECADE OR SO AGO, THERE WAS
A FASHION FOR MICHELIN-STARRED
CHEFS TO PRODUCE THESE INCREDIBLY
COMPLICATED COOKBOOKS.

You know the sort of thing I mean – where following one recipe meant you had to turn to five other recipes to prepare the various stages before you could even begin to tackle the featured dish. It was crazy, and completely failed to recognise that home cooking and restaurant cooking are two very different things.
