Good Food

"Good cooking does not depend on whether the dish is large or small, expensive or economical. If one has the art, then a piece of celery or salted cabbage can be made into a marvelous delicacy; whereas if one has not the art, all the greatest delicacies and rarities of land, sea or sky are of no avail. - Yuan Mei. 18th Century Chinese Poet in: The Flavor Bible by Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg.
