More Important Than Hurry
Aduro strolling out to meet us as we returned from church and then the Adega. As she always does; she must be on the lookout continually.
And in our usual Sunday routine, picking Bengt up for Sem Fim in a bit.
Capon, ch 7, "Living Water", where he talks about making stock, but first apologises for his various excursions into meat, metaphysics, and metalware:
The feet-on-the-stove stance of this book is a deliberate attempt to cure myself, and anyone else who will listen, of the nasty habit of worrying the world to pieces like a terrier with a rag. What we are up to here is not the hasty shaking loose of a culinary result, but a patient rumination on cooking itself. There are more important things to do than hurry.
Which, I realise, also explains nicely why I've set myself the task of choosing and writing out here a quote per chapter - although I've read the book several times, doing this has slowed me down enough to take in a lot better what he's saying.
