Constraint n°094
The Recipe from Memory
Cook a dish from childhood, purely from memory. No recipe, no help.
Think of a dish that someone used to cook for you when you were a child. Cook it from memory alone. No recipe, no phone call, no internet.
Instructions
- Think of a dish from your childhood. Something that someone made for you. Close your eyes and remember.
- Write down everything you remember: the ingredients, the gestures, the smells, the order.
- Go shopping with only this memory as a guide. Buy what you think is right.
- Cook from memory alone. Don't call anyone, don't look anything up.
- Photograph the result. Taste it. Write about the distance between memory and reality.
Variants
After cooking from memory, call the person who used to make this dish. Compare.
Cook the same dish twice: once from memory, once from the real recipe. Taste both.
