 The
Zen of Food : A Philosophy of Nourishment by
Sallyann J. Murphey (Introduction).
The harvesting of
nature's gifts, the gentle excitement of a subtle spice, the mix
of disparate ingredients into a miraculous whole...preparing a
meal--and sharing it with others--can be an experience that
fulfills us in more than a physical way. Whether it's the raw
pleasure of biting into a fresh apple or the slow heat that
brings to life an artfully seasoned tomato sauce, learning to
appreciate the role that food plays in our lives can offer us a
more contemplative and joyous existence--and let us find the
peace and contentment we've been searching for right in our own
kitchens.
