“Every country possesses, it seems, the sort of cuisine it deserves, which is to say the sort of cuisine it is appreciative enough to want. I used to think that the notoriously bad cooking of the English was an example to the contrary, and that the English cook the way they do because, through sheer technical deficiency, they had not been able to master the art of cooking. I have discovered to my stupefaction that the English cook that way because that is the way they like it." |

"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?" |

Food Tip |
* Note: Six ounces raw weight yields 4 ounces ready to eat.
If desired, mix the ground meat with any of the optional additives. These
ingredients do not change nutrient values but do add taste.
Form the meat into four equal-size burgers. Broil or grill about 4 inches
from heat source. "Baste" frequently with water to keep moist (a spray
bottle works very well for this).
This recipe yields 4 burgers.
