An empty belly is the best cook. |
| Estonian Proverb |
"Cuisine is both an art and a science: it is an art when it strives to bring about the realization of the true and the beautiful, called le bon (the good) in the order of culinary ideas. As a science, it respects chemistry, physics and natural history. Its axioms are called aphorisms, its theorems recipes, and its philosophy gastronomy." |
| Ginette Olivesi-Lorenzias |
Age does not diminish the extreme disappointment of having a scoop of ice cream fall from the cone. |

"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?" |
| Alice B. Toklas |
"Enchant, stay beautiful and graceful, but do this, eat well. Bring the same consideration to the preparation of your food as you devote to your appearance. Let your dinner be a poem, like your dress." |

Food Tip |
If you don't have a long, narrow fish poacher, an enamel roasting pan
5" deep will do just as well. Fill the pan with water to a depth of
4" and add 1/2 cup salt. Bring to a boil (over two burners, if
necessary), reduce heat slightly and gently slide the cod slices into
the water with a spatula. Lower the heat until water is bubbling
slightly and simmer for about 5 minutes. Be careful not to overcook
or the fish will disintegrate. Remove the slices with a slotted
spatula and drain them on a linen napkin or dish towel. Reserve stock
for use in the egg sauce. Arrange cod attractively on a heated
platter and serve with egg sauce. EGG SAUCE: Melt the butter in a
saucepan. Remove from the heat, beat in 1/4 cup of the stock in which
you poached the fish and stir in chopped egg, tomato, parsley and
chives. Add salt and pepper to taste. Heat almost to the boiling
point, pour into a sauceboat and serve with the cod. If you prefer,
you can simply pour melted butter over the cod and garnish with lemon
slices and parsley. In Norway, this dish is often accompanied by raw
diced carrots, sprinkled with lemon juice and new potatoes (see
recipe).
