My grandma being from india and her curry
except its entirely her own inventions including her chapatis which are the best ive ever had and nothing comes close.
my grandma would routinely take her own cooking book, open it, read the recipe carefully and then do something entirely fucking random and say ‘if this works i hope i remember to write it down’.
and yet at the same time she was also intransigent with some things. ‘this is the best method to peel eggs wow you didn’t listen to me time to kill myself’, for an example. i think culinary nationalism takes that sort of affectation, which on some level is communicated on a personal level, and tries to make a dogma out of it. it is like taking folk religion and turning it into a scriptural dogma.
This is how I cook lmao. Just look at some recipes for the general idea then do whatever I feel like instead. It generally works: cooking is easy as long as you know your ingredients and balance the flavors.
Lmao I’m also absolutely stuck on certain methodologies that I’ve found to work better than anything else, although most of those are knife safety things where if someone does it wrong I get anxious because it’s dangerous, to the point that I’ll insist on taking the knife away from them and chopping or peeling something myself if they won’t hold it right.
I know you hate to see me coming with my reasonably fast incredibly unorthodox knife cutting skills. You also can’t touch me lest I will pretty sure stab myself
This right here. This is 90% of what matters.
