In Praise Of Flavor
What is this thing called flavor? It is something which is both God-given and man-made. Flavor is found in fruits so ripe that the rich juices are almost bursting through their sun-drenched skins. It is found in green vegetables picked while their youth is still an asset. Sun, rain, dew, soil—these are what give foods flavor.
Flavor is man-made when spices and herbs are portioned and combined with so cunning a hand that no one can tell where one spice ends and another begins.
It is man-made when fires are so tempered that their glow cooks flesh or fish or fowl to bring out goodnesses unsuspected by animal or man.
It is man-made when cooking, gentle and long drawn out, blends juices and spice into an unforgettable delight. You may have other definitions for flavor, but when all is said and done it is something in the food that piques the interest and stays in the memory long after the meal is eaten and over with.
