Once more we delve into the fine art of mimetic, substitutory cooking, this time from the latter war period. Its 1944 and the recipe is back to the original paragraph format.
This cook does not have time to shop, list or procrastinate, but instead is taken straight into the details of the assemblage of the appropriate ingredients... is it tautological for me to point this out once more... we appear to have discovered a trend. However, delight of delights, this author appears to thrive on unusual imagery; ‘a piece of margarine the size of a small walnut’? This really does expand on the stereotypical kitchen terminology.
“Guesstimation” can be seen to be a large part in differentiating between the experienced and inexperienced cook, so images such as this, help to create a bridge between these two cooks.
