As she explains, “It sets a scene, forms a plot, arrives at a climax, and ends with a denouement.” Recipes form the basis of edible essays, which start out as instructions and ingredients, but when you mix in personal connections between a dish and your own culinary culture, add a dash of imagery, and stir in the history behind the food, you've extended your recipe into a keepsake a taste memory.
