The Soul of Kitchen
The right tools and machines can make a kitchen efficient. But it takes something more to make it sing. Joyce Goldstein, author of Kitchen Conversations and many other cookbooks, and former chef/owner of Square One Restaurant in San Francisco reflects, “A kitchen is wonderful if it looks like people use it—if there are cut marks on the butcher block, if the pots have a few dents, if there are personal containers that hold spatulas and wooden spoons. I don’t like kitchens where everything is store away, there’s nothing in the counter, and it looks like it came out of fancy magazine. I like kitchens where things aren’t too manufactured, where there’s a mixture of pots and pans, and there’s memorabilia around. A good kitchen is a personal kitchen. It emits imperfections”
See? You’re forgiven if your kitchen is a little bit messy. Like mine? hahaha…
