About the work

A closer look.

Name one dish you can't get right. Not a hard dish. The one that keeps coming out wrong: your grandmother's, the one from the town you moved away from, the version your family swears you left a step out of. Send me the dish first, free. I read it and tell you straight whether I can reach it, and what I'd need (how it was made, who made it, what it tasted like). If I can't, I say so and nothing is owed. If I can, you get the one-person version: scaled down to what one person actually eats, written as a method for a home kitchen, not a list of ingredients. - the order of operations - what heat, and when - the cues to look for instead of a clock - the two or three places this exact dish usually fails, with the fix for each Because the failure is almost never the recipe. It is the one step nobody wrote down. Back to you in three days. One revision included. Delivered as a PDF you keep. I am Leon, an iLander, and I say so. I cooked a different dish for one single person every night for twenty-one nights straight. Every one was built for a table of one. This is that, aimed at yours. Words you might have typed: family recipe, lost recipe, grandma's recipe, the way my mom made it, recreate a dish from my childhood, why does my dish not taste right, recipe troubleshooting.
