Punk Rock Cooking, Gayle Forman,
GetCrafty.com
Who says cooking needs to involve exact measurements and someone
else’s recipes? Certainly not Gayle Foreman. In
GetCrafty.com, Foreman outlines her own punk rock
cooking style and encourages people to ‘enjoy the creation of food
as much as the consumption of it.’ Foreman also supplies readers
with a list of 10 tips to add some anarchy to their own cooking.
These tips, which range from not being afraid to take risks and
being bold with fruit to indulging your impulses and inspirations
at the supermarket and not stressing out in the kitchen, make for
enjoyable cooking by anyone–be they an amateur or an expert.
Citing glossy cookbook photos and trips to the supermarket as her
muses, and poverty, vegetarianism, and a restauranteur mentor as
her inspirations, Foreman’s descriptions and suggestions will leave
your mouth watering and your stomach aching for a trip to the
grocery store. So, what will you be cooking for dinner
tonight?
