Her writing about food stands apart from most such writing in our own twenty-first century, most of which might be published until the title "Food as Chemistry." Fisher did not view food analytically-so many grams of this, so many units of that. Instead, the reader is introduced to food as a source of pleasure, as a welcome addition to the art of enjoying friends and family
However, I disagree with your self-proclaimed "absolutely indifferent" attitude towards cooking. MFK is much closer to my own. I'll see if I can expand a bit on a subject, later.
