It’s not a masterpiece [and I haven’t even tasted it yet], but every cooking project you take on affords you multiple openings for a creative act.
Just think of all the choices I had to enhance this bread’s flavor and appearance.
Knead in some za’atar.
Dot the dough with chunks of fontina.
Try a new slash/score design.
Not convinced life in the kitchen isn’t for creatives?

My favorite excerpts
— “Due to the lack of consequences in the kitchen, you’re able to defeat fear: fear of criticism, fear of inadequacy, and fear of failure.”
— “It’s a space waiting for you to experiment, explore, and discover new flavors, methods, and recipes.”
— “The kitchen provides you with a set of tools, but leaves it up to you on how to use them to get your desired result.”
Dotting dough with fontina chunks sounds creatively yummy! What about trying it with Gouda? Or aged cheddar? 🧀🍞🧀
