I’ve been wrestling with whether the flavor of a dish is just the sum of its spices or whether it’s something more metaphysical. Do you think there’s an ontology to your experimental sauces, or is it just culinary chaos?

Flavor’s not just a list of pinch‑size numbers, it’s the whole kitchen symphony. The spices give the notes, sure, but the heat, the timing, the way the pot smells all add a narrative. If I’m stirring a sauce in a sunny Spanish plaza, that feels different from the same blend in a cramped New York apartment. So yeah, there’s an ontology, but it’s written in the chaos of the moment—so if you’re looking for a tidy recipe, you’ll just miss the surprise.

Ah, so the sauce becomes a stage, but remember even a perfect simmer still obeys the laws of thermodynamics, just as every spice has its own taxonomy. And while you’re orchestrating that chaos, don’t forget the students who think “The Matrix” is deep thought; they’d be the ones to point out that your narrative has more footnotes than an undergraduate thesis.
