Cooking is the creative practice that disappears completely in the moment of its reception — the dish is made, served, tasted, and gone, and the work dissolves into the bodies of those who ate it. This impermanence is not incidental but essential: food as art is inseparable from nourishment, from the social act of the table, from the pleasure that exists only in the present moment of eating. To cook with full creative attention is to accept that the work's highest success is its own complete consumption.
