You've written very passionately here on this Q&A about cooking and eating roast chicken and pork belly. Thank you for that.

Is there a project, whether a book or a dish, that you feel so passionately about doing but haven't yet? Some elusive and perfect thing? What whould you really really love to do?

That's a really interesting question, because I don't have an answer. I'm doing the stuff I care about, that I love, such as writing about pork belly and sausage and duck confit, and about the classics of French peasant food such as onion soup and how to perfect it. I think I'd like one day to write a book about the basics of cooking as I've learned them and an exploration of cooking ratios, because to me that's the essence of cooking and getting to the essense of something you love is a great goal any way you look at it.
