Bigger Fish to Fry

A Theory of Cooking as Risk, with Greek Examples

Beschreibung

What defines cooking as cooking, and why does cooking matter to the understanding of society, cultural change and everyday life? This book explores these questions by proposing a new theory of the meaning of cooking as a willingness to put oneself and oneâ s meals at risk on a daily basis, with examples from the author's fieldwork in Greece.
