If you're a really good cook, you can go back in time.-Roland Henin in The French Laundry Cookbook
Tradition cannot be inherited, and if you want it, you must obtain it by great labour.
-TS Eliot, "Tradition and the Individual Talent"
In 2011 I'm cooking a series of dinners, roughly one every month, under the auspices of the Button Soup Supper Club. There is no formal club: the dinners vary from a private family meal on a particular Tuesday evening, to large and boisterous celebrations among friends. They all, however, have been designed to explore seasonality beyond ingredients. The meals all have special significance to personal or regional heritage.
The January dinner is next week. I'll explain further over the next few days.
