My first real kitchen was a tiny apartment with a stove that hummed louder than it cooked, and a landlord who swore he’d heard *something* burning every time I turned on the heat. That place taught me patience—how to let flavors develop, how to taste as you go, and that even the simplest meal could feel like a celebration.

After all, the best meals are the ones that bring people to the table, not just the ones that look good in photos.
