What do Food Writers Really Eat?

At some stage, almost all of my cooking finds its way into my writing. When I write cookery books, I write the recipes that I have cooked at home. I do not cook my way through the vegetable chapter, the pasta chapter, the fish chapter, and so on. If neither of us likes what I have cooked, I probably never cook it again, and I certainly never write about it. I was very pleased to read that Marcella Hazan writes her cookery books in the same way.
