Philippe Léveillé, Marco Bolasco
Community in the kitchen
The kitchen as a community is a place where flavors, ingredients and stories meet, where identities and backgrounds mix and contaminate each other, because a pot and stove contain material goods, but often also culture. The teams found in kitchens are increasingly international and interethnic, a bit like what happens with orchestras. And, as Gualtiero Marchesi said, when we play music we interpret a score. Food communities can be made up of producers as well as cooks. Generally, the former depend on the latter, but lately the opposite has also been occurring. Finally, by its very definition, the kitchen produces yet another meeting point: the one that forms around dishes and the table. Here, community takes on the form of conviviality, allowing opportunities for communion that are impossible elsewhere.
