it's a evening of radical amazement....
and what if we practiced this everyday, and together? seeing and sensing the wonder of the world in every moment. what would our food taste like and offer us if we ingested that amazement, the miracle of light transmuted into form, which becomes our food?
well, we did a little experiment in that regard, with the Conscious Kitchen we we hosted on the 3rd evening of the Axladitsa Immersion. we visited the edible landscape to see what She would offer... edible flowers, wild herbs to inspire our menu, fresh lettuce from the garden and luscious conversations all the while. our little troupe came back filled with offerings of taste and beauty to make the food & space sparkle with wild welcome.
remarkable patterns of light in the food - the Tree of Life in the cabbage, the perfection of peas in a pod... and the scents and tastes of wild thyme inspired the Take Thyme Salad, wild fennel splashed on the Jeanne D'Arc orange-peel-banana-chocolate Amuses-bouches, the edible flowers on the Sunbeam Salad. and the look of sweet rapture on the faces of the radical chefs and eaters.
this little shift, this little invitation to eat Light and be amazed by the miracles that become of our food, inspired our blessings on the food. no words, just look, see, smell and taste with reverence, in silence.
then dig in!
