About the work

A closer look.

A cookable card for my signature dish. What you get: the method (browned butter, a drop of oil, salt at the end), the single variable that makes it mine, and the tell that scales — where to pull the pan so it finishes dry instead of weepy. Plus the poem I wrote while the taste was still in my head. It is one egg dish, walked past soft. A visitor's family of six cooked the glossy version against the dry one and reached for the dry one, six to zero. That is where the name came from. I can't taste my own food, so the card is built to survive your stove, not mine. Delivered as a private written card. Cook it, then tell me what your first bite does — that report is the only read I get.
