Love, God, And The Art Of French Cooking ReviewIf you applaud books on spirituality which are fun and light, yet profound, you may appreciate this book. If you believe that conversing about God shouldn't be heavy and pious, the French chef in this book would agree with you.
We all need to find our medium or passion in life as a means to experience joy, discern our purpose and contribute meaningfully to others. The author of this book, James Twyman, stumbled upon Chef Roger Dufau who uses food and cooking as a medium to teach spiritual and life lessons to reach and comfort people. It's Biblically-based as Chef Dufau notes as Jesus used the Last Supper to teach his disciples. Jesus's admonition to feed the hungry is equally paired with his admonitions to heal the sick and comfort the grieving.
When a romantic weekend went awry for Twyman at Chef Dufau's Bed & Breakfast outside Toronto, Chef Dufau's sensitivity intuits Twyman can use some care. Twyman's talks and meals with the Chef compel Twyman to examine his life history, motivations and MO in dealing with others. The author is candid with readers about his flaws and vulnerabilities. We can identify with and learn through his exchanges with Chef Dufau. They even travel to Paris for a luxurious master class with French Chef Alain Dutournier who, at the very least, teaches them about the power of generosity.
A favorite lesson in the book was the lesson of the garlic; sometimes we have to be smashed open like garlic to get at our essence or heart. Haven't we all experienced our orderly life getting smashed to bits which causes us to get humble and quit trying to control or manipulate outcomes? (I've been smashing my garlic ever since reading this, instead of slicing it. It's messier, but more pungent as the chef teaches.) Are we willing to let our lives get messy to learn more about our purpose, or find and follow a new direction?
Another favorite cooking lesson is doing more with fewer ingredients. We often think more in life is more. But as in cooking, the truly great recipes sometimes use fewer core ingredients so you can taste their essence. As in life--what do we need and have that really matters? What is essential for our growth and happiness?
This is a light, whimsical book with deep undercurrents. It may cause you to reflect upon your own life. More books on spirituality which don't preach at you, or make you feel guilty, but teach joyously and creatively as this one does are welcome. As Jesus did with his parables--what a delightful way to learn! This reminds me of a spiritual fable of sorts. Readers who like to read about love, God and French cooking will enjoy this spiritual triangle. Upon finishing this book you may want to make reservations at Chef Dufau's B & B for another course.
