The term “gourmet” is typically defined as “purporting to involve high-quality or exotic ingredients and skilled preparation”. The briefer, common-sense synonyms for the word include “fancy” and “specialty”. All things considered, basically this is a term that, to the aspiring cook, suggests the preparation of something extraordinary, such as a spectacular pasta entree, zesty and unusual snack foods, or singularly jubilant cookies or tortes.
You’ve played this game before. You’re laying in your bed in the middle of the night. You can’t sleep so you are staring at the ceiling. Your stomach is rumbling to the point that it sounds like a small dog growling. You’ve drank water and done anything else you thought possible to avoid eating.
Has this ever happened to you? It’s late at night and you can’t sleep, simply because you are hungry and nothing can change that. You’ve done everything in your power you know how to avoid a late night snack run or raiding the fridge.
