About this title

Synopsis

Instructions for the Cook itelf is an amazingly charming piece of writing. Dogen comes across as a kind and gentle teacher, reminding us that we should be ever mindful, even in the most dull and mundane tasks. As such, just this alone would be worth the reading. The annotations ranged from helpful to entertaining to useless, but that just seems to be the way of annotation and it didn't get in the way of the charm of the original text.
