Recipes for Travel

For those of us who rank the joy of cooking right up there with shopping at Trader Joe’s and traveling, Susan Spano’s June 13 column (“From Proust’s Madeleine to Trader Joe’s Cereal: Feeding the Hunger of Memory,” Her World) hit a delicious (pun intended) note. I treasure the recipe for pasta with cauliflower sauce from our Roman friend Linda, who gave a sumptuous dinner party for my husband and me. And there is the goulash recipe Adam shared with me in Budapest, where I lunched in a cafe once owned by my grandmother. On that same trip, I learned to love Viennese coffee as much as that brewed from Hawaiian beans, evocative of our visit to the Big Island.
Peeling, chopping, sauteing, brewing, smelling and ultimately devouring the whole process is indeed a memory feast.
