• What does cookery mean? It means the knowledge of Medea and of Circe,
  and of Calypso, and Sheba. It means knowledge of all herbs, and fruits, and
  balms and spices... It means the economy of your great-grandmother and the
  science of modern chemistry, and French art, and Arabian hospitality. It
  means, in fine, that you are to see imperatively that everyone has something
  nice to eat.

• Give up salt, give up sugar, give up spices, give up vegetables, give up chutnies, give up tamarind. Serve Bhangis, serve rogues, serve inferiors, remove faecal matter. Do not revenge, resist not evil, return good for evil, bear insult and injury. Forget like a child any injury done by somebody immediately. Never keep it in the heart. It kindles hatred.

• He held the book up to his nose. It smelled like Old Spice talcum powder. Books that smelled that way were usually fun to read. He threw the book onto his bed and went to his suitcase. After rummaging about for awhile, he came up with a long, narrow box of chocolate-covered mints. He loved to eat candy while he read, and lots of his favorite books at home had brown smudges on the corners of the pages.

But citrus is definitely kind of my go-to to season and really to really make those flavors, make that food come alive.
