Thank you for the chapter! Great fun. If I have time later, I'll add a few thoughts to the translator's notes. You didn't get anything wrong (don't worry!) but there's plenty of interesting context for the various food terms.

Another great chapter. There are parallels in the way we talk about food, and the way we talk about art. Both have a "professionalized" and "institutionalized" language that is used to divide specialists from laypersons. People without technical knowledge are excluded from serious discussion.

While this successfully creates class divisions, it also obscures regular perspectives and flattens understanding. Food, and Art, are better when experienced than when theorized. While it's still good to have the vocabulary to describe your experiences, it's harmful to limit descriptions with obscure language that laypeople cannot understand.

It's better to speak clearly than it is to speak fancy. Now shut up, and enjoy your fried chicken!

These days, terrines is a loaf of meat-like substance that's often cooked in stainless steel or even plastic wrapped and sous vided.
