1 In which I try to impress the New York Times with tilapiaThe most important meal I ever cooked was grilled tilapia. Sometimes, I would remember that meal and freeze with horror in the middle of a busy street. All through this blizzard, while the arctic wind bit at my ears, I ate ice-cream. As a food writer, I was still deep in a vision of food, and cooking, as an escapist haven. But that pizza across the Atlantic shook me free of that happy delusion; I realised how political food could be.
