The geometry of cooking

Well, agreed I took the first part of the title from a pasta book. Tyler Florence in Stirring the pot calls for a triangle arrangement of working station,stove and cabinets. My work area is a L shape, with cutting space next to the stove. This book has a very magazine feel with its colour and varying font.
Roll popovers in caramel.
An enthusiast has tried many or may be all recipes from this book. I will stick to caramelized onion and roasted rosemary focaccia.
