A friend of our son’s was at our house and said, “Oh, you have an ingredient kitchen.”
Didn’t know what he meant at first.
“It means you don’t have prepared meals, you have the ingredients to make meals.”
Ah. We don’t have frozen waffles, but we do make waffles from (gluten-free) flour, eggs, baking powder, butter, and milk.
It’s slower to make waffles from ingredients, but you can get exactly what you want. You want blueberries? No problem. Maybe a little cinnamon. Sure.
Today, maybe we’ll make pancakes instead of waffles. If you have the right ingredients, you have flexibility. Plus, single ingredients are healthier. Fresh. Less-processed.
That’s also how you build a great team — ingredients.
I want an ingredient team.
