A week of cooking with Melanie Waxman

A taste of the results of a week spent in the Concord Institute kitchen under the guidance of Macrobiotic teacher Melanie Waxman. The course provided an exploration of foods appropriate to the season, in this case the movement into Spring. Melanie presented a beautifully balanced selection of dishes over the week, and, as always, gave a vivid illustration of the benefits of embracing Macrobiotic principles in your life. She represents an understanding of Macrobiotics which is not about rules and restrictions, but an invitation to develop a natural intuition around food, and enjoyment in preparing and sharing it with others. To enjoy the ‘great life’ which is the literal interpretation of the word Macrobiotics. The bulk of the weeks’ dishes were documented by course participant Yukiko Amatsu, and can be viewed here.
