Ok here's what I really wanted to say. One has to be so careful of becoming the victim of criteria. My friend's four-year-old son took up cooking. He and his mom made vegetable soup. After the obvious ingredients, she said to him: Now what?
And he replied: Worcester sauce!
And he was right...
And now whenever I make bland soup, I just add Worcester sauce.
I said to him in a pathetically condescending voice: Ah now you'll be able to cook for yourself and make a recipe book.
He looked at me, scrunched up his shoulders and said: I have to learn to read and write first!
I wasn't phased. Hey! you could make a picture cook book and draw the ingredients.
He smiled and left to watch his cartoons!
