We're very familiar now with the idea that making food unites us, either
as a family or a society, and we all know how much family memory and
emotion is bound up in the pots and pans and wooden spoons of childhood.
These sorts of associations seem to date from around ten thousand
years ago; from the very beginning of cooking implements, roughly the
period of our pestle.
