Home cooking
Germany
104 dishes, kept by 3 cooks who put their own weeknights on the shelf.
The Germany shelf
What Germany cooks when it is cooking for itself.
One catalog, seen from one kitchen. The shelf opens on what households here cooked this week and closes on what gets made in twenty minutes, because that is what a weeknight actually looks like.
