part I introduction
THE ROOTS OF BLUE CHAIR FRUIT

The kitchen has always been my favorite room in the house and the market my favorite place outside. Some of my earliest memories revolve around food: strawberry picking; churning mocha ice cream on our back porch; making butter in the blender; and my favorite of all, the smell of fresh tomatoes in the yard. My mother taught me basic cooking when I was young and then set me free in the kitchen, where I eagerly began exploring. I started dreaming of California after receiving a San Francisco cookbook for Christmas one year. It was largely this book, which spoke of fruits I had never tasted and spices I had never heard of, that taught me to cook, always with my parents encouragement.

I studied French and art in college, spending a year and a half in France and Tuscany by my early twenties. France was a delight: Meals were ritualized and structured, food was beautiful and fresh, and sweet things were always just sweet enough. The markets were awash with perfect, luscious fruit, much of which I had never seen before.

I moved to San Francisco upon receiving my degree, and shortly thereafter began working with food. I spent my off hours browsing at farmers markets and reading cookbooks, always striving to learn more. The sheer numbers and beauty of the fruits available dazzled me. I tried to cook as many desserts as I could, but I found myself practically drowning in my creations. I couldnt possibly hope to eat them all! It was then that I decided to try my hand at jams.

My first batch of jam came from an excellent dessert cookbook, and it turned out well, but it was not exactly what I had envisioned. It was at that moment that I became hooked on jam making. Several years of intense experimentation ensued. I slaved away in my tiny kitchen, gradually developing my own techniques in my quest for perfect results. Over time, I grew to understand fruit. I also, through the course of these several years, formed my own vision of what the ideal textures were for different jams and marmalades.
