The cooking fire was once the center of the home. The modern stove has mostly removed fire from the equation, and architectural trends have shunted the hearth off to the side of the den, but the kitchen is still usually where the heart is. It’s where you make holiday meals. It’s where the kids lurk near the fridge and where your friends hang out while you’re checking whether the turkey is done or cutting up just a few more limes for drinks.
