Cooking with wild thyme, wild garlic or flavoring with wild fennel or sprigs of juniper becomes a sort of spiritual experience which affects the perception of taste as much as the actual ingredients themselves.
As much as I love cooking in the comfort of home, where ingredients and gadgets are limitless, the primal simplicity of cooking over a fire (preferably in the wild) can feel like the absolute pinnacle for someone who enjoys nature and all it has to offer in sustenance both mental and physical.
