The food must be sanctified during each of the fifteen stages of cooking.
For instance, the spices must be blessed and a specific prayer spoken when
they are used, each spice can only be used once, of course, and in the
correct order. If an error is made, entire meal must be abandoned and you
must begin again from scratch."All generalizations are false, including this one.
