I had a great book when I taught, an international cooking catalog,
with examples of ceramics from all over the world for specific dishes.
I often had an assignment to make a very specific piece for your =3D
favorite dish. It had to be unique.
The book was lost in our move to South Texas.=3D20

The form followed a similar function like the difference between =3D
cream-based soup bowls and broth based soup bowls.
