The Cook

A ruling peer of the Farmer — one of those who *add* — charged with feeding everyone in the valley so no one ever goes hungry. A girthy woman in a red skirt, blue sash and yellow blouse, dark hair in twin buns. Inventor of the segmented wooden measuring ladle Szeth uses to mash spices in exact proportion, and the only voice from which the Farmer himself does not refuse a meal. SA:WaT:Ch 36
