Br. Pasqual de S.A.

Br. Pasqual: San Antonio, Texas, United States; Br.Pasqual de S.A. is a religious man with a Benedictine spirit who lives and moves, prays and cooks, in San Antonio, Texas. A theologian by vocation and an aspirant chef by avocation, this blog contains his musings on the holiness of food and the foodiness of the holy. As a photographer in love with light, he often photographs what he sees. You’ll also find his pet peeves, restaurant reviews, and theological reflections on food and life and light and God. His religious name was bestowed upon him on his taking of vows as a blogster: Saint Pasqual being the patron saint of Kitchens, Cooks, and Joviality.

Qualifications of the Monastery Cellarer

As cellarer of the monastery, there should be chosen from the community someone who is wise, mature in conduct, temperate, not an excessive eater, not proud, excitable, offensive, dilatory or waseful, but God-fearing, and like a paret to the whole community. The cellarer will take care of everything, but will donothing without an order from the prioress or abbot. Let the cellarer keep these orders.

. . .The cellarer must show every care and concern for the sick, young, guests and the poor, knowing for certain that they will be held accountable for all of them on the day of judgment. The cellarer will regard all utensils and goods of the monastery as sacred vessels of the altar, aware that nothing is to be neglected. Cellarers should not be prone to greed, not be wateful and extravagant with the goods of the monastery, but should do everything with moderation and according to the order of the prioress or abbot. [Chapter 31, excerpt]
