I love to roast vegetables - carrots, fennel, and so on. I also love to mash or puree pretty much any vegetable!

Always look for the best ingredients, treat the food you cook with respect, always read the entire recipe first, be organized, and have fun.

Food's delicate. You have to handle it with finesse. You can't just be a big ogre.

I'm not the type of person to eat big hunks of meat. I think people are starting to realize that great things come in small batches.

If you work hard and you learn and you absorb and you pay attention, career in food is great. This job can take you all around the world. You can eat the most delicious food. It allows you to be creative.... [And] don't ever quit. It's going to pay off eventually. It might not be in a year. Might be 20 years or 10 years. But you have to keep pushing. Just have that fire, have the passion, and want to be successful. And don't listen to anybody else.

I adore pigs, and I love eating them and cooking them, and I love using the whole animal.
