The less you do to beautiful food, the better it's going to taste. You don't need to mess with it all the time.

We've gotten so far away from our food source. It's been hijacked from us. But if you get soil, plant something in it and water it, you can feed yourself. It's that simple.

The industrial food system ships in high-calorie, low-nutrient, processed food from thousands of miles away. It leaves us disconnected from our food and the people who grow it.

If I am honest, my food is actually quite far removed from both the food of my mother and my father.

First and foremost, food needs to be delicious. It should pop and explode with flavor. Food should please all the senses.

I have a terrible tendency to lick my fingers when I cook. So much so that I got a telling off from my pastry teacher years ago, who said it would hinder my prospects.

My aunt and uncle would come over when my mom was making this, or we would go over there when they were making that. That's what food is.

Just know what's inside your food.

Finishing food is about the tiny touches. In the last seconds you can change everything.
