I like to abide by the seasons and let the natural flavor in food speak for itself. I use quick cooking techniques of high heat with very little fat, such as quick saute or wok stir-frying.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I believe in using fresh, high quality from-the-earth ingredients and cooking methods that protect the natural goodness and nutrients of foods, while always maximizing flavor and taste.
The key to a good meal is simplicity and the right seasoning.
I like to cook with the philosophy of using great ingredients and not altering them too much.
I like simple food, seasoned with just salt, pepper, oil and vinegar. Complicated food and complicated lives are never good.
I'm in love with 'pure' flavors, things that are natural and delicious, minimally fussed with, that showcase the season.
I believe in the magic of preparation. You can make just about any foods taste wonderful by adding herbs and spices. Experiment with garlic, cilantro, basil and other fresh herbs on vegetables to make them taste great.
Taste as you go. When you taste the food throughout the cooking process you can make adjustments as you go.
I prefer eating to cooking.
Simple ingredients prepared in a simple way - that's the best way to take your everyday cooking to a higher level.
I love cooking and eating - I'm a total foodie. It started off as a survival thing as a student, when cheese and potato pie was all I could afford to make. My most successful results come from concocting something with leftovers. Any chef will tell you that you should taste as you cook, so I might make it a bit more spicy, yogurty or eggy.
