I know I haven’t posted a recipe in some time now, but I’ll be back soon, I promise. I’ve been busy doing life things and obviously time is speeding up as a month now feels like a week. Enough excuses though, I plan to post at least one new recipe per week from now on.
I also plan to start a newsletter, become more active on social media, and generally make GoodFoodRecipes.com a whole lot more useful to people. For now though, here’s some quotes by famous chefs on food, cooking, and life!
- If you want to become a great chef, you have to work with great chefs. And that’s exactly what I did.
Gordon Ramsay - Anyone who’s a chef, who loves food, ultimately knows that all that matters is: ‘Is it good? Does it give pleasure?’
Anthony Bourdain - I sometimes think the chef end of cooking is not the real end of cooking. Cooking is all about homes and gardens, it doesn’t happen in restaurants.
Delia Smith - Keep it simple in the kitchen. If you use quality ingredients, you don’t need anything fancy to make food delicious
Curtis Stone - When a chef tells me he is cooking with his grandmother’s recipe, I always wonder why. Did talent skip the past two generations?
Nathan Myhrvold - You don’t have to be a chef or even a particularly good cook to experience proper kitchen alchemy: the moment when ingredients combine to form something more delectable than the sum of their parts.
Erin Morgenstern - I don’t like food that’s too carefully arranged; it makes me think that the chef is spending too much time arranging and not enough time cooking. If I wanted a picture I’d buy a painting.
Andy Rooney - This is my advice to people: Learn how to cook, try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless, and above all have fun.
Julia Child - A great chef is first a great technician. ‘If you are a jeweler, or a surgeon or a cook, you have to know the trade in your hand. You have to learn the process. You learn it through endless repetition until it belongs to you.
Jacques Pepin - If you’re not the one cooking, stay out of the way and compliment the chef.
