It is so nice to talk to someone that has a passion for food and family.
Wolfgang Puck

I fell in love with food because of my mother. So, I will definitely be sharing and expanding more recipes from my culture (as well as many other cultures), and will be sharing recipes that I have experienced from my whole culinary life.

I grew up so poor in Austria that we never took a vacation with my family.

Image
I won't quit my day job. I like restaurants. I don't do a lot of television, either, even though people come to me with projects all the time. I have to spend time in the kitchen.

I want to teach [people] the secret of great visual presentation. Your stomach sees the food first, and I want to help them match food flavor profiles with the aesthetics of everything.

Food television opened the eyes, and palates, of our guests. They became more adventurous.

Image
I grew up in Austria, and for me real comfort food is Wiener Schnitzel. Wiener Schnitzel and mashed potatoes because it reminds me of my youth... It reminds me when I grow up and it feels very comforting.

What I don't like is breakfast in the morning. I have a double-espresso cappuccino, but no food.
Wolfgang Puck
Image
I like the Japanese knives, I like French knives. Whatever's sharp.

Young people want to be famous before they know how to cook, before they know how to treat people, before they know what hospitality means. I stayed in France for seven years and Austria for three, so before I was a chef anywhere I was already cooking for 10 years.

Nutrition is just so important to me, mostly especially for children.
Wolfgang Puck
Image
I would say that I mostly use Kosher Salt for seasoning my water and flour. I love sea salt, too. I think both are just fine, as long as it's not iodized salt.
Wolfgang Puck
Image
For me, I don't expect to have a really amazing meal each time I dine out. Having a good meal with your loved ones - that's what makes the experience.

People are visual and hands on learners.

The only way to teach people how to truly do it and do it the right way, is to get those ingredients and kitchen tools in front of them and in their hands to use.

To me, an airplane is a great place to diet.
