More quotes by Wolfgang Puck
I believe that London is the most exciting food city in Europe.
Wolfgang Puck
I like to be firm. But it is easier to be nice than to be nasty.
Wolfgang Puck
I want to teach people how to do it the right way. And it is from that they can teach their children how to do it properly. It will teach them how to cook better and healthier at home.
Wolfgang Puck
When I was 27, if I didn't put 15 things in one dish I wasn't happy.
Wolfgang Puck
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.
Wolfgang Puck
Only you can judge your life. You have to live up to your own expectations.
Wolfgang Puck
What I don't like is breakfast in the morning. I have a double-espresso cappuccino, but no food.
Wolfgang Puck
Thirty-five years ago, being a cook was the same as being a used-car salesman.
Wolfgang Puck
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
Omelets are about technique. Now, different people make it different ways, but, if you're a chef in Europe, an omelet has to be cooked on the outside, with just a simmer of color, and the inside has to be soft. It should be cooked like a steak - medium rare.
Wolfgang Puck
Stay away from iodized table salt. It's just bad and doesn't help food taste good.
Wolfgang Puck
To me, an airplane is a great place to diet.
Wolfgang Puck
I really love Paris. It's my favorite city.
Wolfgang Puck
The usage of proper salt is really just a small piece of education. However, I want people to really get the proper nutrition from food for them and their family.
Wolfgang Puck
One thing I always say is being a great chef today is not enough - you have to be a great businessman.
Wolfgang Puck
Television in the '80s was very limited. There was no Food Network. When I opened Spago, I had the kitchen in the dining hall. It was probably the first restaurant to do so. The dining scene became more casual. All these cooking shows have transformed our profession one-hundred percent.
Wolfgang Puck
When you meet someone, ask about what hobby they have, not what they do. People always ask me about cooking, but I prefer to talk about tennis or boxing.
Wolfgang Puck
Cooking is like painting or writing a song. Just as there are only so many notes or colors, there are only so many flavors - it's how you combine them that sets you apart.
Wolfgang Puck
I think the time of the formal dinners is over.
Wolfgang Puck
My passion for writing cookbooks really came from my love of collecting cookbooks.
