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.

You can eat an omelet at midnight, at lunchtime, all day long. It's perfect for every occasion.

For example, you can eat a Caesar salad and say, Wow, I ate so healthy today. You forget there was a quarter-cup of oil in there, and all the calories are from fat. So it's better if you eat a grilled chicken breast, some steamed brown rice, and a little salad with balsamic vinegar on top.

It is going to have healthy food and exercise mixed together. With smaller portions, and more exercise, you live a better life.

Stay away from iodized table salt. It's just bad and doesn't help food taste good.

The food could taste amazing however, if you present a plate of misfortunate looking food...you would really question yourself about whether or not you should eat it.

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.

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.

I have two young boys, and my wife is at home. Most of the time, I will cook the food, and we'll eat together.

For me, cooking is an expression of the land where you are and the culture of that place.

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.

I left school when I was 14 to work in kitchens.

It was a revolution, but now it is an evolution. People know more ingredients, people know more techniques, and people look for more ingredients they've never looked for before. In the '80s, you couldn't find raw tuna in any restaurant that wasn't Japanese. Now, you can't find any restaurant without it or sashimi.

I've discussed this with many doctors, and it is just so imperative that people learn how to properly cook food to get those vital nutrients out of them.

It's easier being a judge than a competitor. As a judge, you don't have any risks. That makes it much more enjoyable.

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.

New Yorkers think they have everything, all the best art and music. But really L.A. is a better place.

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

When you have made as many mistakes as I have, then you can be as good as me.
