I think when dishes have a certain amount of acidity, really they are very alive. And I love things that are alive.
Quote by -Jose Andres
Even today with the public's growing interest in food and diet issues, politicians rarely include food as part of their political platforms.
Quote by -Jose Andres
Pimenton gets its intense flavor because it is dried over wood smoke. You can try hot, sweet or bittersweet, though sweet is probably the most commonly used.
Quote by -Jose Andres
For food to be romantic, it should be light. Too many times people plan a romantic meal, and the food is too heavy.
Quote by -Jose Andres
When I came to El Bulli, right away I knew I was becoming part of something incredible. It was like watching the Big Bang happening right in front of me.
Quote by -Jose Andres
I started culinary school at a very young age, and really I wanted to be out working, cooking, more than I wanted to be in a classroom. You could say I wasn't a very good student - I wanted to be a student of life and experience.
Quote by -Jose Andres
If you want to keep your side dishes warmer than room temperature, consider buying a small steam table for the home, with the Sterno cans underneath.
Quote by -Jose Andres
The first time I saw America was from my perch on the mast of a Spanish naval ship, where I could spot the Statue of Liberty reaching proudly into the open, endless American sky.
Quote by -Jose Andres
People ask me in Europe, when they do interviews... they ask me, 'Well, how does it feel to be a cook in a country that doesn't know how to eat?' It always touches a nerve, because Europe and the world think that America is no more than bad hot dogs and bad burgers.
Quote by -Jose Andres
The federal government spends about $2.51 per child per day to feed them lunch. Out of that, you have to pay for labor, facilities, and administrative costs, leaving about a dollar for food. Imagine trying to feed yourself a nutritious meal every day with only a dollar. Very difficult.
Quote by -Jose Andres
Chefs are at the end of a long chain of individuals who work hard to feed people. Farmers, beekeepers, bakers, scientists, fishermen, grocers, we are all part of that chain, all food people, all dedicated to feeding the world.

Quote by -Jose Andres
Food and the way we grow it and produce it are a major cause of environmental degradation.
Quote by -Jose Andres
As a chef and as a father, I am very upset by what's on the menu at most schools: chicken nuggets and tater tots and ketchup and pizza.
Quote by -Jose Andres
Everyone should wake up and have a fresh-squeezed orange every day. By having a fresh glass of orange juice with American oranges, you are supporting the local economy, you have all the vitamin C you need in a day, and you support the environment because you don't use any plastic from bottles or bags.

I was very impressed with the street food of Singapore. I was very impressed with the dishes that they did.

Iberico de Bellota is best when cooked medium rare with a nice, pink center to allow the delicious acorn-infused flavor to come through.
Quote by -Jose Andres
Puerto Rico is the perfect meeting place between Spain, the country I come from, and America, the country where I now belong. The meeting point of two worlds where magic can happen.
Quote by -Jose Andres
A plancha is just a hot flat surface. So if you think about it, anything is a plancha, like a saute pan or a griddle. A la plancha is the perfect way to cook for a crowd.
Quote by -Jose Andres
I remember that at the beginning of the month, the kind of menus my mom and father would prepare for us would have fish, chicken. But at the end of the month - because my father would be waiting for paycheck - the refrigerator would get empty. I remember that without a lot of food left, some of the best meals happened right there.
Quote by -Jose Andres
I eventually settled in Washington, where my partners and I have been fortunate to build a restaurant business that now employs thousands of Americans across the country.
Quote by -Jose Andres
I am from Spain, but my family and I have made America our home. For the last 17 years, I have been cooking Spanish food in Washington, D.C.

My love for artichokes comes from when I was very young. My mother and father would slice the hearts and fry them, and they would be crispy around the leaves and tender at the base.
Quote by -Jose Andres
I love cooking for the sake of understanding how people before me used to feed themselves, used to feed their families.
Quote by -Jose Andres
My family and I cook at home almost every day together. The kitchen is the central and most important room in the house; it's a great way for us to connect. We love going to the farmer's market on Sundays as a family and choosing the ingredients together.
Quote by -Jose Andres
The only way to have a better world and end poverty is by closing the gap between the top and the bottom.

When you use a simple gelatin like collagen, you can get flavor that is 100 percent pure, maybe event 150 percent.

Quote by -Jose Andres
I love to talk about cooking and recipes, but I love as much talking about how food and cooking can change the world.

Quote by -Jose Andres
I don't believe in traditional company structures because the best ideas do not always come from the top.
