Chef's Profile

 

 
Thomas Keller

Thomas Keller

Chef, Restaurateur, Author.

 

"Our hunger for the twenty-minute gourmet meal, for one-pot ease and pre-washed and precut ingredients has severed our lifeline to the satisfactions of cooking. Take your time. Take a long time. Move slowly and deliberately and with great attention when cooking."
- Thomas Keller
