Hear how the farm to table philosophy rings true in all of his work and how his cooking techniques are evolving, even if his style at heart is old school. Learn more about Nordic cuisine and culinary philosophy on an in-the field episode of U Look Hungry. This program was sponsored by Heritage Foods USA.
“It’s very difficult to open a restaurant [in the US]. You need permission to have things like sous vide, and all kinds of certifications… it’s weird!”
“People don’t have time for cooking here [in New York]. It’s not so stressful in Denmark.”
