Cooking is a hard job and sacrificed, how do you do to saturate?
I tried to find different ways of relating to food, just to not saturate. I like working, I enjoy cooking, but the restaurant's office for many years requires a special temple. The trip changed my way of working, are stressful, but enrich and decompress.
How old grabbed your first knife? Eight
roughly cut potatoes Baked them at any time of day.
Is the kitchen requires more technical or more inspiration?
depends where and when, if you do an event for five hundred people require 90% of technique, if you have to cook with what you find you need one hundred per cent inspiration.
In your programs at the same kitchens recommend any rock band or a particular song. How is your relationship with music?
I have many musician friends for 16 years I was an only child, and the music was an important part of my world as a child, and I think it went well naturally. I am convinced that Life is better with music than without it.
Argentina Although geography is different from Peru, I would like to hear your views on GM crops.
is a very complicated issue, and we are very uninformed. There are many types and reasons, but what worries me most is the 'traceability', we have the right to know, to choose what we consume. And another issue far more worrisome is that over 85% of the patented seeds belong to the same company. We are so helpless that is scary!
See you cook and eat everything. Are you afraid of fat?
fattening and low, medium build I have never worried me too. Sometimes I try to take care of myself, to have room for a trip that is planned, but in general there is an issue that worries me.
Do you think that gluttony is a sin?
I do not see things as sins, but I think greed is not good. Neither the body nor the spirit.
What time does your routine?
varies a lot, I wake up between 8 and 9 in the morning, sometimes a little later, hopefully.
What is the most stressful time in a kitchen?
And when something is staggering, when it is out of control. You see it coming, but it is precisely here that we must stay calm, cool head to think and act.
And the most dangerous?
When someone is too tired or out of work. Accidents happen by excesses in general: poor sleep, poor concentration. It is important to rest.
What ingredient can not do without?
of salt!
in Peru are called "gastrosexuales" (the chefs hate the term, and rightly so) to this new wave of young chefs, handsome, doing sport, the physical care and his hobbies include gourmet extra. How do you fit in this topic?
Ha ha ha, did not know the term! I think I always had everything, only now we on TV and in newspapers. I care more about what you say and do a cook, who like to dress or if you like tennis ...
I have the impression that the West is a trend for kitchens Orientalize author. Do you think East is a similar trend in reverse?
Just that I talk to people in Mistura, I think it's much deeper than Orientalize or vice versa. What lies ahead is something very interesting coming from East. Until now only we mix and experiment with our vision. After so many years, we began to see the response, eg Japan, Korea ...
What ingredient, product or dish has impressed you lately?
Vietnamese cuisine, wines and freshness of its dishes. I ate his food every day for over a month, and my body never felt better.
What are your expectations with Mistura 2010? Many
expectation. First of all eating rich, try the places, meeting other chefs, students, exchange. I have a feeling I do not know why, you can gestate something interesting, large, in Latin America.
