  • Ever since chef Nancy Silverton fell in love with Italian cuisine 33 years ago, she has never stopped being curious about it. Living in Umbria for half the year and California in the other, she constantly brings new ingredients, dish ideas, and cooking techniques back home to her popular restaurants around California - one of which has a Michelin star.

    One day many years ago, my husband and I were driving back from San Francisco, eating Acme bread, and lamenting the lack of good bread in Los Angeles. Nancy Silverton changed all that, with La Brea Bakery. Then, she changed the face of pizza in Los Angeles, with Pizzeria Mozza. Whatever she turns herself to, becomes solid gold. I think that she, and Jonathan Gold, forever changed the food culture in Los Angeles.

    If you import your mozzarella, yes, it will deteriorate, and will never be the same as the one you eat in Italy. But if you get it from a local water buffalo farmer, in California (or wherever you live), then yes, it can be similar, equivalent, or even better depending on what you're comparing.

But these professional chefs are just obsessed with teroir and being able to say "this is from italy and this taste could ONLY come from italy" so at that point, they'd have to import.

      It’s a generational thing, most chefs over 50 have the mentality of “imported & expensive is always best”, while chefs under 50 have the mentality of “local is always best”. Gordon Ramsay vs. René Redzepi.

      @@gab.lab.martins The problem is that it is difficult to find quality products in the US. This is the reality - agricultural practices are so industrialized and poorly executed that most food really is trash in the US. I'm sure you can find good buffalo raised in fields with healthy grass, but its certainly a rarity. Youve had chefs looking to do top quality food concepts that had to spend years looking for vendors before they finally opened their restaurant the way they wanted it to be. Also, she is in LA. LA already has massive amounts of imports from all over the world coming in. Still, its too bad the US destroyed much of its farmland and killed so many of its buffalo.

    Her careers and achievement for California cuisine are amazing, hands down a great Chef and restauranteur. What I just found so arrogant about Americans is the fact she is so in love with Italy, own a house in the country for the last 30 years and haven't taken the time to learn the language. To actually be able to understand Italy, their culture and food you must speak Italian, so much get lost in translation that is a shame.

    • @ADick-qp6se
      @ADick-qp6se 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I try to learn at least a few words or phrases even for the shortest trip to another country. I also can't understand why she was too lazy to learn the language after that period of time if she is so passionate about Italy.
      But I don't think it is a typical American thing. I heard and seen same about Russians and French people. And have you seen the series about the Sushi masters in America from Eater (Omakase)? No chef is speaking englisch, 99% japanese.

Australian, Kiwis, Brits, Irish take the time and effort to learn at least basic or advanced level of the local language. I can speak 5 languages, that is why I said that there is so much that is loose in translation. She is "so in love" of the country that can't learn the basics?
