I’m pretty much just inspired by seeing people I care for happy and full, everyone is happier after a home cooked meal, and it’s a treat to watch them enjoying themselves around my table.

i like to cook things that have layers. layers of flavors, or different techniques – especially if it takes time and it changes slowly as it passes. my stomach tells me what flavor it desires and i find a way to cook it that captures my interest. i like the feeling of acting by instinct in the kitchen, in the cooking zone. i get really great ideas just from pictures of food – and then reverse engineering it to figure out what steps create it.

Pictures are what inspire me. Give me a cookbook or magazine with the picture and I’m heading into the kitchen!

My cooking is inspired mainly by my parents. My mother is an excellent baker – I grew up learning how to bake cookies and cakes and breads and desserts, and to this day I think I actually enjoy the process of baking more than I do eating the end results. And my dad, who loves to cook savoury dishes. He’s of Italian heritage, and was born and raised in New Orleans – so he has such an interesting style and feel for food. Between the recipes that were handed down from his grandmother’s grandmother, and his vast collection of cookbooks, and just his knack for knowing how to combine ingredients to make something magical… he’s my inspiration.

These days I mostly get inspiration from the web. It’s great to know that someone has tried a recipe and liked it, and you usually get to see a picture!
