I recently had the privilege of interviewing Bobby Flay about his new book.

Liz: Here in the Midwest, we have lots of very comforting food. Our cooking style is very comforting. I’m wondering, in your opinion, what cooking style has the richest history.

Bobby Flay: The richest history?

Liz: Yes.

Bobby Flay: You mean in terms of American food or from a global standpoint?

Liz: Worldwide. Food always inspires us, the history of the food, where it comes from, and the different techiques.

Bobby Flay: –Yeah. I was taught basic French technique, which is really the foundation of almost all cooking. Maybe not Asian cuisine, so to speak, but basic French technique, if you’re able to learn that, than you can sort of derive into every corner of the world in terms of what their cuisine is. It’s the basics of cooking. So I would say French for sure. But the world is an ever-changing place. If you take the United States for instance, the Midwest or the Southwest, or the Northeast or the Pacific Northwest, or places like the South or even the Southeast, places like Louisiana; every corner of the United States alone has its own culture. Then when you leave the country, of course, every country has its own food culture. I say eat the food of the people and you learn who they are. I think that food and the connection to who people are, are very closely related. To answer your question, I would say France.

Liz: Awesome, great, thanks.

Liz: I am wondering how many recipes did you need to develop until you settled on the final 140?

Bobby Flay: Hundreds. I couldn’t tell you what the right number would be. But hundreds of them. I serve brunch in some of my restaurants. We have the show, of course, so I’m always developing recipes. You just sort of narrow it down. I would say probably 300 or 400. So maybe there’ll be a brunch book 2!

Liz: Yeah. Definitely. Thanks.
