Jose Andres “60 Minutes” With Anderson Cooper Reveals Meat Is Boring
Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, May 5th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink.
Jose Andres is not a breast man.
In fact, given the choice between a good chicken bosom and pineapple, he’d choose the fruit.
Anderson Cooper recently profiled Andres on 60 Minutes, where Andres revealed vegetables turn him on and meat is boring.
After all theĀ erotic food talk, Cooper admitted even he was getting turned on.
“Come on, think about it for a second, okay?” Andres said. “Let’s compare a chicken breast, the best chicken breast from the best farm with a beautiful pineapple. Cut the pineapple, already the aromas are inundating the entire kitchen. Acidity. Sour after notes, touches of passion fruit.”
“Well, meat to me, it’s slightly boring. Hold on, I love meat too but only once in a while. You get a piece of meat and you put it in your mouth, you chew, the first five seconds, all the juices flow around your mouth, they’re gone, and then you are 20 more seconds chewing something that is tasteless at this point. Something like this doesn’t happen with a pineapple, an asparagus, or a green pea.”
Andres owns eight restaurants in the United States and is known for his exploration of molecular gastronomy, the physical and chemicals experiences that occur during cooking.
