Video Interlude

In the new episode of Eric Ripert's web series On the Table, Wylie Dufresne stops by to cook some eggs and talk about modern cuisine. In the clip, Ripert remarks, "I'm always afraid if I go into the direction where you went, I'm going to lose that pleasure of touching the food, being connected to the food." Dufresne replies, "I think that's a misconception that people think we're taking the romance out of it. We're just trying to understand things a little bit better so we can make better decisions when we cook something." [Eater National]
