I became a cook so I could cook and tell stories in wacky ways (Alton Brown Quotes)
I know people that could serve me canned tuna and saltine crackers and have me feel more at home at their table than some people who can cook circles around me. The more you try to impress people, generally the less you do (Alton Brown Quotes)
I say grace. I'm a big believer in grace. I happen to believe in a God that made all the food and so I'm pretty grateful for that and I thank him for that. But I'm also thankful for the people that put the food on the table (Alton Brown Quotes)
I'm a filmmaker who decided to go to culinary school. All I picked up was the fact if I didn't understand what was going on with every single ingredient, I could be qualifying for, like, the lunch food job at my daughter's school (Alton Brown Quotes)
The thing that helped me get into the film business was that I went to school in Athens, Georgia and managed to get on, um, working on music videos for a band called R. E. M. And that kind of opened up a lot of doors for me (Alton Brown Quotes)

A lot of food shows need only to tempt. Some food shows only need to inspire, to empower. And there are a lot of shows that do that (Alton Brown Quotes)
Culinary tradition is not always based on fact. Sometimes it’s based on history, on habits that come out of a time when kitchens were fueled by charcoal (Alton Brown Quotes)
I have nothing but sympathy for the people who are forced to work with me. I’m better now at picking out those that want to play that game with me, and those that don’t (Alton Brown Quotes)
The problem is I am both a procrastinator and a power junkie, so I am very frustrating to work with (Alton Brown Quotes)
A meringue is really nothing but a foam. And what is a foam after all, but a big collection of bubbles? And what’s a bubble? It’s basically a very flimsy little latticework of proteins draped with water. We add sugar to this structure, which strengthens it. But things can, and do, go wrong (Alton Brown Quotes)
A pie dough comes together exactly like a biscuit only there is very, very little liquid and no leavening involved. Other than that, the same rules apply. My best advice: handle the dough as little as possible (Alton Brown Quotes)
Although I don’t take myself very seriously, I do take my work extraordinarily seriously (Alton Brown Quotes)
Basting is evil. Basting does nothing for the meat. Why? Skin. Skin is designed to keep stuff out of the bird, so basting just lets heat out of the oven. That means the turkey will take longer to cook... so don’t touch that door! (Alton Brown Quotes)
I can’t talk about anything or write about anything if I don’t understand it. So a lot of the stuff that I go through and a lot of the time that I spend is understanding (Alton Brown Quotes)

But I still brush it with oil before I start (Alton Brown Quotes)
I think in the end there are only 20 or 30 tenets of basic cooking. It’s going at perhaps the same issue from different angles, from different points of view, from different presentation styles, that really makes things sink in and become embedded (Alton Brown Quotes)
My first book is really about heat. That book, for me, was an exploration of heat as ingredient. Why we don’t talk about heat as an ingredient, I don’t quite understand, because it is the common ingredient to all cooking processes (Alton Brown Quotes)
Recipe writers hate to write about heat. They despise it. Because there aren’t proper words for communicating what should be done with it (Alton Brown Quotes)
Stuffing is evil. Stuffing adds mass, so it slows the cooking. That’s evil because the longer the bird cooks, the drier it will be (Alton Brown Quotes)
Take ice. Ice is fascinating to me. Ice is the one thing in our world that went from an agricultural product to being manufactured (Alton Brown Quotes)
