Marcus Samuelsson Whether Quotations

Like all food, whether you're talking about Persian food, or Chinese food, or Swedish food, it's always a reflection of wars, trading, a bunch of good and a bunch of bad. But what's left is always the food story.

Whether you're on a diet, or you're looking for a go-to one bowl dinner recipe, salads should be thought of as crowd-pleasers, not a dreaded component of a meal.

Every day, whether I am teaching or entertaining - I absolutely love bringing different people and cultures together.

I started cooking for the love of cooking, and I am going to keep cooking whether there's a celebrity aspect to it or not.

I am a chef through and through. Everything I do - whether it is cooking for kids in Harlem or cooking in a fine dining establishment - all my days are consumed by food.
