Check out this great interview on her brand new book featuring the journey of her Sustainable Food mission and Chez Panisse:

Alice Waters: 40 years of Sustainable Foods



"My real emphasis is on the farmers who are taking care of the land, the farmers who are really thinking about our nourishment. I'm looking for them and I know very well that in order to cook something that is really flavorful, you need to have ingredients that are grown in a place where they really thrive and so you're looking to the farmer to plant the right seeds in the right place and care for them, and know when to pick them. That's 85 percent of cooking is about finding those ingredients and then it's so easy after that. You just let them be themselves."
