Interview
5-min with Jehangir
His favorite ingredients…
Fennel. I love the seeds and the vegetable, whether it’s shaved raw in a salad or cooked. Mustard seeds also have a great texture, so I like to incorporate them into a lot of dishes. And chili, especially the sheer variety of flavors and heat.
On his style…
My background as a pastry chef definitely influences me—I’m very precise and focused on balancing different textures and tastes. It’s hard to label my style, as I blend Indian, Chinese, and American elements.
Advice for kitchen newbies…
Have fun and don’t be too serious. Make it your own. If you don’t like an ingredient in a recipe, change it!
On kitchen experiences…
Every place I’ve worked has taught me something. Sometimes inspiration comes from the most unlikely places. For example, washing dishes once gave me the idea for a new way to cook quail eggs.
His Best Compliment…
When my twins say I cook well—they’re my biggest critics. They eat everything, even foie gras and oysters!
