ABOUT THE SPEAKERS
Homaro Cantu - Chef
The executive chef at Chicago's Moto restaurant, Homaro Cantu created postmodern cuisine and futuristic food delivery systems.

Why you should listen

You could call Homaro Cantu a chef -- or an inventor of futuristic food delivery systems. A graduate of Le Cordon Bleu in Portland, Oregon, he worked in Charlie Trotter’s restaurant in Chicago, where he rose to the position of sous chef, then left to found Moto, a path-breaking restaurant with a molecular gastronomy approach. Moto puts Cantu’s concepts and creations into practice by melding food with science, technology and art. Michael Eisner once described Cantu as the most revolutionary person in food since Ray Kroc.

Through his company Cantu Designs, Chef Cantu filed numerous patent applications covering dining implements, cookware, printed food and hoped to develop his inventions for commercial, humanitarian and aerospace applications. In 2013 he released The Miracle Berry Diet Cookbook to imagine uses for the flavor-tripping "miracle fruit." As he said: "Any idea's a great idea as long as it tastes great." Cantu passed away in April 2015.

00:29
the logologo, whichkoji was like a Japanesejapanski
7
14000
2000
možda zbog zaštitnog znaka, koji je nalikovao

01:26
a little bitbit differentdrugačiji and transformtransformirati flavorsokusa
34
71000
2000
pomalo drugačije i transformirati okuse
01:28
that were very familiarupoznat -- so in this casespis,
35
73000
3000
koji su nam vrlo poznati -- u ovom slučaju,
01:31
we have carrotmrkva caketorta.
36
76000
2000
imamo tortu od mrkve.
01:33
So we take a carrotmrkva caketorta, put it
37
78000
2000
Dakle, uzmemo tortu od mrkve,
01:35
in a blendermiješalica, and we have kindljubazan of like
38
80000
2000
ubacimo je u mikser i dobijemo nešto poput
01:37
a carrotmrkva caketorta juicesok, and then that wentotišao into
39
82000
2000
soka od torte od mrkve. Zatim smo to stavili
01:39
a balloonbalon frozenzamrznut in liquidtekući nitrogendušika to createstvoriti

42
89000
2000
od torte od mrkve, više-manje,
01:46
looking like, you know,

Jupiter'sJupiter je floatingplivajući around your plateploča.
44

2000
kao da vam Jupiter lebdi na tanjuru.
01:50
So yeah, we're transformingpretvarajući things into
45
95000
2000
I tako mi to pretvaramo
01:52
something that you have absolutelyapsolutno
46
97000
2000
u nešto što zaista
01:54
no referenceupućivanje for.
47
99000
2000
nemate s čime usporediti.
01:56
HCHC: And here'sevo something we have no
48
101000
2000
HC: Evo i nečega što

02:25
InsteadUmjesto toga of makingizrađivanje foodshrana that
62
130000
2000
Umjesto da radimo hranu koja
02:27
look like things that you wouldn'tne bi eatjesti,
63
132000
2000
nalikuje stvarima koje ne biste jeli,
02:29
we decidedodlučio to make ingredientsSastojci
64
134000
2000
odlučili smo obraditi sastojke tako
02:31
look like dishesposuđe that you know.
65
136000
2000
da nalikuju poznatim jelima.
02:33
So this is a plateploča of nachosNachosi.

2000
Ovo je tanjur nachosa.
02:35
The differencerazlika betweenizmeđu our nachosNachosi

02:49
into liquidtekući nitrogendušika to look like cheesesir.
74
154000
2000
u tekući dušik kako bi izgledao poput sira.
02:51
And after doing all of this
75
156000
2000
Nakon što smo toliko
02:53
dematerializationdematerialization and reconfiguringponovno konfiguriranje
76
158000
3000
dematerijalizirali i rekonfigurirali
02:56
of this, of these ingredientsSastojci, we realizedshvatio
77
161000
3000
ove sastojke, shvatili smo
02:59
that it was prettyprilično coolsvjež,
78
164000
2000
da je to prilično cool.
03:01
because as we servedslužio it, we learnednaučeno that
79
166000
2000
Naime, dok smo to servirali, primijetili smo
03:03
the dishjelo actuallyzapravo behavesponaša se like the realstvaran thing,
80
168000
2000
da se jelo ponaša kao pravo,
03:05
where the cheesesir beginspočinje to meltrastopiti.
81
170000
2000
gdje se sir počinje topiti.
03:07
So when you're looking at this thing
82
172000
2000
Kad gledate to
03:09
in the diningblagovaonica roomsoba, you have this sensationosjećaj
83
174000
2000
u blagovaonici, imate osjećaj
03:11
that this is actuallyzapravo a plateploča of nachosNachosi,
84
176000
2000
da je ovo zaista tanjur nachosa,
03:13
and it's not really untildo you beginpočeti tastingdegustacija it
85
178000
2000
a tek kad ga kušate
03:15
that you realizeostvariti this is a dessertdesert, and
86
180000
2000
shvatite da je to desert
03:17
it's just kindljubazan of like a mind-ripperum-sjajna stvar.
87
182000
3000
i da vam se igra s mozgom.
03:20
(LaughterSmijeh)
88
185000
2000
(Smijeh)
03:22
HCHC: So we had been creatingstvaranje
89
187000
2000
HC: Stvarali smo
03:24
all of these dishesposuđe out of a
90
189000
2000
sva ta jela
03:26
kitchenkuhinja that was more like
91
191000
2000
u kuhinji koja je više nalikovala
03:28
a mechanic'smehaničara shopdućan than a kitchenkuhinja, and
92
193000
2000
mehaničarskoj radnji nego kuhinji
03:30
the nextSljedeći logicallogičan stepkorak for us was to installinstalirati
93
195000
2000
i idući logičan korak bio je da ugradimo
03:32
a state-of-the-artstanje-of-the-art laboratorylaboratorija,
94
197000
2000
najsuvremeniji laboratorij,
03:34
and that's what we have here.
95
199000
2000
i upravo to vidimo ovdje.
03:36
So we put this in the basementpodrum, and we
96
201000
2000
Ovo smo stavili u podrum
03:38
got really seriousozbiljan about foodhrana, like
97
203000
2000
i počeli se ozbiljno baviti hranom,
03:40
seriousozbiljan experimentationeksperimentiranje.
98
205000
2000
ozbiljno smo eksperimentirali.
03:42
BRBR: One of the really coolsvjež things about
99
207000
2000
BR: Jedna od zaista cool stvari u
03:44
the lablaboratorija, besidesosim toga that we have a newnovi
100
209000
2000
ovom laboratoriju, osim činjenice da imamo
03:46
scienceznanost lablaboratorija in the kitchenkuhinja, is that,
101
211000
2000
novi znanstveni laboratorij u kuhinji, jest
03:48
you know, with this newnovi equipmentoprema, and
102
213000
2000
da su nam se s tom novom opremom
03:50
this newnovi approachpristup, all these
103
215000
2000
i s našim novim pristupom
03:52
differentdrugačiji doorsvrata to creativitykreativnost that we never
104
217000
2000
otvorila mnoga nova različita vrata u kreativnost
03:54
knewznao were there beganpočeo to openotvoren, and so the
105
219000
2000
koja nikad prije nismo znali otvoriti, i tako su
03:56
experimentspokusi and the foodhrana and the dishesposuđe
106
221000
2000
eksperimenti i hrana i jela
03:58
that we createdstvorio, they just keptčuva going
107
223000
3000
koja smo stvarali postajala
04:01
furtherunaprijediti and furtherunaprijediti out there.
108
226000
2000
sve neobičnija i neobičnija.
04:03
HCHC: Let's talk about flavorokus transformationtransformacija,
109
228000
2000
NC: Hajdemo sada preobražavati okuse
04:05
and let's actuallyzapravo make some coolsvjež stuffstvari.
110
230000
2000
i stvarati neke zaista cool stvari.
04:07
You see a cowkrava with its tonguejezik hangingvješanje out.
111
232000
2000
Vi vidite kravu kojoj jezik visi van.
04:09
What I see is a cowkrava about to eatjesti something
112
234000
2000
Ja vidim kravu koja se sprema pojesti
04:11
deliciousukusna. What is that cowkrava eatingjelo?
113
236000
3000
nešto ukusno. Što ta krava jede?
04:14
And why is it deliciousukusna?
114
239000
2000
I zašto je ukusno?
04:16
So the cowkrava, basicallyu osnovi, eatsjede threetri basicosnovni
115
241000
2000
Krave se u biti hrane trima osnovnim
04:18
things in theirnjihov feedstočna hrana: cornkukuruz, beetsrepe, and barleyječam,
116
243000
4000
namirnicama: kukuruzom, ciklom i ječmom.
04:22
and so what I do is I actuallyzapravo
117
247000
2000
Ja zapravo izazivam
04:24
challengeizazov my staffosoblje with these crazylud,
118
249000
2000
svoje osoblje svojim ludim,
04:26
wilddivlji ideasideje. Can we take what the cowkrava
119
251000
3000
divljim idejama. Možemo li uzeti to što
04:29
eatsjede, removeukloniti the cowkrava, and then make
120
254000
2000
krava jede, ukloniti kravu i zatim napraviti
04:31
some hamburgershamburgera out of that?
121
256000
2000
hamburgere od toga?
04:33
And basicallyu osnovi the reactionreakcija tendsteži to be
122
258000
2000
Reakcije koje dobivam uglavnom su
04:35
kindljubazan of like this. (LaughterSmijeh)

Let's just stop and think about the

some watermelonlubenica. The ideaideja with this

06:26
is that we're going to eliminateeliminirati tonstona of

06:43
so we have a watermelonlubenica from WisconsinWisconsin.
180
388000
2000
Ovdje imamo lubenicu iz Wisconsina.
06:45
HCHC: So if miraclečudo berriesbobice take sourkiselo things
181
390000
2000
HC: Ako čudnovate bobice kisele stvari
06:47
and turnskretanje them into sweetslatko things,
182
392000
2000
pretvaraju u slatke,
06:49
we have this other pixiePixie dustprah
183
394000
2000
mi imamo drugačiji vilinski prah
06:51
that we put on the watermelonlubenica, and it
184
396000
2000
koji stavljamo u lubenicu i on ju
06:53
makesmarke it go from sweetslatko to savoryukusan.
185
398000
3000
pretvara iz slatke u slanu, pikantnu.
06:56
So after we do that, we put it into

2000
Nakon što to učinimo, stavljamo je u

188
405000

07:03
startspočinje takinguzimanje on the appearanceizgled of tunatune.
189
408000
2000
počinje nalikovati na tunu.
07:05
So the keyključ now is to make it
190
410000
2000
Sad je bitno dobiti
07:07
behaveponašati like tunatune.
191
412000
2000
da se i ponaša kao tuna.
07:09
BRBR: And then after a quickbrz dipumak into some

193
416000

u tekući dušik kako bismo dobili savršeni rez,
07:14
we really have something that looksizgled,
194

zaista imamo nešto što izgleda,
07:16
tastesokusi and behavesponaša se like the realstvaran thing.
195
421000
3000
ima okus i ponaša se kao prava stvar.
07:19
HCHC: So the keyključ thing to rememberzapamtiti here is,
196
424000
3000
HC: Najvažnije je zapamtiti da nas
07:22
we don't really carebriga
197
427000

zapravo nije briga
07:25

08:12
relearnponovo učiti how to cookkuhati in generalgeneral,
220
477000
3000
ponovno naučiti kako uopće kuhati
08:15
because these are ingredientsSastojci, you know,
221
480000
2000
jer ti su sastojci, znate,
08:17
plantbiljka life that we're, one, unfamiliarnepoznato with,
222
482000
2000
biljke s kojima, kao prvo, nismo upoznati,
08:19
and two, we have no referenceupućivanje for how
223
484000
2000
a kao drugo, ne znamo

to cookkuhati these things because
224
486000
2000
kako ih pripremati
08:23
people don't eatjesti them.
225
488000

jer ljudi ih ne jedu.

So we really had to think about newnovi, creativekreativan waysnačine

A graduate of Le Cordon Bleu in Portland, Oregon, he worked in Charlie Trotter’s restaurant in Chicago, where he rose to the position of sous chef, then left to found Moto, a path-breaking restaurant with a molecular gastronomy approach. Moto puts Cantu’s concepts and creations into practice by melding food with science, technology and art. Michael Eisner once described Cantu as the most revolutionary person in food since Ray Kroc.

Through his company Cantu Designs, Chef Cantu filed numerous patent applications covering dining implements, cookware, printed food and hoped to develop his inventions for commercial, humanitarian and aerospace applications. In 2013 he released The Miracle Berry Diet Cookbook to imagine uses for the flavor-tripping "miracle fruit." As he said: "Any idea's a great idea as long as it tastes great." Cantu passed away in April 2015.
