Here's chef Massimo Bottura of Modena's Osteria Francescana (currently ranked #3 in the world) on tradition: "Most of the time I ask myself, 'Is the tradition really respecting the ingredients?' If it's not, then I have to change the recipe. In the beginning, it was difficult to do, but after we showed people we could evolve the traditions by taking a different approach, everyone accepted it with open arms." [BI]
