The author of "The Sharper Your Knife" tells the inspiring story of how she helped nine others find their inner cook.
After
graduating from Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, writer Kathleen Flinn returned
with no idea what to do next, until one day at a supermarket she
watched a woman loading her cart with ultraprocessed foods. Flinn's
"chefternal" instinct kicked in: she persuaded the stranger to reload
with fresh foods, offering her simple recipes for healthy, easy meals.
"The
Kitchen Counter Cooking School" includes practical, healthy tips that
boost readers' culinary self-confidence, and strategies to get the most
from their grocery dollar, and simple recipes that get readers cooking. (Check Catalog)
