Cooking has always been an integral part of my life. My childhood in San Francisco was spent watching both my mother and father cook delicious meals. I used to watch my mom go into the kitchen cabinets and pull out various bottles of seasoning and add them to whatever she was cooking, seemingly at random. I can honestly say that there were never any measuring spoons involved in the process. How was it that she knew just the right amounts to put in the food to make it taste magical? It was this inquisitiveness that would spark my love for food. I have strived to share that magic and passion with my own two daughters, my family, my clients, and now, you.
