Where Did the Swedish Chef Muppet Come From?

When the Swedish Chef appeared originally it was assumed that Chef Tell was the inspiration. He was one of the first TV chefs and he was quite difficult to understand (he was German). I can't in retrospect rate his cooking but he was amusing.

Weekend Book Giveaway: 'Secret Ingredients, the New Yorker Book of Food and Drink'

Amanda Hesser's columns in the New York Times' magazine about her romance with Mr. Latte--aka Jake, aka Tad Friend--is a charming, graceful and completely delightful example of great food writing.

Where Did the Swedish Chef Muppet Come From?

I thought Chef Tell was Swiss. He often ended his segments with the catchphrase, "very simple, very easy, very good."

Wasn't it "save the giblets?"

My 7 year old takes dolmas to school almost every day for lunch. I would have to say that they're my favorite because they've saved her from a 5 day a week pb&j habit.
