Cook the Book: 'Summer on a Plate'

My Aunt's were my culinary mentor, but, sadly, they have passed. I am now the mentor to my own children and am passing on all I have learned!

My favorite store is Town and Country - it is our local supermarket and is small but has a bit of everything!

For me, it's my husband. He's a whiz in the kitchen and I have learned so much from him. Best of all, he's a mentor that's readily available!

My mom at first. She would let me make mini pies in pyrex cups when she made full pies so I could make and eat my own.

My mentors were first, my Mother, and recently, Bobby Flay. He gives a good example of tweaking a recipe every Throwdown!

Ina Garten's or Jacques Pepin's books are the cookbooks I turn to when I need a special recipe.

Food blogs were mine, though now that I like cooking I talk with my mom about it more. She didn't teach me as a kid or anything, but learn things now.

I would have to say Alain Saillac and Jacques Pepin although I didn't spend enormous amounts of time with either of them during my time ant FCI, they made their presence felt, and their philosophy, attitude, skills and generosity of spirit will always stick with me.
