MY BATALI SURVIVAL GUIDE: MAINTAIN A CLEAN KITCHEN

CHEFS I FOLLOW:

CHEF NASH
Brunei's finest! I am inspired with this vibrant chef's thoughts that I can't get enough! Refreshing insights on latest techniques and his stories is a fresh of breath air (at least to me). He's my unofficial consultant on chef issues I face with this Batali project
DRIFTLESS APPETITE
Husband and wife tandem which gave me great insights on Southwest Wisconsin cuisine, places to see and best of all great tasting, easy to follow meals. Check out their Paella - -so yummy good! This is where I hang out -- when I am bored with Italian cooking
FRANK FARIELLO
Lawyer by day, chef by night! See his passion for authentic Italian cooking! Home cooked food is always the best (and I agree your honor!). He is my unofficial guru that I lean on whenever I have brain freeze from these Mario recipes
Rouxbe Online Cooking School
Great resource for wishful-thinking chef like me with easy to follow procedures. I am still thinking if I should enroll in their class (maybe later after I finished a project at work).
SWEET FREAK
Traveling is one of my passion and so happy to came across with this gorgeous gem who has the same interest as I do - Sweets and Paris (what's not to like?).
WHAT'S COOKIN ITALIAN STYLE CUISINE
Want real italian cooking from a lovely chef who shares great memories from her childhood? I only visit a handful of websites - -and she's definitely top in my list (I'm her daily food stalker - so to speak )!

MY BATALI SURVIVAL GUIDE: MAINTAIN A CLEAN KITCHEN

Oh my - - I am so glad I finished business school and not cooking school! There's a lot of wiping, scrubbing, mopping needed to maintain our squeaky clean kitchen (Gordon Ramsey will be so proud of me).

Anyway, there's a lot of baking in this book so check the oven at all times and make sure you clean them regularly. I baked a BLUEBERRY PIE last week and one tiny berry escaped in the prison crust...so last night when I was creating my FOCACCIA , I smelled burned crap in my kitchen. Thank heavens for automatic cleaners in the oven.

I need to watch iron chef again..I remember they were running around like headless chicken while slicing, stirring, poaching etc -- and I am doing it here - - CLEAN KITCHEN is a must !
