Whether you're a full-time chef, an interested hobby cook, or just have to get dinner on the table, there's always room for inspiration! On today's show we'll look at teachers, mentors and friends. We begin with Alice Waters talking about the development of her food philosophy. Bobby Flay and Jonathan Waxman weigh in on their mentors. And if you've ever used a cookbook by Julia Child or Marion Cunningham, you'll enjoy their legendary editor, Judith Jones. She talks about life in and out of publishing. Also, one woman's three year quest for an authentic pasta recipe. Plus how losing your job can get you to the Cordon Bleu School in Paris, and Jim Coleman with his memories cooking with his mentor, Madeleine Kamman. [Broadcast Date: December 20, 2007]
