ABOUT CHEF TRICIA FRIEDMAN

Chef Tricia has been cooking ever since she can remember. She has fond memories of experiments with cookies, cakes and other pastries beginning at the age of seven.

She is never shy in the kitchen and loves to try new recipes. She has never made a "tried and true" recipe for a single dinner party, but rather, enjoys the adventure of new flavors, new textures and new presentations. She subscribes to many cooking magazines including Bon Appetit which she has chronicled since 1993. She has logged every recipe ever tried and rated it for repeat performances.
