Cooking With Ms Stewart

Martha Stewart is a Renaissance person  for the home arts. What she does and has done is amazing as she initiates America and the world to domestic creativity. Her cooking and baking are well known as are her recipes . She can take any recipe whether simple or complicated and turn it into a unique masterpiece.

She was the subject of the new New York Daily News Wednesday food section. (usually my Wed entry is rserved for the New York Times Dining section however that may change thanks to the Daily News ). The News' Patty Lee interviewed her about her new half hour  show Martha Stewart's Cooking Show."which is on Sundays at 4 PM.In it she harks back to another PBS master cheff , Julia Child. Unlike the second she will explain each recipe and step in her unique, authoratative way. This is a great show for beginners because each step is thoroughly explained.

The recipes given range from super super easy to relativehard. There is an easy one for an herbed omelet  made with clarifued butter. This is a great way to not only enjoy a perfect omlet but to experiment with herbs like tarragon , parsley and chervil. There is also a brown sugared carrot recipe, perfect with r. The baked mac and cheese is pure Martha. She adds not only cheddar but also Gruyere and fontina along with grated Parmiggiano Reggiano cheese as well.THis is an adult version of th family classic and it would go well with a fine dry white wine..There will be episodes as well. Martha Stewart is a great inspiration to anyone, whether they be a cook or craftsman.Her new show will garner her a lot of new fans. They will certainly benefit from her recipes and advice.
