Realizing I am spending too much time working on my new business and not enough time adding to my blog I am going to attempt to add some content that I have developed in the past. I worked as the resident chef for five years at Cakebread Cellars. I cant say enough kind words about the Cakebread family. They are committed to excellence and have a world class culinary program lead by culinary director, Brian Streeter. I learned much of my recipe writing techniques at the winery. It takes a lot of hard work. Here is one my recipes that is on the Cakebread Cellars website, a great source for wine and food recipes.
