famous chefs

Over the years, I have became aware of some famous chefs that are in the business, and are very successful at what they do. Here is a post list of some of the most well-named chefs.

• Paula Deen
• Rachel Ray
• Bobby Flay
• Emeril Legasse
• Julia Childs
• Barefoot Contessa

Some of these chefs use complex ingredients that are hard to handle. However, they also explain how to handle these ingredients. They also demonstrate this on their cooking shows. For example, Emeril Legasse focuses on Italian cuisine while Paula Deen makes comfort food. However, all of the chefs share one thing in common. They have a passion for cooking. I'm bringing up a few of my favorite chefs to help generate an idea of what kind of food to cook. These chefs are influences for people in general. I know that there are lots more. In fact, too many to list.
However, my favorite is Paula Deen. She makes this awesome potato salad that I’ve brought to a few barbeques.
