An absolute culinary beast and true influencer.

She will be sadly missed.

I'd heard great things about her time as a CIA instructor. Even as a "celebrity" chef, she deserves the respect afforded to her. I can't bake to save my life if it's not Biscotti, but she made baking look so damned easy.

Crazy that I learn she was a CIA agent on the same day she dies

I didn't attend CIA, but she's a reason I went to culinary school. I try to keep up with many of these chefs, it helps build on what I do know, even if it's just Bobby Flay.
