LAURA PAULI Laura Pauli's culinary passion began as a child, spending endless hours in her Italian grandmother's kitchen, which always had a bubbling pot of tomato sauce on the stove. According to Laura, she would run in, rip a chunk of freshly baked bread, and dunk it in the tomato sauce. "I burned my tongue every time, but I didn't care!" Laura studied at the French Culinary Institute in New York. While in school, Laura cooked with some of the world's best chefs including Jacques Pépin, Morimoto (Iron Chef), Mark Franz & Emily Luchetti (Farallon), Mario Batali (Babbo), Martin Heierling (Bellagio, Sensi), Dave Pasternak (Esca), and Alice Waters (Chez Panisse). After cooking on Jacques Pépin's PBS cooking show, "Fast Food, My Way", Laura moved to France to cook her way around the country. She cooked at the Cannes Film Festival, on a lobster boat in Brittany, at the world famous Pierre Hermé Patisserie in Paris, and at the Four Seasons George V. Laura was also the executive chef at the chateau featured in the film The DaVinci Code. Laura's first book, My Keyboard for a Cutting Board: Adventures in a French Kitchen, launched in July 2006 and her second book is due to be published in the summer of 2007. She also writes a weekly column for KQED's food web site, Bay Area Bites. For more information, visit her web site. www.cucinatestarossa.com July 18 - 25, 2008 € 3,200
