Title
Beth's Culinary Delights Personal Chef Service
Description
Chef Beth Arnold has loved food and cooking since she was a little girl living in northeast
. On Saturday mornings, she and her mom would watch the cooking shows that aired on a local public TV station. Julia Child and Justin Wilson were her two favorites. She began to learn basic cooking skills and recipes from her two celebrity heroes and from her mother and grandmothers. She remembers going to her grandparents' houses and helping prepare the meal. “I grew up watching food be lovingly prepared. Both sets of my grandparents lived through the Depression, so they found creative ways to feed their family and that was done out of love. My grandmothers’ taught me about 'food of love' way before Emeril became popular.” This concept of “food of love” was reinforced at home by her parents and sister.
Beth first realized that food would be a lifelong passion when cooking with her granny. “We were baking cookies and I remember being happily surprised at how basic and mundane ingredients could become something so mouth-watering delicious! I think we might have eaten the whole batch!” Beth continued to add to her growing knowledge of food and cooking while growing up. When she was in high school, she and her best friend did a project for a class. “We did a cooking show, and my best friend did all the work, and I had all the fun! We made Snicker doodles and I think there was more flour on us than in the cookies. That experience made me dream of having my own cooking show one day!” laughs the Chef.
