Thanks, but I just missed it, by 20 minutes. Looks like chefs life is starting next week. For me in western Canada it is on PBS on Sat morning...maybe they are alternating it with mind of a chef.

I found it here http://video.pbs.org/program/mind-chef/

I loved it and now I need her book!

Thanks again.

Oh my Lord you will love her book(s). She has an autobiography and a cookbook and both of them had me entranced.

I watched the Prune episode online. Fun to watch her make that sauce! I have both her books - but have only quickly browsed the cookbook and forgot that I even had Blood, Bones & Butter. I must take another look at both. Thanks, rotuts.

She is impressive, is she not?  

With respect to the "Mind of a Chef" series, in this Fortune piece, that briefly examined her refusals to build an empire, she said "she got to be influential in the writing and driving where it went. She added, “It was a perfect extension of who I was.”  

I like that!
