Ina-Garten

Ina Garden is an American cookbook writer who has won Emmy Awards. She is the host of the longest-running Food Network show Barefoot Contessa. The series began in 2002. It is scheduled to air for another 27 seasons. Ina began her writing career by creating nuclear energy policies as well as budgets to the White House. Though she initially found it fascinating, eventually she stopped her interest. So she purchased a Barefoot Contessa a small speciality food store. It took her 18 years to turn the store into hugely successful, and then closed it. She then began to write one of her cookbooks. Others followed, and so magazines too. Her Food Network TV show also was launched which was an enormous hit. Additionally, she offers all kinds of cooking equipment, tools and storage containers. Ina herself, a self-taught chef, has never studied at the culinary institute or at a hotel. Her name is associated with her casual approach to creating and entertaining. Her most popular recipes include the lemon chicken that she grills in a skillet and Beatty's Chocolate Cake Mac & Cheese Beef Bouguignon and the Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts & Lemon Bars.
