Chef Shelley Boris Talks Cooking for the Dalai Lama and Mikhail Gorbachev

 Shelley Boris talks about her new book, Fresh Cooking: A Year of Recipes from the Garrison Institute Kitchen

What the home cook desires—a cookbook with range and flexibility that addresses seasonality, budget, and diverse diets and tastes. Built around meals Shelley Boris created for the Garrison Institute, a retreat center in New York's Hudson Valley, it contains thirty-six menus, with four to five delicious recipes in each, organized by month. 

Shelley has published recipes in various journals and books, including the New York Times and Food & Wine Magazine, Recipes From America’s Small Farms, and co-wrote The International Mail Order Gourmet, a food guide. Since forming Fresh Company Shelley has cooked for such personalities as the Dalai Lama and Mikhail Gorbachev. She is a founding member of the Cold Spring Farmer’s Market and works in the Hudson Valley region to promote local foodmakers and farmers. http://www.garrisoninstitute.org/ http://facebook.com/northwestprime
