My signature dish is a squid ink pasta with mussels in a white wine sauce topped with parmesan, fresh parsley and a salt cured egg yolk lightly grated over the top.
Who is your culinary inspiration?My culinary inspiration is my grandmother Celestine Foreman. She raised her children as well as me and my cousin on great home cooked southern food. She also operates a non profit food bank called BREAD OF HEAVEN FOOD MINISTRY through our home church. I spent many a night and holiday in the kitchen with her soaking in everything she did she was the beginning of my love of food and entry into the culinary world!!!!
What would you do with the $25,000?If I won the 25,000 I would definitely spend it on furthering the education of my little babies so they could go to school for the one thing they love as I did. I would also make a donation to my grandmother's food ministry.
