Entertaining at Home - 5897

Mix equal parts of chef extraordinaire, cookbook author, food stylist, culinary teacher and television cooking-show host, add a generous measure of humor, a dash of showmanship and a twist of elegance, combine well and the result? The quintessential host - Chef Annemarie Huste. After receiving early training in her native Germany, Annemarie relocated to the United States. Here, prior experience as cook in private homes secured her a series of posts as personal chef in several celebrity households. As chef to famed theatrical showman Billy Rose and, subsequently, personal chef to Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy and her children, Chef Annemarie served four-star meals on a daily basis. During the two years she spent as Mrs. Kennedy's chef, she devised menus and cooked for a "who's who" of that era's national statesmen and international rulers and royalty. And although the former First Lady preferred classic French cuisine, Chef Annemarie regularly employed her expertise in all styles and cuisines. With six cookbooks to her credit, three years as executive chef to Gourmet Magazine, founder of Annemarie's Cooking School, food editor of The Saturday Evening Post and the German edition of Family Circle, host of three series of major network cooking shows, nationally touring lecturer/cooking teacher, and owner and executive chef of her own private dining establishment, Chef Annemarie's culinary knowledge and talents, skills and experience have combined to yield not only a world-class chef and first-rate teacher but, when mixed with her exuberant style and zest for life, a personalité gastronomique extraordinaire!
