Private Chef Life (Part 3): Chef Sam Kass on Cooking for the Obamas, the Future of Food, and when Oprah Saved the Day
Adrienne and Joe return for the third and final installment of our series on private chef work, and this time they’re joined by the Obama family’s longtime personal chef, Sam Kass. He tells us all about his journey from some of the highest pressure kitchens in America and Europe, to landing with the first family and running the kitchen in the West Wing. Plus, we discuss:
Adrienne and Sam’s connection as kids and how their careers in food have taken shape
The biggest “kitchen habits” Sam can’t seem to shake from his days in fine dining
Fork It or Forget It: Strawberry Sandwiches
Sam’s experience working with the Obamas to help shape food policy in America
The best lessons he learned from his most important mentor: forget the (proverbial) onions
Sam’s new book The Last Supper and how a growing food crisis is already affecting access to some of our favorite foods
A story about stepping into the White House for the first time on inauguration and how Oprah saved him from missing it
Walk In Confession: the most expensive mistake of Sam’s career involving a massive meal and a lot of butter
