Christine Cushing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Christine Cushing (born Athens, Greece) is a Canadian celebrity chef, host of the television programmes Christine Cushing Live, and Cook With Me on Food Network Canada.
She originally studied linguistics at the University of Toronto, but in 1986, she graduated from the Food and Beverage Management program at George Brown College in Toronto. [1]
In the issue of TV Guide in Canada for the week of April 24-30 April 2004, Cushing said that the kitchen tool she could not live without was a mandolin.
Christine has written two cookbooks, most recently, Fearless in the Kitchen and introduced a line of upscale food products, "Pure by Christine Cushing". The first member of the "Pure" family -an award-winning extra virgin olive oil from her mom's homeland Crete- is currently available in stores across Canada. Her Pure line has been expanded to a line of gourmet all-natural pasta sauces.
