Call Alice Waters a food revolutionary, and she’ll admit she’s out to save the American food supply and change everything with a plate of delicious food.
Waters has been a culinary crusader since she opened Chez Panisse restaurant in Berkeley, Calif., 36 years ago. Since then, she has lived up to the role the New York Times recently called “the high priestess of the local, sustainable food revolution by selecting only the best ingredients.”
In her ninth cookbook, “The Art of Simple Food: Notes, Lessons, and Recipes >From a Delicious Revolution,” published in October by Clarkson Potter, Waters fills 406 pages for anyone who wants to learn to cook or become a better one
