Special Guest Chef from New York City: Sara MoultonOne of the hardest-working women in the food biz, Sara Moulton has been juggling three jobs for the last several years. She is the host of Sara’s Secrets which runs on the Food Network seven days a week. She is the chef of the executive dining room at Gourmet magazine. And she is the Food Editor for ABC-TV’s Good Morning America. In 2002, she added a fourth gig to the list, promoting her first cookbook, Sara Moulton Cooks at Home. October 2005 welcomed the arrival of her second book, Sara’s Secrets for Weeknight Meals.
She worked for two years as an instructor at Peter Kump’s New York Cooking School (renamed the Institute of Culinary Education), where she discovered her love of teaching, a passion that would give focus to her subsequent work in television.
Her TV career began in 1979, when she was hired to work behind the scenes on public television’s Julia Child & More Company. Her friendship with Julia led eventually to Sara’s gig at Good Morning America where what started as another behind-the-scenes position ripened by 1997 into on-camera work. By then Sara had begun hosting the Food Network’s Cooking Live. Six years and over 1200 hour-long shows later, Cooking Live ended its run on March 31, 2002. Sara’s Secrets began the next day.
