Today’s episode we have another fabulous story of episode. That's right there's no guest, instead, I'm presenting the fourth of the series of episodes in which I bring the life story of a chef or person that has influenced our lives through a mutual love of French cuisine. This story is about a woman who is often overlooked by some of the people that were trained by her, well her school.  Élisabeth Brassart bought the acclaimed cooking school in Paris, Le Cordon Bleu. Credited with turning the school's fortunes around and making it what today is one of the most prestigious cooking schools in the world. But famously Élisabeth is often portrayed by her ex-students in not such a good light, the likes of Julia Child for instance who she notably failed on her first exam. But I want to know more about this fabulous French woman who gave us what we know as Le Cordon Bleu today.  This is her story.More information can be found on Le Cordon Bleu Paris via the link below. https://www.cordonbleu.edu/paris/accueil/fr
