Barefoot Contessa: everything is made with a pound of butter + heavy cream. Try her Chicken Piccata.

Paula Deen: She's the down-home version of the snooty Barefoot. Same amounts of butter + cream in every dish. I don't really watch her much. Try her wild rice salad. Oh, and her two "boys" are annoying.

Alton Brown: He's good with science. The nerd of the crew.

Giada: She'll add mascarpone cheese to any dish and call it Italian.

Bobby Flay: The master of blender sauces.

Jamie Oliver: Great show. You'll have to do some translation from English to English if you know what I mean.

Tyler Florance: This guy cooks up some great stuff. It's hard to listen to him talk though. He speaks in a strange stoner language.

Molto Mario: He's the best. I record his show on the Fine Living network (I think). I don't think he's on Food TV anymore. Ming Tsai's show is there too.

On PBS I record Cook's Illustrated. I have Rick Bayless' cookbooks, but I've never seen his show. I'll have to check it out.

My 7 yo loves cooking shows so of course I got her some Giada DVD's. I would love it if she were to try my cannoli.
