🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Julia Turshen
She wanted to work on cookbooks from a young age, always looking through cookbooks with a great interest. And at the age of thirteen, she also opened a mini restaurant in her family home. Julia’s maternal grandparents, which were refugees to the United States, owned a bread bakery in Brooklyn, which Julia’s mom grew up in. Despite never meeting her grandparents, she believes that these roots of hers created a “genetic, hereditary” pull toward cooking inside of her. While her parents didn’t cook all that much, she taught herself how to cook with the aid of books and the pre-Food Network television landscape of Julia Child and the Discovery Channel’s Great Chefs show. In between high school and college, Julia worked at Kneaded Bread Bakery in Port Chester, New York.
