   Stacie Cassarino Stacie's first venture into cooking, other than home-taught training in her grandmother's kitchen, occurred in Sicily, where she apprenticed at her family's bakery.She has since cooked in many respected kitchens, from Mario Batali's Babbo in New York City to Caf, Lago in Seattle WA.She also worked in bread and pastry production at Pearl Bakery in Portland OR, where Julia Child once described to her the inside of a perfect baguette.She has lived in Italy, Brazil, and various regions of the US, where she has devotedly gained a range of culinary knowledge within these foodscapes.Her work as a professor at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and Middlebury College in Vermont also involves food - she is currently teaching a course that investigates the role of food and feasting in literature and film for its cultural significance.She recently returned from a conference in Napa Valley, California, called "Healthy Kitchens, Healthy Lives" which focused on ways to design menus and cook meals that promote healthful well-being.Her connection to food beyond her backyard organic garden includes having worked on organic farm cooperatives in Brazil and Costa Rica, and having learned the art of making goat and cow cheese while abroad.She is a member of Slow Food and has always believed in principles of sustainability, focusing on foods that are seasonal, regional/local, and organic where possible.
