About
Barbara Seelig Brown
“Put on
your Bunny Slippers, pour a glass of wine and cook.”
For years, as a culinary educator, this has been Barbara’s favorite
phrase to set the scene for her students.
The concept – relax, have a good time, and she will show you how to
make cooking at home a breeze.
This theme resonates in all Barbara’s culinary endeavors be
they as a cookbook author, food columnist, radio personality and now as a TV
host for the Stress Free Cooking Show, airing Fall 2007.

both a culinary educator and food and wine spokesperson.

Star Ledger Savor, The Record Food, Garden State Woman and New Jersey
