Catherine is a French-born-and-raised foodie, and lover of luscious cuisine. But she also a scientist, earning her PhD in neuroscience at Princeton University. So, when her husband David presented her with the challenge of his very demanding nutrition standards, we realized that his passion for health and my love of French cooking also needed to be wed! And so our “marriage” of priorities resulted in 20 some years of methodical experimentation – but in a warm, lively home kitchen, rather than any neuroscience lab.
