If you missed this week's GOOP Newsletter, you missed the lovely Gwyneth Paltrow trying her hand at being an on-screen chef. Not exactly Julia Child yet, but pretty impressive. I obviously wasn't fond of the chicken portion of her meal (I still greatly miss the veg-head days of Paltrow), but at the 4 minute mark she started tossing together a gorgeous Farmer's Market inspired salad with a champagne, shallot, maple and mustard vinaigrette. It sounded (and looked) amazing! Throw in some sweet English Peas, a la my visit to Craft NYC, and I am in!
Gwyneth's Cookbook? So does this confirm the rumor's about Gwyneth's foodie aspirations? The NYTimes recently compared her to Martha and Oprah. While Perez said Gwyneth would be releasing a cookbook called, My Fathers Daughter, in bookstores in 2010. Come to think of it, Gwyn did mention her dad several times in this video. G, please add a few vegan recipes or a nice chunky macrobiotic section to your cookbook for your veg fans! Oh, and anyone know where Gwyneth got that gray top she's wearing in the video? I love it!

Could Gwyneth's top be by Rick Owens?

I love Gwyneth. Even if she hacked the chicken. 🙂 She is an interesting lady who gets a lot of crap from the press. I think her video was well done. And it was very Julia Child!

Like the GOOP newsletter, think the info is good and useful BUT wouldn't tune into Gwyn LIVE any time soon. Watching her hack that chicken, not to mention the revolting finished product wasn't really inspiring. Plus the 'throw what you got at the farmers market' salad wasn't novel. Liked the shirt and A for effort but let's leave the live cooking to Ina and Ellie etc.
