The humble spud, who knew you could have so much variety with the same recipe, A potato salad. For the latest July/ August issue of Food Network Magazine, I was asked to style by the magazine, 5 different Food Network stars recipes, Sunny Anderson, Bobby Flay, Alex Guarnaschelli, Robert Irvine and Anne Burrell. 

Many of the stories I find myself working on are interpreting a celebrity chefs style in terms of what plate they would use, the style of napkin etc if in fact they had been able to be there. As many of you would know each star has a particular flavor to their personal style and cooking, It's the job of the Prop Stylist to be instinctive and interpret this often without ever meeting them. I often wonder when a shoot comes out, do these celebrity chef's ever think we channeled their spirit in the best way, hopefully so,  Food for thought? ; )   

The feature was shot by the talented Anna Williams  and the food was styled once again by the very seasoned Susan Spungen
