FROM STAGE TO STOVE: A CULINARY JOURNEY AROUND THE WORLD A weekend of cooking and reading and here's a review of my favorite recipes from Kelis Rogers' "My Life on A Plate." Besides her career in music, Kelis is a Le Cordon Bleu trained chef with multiple television cooking specials, and a burgeoning entrepreneurial streak with her Bounty & Full organic sauce line. © David Loftus. It is no surprise in this entrepreneurial age we live in, that Rappers and Singers want to be Actors and Actors want to be singers (and sometimes Rappers). On occasion these endeavors are successful but rarely do you see any of the above leaving the glam and the glitz of celebrity to become an accomplished chef or cookbook author. Kelis Rogers is the exception. The ex-wife of superstar rapper, Nasir Jones a.k.a Nas, Kelis is quite the accomplished musician herself. She plays several instruments and is probably best known for her hit, “Milkshake.” Her recent labor of love, however is far removed from that lifestyle. “My Life On a Plate,” heralds her successful ascendency into the ranks of the culinary royalty. My Life On a Plate is a global culinary journey that tells the stories of a world traveler who enjoys good food. Her fondness of hole-in-the-wall eateries combined with her Le Cordon Bleu education is evident throughout the book and clearly serves as her inspiration. She adeptly captures the sights and sound of exotic locales and provides the reader with easy to follow instructions that allow you to taste her journeys via her refined palate. Foodies who travel will certainly appreciate her cookbook and the recipes will transport you there. This is a recipe source that is sure to be used over and over again. Two recipes of note that are certain to be favorites of traveling foodies, due to their taste and ease of preparation, are Kelis’ Beef Sliders and Shrimp Alcapurias.
