Vegetarian Star

President-elect Barack Obama and the fam are packing their things and loading it into the U-Haul for the big move to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

OK, maybe they’re not taking the U-Haul, but rather a more fancy presidentialy mover. When they arrive, the Mrs. may be happy she no longer has to do the cooking as White House Chefs take over.

Scheib, the former chef for Bushes and Clintons, published a book White House Chef: Eleven Years, Two Presidents, One Kitchen, last year and it’s filled with recipes he made for the first families, including one of Chelsea Clinton’s favorites, Thai-Spiced Sweet Potato Soup With Gingered Bok Choy.

Chelsea learned to cook vegan while in the White House, receiving a special certificate for her efforts. In addition to the sweet potato soup, the vegetarian Clinton likes grilled onions in the summertime.

Most college students leave home with knowledge of how to boil ramen noodles, bake frozen pizzas, and maybe stack high their favorite sandwich. But most college students aren’t daughters of the President.

Before Chelsea Clinton went off to Standford, Hillary asked the White House Cooking Staff to teach her daughter how to prepare delicious vegan meals. Chelsea has been keeping pork off her fork since childhood. But this was more than just a weekend of “helpful hints.” Chelsea spent an entire 6 weeks learning the craft and upon completion, she received a Walter Scheib cooking school certificate.

Masslive.com has lots of juicy details given by Walter Scheib, who served as executive chef for the White House during both Clinton and Bush presidencies, including how Hillary Clinton was really into fennel and Laura Bush was “adamant about organic.”
