About Me
| Bringing the flavors of the world into homes and kitchens is Sheilah Kaufman’s greatest gift. As the author of 26 delectable cookbooks and a culinary instructor for more than 40 years, Sheilah has shared her great passion for richly flavored, no-fuss food and cooking with thousands of home chefs across the nation.
Known by students and home chefs as the spokeswoman for all things “fearless and fussless,” Sheilah brings to the table uniquely refreshing and creative recipes that are practical and easy while maintaining a delicious elegance. With her many helpful hints and tips Sheilah removes the intimidation from cooking and entertaining. In her books, A Taste of Turkish Cuisine, and Sephardic Israeli Cuisine (Hippocrene Books) Sheilah shares with her readers the deeply beautiful tapestry of Turkish and Israeli food and culture, offering a multitude of delicious and healthy recipes that can easily be re-created in the American home and kitchen.

From Alaska to Hawaii and Maine to Mexico, Sheilah has taught thousands of students who are endeared by her ability to teach all forms of cooking with humor and ease. With her fearless and fussless series, including Sheilah’s Fearless Fussless Cookbook, (Delacorte, 1982), and her newest book UPPER CRUSTS Fabulous Ways To Use Bread and the new edition of SIMPLY IRRESISTIBLE: Easy, Elegant, Fearless, Fussless Cooking, Sheilah demonstrates the ease of entertaining with recipes taking less than 30 minutes preparation time while achieving stunning results.
