Tom Colicchio teaches Kate Winslet for “Mildred Pierce”

Thomas Keller taught Adam Sandler.

Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger taught the cast of Tortilla Soup.

Michael White taught Catherine Zeta-Jones and Aaron Eckhart.

Celebrity Chefs are adding yet another title to their vast array — cooking teachers to Hollywood stars. With more and more culinary-themed films being produced, this is a lucrative growth area for celebrity chefs.

If you are watching HBO’s miniseries, Mildred Pierce, you’re going to see Tom Colicchio student Kate Winslet as a restaurant owner.

How good was Tom’s teaching?

That seems to depend on what Kate is cooking.

Take a look at what she told David Letterman back in 2009. The big question then: “With an average two wounds per meal, does Kate Winslet belong in the kitchen?” Apparently, she really needed lessons, at least something along the lines of occupational safety and health.
