Rose Levy Beranbaum is Sharing Her Retro Videos with the Internet!

The woman behind some of our most beloved bibles -- The Cake Bible, The Bread Bible, and The Pie and Pastry Bible -- has begun a project to share her old retro videos with the Internet on YouTube.

Rose Levy Beranbaum's first, which you can see above, kicks off six segments taped back in 1988, right before her cake bible was published. The featured recipe is a rather tasty-looking Orange Glow Chiffon Cake. What I think I love the most about this video is that you can watch her refer to a cheat sheet hidden behind the mixer. (I assume that's what she's doing, and not staring at the edge of the counter!) I think it's quite nice to watch a professional refer to notes because really, I always wonder how they memorize every last recipe, don't you?
