Cooking with Celek

Since it seems likely that L.J. Smith will not be back with the Birds, Celek's hungry for the starting job.

This off-season, he has a lot of things cooking, including wedding plans and rehab on his newly reconstructed shoulder, but he took a time out to join us in the kitchen, where he got some tips from Osteria's Executive Chef, Jeff Michaud.

A self-described food fanatic, Celek spends his days watching cooking shows on TV, and couldn't wait to get his hands dirty.

On the menu - Squash Tortelli with butter, sage, and Amaretti, and Pizza Lombarda, complete with a baked egg on top.
