in the kitchen with: harold dieterle’s creamed corn – Design*Sponge

despite being on its seventh season, top chef will always have one true “top chef” winner to me: chef harold dieterle. talented, funny, humble, and hard-working, harold was the clear choice (to me at least) from the get-go, and has since gone on to prove that he has the cooking chops to take his success beyond the top chef kitchen into the cut-throat world of the new york restaurants. since he opened his restaurant perilla in 2007, ac and i have visited as often as possible to enjoy the simple, no-fuss, but amazingly delicious food harold serves. so it made my day to hear from kristina that harold was going to join us for our top chef series here at d*s. normally kristina does these posts, but because i was a harold über-fan, she graciously let me handle this one.
