Who is Kary Osmond?

Kary Osmond - Kary Lyndsey Osmond is a Canadian-based celebrity cook. Kary became a household name in 2009 when she was selected as the host of Canadian Broadcasting Corporation’s daytime cooking show, Best Recipes Ever.

Growing up in a family that loves to cook and eat, Kary caught the culinary bug early on and was her mother’s little helper in their family-owned Ukrainian deli. The family moved on to their next culinary venture and opened a successful catering company. Operating out of their home’s basement, Kary was never to be found far from the action and loved helping to roll meatballs, cut bread and even wrap the veggie and fruit platters.

Kary’s first official cooking class was in Grade seven where she conquered her first recipe – Spaghetti à la Carbonara – in her Home Economics class. She then started collecting cookbooks with her first being a gift from her mom.

Cooking wasn't Kary's only passion when she was younger, she also skated competitively and enjoyed traveling, spending many summers visiting family in British Columbia, Canada.

Kary is a self-taught cook with some chef school training at The George Brown College Chef School.
