There used to be a cooking show years ago - they showed the food being cooked but it was narrated by a woman with a beautifully cultured southern voice. I cannot remember the name of the show. This was years ago before there were so many cooking shows. Any one know?

Great chefs of the West. I just googled it and it can be found on you Tube. Loved her voice.

I just looked at an episode. I am not sure if this is the one I am thinking of, but it has been a while......the one I remember the lady had more of a 'South Carolina cultured drawl" type voice? Of course, it's been a while for my poor brain/memory!

Now I want to watch these though! Thank you for looking. Really similar in many ways.

Well the woman who narrated great chefs of the west has a southern accent. I don't know of anyone else and it's been years since I saw this show too.

Was it on PBS? I remember a PBS cooking show with a middle aged white woman who had a light southern accent. She had big fluffy white/ pale blonde hair.

yes that is her! I love that show as a teenager. Her voice was calming and soothing and she made the food look and taste good LOL.

Just watched the first episode of Great Chefs of the West. Not sure there is a cultured, South Carolina accent, but perhaps.

Perhaps the OP is thinking of Paula Deen.

She has a southern accent, but it sounds more Georgia than South Carolina to me.

Sounds like Nathalie Dupree.
