Chrissy Teigen shows food passion through cookbook 'Craving'

Chrissy Teigen's much-anticipated cookbook 'Craving' is officially out on February 23 as a proof of her passion for food.

The 30-year-old model said that she spent the past three years trying to prove to people her love for food and cooking, reports People magazine.

Teigen added that she has a passion for food, which is beyond just wanting to be a model in the food world.

For the star, that meant making sure chefs didn't think she was trying to be one of them because she hates to be a "proper chef" and working "their ass off" in the restaurants.
