  • Опубликовано: 12 июл 2021
  • Pro chef Frank Proto from The Institute of Culinary Education and home cook Bianca are swapping supplies and hitting the kitchen! We set Bianca up with the finest ingredients from chef Frank’s kitchen along with his recipe for a decadent $183 pizza. With lots of ingredients (and questions to accompany them,) food scientist Rose dialed in for a tutorial teleconference to help Bianca along the way. Meanwhile over with chef Frank, a much more typical $17 worth of ingredients were being finessed in his quest to make a pizza up to his standards without the usual arsenal. There are truly no losers when it comes to pizza - but let's see which one came out best.

    For the four seasons, a little tip: Fresh Vegetables are gonna always be related to spring, meat is cured (like Prosciutto) in the winter when it is cool, mushroom picking season is the fall when there is the largest amount of detritus for the mushrooms to eat, and herbs are going to be associated with summer, they can be grown year round but the freshness is really meant to evoke summertime feelings.

    I love how Frank is just casually SO extra, but also the most supportive 'partner' in these videos. I appreciate how he shows that support in decidedly foodie ways. "I canned my own tomatoes and present them for your use as a symbol of my faith in your skills," may not be an exact quote but it's definitely that energy. Also Frank grinding his own flour or making a point of mentioning that he canned the tomatoes isn't even a surprise at this point. It's like, my guy, you grew a whole tree just to carve a wooden spoon for use in your home kitchen, of COURSE you can your own tomatoes!

      well, they're always using kosher salt which isn't like table salt in that while you see a large amount, its actually just large flakes, which unlike table salt isn't as strong per say since you can easily over salt with table salt as the crystals are much finer with no air voids unlike kosher salts flakes.

      This is also highly unnecessary to be honest. In the end it is just water with CO2 bubbles, any proper water will do. Here in Germany the tap water is regulated that highly that most of the times it is better than bottled water so just get it from a tap, carbonize it and it is cheaper than the fancy Italian water and most likely just as good or even better. And high quality tap water is not exclusive for Europeans, US will have it too. That's 8$ saved.

    As an Italian from Naples (the city of pizza) I find it funny how the chef is proud about the crispiness of his pizza, while in reality we consider a crispy pizza to be bad, it must be soft.

    I love how simple Bianca's ingredients are! It is not very easy to find fancy ingredients (and cheese is very expensive) in my country, so it is so refreshing to see ingredients I could actually find.
