    Some time they should do the swap with two pro chefs like Esther and Frank, or Palak, and see what they do with each other's absurd ingredients. They would probably be very happy getting to actually make something extravagant.

    i think this is very important to note, if you are going to use a towel like he did make sure you dont use fabric softener in the dryer or air dry them, and id even go as far as not using fabric softener in the wash either, and use unscented soap. I made this mistake one time straining soup, wanted a broth as clear was water and i was like I'll just do it like the chefs at the restaraunt i worked at, and boom my soup tasted like april fresh downy with a hint of outdoor fresh bounce dryer sheets.

      And if we're being historically accurate, the Alfredo recipe, just like spaghetti & meatballs and chicken parm, was invented in America by Italian immigrants that then found its way back to Italy. But becuase it is a food that could have existed before the establishment of the Atlantic trade route it feels like it has more history to it than it really does.

      It totally would depend on how one would use that , the principal of coating cheese on a pasta wheel is by adding alcohol and setting it aflame so that the cheese melts. So more the flame more cheese irrespective of your pasta's portion, you can use it till you reach the last few inches of the wheel cause below that is a layer of wax. Hope this helps

      Honestly, italian pasta is just average in taste.

The only thing I liked were the pizzas and desserts. I would say even american pasta tastes WAY better.

    His hands gently and stealthly guiding that piece of pasta to his mouth at 9:40 was incredibly funny to me

    The most expensive one has just four ingredients. Never let Frank near a cheese wheel again.

    I find it odd that Emily has more ingredients than Frank when it’s usually the opposite. I also think that Frank’s experience as an instructor is helping him in terms of how he presents himself and his explanation of his dishes

    Frank is insane and I love it. He seems like the kind of guy who'd turn something as simple as a glass of water into a 200 step science experiment just to see what he can create. I can already imagine.. "Step 1: Pack up ice axe fly to Antarctica to harvest some pure glacier ice.."

    Counting the whole cheese wheel into the overall price is like serving a cheeseburger on a supercar and saying that the burger costs 1 million dollars

      well technically they need to use the entire wheel to mix the pasta

      Cheese wheel pasta is actually a thing, so they kinda need the whole wheel.

      I think it's fine for this dish in particular, what I think is cheating is when they pair something with like a gold diamond studded spoon you can keep, or a bottle of champagne that doubles the price

    Sweet! I was wondering what to do with that 80lb wheel of parmesan in my fridge. Now I have a recipe for it. Thanks, Frank!
