    my favorite part of theses videos is that no matter what level the chef is, they're always happy with what they made! i think that's the best part of cooking; making something and stepping back to think "wow, i made this!" and getting to enjoy your hard work!

      @@tarkan6729 It wasn't that it was awful, it was that it wasn't cooked. Didn't she say she only put it in the boiling water for ten seconds? Sigh... Her recipe was terrible anyway if you actually watch what she did. I thought she was learning something from culinary school, but apparently not.

    Frank describing how he invented salt :
    I was there 3000 years ago. I was searching for food by the great Atlantic by the cost of Morocco . As was laying on the shore after a long walk as the ocean splattered water on my body . As the water splashed on my body like mallet on a drum . The water entered my mouth . I sensed a unique but slightly plesent sensation on the tip of my tounge
    I was in great curiosity to deeply understand this feeling so I filled my bottle with the ocean water and went to my shelter . After several years of research and experiment I had invented what will be known as the frist few grains of salt .
    Since then I have been perfecting the production and uses of the finest quality of salt

A pasta machine is one of the staples in any professional kitchen, that emphasises speed and consistency above anything else. This is a first for me though, seeing Chef Frank use an electric pasta machine - I believe he's used a hand-crank variant before on the channel.

    Onika's use of lasagna noodles is creative. I think I'm going to try that, but make a few adjustments. First I'll only boil the lasagna noodles once and then after putting the filling in and cutting them into squares, I'll sautee the ravioli with sliced cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, salt, pepper, spinach and top with cheese. I'll try that or maybe breading and frying the ravioli and serve it with a marinara dipping sauce.
