  • Опубликовано: 17 июн 2020
  • Expert chef Frank and home cook Lorenzo are back, swapping their recipes and ingredients for your culinary viewing pleasure. We gave Lorenzo $98 worth of ingredients and Frank's notebook to make the best burger he could (with an assist from food scientist Rose!) On the other side, Frank received $9 worth of materials and tried to improvise his way up to gourmet. Who achieved the most impressive results under these mixed up circumstances?

      Take Gordon Ramsay for example. Earned 23 or 26 Michelin stars with his restaurants. A cheese soup costs like 80 GBP at one of his places. BUT
      Watching him e.g. in India learning from village people local curry or cooking a simple scrambled egg he's enthusiasm, excitement is awesome, and how he was excited when made scrambled egg for local villagers in Peru and was clearly excited if they would like it.
      Now that is the passion for the profession. For them every ingredient is an ingredient. They are aware if any of them is expensive, but will treat the cheap ingredients with the same care.
      And this applies to Frank as well.
      What is important is the end result, the outcome.
      And that is why they are so great. And did not became snob with food.

    One of the things I appreciate about Frank is that he never scoffs or seems shocked by the lower cost recipes or ingredients. The culinary world can be incredibly elitist and classist, but he seems to avoid that kind of behavior. He is still able to elevate the dishes and show his knowledge, but it comes more from a place of passion and intent to educate, as opposed to showing off. And Lorenzo is just a ball of human sunshine. No complaints.

    These two could star in a sitcom. With Lorenzo's laugh.... PERFECT. Protect his laugh.

    Lorenzo is the kind of person that can never tell jokes because he always starts laughing before he finishes

      pretty sure it was odd shaped, if you have never grown beets, before the beet drop. like a potato, beets are dense and don't easily squish till cooked.
