Episode 8 is here, and it might be our most panic-worthy one yet.
This week, Chef Daniela and Grant welcome Michael, a professional traveler and 20-year friend of Daniela's, to raid his Florida fridge.
What they found? A lot of coffee creamer, a suspicious amount of Cool Whip, jarred pasta sauce, and just enough ingredients to pull off something genuinely delicious.
In this episode:
Daniela goes OFF on pre-minced ”jarlic ”(and the internet claps back)
The jar sauce confession that nearly ended the episode
A surprisingly genius Thai peanut sauce using fridge scraps
Ground beef thai fried rice with charred peppers & onions — a full spring meal from almost nothing
Tip of the Week: Fresh garlic vs. ”jarlic”
There is NO comparison and what to use instead if mincing isn't an option for you.
This week's recipe: Thai Peanut Ground Beef Fried Rice with Charred Peppers & Onions
