1 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: All right, guys, welcome to Always Hungry from My Heart Radio. 2 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: My name is Bobby Flay and I'm here with my 3 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: daughter and co host. I'm Flay and I'm Always Hungry. 4 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: Sophie and I gather around my stove to cook together. 5 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 1: Well you cook, I asked the questions, and eat the 6 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: food and does any food left? We come to the 7 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: table together to share a meal, connect as a family, 8 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: and tell the stories that matter to us. Okay, so 9 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: today we're talking about, um, we're talking about this project 10 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,880 Speaker 1: that I'm that I'm involved in with this company called 11 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 1: Misfits Market and explain to everyone what Misfits is for 12 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: people that don't know. So, Misfits is a company that 13 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 1: I became aware of during the initial moments of the pandemic. UM. Basically, 14 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: it's their belief that we have a broken food system 15 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: and that their goal is to save people. Um. Well, 16 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: first of all, they want to rescue foods that would 17 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: ordinarily be thrown out. This is the uh, the facts 18 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 1: that they live by, which is of the food grown 19 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: in this country is thrown out. So when you think 20 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: about like well, I mean honestly, when you when you 21 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: just you know, it's easy to just say, have a 22 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: blanket statement. But obviously there's reasons for everything, of course. 23 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: But but then again, in this case, what they're saying 24 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,960 Speaker 1: is that you know, of the food grown in this 25 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: country can't be sold. It's thrown out. It's thrown out 26 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: and alive. It has to do with the fact that 27 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: you know it's it's still high quality, it just doesn't 28 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: it's not beauty contest perfect. So like, you know, the 29 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: grocery store is like if there's a blemish on an apple, 30 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 1: or the apples too small, or they won't they won't 31 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: use them, which is just you know, painful. So Misfits 32 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: comes along and they're like, Okay, we're going to rescue 33 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: and save these vegetables and fruits, etcetera. And we can 34 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: pass along like savings of or granted produced to the consumer. 35 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: It sounds like a win win to me. So I 36 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,399 Speaker 1: started talking to them early on because I was really 37 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: interested about what they were doing. And so you know, 38 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 1: I've been working with them for over the last year 39 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: and I just I love my relationship with them because 40 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: they really have it's a really nice business, but they 41 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: also have like, uh, I just like their approach to 42 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: the world. Um and uh, you know, they basically have 43 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: like a two pronged mission, you know, like too to 44 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: provide you know, affordable access to fight the food waste crisis. 45 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: I mean that's that's basically the idea. And then um, 46 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: you know, and they're constantly looking for like new farms 47 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: and producers to work with because it's like, you know, 48 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: if you're a farmer and like if there's if there's 49 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: a certain percentage of each crop that you can't sell 50 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: to the people that you used to selling too, you know, 51 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: maybe misfits is the place that you can salvage some 52 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: of it, you know what I'm saying. So the reason 53 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: why I got involved was not only because I was interested, 54 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: but also because is I felt like I could help 55 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: people who are getting these misfits Misfits boxes. So basically 56 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: the way it started was and it's changed a little 57 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: bit now, but basically you get this, You would get 58 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: this Misfit Markets box filled with fruits and vegetables that 59 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: were kind of random, and then obviously that's changed a 60 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: little bit. You can ask for certain things, etcetera. They 61 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: also have proteins and they have like entire like you know, 62 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: dry goods department now, so it's become like a full 63 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: service market. That again, even in those cases, they're passing 64 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: down savings too, things that you know, we're not being 65 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: sold in the mainstream, which is you know, just it's 66 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: it's a it's a it's a good thing for everybody. 67 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: But like, for instance, so like if you would get like, 68 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: you know, some zucchini and a cali flower, some delicotta squash, 69 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: and like a couple of heads of freez a lettuce 70 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: which is white chicory, and you're not really like um, 71 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: well experienced person in the kitchen, it can be daunting, right, 72 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: So basically that's what I do, especially since these fruits 73 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: and vegetables whatever are not the cream of the crop 74 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: in terms of beauty. Sometimes when you do these videos 75 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: to help people understand what's in their box, Like I 76 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: don't even recognize some of these vegetables. I'm like, I've 77 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: never cooked with these before. Like have you used delicato 78 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: squash before? No, But the recipe you did for them 79 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: I loved with the pumpkin spices. Yeah, it looks so good. 80 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: So for instance, there's lots of squash in these boxes. 81 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: So we had spaghetti squash. Have you cooked with Spagheti's wasash. 82 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: Spaghetti squash looks like it looks like a small missile. 83 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: It's like it's like this um sort of oval yellow 84 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: squash is very very firm. And the way to the 85 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: way to cook spaghetti squash is to cut it in 86 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: half and then season it, put some oil on it 87 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: or whatever, butter, put it in the oven and bacon, 88 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: and so when it gets really soft, the squash comes 89 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: out really easily and it has like this sort of 90 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: stringy almost it's a string. So you know, hence the name. 91 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: It looks like spaghetti. And people do recipes where they 92 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: treat spaghetti squash like spaghetti, where like you know, tom 93 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Um. I actually made a dish 94 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 1: with shrimp. I made spaghetti squash with some shrimp and 95 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: some broth. It was so delicious. Um. And then um 96 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: I also made you know, you talked about the delicata squash, 97 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: which is a beautiful squash. But that squash gets cooked 98 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 1: very very differently than say a spaghetti squash. And you know, 99 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 1: you can leave the skin on. It's very very beautiful. 100 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: I sometimes I leave it on, sometimes I leave it off, 101 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: depends if it's if it's too firm, but it's great 102 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: to either saute or to roast. And then uh, I 103 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: made a pumpkin spice mixture to put on top of it. 104 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: It's it's a really great side dish. Okay, So I'm 105 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: wanna make a salad. It's something we don't usually do 106 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: and always hungry. I'm sure why we're usually making tarts 107 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: and cash potatoes. But one of the things I do 108 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: for Misfits Market is I create recipes using a lot 109 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: of produce et cetera or whatever, you know, whatever they 110 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 1: have some in the market. So it just gives people 111 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: the idea on what to use because you get a 112 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: box of vegetables and unless you're, you know, incredibly well 113 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 1: versed in all these vegetables, it could be a little 114 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: bit of a struggle. Yeah. So the first we're gonna 115 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: do is make a dressing. So I'm gonna make a 116 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: pomegranate red wine dressing, which I love. I use this 117 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: a lot for basically everything. It's gonna start with a 118 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: little Dijon mustard um some pomegranate molasses, which is basically 119 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: reduced pomegranate is ues. So it's like it's tart and sweet. 120 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: Is there a lot of sugar in that. Um not really, 121 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 1: let's see what it says. I mean, it's concentrated pomegrand 122 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: juice and there's some sugar, some stic acid, red wine 123 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: vinegar for for the acidity of this, of course, smalt 124 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,119 Speaker 1: and pepper, and then some olive oil. And what's great 125 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: is that, you know, they started out just basically fruits 126 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 1: and vegetables that they were rescuing. We'll talk about that, 127 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: but but now they you know, they it's the whole market. 128 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: There's proteins, there's spices, all kinds of dry goods, oils, 129 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: vineger and stuff like that. All right, let's get to 130 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: the to the heart of the matter. So we have 131 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: some end dive. I'm love end dive. If there's the 132 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: endive on a menu and ordering it. Did you have 133 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: the endive caesar salad at horses So good? Great, really 134 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: good ideas. Yeah, it's like an endive caesar. Yeah. Yeah. 135 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: So we're gonna say some and dive. So we we 136 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: got some some green apples, nice teas up. This is 137 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: a good crunchy salad. There's I like crunchy salads. It 138 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: doesn't like a crunchy salad. That's what chop salads are 139 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: so popular. Do you know what frees a is? Yeah? 140 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: I love free How you describe it? Um? How do 141 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: I describe it? It's like that's tough. I don't know, 142 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: like I think of like sprouts almost. It's not that obviously, 143 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: but it's so m It's in the chickery family, so 144 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: it's it's got got like a little bitterness. It's like 145 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: it looks some people call it white chicory because it's 146 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: got like um, if you see green, chicery eats green. 147 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: But freeze a is white and it's in the chicery family. 148 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: It's a little bit um bitter. I love frees um. 149 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: And one of the most classic frieze a dishes is 150 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: something called freeze or Don't, which is a French bistro 151 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: dish where it's freeze a. It's bacon, it's a poached egg. 152 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: You make the dressing with the with the bacon fat, 153 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: so it's like the bacon fat, mustard, little vinegar. I 154 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: used to eat you see that so much going up 155 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: in Connecticut at Martel, a little French bistros. So good. 156 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: It's a classic dish. And so you know I did 157 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: I did a video with you know, using freeze because 158 00:08:54,679 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: again it's not just your classical lettuce. Yeah, and then 159 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 1: they came out with a whole line of spices that 160 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: they bought from this company. And again like I did, 161 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: like a tutorial on spice racks, like what and I 162 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: have you know, I have this whole thing about spices 163 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: that like, basically very few people in the world have 164 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 1: spices that are as pungent as they should be because 165 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: they've been sitting on your shelf. It's too too long, 166 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: years and years. They lose their flavor. And you know, look, 167 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: I don't expect everybody to grind their own whole spices 168 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: whenever they're gonna use it. I mean that that most 169 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: people are not going to do that. But the bottom 170 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: line is, and this is not a this is not 171 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: a cheap undertaking, but like it like every once in 172 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: a while, you need to clean out the spices that 173 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: have been there for years. And you know, you have 174 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: some of those spices have been there for five years 175 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: that you haven't even seen because in the back of 176 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: the cupboard. Throw them out, started start over, get some 177 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 1: fresh spices in there so they actually so that they 178 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: actually taste like something. I mean, I have the same 179 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: problem like, I have so many spices in my house 180 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: and you know, some of them I haven't used for 181 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: like a year and a half, and I'm like, I 182 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: gotta get rid of this. You know, it doesn't taste 183 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: like anything. Um, And that's like, you know, I also 184 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: I also think, like, you know, people have these spice 185 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 1: they buy these spice racks and it's like fifty spices 186 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: basically going to use twelve of them. You were talking 187 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: before though about how missfits is adding other meats and whatnot. 188 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: They're proteins, they have you know, chickens and beef, etcetera. Yeah, 189 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: that's really cool. Yeah, I mean they want to be 190 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: a full service, you know, marketplace. So I was making 191 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: speaking of not using meat or using doing dishes that 192 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: we think of meat, but um, using vegetables instead. Like 193 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 1: one of my one of my go twos is eggplant 194 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: millonaise or eggplant parmesan. You know, because eggplant is one 195 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: of those great ingredients that can really emulate the texture 196 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: of meat because it's firm, has that kind of has 197 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: that has sort of that same texture, especially if you're 198 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 1: wrapping it in like you know, flour, egg and breadcrumbs 199 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: at or you're you're you're you're you're topping it with 200 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese and baking it like for 201 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: eggplant parmeer genre which just absolutely love um. And then 202 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: I did a dish less this summer that you didn't like? 203 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: Which one? Remember it? The coccio pepe with corn? Oh?

Oh yeah, you don't like that burger? 206 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: A lot of people like it, right, it's good. I 207 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: just I'm just not going to have that instead of 208 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: oh no, you neither. I'm sorry.

Like 215 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: it kind of like you you get a box and 216 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: then you're like, all right, well this is what I 217 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: gotta use. It forces you to use what you and 218 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 1: that's basically how chefs work. You know. It's like if 219 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: you look at my refrigerator, like I can make three 220 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: or four things out of each thing, and that you know, 221 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 1: it sort of stretches your ingredients. It helps you out 222 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: of economically, but it also makes you think, you know, 223 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: creatively and so and I think that when you when 224 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: you start getting ingredients like in Misfits boxes, that you're 225 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: not sure what they are, it forces you to understand 226 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: what you're doing. So, like I remember one of the 227 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 1: first boxes I got it was I got a head 228 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: head of cauliflower. So what did I do with the califlower? 229 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: I roasted it. I used some Indian spices on it, 230 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: and I put some dried fruits on it, some nuts. 231 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: It was delicious. I mean, you know, califlower is a 232 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: great canvas for like lots of big flavor. So you know, 233 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: what are you doing?

Why don't you give me a test? Okay, 298 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: so you give me the ingredients, like you give me 299 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: the ingredients that you just ordered. You're gonna order, and 300 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: it would be like, what's the first thing I think of? Wait, 301 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: hold on one second. Okay, so I have acorn squash. 302 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: I've never made acorn squash. Acorn squash, I mean acorn squash. 303 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: Cut it in half, take the seeds out, roast in 304 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: the oven. You can put like your your autumn spices 305 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: on top of it. If you want brush it. Put 306 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 1: a little butter in there, maybe a little chili pepper. 307 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: Roast them delicious. Okay I mentioned this before, but what 308 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,919 Speaker 1: about parsnips. Parsnips I think like parsnips, like in some 309 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 1: ways you can treat them like carrots. In some way 310 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: you can't because they're there. It's a rude vegetable that's 311 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: a little bit starch here. So what you can do 312 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,719 Speaker 1: is you can peel them and then blanch them so 313 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: that they're soft, and then roast them like pan. Roast 314 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 1: them in a pan with some spices like um. You 315 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: can put like you know, coriander, maybe like tumeric, and 316 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: some maybe some some chili powder and serving with like 317 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: with like a minted yogurt sauce on the side, so 318 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,239 Speaker 1: you get the spiciness, you get the crunchiness. But then 319 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: also you can also slice them really thinly and fry 320 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: them their delicious fried pars them so great. Interesting, Okay, 321 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: I never would have thought of that. Um, I'm not 322 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 1: the biggest fan of pears. But I have Asian pairs 323 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: in here. Yeah, so Asian pairs are different than like 324 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: domestic pairs. So in Asian pair they use a lot 325 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: of Asian pair and Korean cuisine in marinades. So what 326 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: you could do is you can make you know, like uh, 327 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: marinated short ribs like Korean short ribs, and you put 328 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: the Asian pair into the into the marinade. That's what 329 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: you should use those for. Um bok choy baby bok 330 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: choy blanche and then very quickly saute with ginger, garlic, scallions, 331 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: little soy sauce, sesame all done, maybe some sesame seeds, um, 332 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: some tuscan kale, a little kale salad, make a kal caesar. 333 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: Why not? Well, you can make like Jonathan Waxman Jonathan 334 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 1: Laxman's kale salad. Let's got like toasted bread crumbs, lots 335 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: of palmers on cheese, garlic, lemon, delicious, um, yellow potatoes, 336 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: yellow potatoes, just make smashed potatoes, do scallions, maybe a 337 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 1: little bit of cram fresh or sour cream, maybe some 338 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: bacon on top. This is so fun. Okay, um, some 339 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: baby spinach again, another salad. I mean, the thing about 340 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: baby spinach is if you cook it, it just melts, 341 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: the weighted nothing. I think the nice tenderness. I think that. 342 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: I think using baby spinach is you should use it raw. 343 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: And she definitely use it in a salad, like how 344 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: you made this salad exactly so this salad has end dive, 345 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: pomegranate seeds, green apple, and then a pomegranate dressing with 346 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: some walnuts and a little bit of blue cheese. I 347 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 1: also have romaine hearts in here. I don't have a grill, 348 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: but I loved like a grilled romaine salad. You do. 349 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: That's so weird. You ever have that? I don't. I 350 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm I found it in like a maybe 351 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,360 Speaker 1: like a no where did I have it? I don't 352 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 1: know make it? Maybe? I don't know. But I love 353 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: that I've done that, but I don't really It's not 354 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: something I really think about. I think it's so good. 355 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 1: But I think the thing about baby romaine hearts is 356 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: that those are the most crispy and tender parts of 357 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: the romain. So it's like you're you're they're peeling back 358 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: all of the big leafy romaine that can be just 359 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: like kind of limp and not not so great. And 360 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: so you can you can use the remain hearts to 361 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: make obviously to make a salad, but like it. Also 362 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: you can like you can use them as little boats 363 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: to put like things in them. You know, you can 364 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: like roasted peppers, like roasted peppers and goat cheese. You 365 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 1: can put some chicken salad in the middle of them. 366 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: You know, anything like that works really nicely. Zucchini zucchini, 367 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: So the first thing I think about is making zucchini possible, um, 368 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,199 Speaker 1: because to me that's you know, but you can make 369 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 1: zucchini chips also, yeah, really thinly sliced a little bit 370 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: of flour and cornstarch, fry them, serving with like some 371 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: dipping sauce. So good do we go through all of it? 372 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have some grape tomatoes. I mean once you 373 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: make your your famous uh your famous the TikTok feta 374 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: cheese tomato pasta, so good. Yes, I mean the other 375 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: thing I like to do with great tomatoes is cut 376 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: them in half and cook them very slowly in some 377 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: olive oil, so you almost confeeding them. They're so good. 378 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: And and put them on top of like white beans 379 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,239 Speaker 1: or something. Sounds so good, okay. And then I have 380 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 1: Myer lemons and uh naval oranges, make Myer lemonade. What 381 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: Myra lemonade? Do you ever think of that? No? Um? 382 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: So good? Also you can like Meyer lemons are great 383 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: for just to make a pan sauce like a lemon, 384 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 1: like white wine, buttered pan sauce with Myer lemons. You know, 385 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 1: maya lemons have that orange. It's like lemon with an 386 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: orange kiss on it. You know, it's like so good. Okay, 387 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: thanks for your health. So there you go, flash around. 388 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: Just just just keep rescuing the foods at misfits markets. 389 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: That's the key.
