This week, it's all about sauce! Obviously, sauce is a huge topic, and we aren't going to hit everything today. First, Tom chats with friend & patron of the show Chantal Thomas about her famous Bathtub Pesto and the joys of cooking with seasonal ingredients. Also, a quick review of the American Barbecue Showdown and the ways that we can learn from cooking competition shows. Then, Tom calls up Elisabeth Nyveen, one of the producers of October Jones & Fish With Legs, to get a quick lesson in white sauces & rouxs. Roux? I think maybe just roux? I speak french, I should know this… Anyways. Bechamels and whatnot. Also, we talk a little about cranberry sauce and whether or not salad dressings count as a sauce!
Side-note: Obviously, the past week has been super stressful and exhausting for a lot of us, given the whole US election thing, so if we all seem a little tired on this episode, that's why. Hopefully you've been managing to take care of yourself through all of this, too! Remember that self-care is super important and that it's okay to turn off your phone for a bit and take a break from reading the news, even when something huge is happening. We love you!
