$248 vs $15 Breakfast Tacos: Pro Chef & Home Cook Swap Ingredients | Epicurious

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Pro chef Saúl Montiel from Cantina Rooftop and home cook Lorenzo are swapping recipes and hitting the kitchen to start the morning right with breakfast tacos. We provided Lorenzo with all the ingredients necessary to make chef Saúl’s over-the-top $248 taco recipe, sending only $15 worth of materials back the other direction. Could our all-star home cook rise to the challenge or did chef Saúl’s breakfast tacos rule the day?

    Cilantro macho is the same cilantro as the one with the flat leave. They're not different varieties. Is just that in USA they preffer the mild flavor of the young cilantro plant (flat leave) vs. in latinamerica we prefere the strong flavor of the mature cilantro plant. It's just about the timing of the harvest. When the plant matures, the leaves turn into that spiky shape and get stronger flavor.

The food and laughs would be amazing. I would offer the 4th seat to the Rock when he’s in the ATL Area in the hopes he would bring Teramana Anello, which is always sold out here. These 3 extroverts would would perfectly showcase the fact that I am the funniest MF.

    I like that y'all had the two meet up afterwards and try each other's food! I always wanted to see that in the past 😁
