$340 vs $25 Po' Boy: Pro Chef & Home Cook Swap Ingredients | Epicurious

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Two longtime favorites return as expert chef and chef instructor Frank Proto trades Po' Boy recipes with home cook extraordinaire Lorenzo. We gave Lorenzo $340 worth of ingredients to reproduce Frank's recipe while sending only a modest $25 worth of stuff back the other way. How will Lorenzo's skills measure up to Frank's expert level recipe? Will Frank's "Po' Boy Bites" come together and steal the show?

    Yeah, it could have Lorenzo fail at playing bad cop, and Frank tending to a personal tree farm in order to manufacture his own sheets of paper for the criminal dossiers.

As for the Tony’s Chachere it’s easy to make Cajun seasoning and by making it you control the salt content
