    Not only does the onion skin give color, it also provides a natural quercitin, which provides antioxidant, Anti-inflammatory and immune- boosting properties.

    I used supper glue and some tape to keep the child safety button, permanently down on my stick blender. So worth it. That button is so annoying.

    I make my lasagna with homemade meat sauce and bechamel, 4 cheeses (ricotta, mozzarella, fontina and parmigiana reggiano. I also make a version with spinach or butternut squash. I need to get a new lasagna pan,; my dad accidentally dropped the last one and it shattered into a million pieces!😢 My dad has to watch his sodium, so I use potassium chloride instead of sodium chloride (regular salt)... It tastes exactly like regular salt.

    Sometimea I add little bit of pickle juice from tge jar. Gives nice tang to the bleu cheese dressing. Also try serving these great wings with long grain rice. I like my wings baked in the oven before I introduce hot sauce to them in the pan. A bit on a healthier side this way. Thanks for sharing this great video man!

    The best explanation for making beef stock on KZread. Exact information and a superb final product. I found this very useful. So easy to watch and the added bonus of a REAL professional chef, who doesn't 'BIG' himself up. As genuine as they come. Just a great presenter. Really enjoyed this video.

    Please, chef, we're not superhuman like you, touching that extremely hot iron pot with your bare hands. 😩 During lockdown, i burned my hands & feet, doing that, coz you know, "how hot can it be???" 🤦 Wasn't able to cook for a month. BRUTAL.

    Chef. I have amateur cook legit questions that nobody has answered specifically, as a chef. 😁 1. WTH exactly is "golden brown"?? I need a pic, if not an explanation. Golden & brown are not the same. Like a golden retriever & brown labrador. What looks like golden brown??? 2. WTH is "brown on all sides"?? Front & back? Front, back & edges/sides? If it's a 6-sided cubed meat, all 6 sides, or 2 sides enough??

    Hey Frank, Doug here. Thanks for the video. I just cut scapes off my plants and cut off bulbs and stalk ends, and want to make pesto for my friends 4th of July week. 2 weeks out. Should I refrigerate my cut scapes and make pesto closer to that day or make pesto now. Not sure how long scapes will last in my refrigerator before going bad for this recipe. Thanks!

    Less greasy = maintain 350 degrees (use a candy thermometer!), don't fiddle with them much, flip over delicately and lift out of oil...if you flood the pot with too many (5+) the oil temp goes down and the oil will soak into the dough more...hope that helps! thanks, Frank
