"This picture shows a tomato that I grew, and then I put it on a bed of sprouts that I also created, and it's on bread that a friend of mine made. So there you go. It's a sandwich of love and nurturing and delight. And I encourage everybody to try to pour some dirt in the pot and put a little seed and give it love. It's a great feeling. If you have any thoughts or experiences about this, ...
"So we're eating fresh vegetables all the time. I brought in green beans and fresh carrots, fresh potatoes. We had potatoes, roasted potatoes from the garden just last week. I'm so excited because we have corn growing in our backyard. I can't believe it. We have corn. You know, we have corn and green beans and we have okra growing and we even have pumpkins. We have onions and tomatoes and just...
"There's a crisis in this country with food management, and this is a great example of a country, France, that is really leading the way for this. On a personal level, I really try to plan my shopping responsibly. If I have extra food and I think it's going to waste, I'll call a neighbor, literally, who has kids, or I'll have a gathering."
"I went to Google and I found a bunch of pictures, but here's one. Except when I saw it, it was kind of hanging on these little skewers, and it looked much better than this. Yeah, that was my food that I only tried once and I never will again."
"And I'll scoop out half the veggies, maybe a third of the veggies with the broth. My mouth is watering. And then I'll add cashews. And I'll put all of that in like a nutribullet and make it really creamy. Just you gotta let it pulverize all the way down so it's not even grainy."
"I thought I would respond to this prompt about a great culinary moment in a fictional book. And the book that immediately came to my mind was written by Ian Fleming. And the book was Dr. No and featured his main character of all of the Bond books, James Bond. And James Bond was a ladies man. He was a great spy, a secret agent."
"They're all about paprika and turmeric and pepper and ginger and coriander and the sweetness of apricots and raisins and all that mixed together with tomatoes and oil, and it's so delicious. And I do cook a lot of food with this flavor profile. But I just love when you have a book that's so storied. And the wonderful thing about this book, if you ever pick it up, is that you feel such conne...
"And then I will maybe have like an Italian style taco, like maybe a taco with some pasta and some Alfredo sauce and chicken Alfredo tacos and stuff like that. So I would have a. A taco menu that's divided by continents, and I think that would be one of the best taco stands or restaurants around."
"Then she had potato salad, she had pistachio salad, green beans, you know, just rolls. And we had the olives and the pickles and the nuts. And I mean, it was a lot. So when I think of my grandma's cooking, that's part of my bringing up that I have decided to carry on with me. And each holiday, I cook a big meal."
"Hey, guys. Welcome to another episode of the Coach Dan Show. You know, today, I really look forward to doing this prompt Today. When I seen this prompt, I decided to go ahead and tell you the story about my grandmother and my grandmother's cooking makes me smile when I think about it because, you know, when I was growing up as a kid, going to my grandmother's house was one of the most thing...
"I love bacon and I actually don't eat bacon like that, but I like bacon. I think because of that little crispiness and the little flavor is kind of like a. It's kind of like. Like a little warm felt at home flavor, if that makes any sense. You know, I grew up in a house that ate pork quite a bit. Pork chops, bacon. My mom cooked things like pig feet, pigtails. I didn't eat that though...
"Ice cream. Ice cream. We all scream for. Ice cream is my go to. It is my favorite thing to eat. Happy, sad. I like ice cream. I've never met an ice cream cone that I didn't like. I get very pacific when it comes to my ice cream cream and how I want it made. It's hot fudge at the bottom, Strawberry, black walnut, strawberry topping, whipped cream, two cherries, no nuts. Talk about a burst o...
"Just cut them and grill them, and they'll start to caramelize and you'll see when the grill marks happen and the heat is on and it's gotten kind of soft, then you pull them off. You could drizzle some reduced balsamic on top of it, a little sprig of thyme to bring out that kind of like, sweet sour thing that. That savory thing. Also rosemary works as well. And then you dollop a little bit o...
"In fact, it affects the way I order the rest of the meal, because if I know it's coming, I don't want to fill up. Next time you're in a restaurant and you see flourless chocolate cake, make sure they heat it up and put a little dollop of ice cream or whipped cream on it. And I think you're going to have to come back here and tell me your experience. Mmm. Yummy."
"And I'm thinking about this particularly when I reminisce about the times I've cooked with Yotam Altolenghi's book Jerusalem, because it is so rich with Middle Eastern spices and flavors that take me back to something that's older than me. It has a primal connection to my DNA, I think. And that's why when I use it, I feel grounded and connected to something so much bigger than me. And I'...
