Melissa Clark: Chef Interrupted

The Banter

The Guys talk about Francis’ decadent evening the night before with some industry mavens and a hog’s head.

The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys talk with writer Melissa Clark about her new cookbook Chef Interrupted which simplifies chef’s recipes for the home cook. The discuss cooking shortcuts, macaroni and cheese and kitchen gadgets that make your meal preparation easier and prettier.

The Inside Track

The Guys are loyal readers of Melissa’s articles and they love the concept of her new cookbook. Mark even gave her a tip.

Mark: The fact that water should never touch your pepper was one of those things we just classically learned in my family. In my family, we would wash with olive oil. 

Melissa:  That is such a good idea! If I had a recipe from you in this book, that's the kind of thing that would come out in the conversation we'd have. And I'd write it down because I think that's brilliant!
