Expert chef Frank Proto from the Institute of Culinary Education and home cook John are swapping materials and hoping for the best! We gave John $250 worth of ingredients and Frank's recipe notebook, then asked him to recreate Frank's Pasta Bolognese as best he could. Luckily, food scientist Rose was available for a brief pep talk and consultation. On the other side, Frank received $25 worth of goods and tried to improvise his way up to gourmet. Who achieved the most impressive sauce under these mixed up circumstances?

    I like Frank, he's very open-minded and honest. "I wish the first time I made pasta and bread it was that good"
  • @melbell0865
    I like Frank as a chef: he’s not afraid to say things that other high level chefs would find “low brow”. This is a guy who likes using fresh ingredients, but also says he likes American cheese & boxed wine, and that’s awesome! You go Frank!

    Give that man a beer before he makes his own
  • @caglabudak838
    so cute how Frank was like "I hope John likes my pasta" like why would he not, he is literally a professional chef, WE LOVE FRANK
  • @creasdaddy
    Seriously, Frank needs his own weekly show where he makes a cheap meal look expensive.
  • @sillwullivan83
    Gotta say, impressed with John. He’s a level 1 chef and he made a meal which impressed Frank fairly well.

    "I control the salt now" Gordon Ramsay wants to know your location

    You cannot beat the name Rosemary Trout for a food scientist! Her name may as well be Apple Tartlet!
  • @aliced2331
    I love how Frank didn’t diss the ingredients given to him, he just got on with it respectfully 😌
  • @jolinelam5622
    Frank: Let me stroke the celery (strokes celery gently) Also Frank: I control the salt now (in his mind him being the salt master)
  • Frank’s most memorable moment in his life is getting the price right for the ingredients, followed by him having his first child and his wedding

    This is really just Frank teaching me how to make a fancy meal for $25.
  • @dynamitekid7847
    Man, Frank is just so lovely. Like this dude is an absolute kitchen pro but he truly loves to teach! Gotta respect the man. John did amazing too. I would be scared of wasting all that quality food lol.
  • "Just gonna add a couple of glugs of white wine." That is the perfect description of that amount.
  • @sivay4777
    Frank is so humble. Makes me smile always

    recipe for making Bolognese pasta: (called by an Italian) take a pan and put two turns of oil then take onion carrots and celery and sauté as soon as the onions turn golden put the meat after about 5 minutes put the wine and the tomato sauce let it go for about 48 hours on fire low, when the sauce is ready, take a pot, fill it with water and put the salt, leave it on the stove and as soon as it boils, throw the spaghetti and cook them for 10 minutes as soon as the pasta is ready, mix it with the meat. and here is the Italian pasta with ragù (bolognese)
