SCS 064 | Don't Salt Your Pasta Water, Hollandaise Isn't Mother Sauce, & The Best Way To Cook Tri-Tip

Stella Culinary School

Earlier today I jumped into our Facebook group on a whim to do a live stream and say hi. What was intended to be a few minutes of awkwardly waving at the camera before signing off turned into a pretty good time!

Some of the main topics discussed:

• Do you really need to salt your pasta water, and why I don't allow my cooks to do it in the restaurant!
• The controversy over hollandaise NOT being a mother sauce, and how we pick up the pieces of our broken hearts in the aftermath.
• My new favorite way to cook a tri-tip (it's really simple & fast).
• And how I lost 70+ pounds eating French toast!
