"It took me an astonishing 4 hours, I sliced my finger resulting in a true bleeder (I was cutting butter), I bought the wrong kale but my brother in law taught me how to massage it (who knew? some kales have the life!) and all resulted in a pretty tasty dinner!

"So, the STARTING FROM SCRATCH Episode 1 saga is now complete with my home experiment done. To stream the show, go to TODAY all day or Peacock! The cooking adventures resume in early 2022…."
