Getting Scrappy!
Season 2 Episode 1 | 8m 7s | CC
Sustainability chef and PBS TV host Joel Gamoran raids Rachel Belle’s home fridge. Together they turn trash-bound food scraps like woody asparagus ends and potato peels into a restaurant-worthy meal. With his zero-waste cooking hacks, Joel proves that the stems, peels and cores we mindlessly throw away can be transformed into gourmet creations. An inspiring and environmental way to save some cash!
