🔥Fire: How to Make S’Mores at the Office; The Smokiest Campfire Jaffles🏕️

Sorry in advance. But this episode is more disgusting than delicious. We bring up (almost literally) some 1950s to 1970s ‘recipes’ featuring tinned soup which should never see the light of day. But on the more positive side, Ben cracks a tinned soup conspiracy wide open!

We get sprinkling with DIY furikake made from Ingredipedia’s favourite fish and also blow our own minds with a dessert hack for the sweet-and-savoury fiends. There’s also a Maccas hack that will leave you questioning everything and also a big tip for a hidden and extremely delicious black-sesame snack that will change your life (no exaggeration).  [0:58] DIY Furikake[5:41] Big Mac… Hack?

Toasting marshmallows on company time? It’s possible. Ben unearths some relics from the past to cook ‘Smokeshow’ fire jaffles and rounds up the best fire-based restaurant experiences. Also, we get inspired by Lennox Hastie from Sydney’s Firedoor restaurant and try out one of his recipes.  This flammable episode of Ingredipedia is sponsored by Vivid Fire Kitchen: a celebration of flame-seared street food running as part of Vivid Sydney from May 24 to June 15 at The Goods Line in the Sydney CBD.

Ever freak out at the thought of ruining an expensive piece of meat? Or wondered why anyone would deep fry a smoked leg of ham? Same. We turned to meat expert and live fire cook Jess Pryles, who’s an Australian chef living in Texas, for the answers.  Aside from being the oracle on all things meat and fire, Jess is the founder of both Hardcore Carnivore, a brand of meat seasonings and rubs, and the Australasian Barbecue Alliance. And she's coming to Australia for some live cooking demonstrations over fire as part of Vivid Fire Kitchen.

Is there a difference between Nutella made here and Nutella imported from Italy? Why did we lose our minds about Nutella doughnuts in 2015?
