A monthly, "Gourmet" was first published in 1941 and offers its readers a wide variety of recipes, from the simple everyday to the more challenging for the true gourmet. In five hours, they are making five dishes, each taken from a different edition of the magazine: mozzarella (from scratch), pupu platter, buffalo salmon with watercress, Argentinian beef with chimichurri, and twelve layer mocha cake. Their guest chef taster is Pino Posteraro, the executive chef of the famed Cioppino's Restaurant in Vancouver and who was named 2008 chef of the year by "Vancouver Magazine". Despite the apology that Anna offers Chef Pino on his arrival - they failed in their attempt to make one of the dishes - would they be able to impress him with the other four? Their cause may be helped in what the chef doesn't know about their day. In addition, Anna and Kristina take a field trip to Mission Hill Estate & Winery in BC's Okanagan Valley to learn about pairing wine to food. They also product test rimmed baking sheets to see which material is the best to use. Written by Huggo See less
