Quick and Low Carb Easy Gourmet

Episode | From: Low Carb and Lovin' It

Chef George Stella is joined by best-selling cookbook author Dana Carpender to prepare some of her favorite quick and easy, low carb gourmet meals. Together they make a heaping fresh spinach salad topped with toasted pecans; a feta-spinach salmon roast; a dish Dana calls "Little Mama's Side Dish" which uses chopped cauliflower as its base mixed with green pepper, chopped onion and sautéed bacon; and finally a simple dessert called strawberry cups topped with a pretty fanned strawberry and a dollop of homemade whipped cream. Top 5 Tips 1. Cauliflower is a great stand-in for potatoes and rice, adding texture while picking up the flavor of whatever it is cooked with. 2. Low carb is about freshness, but not everyone has time to prepare a fresh meal everyday. Stay healthy by preparing things in large quantities and saving the leftovers. Protein-packed chilis and meat roasts are easy to make and can last for days in the fridge. 3. Watch out for unsuspecting veggies. Onions are what George calls a "borderline vegetable" since it contains so many natural sugars. Limit yourself by using one onion for up to four different meals. 4. Olives are a great salty snack alternative for low carb diet programs. 5. Berries are an excellent choice for low carb dieters. They are lower in sugar than their fruit counterparts and are packed with anti-oxidants.

The Perfect Hamburger

Episode | From: How to Boil Water

Jack asks Frederic to teach her the do’s and don’ts to making the perfect hamburger and oven fries. Episode Guide Below you’ll find a helpful episode guide for cooking along with Frederic and Jack, as well as tips and recipe rescues. Equipment List: Large cast iron skillet or grill Wax paper 2 baking sheets Measuring spoons Flat wide spatula Cutting board Chef’s knife Tongs Pepper mill Tips: Forming patties: Don't overwork the meat. Mix and pat; don't squeeze. Overworking ground beef turns it into flavorless mush, as the heat from your hands and the friction of mixing breaks down the little bits of fat that provide the juice and flavor. Season meat before forming patties to more evenly distribute it throughout the burgers. Choosing ground meat: Ground chuck is perfect for a flavorful burger. For a juicy burger, you want meat with at least 20 percent fat. Potatoes: Use a high-starch baking potato such as Idaho or Russet for making oven-fried potatoes. Make sure potatoes are thoroughly dry before baking; excess moisture keeps the skins from crisping up. Bake potato wedges in a single layer, evenly spaced and not touching each other. Recipe Rescues: If your burgers are not seasoned enough - Test a small amount in the pan for seasoning before cooking entire batch.If your burgers are dried out - only Don’t press down on the burgers while cooking; that causes all the juices to leak out. Also, don't overmix the meat when forming patties.If your potatoes are soggy - Return them to the oven and raise the oven temperature.If the potatoes stick to the bottom of the pan - Run a flat metal spatula underneath them to loosen. Next time, toss with a little more oil.
