[@cakes9122]

I would really enjoy that!

[@lisahoshowsky4251]

I love this idea! I wonder what hardiness zone they’re in though, I see the UK is anywhere from a 6 to 9 which is a big range. If they’re closer to a 6 it might only be a May to October outdoor growth period with seed starts indoors in maybe March but 9 is quite temperate. It’d definitely be nice to get a better glimpse into the process! Especially since they’re using the food in a mystery box it feels like an important link they could touch upon more.

I like that Ben was giving some advice throughout.

It honestly felt like watching two pretty good Cooks follow a recipe for new ingredients they were unfamiliar with, which was nice!

[@janelle4835]

@Evi1 M4chine I was thinking the same thing because sometimes I feel that way about my garden produce. When it’s a smaller garden you watch each vegetable make its way into the world and you want it to be honored! I get 15-20 zucchini and I have watched them all from the beginning.

[@TheSongwritingCat]

Same. For unfamiliar ingredients, it makes sense to give them the kind of cooking advice you might find on the packaging rather than let them waste food cooking something inedible.

[@Sunnylyndis]

I would love a cookign class like this. The beans were new to me but everything else I knew of. I like watching a lot of cooking shows, reading about food etc to where I don't always find foods I'm completely unfamiliar with. It doesn't mean I personally have cooked with it. But I love learning about new ingredients and being told how to use them and how they act. I just like learning... which is why I really like Ben's explanations :)

Jamie just had a brilliant idea for a new series. “Dish rewind”. Go back and revisit dishes from your challenges that you made under less than ideal circumstances and make them better. Same dish so this time you know what the end product will be.

[@Konnichiwa-gwan]

[@RICDirector]

Slice very thin (any summer squash), lay out on a plate like scales from a fishskin, microwave until edges caramelize. Butter and serve.

[@LadyPenumbra]

In the Southeastern United States we make a dish called squash casserole. It is thinly sliced patty pan, zucchini, or any other thin-skinned "squash" collectively known as "summer squash." It is thinly sliced squash baked in a bechamel sauce. Flavors and methods as varied and guarded as curry mixes in the rest of the world.

[@A16AdamWalker]

Episode Pitch: If you're familair with Daren McGrady, or just visited the feature section of a newspaper/website, there's a lot out there about Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's favourite food - so idea would be for the normal to try and recreate a dish fit for royalty each - I imagine Ben would love seeing them try, and Janice being treated like a Queen. Alternative Suggestion - Energy Saver Challenge, the boys (including Ben) have to come up with a mid-week or weekend meal that uses the least Gas or Electricity levels possible - both to show smarter ways of cooking (such as how it's more energy efficient to cook baked potatoes in a microwave), and the challenges many will face this winter.

[@SortedFood]

These are great suggestions, thanks so much 😀

@Evi1 M4chine Everyone I know who has an allotment gives veg out regularly. One guy I know who works in A&E literally has so much stuff he just leaves it in the staff room. Anyone who has had an allotment knows that there's only so much of it you can eat before it goes off and only so much room in the freezer!

[@jaciem]

Honestly an entire Series with Ebbers on growing own food at home would be fantastic! Especially given cost of living increases for next year or 2!

[@MissingmyBabbu]

It would be! I live at home, and I can't work, but I've set aside benefits money already so I can buy some seeds and starts for a veggie garden. I've got a raised garden bed and some pots, but some ideas of what to grow, how to know when to plant what, and all that would be brilliant. The Farmer's Almanac website gives good advice on spacing for plants, and when the growing season starts for a given area, but beyond that I'm always stumped.

Seems like the boys made some unintentional vegetarian dishes which is nice for those who are looking to try out some different veg in their routine. They had the option to put a meat protein in there but went a different route. For Jamie, I'm surprised since we all know how much he loves meat. I'm not vegetarian, but like to have side options with meals or just don't want to fuss with cooking meat sometimes. I like how they both cooked the funky squash. Definately makes a plate look exciting with new veg in the mix.

I love borlotti beans. I mostly make my grandmother’s bean soup with them which is very simply borlotti beans boiled with a little carrot and chard and some salt until tender then partially mashed (which she started doing as my dad and uncle kept picking out the vegetables) and then cook broken up spaghetti separately and stir it through. Finish with pepper and check the salt, then drizzle a little olive oil over each bowl when serving. It’s a super stodgy moosh of brown beany pasta-y goodness which tastes so much better than it sounds and is a family favourite. I’m planning it for next week and am so looking forward to it! Gran also taught me that when you’re growing borlotti beans, you can pick them young before the beans start to swell and treat them like any other green or purple bean. They’re really tasty! It also encourages the plant to grow more beans in a second flush so you end up with more mature beans to store for winter. Some gorgeous produce from your allotment Ben. I can’t wait to start planting now!

[@shllybkwrm]

Thanks for sharing! This sounds good

[@moniquem783]

@@shllybkwrm you’re welcome 😊 It is really good, and really cheap too! If you want to make it, I use 1 packet of dried Borlotti beans which is 375g (soaked overnight), 2 carrots, roughly chopped, and the green only of 3-4 stalks of chard. 3 teaspoons of salt, 3 litres of water. Bring to the boil then simmer for about 3 hours. To mash it I use my immersion blender, but be careful not to purée it. You want some beans to stay whole. Basically I find some carrot and chard and trap it under and give it a very quick blitz, then find the next bit of carrot and chard. It takes a fair bit of pepper at the end. I do a good 15-20 grinds and I don’t particularly like pepper. Taste it before and after. When Gran taught me to make it, it blew my mind how much the pepper changed it! To a whole pot you can add a whole 500g packet of spaghetti. Break it into pieces about 2 inches long. I normally keep the soup in the fridge or freeze it in portions and cook the spaghetti fresh, otherwise when you reheat it it goes too far beyond al dente. For one serving I cook about 70g of spaghetti. A whole pot does about 6 servings. It’s very filling! You can also add onion or garlic or pretty much any vegetable you’ve got, or substitute if you need to (I’ve used parsnip and kale before) but we love it just simple like this. Real Italian peasant food 😊

It seems Ben and I are about on the same wavelength, because his allotment has nearly all the seasonal veg I personally love adding to the garden for harvesting around this time of year 😂 patty pans are absolutely fun and a delicious form of squash/aubergine, and rainbow chard is my favorite for salads.

[@falconlore9666]

Gardening is such a great way to bring in old favorites no longer sold in the store and new varieties or entirely new plants to try and find new favorites. I have loved patty Pans and Rainbow Chard for almost 4 decades but I recently got hooked on Thai Lavender Frog Eggplant, Chinese String Egg Plant, Japanese Winged Beans, and Python Snake Bean.

Patty Pans are my favorite squash for grilling which is how I grew up eating them. Sliced through the middle lightly oiled salt and pepper and then served with a little butter. I do think they are firmer than a yellow squash or zucchini but less from than chayote squash. Also the white and green variety is firmer than the yellow ones. If you use several colors in a squash stew you can have different textures.

One was just his, the other he would spend a summer with each one of us teaching us how to grow things. Not everything was successful but I did learn things. Plus I ended up with a volunteer cherry tomato plant that showed up in one corner and we got bags full of them! As for the dishes, the both look yummy, there were a few things that I didn't recognize like the beans, or didn't know the name of like the patty pans but I would have loved either one. As for the one I would have picked for first, I also would have chosen Mike's.
