After another week hard at work in the kitchen, and hard at play in the green hills outside of Getaria, the girls spent Thursday afternoon filming some special videos that will premiere soon on the BasqueStage website. Chef Martín even made an appearance in the studio behind his restaurant to inspire and motivate the stages.
The theme of filming: potatoes. The recipe recommended for execution: can you tell by the ingredients below?
Patatas con chorizo, a la riojana.
Tracy and Athena also filmed the making of french fries using Sammic cryovac machine, potato peeler, and potato cutter. Fresh, unfrozen French fries in minutes-it was kind of amazing.
How did the potatoes and chorizo go? After much chopping and cooking, allowing the smaller pieces of potato break down and thicken the sauce, the result was delicious. The video remains to be seen, but let’s just say there was fist-pumping all around and Chef Berasategui proclaimed Athena and Tracy “champions of patatas con chorizo”.
Stay tuned for the video!
