More and more of us are cooking at home these days.
And that's great news — since home cooking is the BEST way to control the food you eat and manage your health. 
But how can you make your home-cooked meals truly extraordinary?
Well, to help me out, I'm joined by my friend and award-winning chef Jimmy Schmidt.
Jimmy is a three-time James Beard award-winning chef, who's opened restaurants across the U.S., written several books about cooking, and has worked with me since 2004 to develop special collaborative dinners exploring taste and nutritional development. 
On this episode, Jimmy and I talk all about the nuts and bolts of cooking. We explain how to find the RIGHT ingredients, share the secrets to creating awesome flavors, and explain the common mistakes many home cooks make (and how to fix them).
