How does a professional chef get started in the kitchen? I interviewed Chef Clark Frain, executive chef at Terra GR restaurant, and his answer actually shocked me. In spite of his beginnings and his favorite food as a kid that made me cringe a little, I loved chatting with a real chef and watching his eyes light up as he talked about making delicious food that gives people a wonderful experience at the table.PLUS Chef Clark takes us into a real restaurant kitchen where he demonstrates his favorite food as an adult -- pizza! But this isn't just any pizza - Terra's "margherita pizza" starts with a Neopolitan style crust, which means it starts with a "poolish" and ferments overnight (a little bit like sourdough) for special air bubbles by the crust, and it's topped with homemade tomato sauce, hand-pulled mozzarella, and fresh local heirloom tomatoes, and then fresh basil, extra virgin olive oil, special salt and Parmesan on top after baking. I wish we could have seen the making of the bread the day before and the pulling of the cheese, don't you?You can find Chef Clark's restaurant here: http://terragr.com and there are some yummy looking recipes out there for overnight pizza dough like this one: https://www.101cookbooks.com/best-pizza-dough-ever/Visit the Kids Cook Real Food eCourse and see how we teach children confidence in the kitchen: https://kidscookrealfood.comFind all the Kids Cook Real Food Healthy Parenting Connector videos at https://youtu.be/GVRq0m-Ehe4
