“The Kitchen” crew is embracing the bounty of the season with a “Garden Grub” episode this Saturday, with a cornucopia of fresh flavors and veggie-forward dishes. Sunny Anderson leads the charge, sharing her garden expertise and some go-to recipes, including her simple grilling techniques to extract maximum taste from seasonal produce.
While Sunny reigns over the vegetables, her co-hosts contribute their culinary creativity. Jeff Mauro crafts a Ratatouille Sandwich, a delicious twist on a classic dish, while Alex Guarnaschelli prepares Artichokes with Lemony Dipping Sauce, a surefire crowd-pleaser. Geoffrey Zakarian presents his elegant Triple Tomato Salad, a celebration of summer’s quintessential fruit (or is it a vegetable?), and Katie Lee Biegel serves up Grilled Shrimp with Spicy Vegetable Noodles, adding a touch of heat to the garden mix. Sunny finishes with a Sweet Quick version of Kenner Maque Choux. Not to be forgotten, Alex Guarnaschelli whips up a Frozen Strawberry Pie for those with a sweet tooth.
It’s a culinary celebration of fresh, seasonal cooking, and whether you’re a dedicated gardener or just enjoy the flavors of summer, this episode offers plenty of inspiration. Tune in to Food Network this Saturday, May 17 at 11:00 AM ET.
