Melting Pot: 4. Salad, Soup & Sauce

In Salad, Soup and Sauce, we learn how to blend ingredients that don’t at first want to hang out together!

Jay Behrouzi visits Comrie in Scotland to prepare a three-course meal in under 30 minutes with Italian chef Nelson Reposo. Chef Nelson shares his recipes for a tangy balsamic dressing, a vegan chickpea and garlic soup, and his Pasta Amatriciana - made from scratch.

Resident scientist Big Manny teaches is the chemistry of what the TV chef’s call ‘emulsion’.

Have a go at Jay’s version of this 30-minute three-course meal:
