A Chef's Table: Summer Produce, August 14, 2008

Today we're mixing it up with ingredients! Russ Parsons gives us the low down on picking and storing some great summer produce. We'll also discover the lesser known Asian cuisine: food from the Philippines. Find out why wasabi isn't really wasabi; plus what goes on in a Martha Stewart test kitchen. Later we'll meet a couple who spent a year eating only what was available within a 100 miles....and they stayed married to each other after all that! Sheila Lukins celebrates over 25 years of The Silver Palate. Also, our sommelier, Maureen Petrosky, on pairing wine with summer salads, Chef Coleman's favorite ingredient and much more.
