Szechuan Sauce Revisited
Now you will never want for szechuan sauce again. Ditch the time machine, because Babish is about to show you how to make your own, right in your own kitchen.

The Fitz Sandwich
Not too many recipes actually call for multiple episodes of Frasier, but there's a first time for everything.

So good, you'll want to be bad — in a fictional TV villain eating a really good sandwich kind of way.
