Last year, the restaurant industry, in particular, was hit pretty hard as thousands of establishments had to shut their doors and leave their staff unemployed. The new Guy Fieri documentary follows chefs and restaurant owners as they struggle through the challenges that 2020 presented to them. The movie is called Restaurant Hustle 2020: All on the Line, which premiered at the end of December.
Guy Fieri Worked With Colleague Chefs and the Food Network to Create the New Documentary
Many people have done what they could to help workers and establishments with their struggles and keep various businesses afloat. To do their part, Guy Fieri worked with some of his culinary colleagues and the Food Network to create a documentary that shines a light on the challenges that the restaurant industry faced.
The documentary shows how four chefs describe the impact that recent events had on their businesses. Chef Antonia Lofaso, for example, said that her decade-long career disappeared in no time. While it took her ten years to build her restaurants, it took just a week for everything to be torn down to nothing. Guy Fieri even compared the situation with a “sinking ship” and pointed out that producing the documentary was extremely hard.
Chef Samuelsson Said Restaurants Still Face a Long Recovery Road
Chef Samuelsson works with the World Central Kitchen to help struggling restaurants. He and his team saw the documentary as an opportunity to tell a raw, authentic, and honest story while supporting the community. He also added that this is a good time for chefs and people to come together and help heal each other.
Chef Maneet Chauhan said that the situation was frightening, but she hoped for a better future. She added that she hoped that everyone would become stronger after it is all over. Chef Fieri, who has already raised millions of dollars for restaurant workers, hopes the industry will come together to create that future. In his opinion, people and the industry will prevail through a difficult situation and end up more unified.
This Fried Ice Cream Is The Perfect Summer Treat
There’s nothing better than chowing down on some delicious ice cream in the summer, right? Well, we’re here to show you that actually, there is something better than chowing down on delicious ice cream in the summer. That’s because we’re going to share a recipe that will change the ice cream game forever. After all, everything’s better when it’s fried, and that’s no different when it comes to fried ice cream…
What You’ll Need
To make this fried ice cream recipe, you’ll need a few ingredients – but don’t worry, you won’t need to head to the grocery store to stock up on things you’ll only use for this dish and never again. Simply raid your freezer for a pint of ice cream of your choice, and raid your pantry for 1 ½ teaspoon of butter, 1 ¼ cup of crushed corn cereal, ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar. For your garnishes, you’ll need whipped cream, sprinkles, and some yummy maraschino cherries.
The Method
Once you have all of your ingredients ready, you’re going to want to place four scoops of ice cream onto a piece of parchment paper and immediately place it in the freezer for around 30 minutes. During this time, you can melt the butter and add the corn cereal and the cinnamon into a pot. Once it’s golden, remove from the heat and stir in the sugar. Then, let it cool. After the 30 minutes is up, take the ice cream scoops out of the freezer and roll the balls into the cereal mixture. Then, top with the whipped cream, sprinkles, and cherries, and voila! Of course, you might want to eat these bad boys pretty quickly, as nobody likes a melted ice cream.
It’s important to realize that this fried ice cream treat isn’t really fried. We can’t imagine that dipping ice cream balls into oil is good for anyone, but this recipe certainly is.
