Bare Bones Cooking + In the Pantry

Bare Bones is a five-video series designed for all levels connecting you with new flavors that reflect traditional values in bold imaginative ways. We waste nothing and savor all that we have to share the bounty.

The Techniques

  • Roast - Comforting and simple. Begin your journey by learning to concentrate flavors, coaxing out the natural sweetness in vegetables.

  • Sauté - Versatile techniques to sear food and lock in flavor by cooking stovetop.

  • Simmer - Build soups, stews, and stocks while tasting and playing with flavor as part of the process.

  • Broil - Cultivate caramelization and char using high direct heat on food.

  • Feast! - Expand your imagination through mapping a celebratory meal based on all that we’ve learned.

Each week includes ingredient guides and recipes grounded in seasonality to create familiarity with the new technique.

FAQs

It's accompanied by a collection of recipes meant to be returned to over time, as well as food and ingredient guides and "food journal" prompts for self paced learning.

  • This is a course for cooks at all levels. If you're just beginning, it offers a place to start – clear, practical, and encouraging. If you've been cooking for years, it's a chance to refine your instincts and perhaps see familiar ingredients in a new way.

  • Rather than focusing on performance or perfection, this course is about paying attention - learning how ingredients behave, how flavors develop, and how cooking fits into the rhythm of daily life. The intention is not just to follow recipes, but to feel more at home in your own kitchen.
