Synopsis by Madeline Cavalieri

The Frugal Gourmet, with chef Jeff Smith, is an amazingly thorough video collection with over 80 episodes that includes food recipes from around the world. In each episode, Smith demonstrates several simple but important recipes. This episode is all for garlic. Recipes include Baked Garlic, Russian Garlic Salad, Aioli (Garlic Mayonnaise), Garlic Pasta, and Bagna Cauda (Garlic and Anchovy Dip). Smith not only cooks, he also discusses the theological and anthropological histories of the dishes he prepares. He brings humor and wide-ranging knowledge into the kitchen.
