This week Dave gets his holiday travel frustrations out with some Nirvana and bagpipes while answering your questions about how to keep your coffee fresh (read: dont put it in the freezer!) and the rating system for pungency (think pyruvate scale). Learn why beef tenderloin is oft considered the cosmo of the meat world but excellent for beef wellington, how to make your own DIY emulsifiers, as well as the art of plating and presenting dishes in your own home.
