Playing with Food | Argentinian Cuisine with Mirta Rinaldi

In this episode we head to Queens for an Argentinian dinner party and cooking class with Mirta Rinaldi, a cooking instructor, yerba mate sommelier, and owner of Mendulicina bakery. We make Argentinian specialties like grilled skirt steak with chimichurri sauce and pears poached in Malbec, as Mirta tells us about growing up in a family of amazing cooks, how she went from working in a coat check room to hosting parties for celebrities, and how food allows her to express her creativity.
