Clinton Kelly's Cherry Torte Goes Completely Off the Rails
Streams straight from the publisher. PodNod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome Chef Jackie B. back to the kitchen for a summer episode built around Clinton's cherry almond torte.
Inspired by his grandmother's recipe, the simple dessert combines a buttery batter with peak-season cherries, sliced almonds, and a crunchy sugar topping, then gets served warm with vanilla ice cream. It is an easy, make-ahead dessert that works just as well with plums, peaches, or apricots, but a stubborn mixer, forgotten almond extract, parchment-paper confusion, and plenty of unsolicited help turn the demonstration into complete kitchen chaos.
Along the way, they share tips for freezing seasonal fruit, debate which nostalgic summer trends deserve a comeback, pitch Garanimals for badly dressed adults, revisit '80s music and retro swimwear, compare workout routines, and reveal their favorite fast-food orders. Michael also explains why his granddaughter has started calling him "Squishy Grampy" and makes a strong case for Heavy Handed serving the best smash burger in America.
