Chewing the Fat: Batali and Bourdain on Essential Ingredients
Mario Batali and Tony Bourdain are a couple of champion fat chewers who know and like and respect each other a great deal, so we thought why not bring them together for the next set of Chewing the Fat episodes.
Mario Batali and Anthony Bourdain discuss their four essential ingredients. What are yours?
The new season of Tony's show No Reservations airs Mondays at 10 p.m. ET on the Travel Channel. Mario's show, Spain...On the Road Again, co-starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Mark Bittman, continues on PBS.

Seriously? On The Road Again is the most pretentious show. Ever. OF ALL TIME. I tried watching two or three episodes, and all I wanted to do was punch everyone involved in the head.
Now, for the ingredients:
eggs
brown rice
soy
nori seaweed.
This is what I'm living on right now.

Mario isn't being entirely forthcoming. This list he just enumerated is a big part of his shtick (good olive oil etc.) The truth is, the number one ingredient on his list would be good old BUTTER :)

Give both of them credit for being true to their mantras.
4 pantry essentials:
brown rice (medium grain)
