In today's episode, Meseidy and Rebecca talk everything you have ever needed to know about hot dogs, and probably some things you never needed to know but will enjoy knowing anyway.

They have history and how hot dogs are made. They have cooking methods. They have hot dog controversies. And they have some serious opinions on how a hot dog should be cooked and how it should be topped.

In today's episode, Meseidy and Rebecca get judgey, but with love. It's true, they're about to tell you what you might be doing wrong in the kitchen, but they also share the right way to do it and some embarrassing confessions of things they have done wrong, too.

From reading recipes and prepping before cooking to the smartest (read: best) way to prepare and break down onions, bell peppers, carrots, potatoes, and more, the gals are here to make your kitchen life more efficient. They hold forth on non-stick pans, cast-iron skillets, how to clean nasty, cooked-on gunk from the worst messes, what the most common cooking mistake is, and how to store green leafies.

From the history of rice (spoiler alert: it goes WAAAAY back) to a discussion of varieties and sizes of rice and their uses, the ladies cover a food that they have both arguably eaten more of than any other food in the world. They also share their best tips and tricks for cooking perfect rice every time and chat about a couple of their favourite recipes using rice.
