Charging For Dinner Parties, Our One-Minute Cooking Tip, New Chinese Cookbooks, Dark Pretzels, Sri Lankan Curry & More!

Would you charge friends for a dinner party? It's becoming a trend. Believe it or not. And we want to weigh in.

We're veteran cookbook authors Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough, the authors of over three dozen cookbooks, including our latest: THE INSTANT AIR FRYER BIBLE which you can find here.

We're so glad you stopped by to spend time with us. Thank you for that.

We want to share our thoughts on a current trend about VENMO-ing your guests a bill for a dinner party. We've got a one-minute cooking tip. We walk about two new Chinese cookbooks. And we tell you what's making us happy in food this week.

Here are the segments for this episode of COOKING WITH BRUCE AND MARK:
