MEET OUR tastemakers: daisy and frank

@dnfdiary

"We especially liked the fact that [tea seed] oil is neutral, so it doesn't impact the flavor of the food itself."

Like many of us, COVID made Daisy and Frank 1. closer as lovers and co-habitators 2. way better cooks. They met at UCLA and started ramping up their cooking together. Now itโ€™s one of their favorite shared interests. Living healthier, cost-effective, and delicious lives is important to them and cooking at home for each other is a sure way to stay on track.

Cook D&F's recipes

Daisy and Frankโ€™s dinner parties are the kind that everyone wants to be invited to. One of their favorite memories was over Christmas when they invited a few friends over for braised pork ribs, Korean fried chicken wings, steamed fish, and garlic scallops. Dessert was a โ€œmatcha flavored mille crepe cake." (Raise your hand if youโ€™re salivating!)

Their favorite part of working in the food world is the mutual celebration aspect. Whether someoneโ€™s gotten a small raise or thereโ€™s a newborn in the family, people celebrate with good food and that happiness is contagious.
