I definitely don’t have the formal training, though! Like many of us while being home, I find myself cooking more and experimenting in the kitchen.”
Gomez’s series will see her receiving tips and tricks of the cooking trade from top chefs.
Will video streaming, Gomez and the chefs will tackle all types of cuisine. What’s more, they’ll show viewers how to deal with small fires that pop up in the kitchen including missing ingredients.
