Holiday Appetizers & Cocktails - MOM CHEF CHALLENGE | The Chef Upstairs

The #MomjoMamas turn up the heat in The Chef Upstairs kitchen and battle it out against one another for the best appetizers and cocktails for the holidays!
Watch as Carolina gets inspired by her family's roots in Peru for her Pisco Sour cocktail recipe and shows us how to make ceviche! While Liat mixes a refreshing kombucha and berry mocktail alongside a warm spinach artichoke dip with pita chips!

Chef Julian Pancer from The Chef Upstairs invited us to cook up a storm in his state-of-the-art kitchen. On the menu (including recipes):

Also included in this fun video are some easy and useful chef tips and cooking hacks, by Chef Julian, including:
1. Honing the knife - not sharpening the knife :)
2. Holding the knife
3. Juicing limes
4. Peeling garlic
5. Chiffonade - chopping herbs

Be sure to watch to the end to see which mama gets the Chef's approval!
May the best mom chef win!
