Too Cocky with the Guac-y

On today’s episode of Borderline Salty, hosts Rick Martinez and Carla Lalli Music respond to a rant about unsalted butter, discuss the basics of spice cabinet organization, and share tips for how to stretch a limited amount of basil. 

Plus, Stephen Satterfield from Netflix's High on the Hog joins us to share a kitchen nightmare story from his early days in fast-food service. Since we recorded this episode, High on the Hog won a Peabody Award. Congrats, Stephen!
