After one of our shoots wrapped early, we challenged Sasha Marx to whip up a meal in 25 minutes using 'nduja and whatever he could scrounge up in our test kitchen pantry. At the time, this premise felt like an extremely low-stakes version of a television cooking competition, but now this challenge has become a daily routine for most of us: constantly rooting through cupboards and fridges to scrounge up ingredients for an ad hoc meal that doesn't require a trip to the grocery store. Will Sasha complete the challenge? Will he finally hit the end of nduja-related puns? Only one way to find out... Have you been going off-book and using up pantry ingredients in new ways in your cooking? Let us know in the comments what you've come up with!
