I'm Ina Garten. I love to invite interesting people to my house for good food, great conversation, and lots of fun. My dear friend, the incredible American fashion designer Daniel Roseberry is joining me for a day at the barn. He's the artistic director of Schiaparelli, the legendary Paris fashion house. I'm welcoming him with my triberry Ricotta breakfast cake. He's giving me a flower arranging class. Then we're joining forces to make smashed hamburgers with caramelized onions. I know he's going to love them.
Daniel Roseberry
Dream guest and dream host.
Ina Garten
My friend Daniel Roseberry is coming today. We met a couple of years ago and it's one of those things where we just clicked. It was almost like I'd known him forever. Can't wait to see him. And I thought when he arrives, it'd be so nice to have a warm cake coming out of the oven. So I'm making a tri berry ricotta breakfast cake. I mean, who doesn't like cake for breakfast? So I've got butter and sugar cream together and I'm just adding the eggs one at a time so that they mix in really well. Nice thing is you can't over mix it at this point. Okay, next is whole milk ricotta, a cup, 2 tablespoons of sour cream 1 teaspoon of vanilla, 1 teaspoon of grated lemon zest. And while that mixes in, let me tell you more about my fabulous guest, Daniel Roseberry. Daniel is one of the most famous Paris fashion designers and an award winning couturier. His father is an Anglican minister, his mother is an artist, and he grew up in Plano, Texas, in a religious household where he was fascinated by fashion. And after high school, Daniel did missionary work abroad before changing course and going to New York's prestigious Fashion Institute of Technology. After college, he began working for the fashion designer Tom Brown. Daniel became the head of design before setting out on his own in 2018. Soon, the legendary Paris haute couture house Schiaparelli, which had reopened after 60 years, came calling. The house was originally started in 1927 by the Italian designer Elsa Schiaparelli. It's known for its avant garde fusion of art and couture. As the artistic director, Daniel has taken the iconic house to even greater heights, where he stages sensational Runway shows and creates dresses for world famous stars. We've become dear friends, and we particularly love spending Christmas day together in Paris. Isn't Daniel amazing? Just adore him. Okay, so next I'm gonna do the dry mixture and keep going with the cake. So the dry ingredients are one and a quarter cups, all purpose flour, a tablespoon of baking powder, and a teaspoon of kosher salt, all stirred together. Next, with the mixer on low, I'll slowly add the dry ingredients, mixing just until they're incorporated. Then it's time to add 8 ounces of mixed raspberries, blueberries, and sliced strawberries. I'll gently fold them into the batter, then transfer the batter to a greased and floured 9 inch round springform pan and smooth the top. I have one final thing to do. I always put mixed berries on the top, and that way when the cake comes out of the oven, you can see the berries and you know exactly what's in the cake. Okay, into the oven 350 degrees for 55 minutes. Then I'm just gonna let it cool a bit and it'll be ready when Daniel gets here.
Daniel Roseberry
So I am living the dream. I just got off a plane from Paris and I get to go hang out with one of my favorite people on the planet, and we're gonna have a great time.
Ina Garten
Okay, cake's cooled. It's just a little warm, which is perfect. I'm gonna dust it a little with powdered sugar. I love that you can see the fruit in the top. It Makes such a difference to me. Okay, perfect timing. Daniel should be here any minute. Hope he loves the cake.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay, pulling up. I think we're here.
Ina Garten
I've got coffee for Daniel and me. Can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to today.
Daniel Roseberry
So. You know, of all the people who have been here, and there have been a lot of great people. I guarantee you, no one has been as excited as me. Bonjour, madame.
Ina Garten
Oh, Daniel, what a sight to behold. You and these talking flowers. Love you. So happy to see you.
Daniel Roseberry
So happy to see you, too. So these are classic orange.
Ina Garten
Oh, my God. My favorite flowers.
Daniel Roseberry
Exactly. And then I wanted to also bring you a flower that would last forever.
Ina Garten
Oh, my goodness. I mean, I always love the packaging as much as what's in it, but. Let me see. Oh, my goodness. Isn't this gorgeous?
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah. So it's a parrot tulip, and it.
Ina Garten
Has to match exactly.
Daniel Roseberry
I know. When you. When I.
Ina Garten
Can I put it on?
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah. Here, I'm. Put it on.
Ina Garten
You put it on me. I know everybody says what you do is fashion, but it's really art.
Daniel Roseberry
Thank you. I like to think that Schiaparelli is the closest to art that fashion can come. I can't believe the color matches. Perfect.
Ina Garten
Is it good?
Daniel Roseberry
It's perfect.
Ina Garten
Yeah. Wasn't it amazing? You and I met two and a half or three years ago, and from the moment that we met, we just totally connected.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
I've never had an experience like that before.
Daniel Roseberry
Me neither.
Ina Garten
You haven't either. Oh, good.
Daniel Roseberry
No, no, no. This does not happen often. And, you know, even though I'm doing couture in Paris, I'm also a preacher's son from Plano. I grew up with you in so many ways, too. So. People always said, don't meet your heroes, and I just couldn't disagree more.
Ina Garten
Thank you. So I have coffee, and I made a. A tri berry ricotta cake.
Daniel Roseberry
I'm gonna eat whatever we're calling it a breakfast cake.
Ina Garten
So any excuse to have cake for breakfast. Right? Perfect.
Daniel Roseberry
Perfect.
Ina Garten
So was the trip from Paris okay?
Daniel Roseberry
It was very. I've gotten it down to a science. I haven't checked a bag in five years.
Ina Garten
I never check a bag.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah, no. It's the biggest waste of time, especially with.
Ina Garten
I hate waiting on the other end. I just. And I won't travel with anybody who checks a bag, either.
Daniel Roseberry
Thank you so much.
Ina Garten
You and I can travel together. We're good.
Daniel Roseberry
Exactly.
Ina Garten
I don't care how long I'm going for, I never check a bag. I hope you like it.
Daniel Roseberry
Oh, my gosh. I'm sure I will. Mm. Oh, my God. That's so good.
Ina Garten
It's still warm too.
Daniel Roseberry
It's so good. Thank you.
Ina Garten
So you not only bring flowers, but are you gonna arrange them for me?
Daniel Roseberry
I'm gonna do my best, and I'm gonna take rules that I learned from you and do it in a turbo way.
Ina Garten
So in a Schiaparelli way and just.
Daniel Roseberry
Up to Schiaparelli setting.
Ina Garten
Let's go arrange flowers. This is gonna be amazing.
Daniel Roseberry
What I like to do is gather them all into really neat bundles.
Ina Garten
Okay.
Daniel Roseberry
This requires, like, absolutely no.
Ina Garten
No expertise.
Daniel Roseberry
No expertise at all. It's all about impact, so it's all about quantity and keeping the colors the exact same. And then I just start like this.
Ina Garten
And, you know, I mean, that's gorgeous already. That's exactly right. Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
For me, like, scale is kind of everything. Like this.
Ina Garten
So instead of doing one vase and one flower, you're doing a huge vase, but clumping the flowers together in a sort of color palette.
Daniel Roseberry
Right, Exactly.
Ina Garten
And also they're different heights, so it really feels like a garden.
Daniel Roseberry
And I really try and avoid anything that feels like filler.
Ina Garten
Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
And then the quince I'd put in the back. And I think anytime people see branches, they just start freaking out. What do you think?
Ina Garten
It's just. I'm just gobsmacked. I can't believe how gorgeous this is. And you know what was amazing is how easy it was.
Daniel Roseberry
So easy.
Ina Garten
So once you have the system, you can just do it.
Daniel Roseberry
So easy. And so inspired by you. Well, really, thank you.
Ina Garten
I'm not taking any credit for it whatsoever.
Daniel Roseberry
That's not possible. It's my INA method. Basically.
Ina Garten
Just gorgeous.
Daniel Roseberry
Thank you.
Ina Garten
Okay, so how about you take the flowers?
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
I'll take the cake. Okay. I'll meet you at the table.
Daniel Roseberry
Sounds good.

Ina Garten
Daniel, we've known each other for what, two and a half or three years?
Daniel Roseberry
30 years.
Ina Garten
I feel like I've known you for 30 years. It's unbelievable. And yet I still have so much I want to talk to you about.
Daniel Roseberry
Me too.
Ina Garten
When you were a child in Plano, Texas, did everybody in your family think you were going to be a minister or a priest?
Daniel Roseberry
There was, I don't think ever a moment where I expressed interest in the ministry until I was right before college and it was time to go to fashion school. And I was so nervous to go that I almost went to seminary instead.
Ina Garten
Oh, wow.
Daniel Roseberry
And I did a year as a missionary overseas in the Middle East.
Ina Garten
Wow.
Daniel Roseberry
And then I came back, went to go to apply to be a minister, and the dean of the seminary said, absolutely not. You have to go to fashion school. So he dismissed me basically, and I ended up in New York.
Ina Garten
Wow.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
Amazing.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
So from Texas you went to fit A Fashion Institute of Technology, and then you went to Thom Browne.
Daniel Roseberry
Yep.
Ina Garten
And what did you do with Thom Browne?
Daniel Roseberry
So I was an intern first, putting labels on hangers, working in this factory.
Ina Garten
Really?
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah. Then I brought my portfolio in to show him. So then I got an email a few days later and he said, sit down and talk about your bright future at Thom Browne. Wow. And then that kicked off a 10 year training crash course at Thom Browne.
Ina Garten
Ending with designing things for the first lady.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah, right. Yeah.
Ina Garten
So after Thom Browne, how did Schiaparelli come around?
Daniel Roseberry
My mom always said, leap in the net will appear. Right.
Ina Garten
Can you imagine a parent having that much faith in you?
Daniel Roseberry
And so I left Thom Browne with nothing lined up. Then I remember I was walking down the street and someone called me and said, can I put you up for a job in Paris? And I said, absolutely. And then two weeks later, I was interviewing at the Carlisle Hotel in New York with the owner of Schiaparelli, and he asked me to make a project. And I did.
Ina Garten
And it's been like a rocket ship ever since.
Daniel Roseberry
And thank God I had no idea how hard it was going to be.
Ina Garten
You know, it's kind of like doing a specialty food store. You have no. If you had any idea, you know, you would never have done it.
Daniel Roseberry
Totally.
Ina Garten
So from Plano, Texas, to New York to Paris, when you were a kid, did your family travel or did you pretty much stay in Texas?
Daniel Roseberry
My mom was from New York, actually, and my dad's from Arizona, so we were not like deep southern Texas people. And every summer. Cause my dad was a priest, he'd take a month off and we would get in a huge 16 passenger van and we would drive from Plano to Florida to see where my great grandmother, and then drive from Florida to Long island to see my grandma and then drive from Long island to. And we'd drive through the night. And it was all of us piled in this car. And so, you know, being exposed to New York and the Hamptons and Belport, which is where they lived, kind of, you know, opened that part of the country up to me and helped me dream about it.
Ina Garten
You know, just wonderful.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
So I have so many questions about fashion because I was really interested in it as a child, actually went to college for fashion, and obviously ended up in not doing fashion at all. What's your process before starting a new collection?
Daniel Roseberry
So we as a team, we print out the images of the collection we just finished and we put them on a board. We kind of pick up where we left off. It's always about kind of refining the things that showed a lot of promise, leaving behind the things that didn't. The other thing I do before I start is I write the review that I want to get at the end of the.
Ina Garten
Oh, isn't that interesting?
Daniel Roseberry
And it's less the way it looks and more what I want it to mean.
Ina Garten
Fascinating. And the goal is to do something gorgeous and outrageous that will Be talked about.
Daniel Roseberry
The goal is domination.
Ina Garten
Is domination. Domination, I think, like, domination of the fashion industry.
Daniel Roseberry
Of the moment.
Ina Garten
Of the moment.
Daniel Roseberry
For me, couture is all about mastering the moment.
Ina Garten
So it's theater in a way.
Daniel Roseberry
Exactly.
Ina Garten
So somebody comes to you to dress them for, say, the Met Gala or for the Oscars. Where do you start?
Daniel Roseberry
If it's a custom creation, which is always the most challenging, I want to know, who do they want to be? That's so important to me, to work around what they want. Like with Lady Gaga, with the inauguration.
Ina Garten
Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
Everyone has a relationship with the dove. So that was a visual archetype that I felt could be twisted and repackaged. And when people see it, they don't have to digest the entire thing as something new. It's already striking on a chord. I'm not interested in challenging people with something that's, you know, like the equivalent of pea foam and some, like, you know, ate it. Like all that stuff that no one actually wants.
Ina Garten
It was so simple.
Daniel Roseberry
It was so simple.
Ina Garten
Yeah, that's the key. It's easy to do something simple, but to do something simple and interesting is really hard.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah, really, really, really hard. And, you know, we've never paid a celebrity to wear it, ever. We've never paid seriously.
Ina Garten
And people pay millions of dollars for celebrities to wear their clothes.
Daniel Roseberry
And that's what. When you see someone in Schiaparelli, it's because they want to be in Schiaparelli. And I think that that also means everything. And then over the past five years, while we've been building this crescendo of attention, let's say, with the couture.
Ina Garten
Brilliantly built.
Daniel Roseberry
Thanks. And then simultaneously, we've been building the full wardrobe, and that's. The next chapter of SCAP is to expand the world of Schiaparelli and have it be filled with, you know, we've got denim, we've got corduroy, we've got. All of the archetypes of a wardrobe are now existent in Schiaparelli. So those two worlds are. It's a beautiful business model because we're so exclusive on the couture. And slowly and gently starting to invite more people into the world of scap.
Ina Garten
And also, you're ready to wear. Is just gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous. I love it.
Daniel Roseberry
I think so, too.
Ina Garten
Yeah. Yeah. Resurrecting an old brand like Schiaparelli and a distinct one. How do you decide what you keep, what you throw away, what you bring in that's new. How did you think about doing it.
Daniel Roseberry
So Much of it was intuition, really. Like, so much of it was a guttural. This doesn't feel right. This feels right. I think the ability to listen to that voice and that gut instinct when the room is filled with opinions, as you know better than anybody.
Ina Garten
And Spielberg always says, that voice is very quiet, so you have to have quiet in order to hear it. Yeah, that's really interesting. Isn't that good?
Daniel Roseberry
That's so good. But, you know, I always think you judge the. When you look at those old couture houses, you know, you have the depth or the beauty of the name can be measured by whether or not. Did that house really change fashion in some way?
Ina Garten
Oh, isn't that interesting? And Schiaparelli did.
Daniel Roseberry
She did.
Ina Garten
Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
She was the first one who. She was not a dressmaker. You know, it was never about the clothes. It was about, you know, Dolly said no one.
Ina Garten
Dali was a great friend of hers and collaborator on the clothes. Right.
Daniel Roseberry
So. Yes. So her greatest contribution was to bridge, for the first time, art and fashion.
Commercial Announcer
Right.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
So she would design clothes and then he would draw on the fabric. Right. So that's how it was, a collaboration. Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
And she would take a drawing that he did and translate it into a. Into a garment as well. They did both things. But he said, no one knows how to say Schiaparelli, but everyone knows what it means. And that's what I. Because people always think it's Schiaparelli, and it's not. It's not.
Ina Garten
But, you know, because she was an Italian in Paris.
Daniel Roseberry
Exactly.
Ina Garten
So.
Daniel Roseberry
So to me, there's something quite abstract about Schiaparelli, as opposed to Chanel, where the codes were so literal and black and white and graphic. Literally black and white. And then Dior, you know, there was a silhouette, and Balenciaga was this mastery of sculpture and form and architecture and fashion. And she was the one who really brought the abstract into fashion. And that when you look at the people who have been inspired by her, you know, it's everyone from eve, who Yves St. Laurent, who was so inspired by her work, but then you go to somebody like Martin Margiela or Azzedine Alaia, like, there's a real spectrum of people who were touched by her contribution. And that's why, for me, it's one of the most beautiful names in the biz.
Ina Garten
And you've made it that way.
Daniel Roseberry
How do you think about effort? Do you think that when you're in the flow, things should just be moving easily? Or do you think that when you're like, really pushing that you're on the edge of greatness. Like, how do you think about that?
Ina Garten
I think when I look back at the things that I've done, it's the times I've jumped off a cliff that really changed my life. I don't think there's ever too much effort that you can do on something that you care about.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
It's almost. I actually heard Bob Woodward say this one time, it's not that I ever finish a book. I just stop working on it.
Daniel Roseberry
Oh, wow.
Ina Garten
Because there's always more you can do. Every time I make a recipe, I tweak it in a way that I say, this is better or it's easier. So I think the thing that defines both of us is that we care so much, and we want to make sure it's as good as it can possibly be. And then someday. So sometimes you just have to stop.
Daniel Roseberry
Working on it 100%.
Ina Garten
Right.
Daniel Roseberry
You've said a lot that Jeffrey believed in you first. Right. And that Jeffrey was the first person to really love you. Do you think that it's possible. Do you think you would have arrived at this place without that love and support?
Ina Garten
Zero chance.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
Couldn't have happened.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
We all need one person. It doesn't have to be a lot. Just one person who totally believes in you. And when I said to Jeffrey, I don't know anything about running a specialty food store, what makes me think I can do it? And he always said, if you want to do it, if you love it, you'll be really good at it. And I needed somebody to say that to me to just kind of get me past the mark.
Daniel Roseberry
Totally.
Ina Garten
Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
Do you also think that any of this would have happened if you hadn't had the severity of your childhood growing up?
Ina Garten
I don't know what impact that had. It's hard for me to understand. I mean, it's the whole thing about nature and nurture. I think nature is much more. Nature is much stronger. I think who we are, unless we're really destroyed as children or from some experience, I think who we are, our DNA takes over. But I think maybe having a harsh childhood made me want to prove to myself that they were wrong. But I think the influence of Jeffrey believing in me is so much stronger.
Daniel Roseberry
So much stronger.
Ina Garten
So much stronger. Yeah. And, you know, in the process of writing the memoir, realizing that I had overcome that was really. It just felt good.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
Felt good that I had proven to myself that this is who I am and not how they saw me.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
So you didn't have that. I mean, you had total support as a child.
Daniel Roseberry
I mean, yes, as far as creativity, but my, you know, coming out process and reconciling that with a very Christian upbringing, really. I mean, it put me on the run in many ways, too. And I think that being on the run was a really, like, in my mind was a really important, you know, if you. I'm the only one who left home, basically, you know that it just proved.
Ina Garten
You have the strength to do it.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
And it feels good.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
What skill would you like to have?
Daniel Roseberry
I Wish I was 15 to 20% less inhibited. Like, don't we all? Yeah. I wish I could dance more freely. I wish I could tell jokes more freely. I wish I was less conscious of myself.
Ina Garten
Can I tell you something that'll come with age?
Daniel Roseberry
I hope so.
Ina Garten
You're still young.
Daniel Roseberry
What about you? What would you say?
Ina Garten
I'd like to be able to sing on a stage.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
Wouldn't that be great? Just belt out a song and entertain people or play a piano and sing at a party.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
I have the worst voice, really. And I'm way too shy to get up in front of a crowd. So what's a perfect day for you?
Daniel Roseberry
A perfect day for me could be being in the studio and just discovering the collection. And, you know, anytime I'm outside of Paris with the people that I love, that's hard to beat. The one thing that I've never really been able to square between the two of us that we don't agree on is Paris itself.
Ina Garten
There's a big difference.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
Is that I go to Paris on vacation.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
I'm free. You're in Paris working.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
So we have a completely different view of Paris. So next time, I'm going to take you to my Paris. How's that?
Daniel Roseberry
You have a lot of work to do on that. Because it's become such a backdrop for the pressure.
Ina Garten
Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
It's never been a place where I go to escape or just hang out.
Ina Garten
Yeah, exactly. I totally get that.
Daniel Roseberry
When I think of this barn and when I think of all of the episodes, I think of all of the seasons. You know, I can see, you know, barefoot in Christmas time, or I can see springtime. I can see fall. Do you have a favorite season?
Ina Garten
Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
What is it?
Ina Garten
I love autumn.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
I like when the summer's over and everybody goes home, but I like the. I like the colors of autumn, and I like that the winter's coming, and I like that kind of sense of hibernation and time to Kind of regroup. And maybe it's also, you know, the start of the school year in September. Summer's my least favorite season, and I think fall is my most favorite.
Daniel Roseberry
Me too.
Ina Garten
Yeah, you too.
Daniel Roseberry
Me too.
Ina Garten
I'm not surprised. So you and I agree on something that I just adore, which is the high, low thing, which is like making baked potatoes with caviar.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
And I understand that when you have a show to celebrate at the end, you go to the Ritz. Not, not.
Daniel Roseberry
Not so bad.
Ina Garten
Not so bad. And I have hamburgers and champagne. Is that right?
Daniel Roseberry
That's correct.
Ina Garten
So I thought we would make my smash burgers with caramelized onions, and we might have to have champagne with it.
Daniel Roseberry
That's what. Yes, please.
Ina Garten
Will you cook with me?
Daniel Roseberry
I will. Okay, I will.

Ina Garten
So after every show, you take everybody to the Ritz.
Daniel Roseberry
Of course, the Ritz, obviously, next door.
Ina Garten
Cheeseburgers and champagne. And I love that hilo thing.
Daniel Roseberry
I know. Where did. Can I ask, where did the Hilo thing come from?
Ina Garten
I don't know. I just have this thing about, like, potato chips and caviar together.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
It kind of brings down the caviar, but it's absolutely so delicious.
Daniel Roseberry
So it was just instinct, basically.
Ina Garten
Just instinct or like, you know, like doing lentils with truffles.
Daniel Roseberry
Right.
Ina Garten
You know, something really earthy with something really elegant. They somehow sometimes go together. Okay, so I'm gonna show you how to make my smash burgers with cheese and caramelized onions. Maybe a little champagne at the end. Perfect. Are you gonna cook with me?
Daniel Roseberry
I am.
Ina Garten
Okay, good.
Daniel Roseberry
Put me to work.
Ina Garten
Okay, so we're starting with one and a quarter pounds of ground beef.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
And it's 20% fat and 80% lean.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
Okay. And then we're gonna season it a little bit. So you wanna put in one and a half teaspoons of ground mustard.
Daniel Roseberry
One and a half. And why ground?
Ina Garten
The heat of the ground mustard.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
And then one and a half teaspoons of salt.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
Do measure when you cook.
Daniel Roseberry
Only because I learned it from you.
Ina Garten
Excellent. Right answer.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
And then half a teaspoon of pepper.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay. And, Aya, were burgers being served at the original barefoot store?
Ina Garten
No, because things weren't made to eat right away. It was a specialty food store to take out. So we never made hamburgers.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
Okay. Who's gonna dive in? We can do it with a spoon or we can do it with our hands.
Daniel Roseberry
Isn't a chef's best.
Ina Garten
Who said that? Do you want to do it?
Daniel Roseberry
Can I do it?
Ina Garten
Yep, absolutely. So the key to this is don't press it together. Just keep it light.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah. Fluffy.
Ina Garten
And. Just fluffy. And mix it together. Because sometimes people, when they mix things, they kind of pound it down, and it doesn't have that great flavor.
Daniel Roseberry
So, you know, after the couture shows, when we've been doing all nighters and, you know, rounds of press and everything.
Ina Garten
So you're wired for sound, right?
Daniel Roseberry
You're wired. And you're also ready to fall apart? Basically, yeah. And I was wondering, when you're finishing a cookbook, what do you do? Is it a fall apart?
Ina Garten
That's my favorite thing to do, because I just know I'm going to relax there, I'm going to chill out, and I'm going to disconnect.
Daniel Roseberry
But you're like me. We have two speeds. Yeah, we have two speeds. Like a hundred and one hundred ten.
Ina Garten
Miles an hour and fast asleep. There's nothing. There's no moderate in either of our worlds. Exactly. That looks perfect. It's really well mixed. Excellent. Okay, now we're gonna form it into four burgers.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
Okay. So each one's a little more than a quarter of a pound.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
And just form it in a ball and then flatten it like this.
Daniel Roseberry
How many burgers do you think you've done in your life? I'm curious.
Ina Garten
How many, actually.
Daniel Roseberry
Really?
Ina Garten
Yeah. I don't make hamburgers that much, but this is my favorite. I like to do this.
Daniel Roseberry
To me, hamburgers are like sandwiches. Oh, really? They taste better when someone else makes them for you in a weird way.
Ina Garten
Oh, well, then I should be making these for you.
Daniel Roseberry
Well, this counts. This definitely counts.
Ina Garten
This is a good one. The thing about a smash burger is it sears on the outside, so it becomes kind of crisp, and so the texture is really interesting. And because it's a higher heat, what you end up with is it's seared on the outside and almost. Just a little thin line of almost raw. And it's just perfect. And the trick with these is that I freeze them for 15 minutes, and it just keeps the inside from overcooking, and it kind of holds the shape of the burgers. It just seems to really work. Cool. Who knew, right?
Daniel Roseberry
I definitely didn't.
Ina Garten
So what else do you have at the Ritz?
Daniel Roseberry
I mean, ironically, when you get a family from Texas around a table at the Ritz, all anyone wants to have is burgers. Honestly, no. So, you know, we can order canape of, you know, foie gras.
Ina Garten
Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
And no one wants it. And we'll do caviar. No one wants it.
Ina Garten
Same thing. Okay. Let's wash our hands first.
Capital One Advertiser
Okay.
Ina Garten
So how was that so far?
Daniel Roseberry
This is good.
Ina Garten
Easy. Easy?
Capital One Advertiser
Yeah, Easy.
Ina Garten
That's what I like. Easy. Okay. I'm gonna put them in the freezer.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
And I'll be right back. And we'll do the onions.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay, perfect.
Ina Garten
So what I did was I have two onions, two red onions. I like. They're just a little sweeter.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
And I just sauteed them for about 10 minutes, really low temperature, so they don't brown. And then I'm gonna add a little bit of sugar. So these are gonna cook for about 10, and they're gonna be really caramelized and sweet and delicious. And then I'm gonna make the best burgers.
Daniel Roseberry
You've ever had better than the Ritz.
Ina Garten
I don't know.
Daniel Roseberry
I'm sure.
Ina Garten
I hope so.
Daniel Roseberry
I'm sure.
Ina Garten
I'm sure. Okay, you ready to cook?
Daniel Roseberry
Yes.
Ina Garten
I think we only need to cook two of these, don't you?
Daniel Roseberry
I think two is cute for us.
Ina Garten
Okay, fantastic. So the thing is, we put the hamburgers in. That's yours. That's mine.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
We're gonna remember whose is whose.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay, Mine's a little bit bigger.
Ina Garten
Right in. Okay, perfect. And then what you're gonna do is take the spatula and smash them down. And what it does is create a crust on the bottom. That's really great. Just like that. That's perfect. Okay. And mine, too.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah, I'm gonna do yours.
Ina Garten
Okay, perfect. So those are gonna cook for about a minute and a half on one side, and then we're gonna turn them over. So. You know, I always think about whatever I did at Barefoot Contessa as, like, theater. I don't know. I feel like you must do that at Schiaparelli as well.
Daniel Roseberry
You know, you get 500 people in one spot. You get them for 15 minutes, and.
Ina Garten
You get 15 minutes. The whole show is 15 minutes.
Daniel Roseberry
The whole show is fifteen minutes. And so you have to hit them where it hurts, basically. And the way to do that really is music. And I think a beloved song is always the best place to start.
Ina Garten
That's exactly right. It's not something esoteric, something they really connect with, but it's familiar. But wonderful.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
Okay. Those smell really good, don't they?
Daniel Roseberry
They do.
Ina Garten
Are you in charge of flipping them?
Daniel Roseberry
I can be.
Ina Garten
Okay, let's see how they are. Gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous. Fantastic. Okay, so those are gonna cook for a minute and a half.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
And we're gonna finish the onions. How's that? Perfect. Okay.
Daniel Roseberry
Just leave them and I don't smash them again, right?
Ina Garten
Maybe a little bit.
Daniel Roseberry
A little bit. That's a good idea.
Ina Garten
Yeah, just like that. Okay, so the last thing for the onions is you put in. Are you in charge of this?
Daniel Roseberry
I can. Yes.
Ina Garten
Okay. You put in about a tablespoon of vinegar. Just like that.
Daniel Roseberry
Is that okay?
Ina Garten
Yes, that's perfect. And then you just cook it for just a minute. So what that does is that scrapes up all the little crusty bits and deglazes the pan, all the flavor. So all the flavor gets into the onions, which is where you want it. Okay, that's done. Okay, onions are ready. And the next thing is we're going to build the burgers.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
So first Thing we're going to have is onions. I'm going to put some on each hamburger.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
You know, a big spoonful of onions.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay.
Ina Garten
Just like that. These are so good. You won't believe it.
Daniel Roseberry
They smell so good, too.
Ina Garten
And put a big pile of grated Gruyere on top, and then lid goes on. And since you have Dom Perignon at the Ritz, we have to have Dom Perignon. I mean, you know, it's a responsibility.
Daniel Roseberry
Wow. I feel so honored to have this with you.
Ina Garten
Yeah.
Daniel Roseberry
You know, I remember the first Barefoot Contessa thing I ever made. It was the frittata. The frittata.
Ina Garten
The frittata.
Daniel Roseberry
And I remember going and doing all the Gruyere. And I was like, is this correct? Because it was so much creative. The best thing we've ever had.
Ina Garten
The more cheese, the better, right?
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
And I have glasses that Daniel gave me that I just adore. I'm not sure they're champagne glasses, but they're pretty close, right?
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah. But they're designed by my friend Jonathan Hanson, and they're absolutely stunning.
Ina Garten
They're just gorgeous. Thank you so much. So the key I learned about champagne is you turn the bottle, not the cork.
Daniel Roseberry
Oh, okay.
Ina Garten
Perfect. Not interesting.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
I don't know why it works, but it works. Are you pouring champagne?
Daniel Roseberry
Yes. Poor madame.
Ina Garten
I like being madame.
Daniel Roseberry
Do you miss speaking French?
Ina Garten
My French is so bad. Nobody misses me speaking French.
Daniel Roseberry
You know, I don't speak any of it.
Ina Garten
Any of it?
Daniel Roseberry
No.
Ina Garten
Good. We can go out together. Then I won't be humiliated. To you. To unbelievable success. Oh, my God.
Daniel Roseberry
Mm, mm, mm.
Ina Garten
So good. Okay, I think it's done. Take that off. Hamburger on each one.
Daniel Roseberry
Okay. Like so.
Ina Garten
Fingers are allowed. Perfect. There we go. And top on. And now you don't have to go to the Ritz.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
You can have champagne and smash burgers at home.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah.
Ina Garten
Cheers.
Daniel Roseberry
Aina.
Ina Garten
Isn't that good?
Daniel Roseberry
My God, that is the best burger I've ever had.
Ina Garten
Really?
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah. I'm not just saying that.
Ina Garten
The Ritz is in the rear view mirror.
Daniel Roseberry
Yeah. The Ritz. Who.
Ina Garten
Cheers to an unbelievable rocket career. I'm so proud of you, Ina.
Daniel Roseberry
