'Mise en Place' is the secret weapon of every good cook. Literally, it means 'everything in its place.' But, for some chefs mise en place is a religion. That's because if you set up all the ingredients and tools for a menu before you cook, you just might achieve kitchen nirvana.
Seattle chef, food writer and culinary instructor Greg Atkinson has been able to turn out meals under the most stressful conditions. KUOW's Megan Sukys joins Greg in the instruction kitchen of Seattle Culinary Academy at Seattle Central Community College. Greg shares how mise en place can help with recipes for green bean casserole, yams with smoked paprika and cinnamon ice cream — as well as any cooking you do.
