Space play/pause · J/L seek 10s · [ ] previous/next
Summary
On lockdown day eight in Spain, Daniel and Mila say authorities may keep residents home until 15 April, implying roughly a month indoors. Their fire-cooked fish plan is abandoned after Daniel’s mother warns the large fire is dangerous; they bake cod using chicken-fry batter mix. The fish sticks to the metal, becomes dry and not crispy after excess water, but Daniel and Mila still call it delicious and add lemon.
Insight
Lockdown intensifies their playful but chaotic cooking partnership, continuing improvised methods despite recurring safety and preparation problems.
