- Hey guys, welcome back to Cooking in the Crib with Snooki.
- [Joey] And Joey!
- So today, Joey decided to bring a guest over.
- Ya! - He's been stalking him
for years. - Years.
- And now we're going to have pizza today.
- He's one of my favorite chefs,
please welcome my idol, Frankie Celenza.
- Yes! - Idol?
- You're my idol. - Idol!
Cheers! (chattering)
Thanks for coming.
- Nice to meet you. - Cheers.
- Yes. - Virtual cheer.
- So. - Is Mike here?
- So Mike is still here.
- I've been here for about three days.
- He's been our little rat.
Just eating the crumbs off the floor.
- I am the professional food taster.
- Yes. - Oh yeah,
so he's going to judge your food.
- I have a very seasoned pallet.
- I believe it.
- But I'm here for the pizza.
- What are we making-- - Yeah,
what are you making us today?
- Uh well, I've never made this.
- Okay. - Okay.
- Great.
- So, there's a sauce I really like called Norma.
It's an eggplant sauce.
It's a Sicilian sauce. - I've heard of it.
- Why is it called Norma?
- It's named after an opera that was called Norma.
- You can tell he's Italian.
(laughing) - Is it like margherita lady?
Like the named it-- - No.
Norma became in Sicily 'cause they were so proud
that this guy, Bellini wrote an opera
and it was world famous that Norma,
his best opera became a word
that meant anything was awesome.
So it was a slang, - Oh.
- In like the 1800s.
Like it's norma, it's norma.
- Now eggplant means (bleeps).
- Eggplant means (bleeps). - Yes!
- We actually, so we need some eggplant actually.
It's the first thing-- - We have a lot
of d**k here today.
- Could I come in?
- So there are our penises for the day.
- [Joey] So now he's slicing.
- Okay, can you get some oil in that pan please?
- Frankie said this is liquid gold sometimes.
- I don't think I'm the only that has said that.
- I know but I listen to you, you said.
Now what do we do now?
We just wait for the oil to heat up?
- We can chop up some garlic.
Well I was just going like this.
See it's all about the left hand.
- You know if you watched, if you ever watch--
- Whoa! - Whoa!
- If you ever watch Goodfellas,
Pauly used to do his garlic with a razor.
- Yes, in jail. - Yup.
- In a pinch you can just take a can of tomatoes
and put some salt in it. - Yup!
- And it tastes great.
Do you want to taste it?
Come on, you gotta tell me does it need more salt or not.
- Needs more salt.
- No it doesn't. - Okay.
- Okay you're-- - Oh my God,
my wine hit the pan!
Now it's popping.
- Well that means it's hot. (screams)
- That's why I said to put it on the last one Joey.
- It's like a volcano. (screams)
- God, where'd you get that?
- I gave you one job Joey. - I come prepared.
- Where did he get that?
- I'm not gonna splash in these baby blues.
(bleeps) off.
(laughing) - Oh God.
How do I drink my wine out of this?
- Do you need a straw?
I have one. - I do.
(chuckles)
- Lets um... - Grate some cheese?
- Yeah, can I...
- It's there. - Oh I like grating cheese.
- [Joey] Nicole knows how to do this.
- Lets do uh, yeah, that's Parm.
Comes from a cow.
- No it doesn't.
- Yeah Parm comes from a cow.
Pecorino comes from the sheep.
You wanna know a funny story about Pecorino?
- Oh God, I guess.
- If you're dyslexic like I am,
and you call it Pecorina, that's doggy style sex.
One letter difference.
- Uh what? - Yes.
- Yes, I remember that.
- All right so what do I say to my husband?
(speaks in Italian)
- What? (angry screaming)
- No (speaks in Italian).
- Bend over!
- What's Ricotta Salata?
Ricotta Salata is a dried Ricotta cheese.
- Yes, salata mean salted.
So they take the Ricotta, they press it
and the put some salt in it, it becomes semi-hard.
- Well I have a story about becoming semi-hard
and its not appropriate for a cooking show.
Wow, look at that sear you got there Frankie!
- It's fried Joey,
its not a sear. - Oh.
- It is caramelization happening I think.
- Don't belittle me on my own show please.
- Okay no, no, I don't mean to.
(laughing)
Mike or Nicole, I want to ask you guys a question.
When you were in Florence,
did you eat wild boar?
- Um. - Do you remember that?
That's like their ragu. - Well me and Mike
were very (bleeps) up during Italy.

- Boar is just like a,
um a male, a mean cow?
- It's a wild pig.
- They go (roars).
(laughs)
- Yes, they make that sound.
- Do it again. (roars)
(giggles)
- Now Frankie, I've been lettings this rest so it rises.
- Oh, it looks like boobies!
- You know what I need, I need that uh,
I need that wine bottle.
Stretch it out a little bit.
I will get it up.
- That's what she said (laughing).
- That's what she said.
- I walked right into that.
I'm gonna get the dough up and it's gonna be big.
- And...
Joey can help you get it big.
- Yeah, do you want me to help fluff you?
