Cooking Mishaps

Jade seems to be doing good until one point when her friend, who is filming, points out that she shouldn’t have thrown out the egg yolks after separating them because she’ll need them later. She throws herself on the ground in embarrassment before jumping up to separate more eggs. “I promise I don’t waste food normally!” she assures viewers.
At another point, she pops in the other room to ask her mom if the kitchen utensil she found is a sifter. “And you just put flour in it?” she asks. De Laurentiis responds, “Yeah,” and then clarifies, “over a bowl” making Jade laugh. Her mom doesn’t want to take any chances!
