Binging with Babish: Tater Tots from Breaking Bad

You might recall a memorable scene from Breaking Bad known as "Franch." It shows the character Peter Schuler consuming his last meal before committing suicide, a taste testing session that is so tragically mundane that it's downright silly. And since it involves food, it's another subject for Binging with Babish.

Andrew Rea makes every condiment from scratch, using fresh ingredients. They sound delicious, although labor intensive, with the exception of using corn syrup for authenticity. You can substitute sugar or honey if you want to make them yourself. Even the ketchup is made from scratch, which would be more appealing if it were made in summer with red tomatoes. Even the Tater Tots are made from scratch! Rea makes them with a recipe that's akin to potato pancakes. The recipes for all these sauces, and the tots, too, are available in text at the Binging with Babish website.
