Chef Jackie Bakula’s Strawberry Snow Burrata
Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome guest and co-host Chef Jackie “Sparkles” Bakula back to the kitchen for a summer appetizer that looks elegant without asking for much: creamy burrata topped with frozen strawberries grated into a light, icy “strawberry snow,” then finished with balsamic glaze, flaky sea salt, fresh basil, black pepper, and garlicky toast.
It is cold, creamy, sweet, savory, and exactly the kind of dish to make when it is too hot to cook but you still want something beautiful on the table. Jackie also shares why she stopped chasing viral food trends, started cooking what she genuinely wanted to eat with her family, and finally found her own voice online.
Along the way, they play Crave It, Save It or Skip It with summer drinks, cocktails, and movies; debate iced coffee culture and the worst possible way to encounter a shark; revisit some of their favorite, and most questionable, dishes from The Chew; and talk about the family, restaurant, food-brand, home-renovation, and writing projects they are excited about next.

Great show today! Agree with Michael with the continued success of Chewed up! Your channel rocks!
I love this show
This was such a fun show. Love Jackie, excited she’s on again this week. My favorite recipe from the Chew was the baked Brie Clinton made inside the sourdough boule. People go crazy for that as an app, great for the holidays with any jam you love. I vary the jam flavor and cut the Brie in half and put jam in the middle. Sooo delicious!!
Still have Michael's Sloppy Mike's from The Chew and make it frequently
I loved Carla’s falafel waffles from The Chew and lost the recipe. Now I can’t find it anywhere. Does anyone know if it’s in a cookbook somewhere? I wish she would make them again here! Please??? ❤️❤️❤️
I once had an amazing roasted golden beet and burrata salad, With a balsamic glaze sprinkled with pomegranate seeds , it was amazing.
That Caraway set looks awesome. Who has a drawer that neat? "You can never get enough Sparkles." So true!
Yay! More Sparkles!😁😁😁
We didn’t have the Snoopy sno-cone maker. We had a snowman sno-cone maker.
🙂
Will this work with dehydrated strawberries?
Didn’t like the way Jackie wanted all the attention
Going to try this! Had a strawberry bruschetta in Miami once and I was amazed how strawberry worked with it! Finally we addressed the lost Chew recipes 🙁 so sad. Thankfully wrote down Carla’s chicken pesto bake because I make it yearly for my daughters bday meal since it’s her favorite ❤️
Listen, we took our old Snoopy Snow Cone maker on a girls trip to an Air B&B in Vegas, and used it to make our frozen adult drinks!😂 Necessity is the mother of invention!
Hey Clinton and Michael…luv you guys since the Chew days🫶🤗..actually, have luv you Clinton since What Not to Wear days. I miss Carla. Be glad to see her return. The ABC YouTube channel actually has Season 6 of The Chew videos. They are segments I guess??…only seen one that is over like 10 mins with Carla. It may be more but I was tired of strolling.
RIP 🪦☔️ The Chew website
Clinton I cant wait to read your novel! And I hope you're getting on with the gay soup recipe book .. you need to add a little chapter somewhere for your potato roll recipes too!
Loved seeing Michaels mind explode with creativity when trying the strawberry burrata 🧠🍓✨️
Love seeing Jackie and hearing Chew memories❤
Wish everyone well 🙏🏻💕🌻
I grew up in Cleveland and I had a Snoopy snow cone machine, Michael, I think you're just too young to remember?
Jackie is a great guest! That was so much fun!🎉
I never had the Snoopy sno-cone maker but I absolutely remember that jingle.
You can never get enough Sparkles!
Jackie is so fun.
I have a “The Chew” recipe for Clinton’s Classic Pancakes that can be used to make Cinnamon Pecan Waffles! I still use the recipe today, because both are delicious. Good thing I printed it off in 2017! So glad you three decided to do Chewed Up. Love watching you unfiltered and having fun making delicious, accessible food!!
I have a Michael Symon baked potato casserole recipe from The Chew that I make every Thanksgiving! It was the episode where a viewer asked for help with watery mashed potatoes. Clinton took one bite of the bacon, gruyere and breadcrumb topping and made the best face ever!
Going to try it looks good
Carla coming on occasionally would be nice, but not all the time… I love the new guests and Michael and Clinton. Relaxed and fun
This just shows the impact of the show and your continuation. Great recipes and great memories.
I'm thinking a mixed green salad, with crumbled Bleu cheese, shaved frozen berries, and chopped walnuts withe a vinegar and oil dressing.
❤
Clinton, I have been making your Chicken Yakitori recipe from The Chew since 2017. Love Chewed Up!
I got a little teary eyed listening to you three talk about The Chew 🥹 It’s truly wonderful to have you all back in our lives! You really are a happy place ❤️
Yes but what kind of world will our grand kids have😮
I remember how excited you all were about Clinton's queso monkey bread. Would love to see that made again.
Love how Michael loves his grandkids <3
I own a chew ccokbook!
