There are few things I love as much as a cozy cooking show that teaches me about the ingredients I love to use in the kitchen, so I naturally adored From the Source‘s Season 3 episode on “Beans.” From the Source is one of the many quaint lifestyle shows that falls under Chip and Joanna Gaines’s Magnolia banner, meaning you can stream it on Max or Discovery+. The series follows chef Katie Button as she explores where the treasured ingredients in her kitchen are actually sourced. “Beans” was a particular thrill for me, a Rancho Gordo bean fan, since it profiles Steve Sando and his beloved heirloom beans. If you already know the joys of a pot of Rancho Gordos, I don’t need to sell you on any and all things beans. If you’re one of the skeptics, perhaps From the Source can convert you. Either way, it’s a delightful episode of a delightfully under-watched TV show.
