What BBN said on air

  1. Chip DarnellA viewer on bbn. live wants to make firecracker bamboo ramen topped with fish cake, a straw, lobster and crab, then sealed with edible rice paper you poke through.

  2. Gloria VanceA sealed bowl. Go on.

  3. Chip DarnellGloria, this is a vault.

  4. Chip DarnellYou've got lobster and crab on top, a paper door, and you have to break in before you get to eat.

  5. Gloria VanceRice paper softens fast in hot broth, so the lid lasts about a minute. Put it on right before serving, or it's a wet napkin.

  6. Chip DarnellAnd the straw in the fish cake? That's the lobster's snorkel.

  7. Gloria VanceSpicy broth up a straw is a decision you make once. Leave the straw out, Chip.

  8. Chip DarnellSo it's a heist with no getaway straw?

  9. Gloria VanceChip, it's soup. The only thing you're breaking into is the rice paper. Send yours to bbn. live.
