Gabrielle Chappel
Gabrielle (Gabi) Chappel is a seasonally inspired chef and educator based in Brooklyn, NY. She is a graduate from the Institute of Culinary Education’s Health Supportive Culinary Arts program and focuses on plant based cooking. Gabi is the Season 3 Winner of Fox’s Next Level Chef and hosts pop up dinners, educational classes, and private events throughout New York City. Prior to Next Level Chef, Gabi became a “social media chef” through her guest appearances on Conde Nast’s Epicurious YouTube Channel where she became a staple of “4 Levels” and “Pro vs. Novice” amassing millions of views with each video. Gabi grew up in an agricultural town in Central Pennsylvania. She takes a lot of inspiration from the natural unfolding of the seasons within her dishes, and on occasion her Eastern European background through the way she grew up making food with her family. She loves outdoor adventures and gardening in her small backyard space in Brooklyn.
Socca with Grilled Peaches & Ricotta
Socca are thin, crispy chickpea pancakes that comes together very quickly making them the perfect vehicle for a variety of toppings. When stone fruit is at the market, I choose ripe, but still firm peaches and grill them, along with bright sungold tomatoes and a drizzle of my maple-orange juice syrup with a kick! I like heat in my sweet and a little bit sour syrup, but you can use less or eliminate altogether.
