Amy learns how to make tempura-battered fish tacos, guacamole with pea shoots and rice, and Chris learns how to make the perfect paloma.

As the quarantine continues, Amy Schumer and her husband, Chef Chris Fischer, decide the only possible cure for the lockdown blues is a good, old-fashioned carbo load.
