Two of the most common activities taking place while people physically distance at home include watching TV and trying new recipes. Comedian Amy Schumer and her professional chef husband Chris Fischer are combining those two things in a new cooking show for The Food Network. Premiering on Monday, May 11, Amy Schumer Learns to Cook will feature the Trainwreck star learning all the kitchen basics from Fischer. What could go wrong?In a new sneak peek of the cooking show shared by People, Schumer raises the bar on what can get pass the censors on The Food Network. The first of the eight-episode series shows the couple cooking delicious late-night snacks, including chicken wings, cookies and fried rice. Schumer also contributes to the meal by sharing her recipes for making the perfect Moscow Mule and her go-to late night snack of buttered Matzah with salt. "Spread a nice, thick layer of butter, cause be real with yourself, you're already having butter,” says Schumer in the clip. “Live your life.”[video_embed id='1948669']RELATED: Amy Schumer opens up about friendship with Oprah, family life[/video_embed]The couple’s young son Gene makes an adorable cameo in the sneak peek, which ends with Schumer and Fischer sharing their thoughts on the ongoing global pandemic and the impact it’s having on people’s everyday lives. “Everything that we’re doing is unnatural. We’re home, you guys are home, people are having a really hard time and there are beautiful moments,” said Schumer. “We’ve got to spend so much time with our family and that’s a plus. I’m also learning how to cook and that’s a minus,” joked Schumer.Speaking with Howard Stern in April, Schumer revealed that the couple was approached by The Food Network and agreed to film the series after the company made a $50,000 donation to the Middle Way House and the Immokalee Coalition of Fair Food Project, two charities Schumer and Fischer support. “I make jokes the whole time. It’s just us being ourselves, so I’m trashing him and he’s belittling me. We both have learning disabilities, so we lose focus,” said Schumer. “We fight, it’s ridiculous.”Having spent ten years working in bars, Schumer put herself in charge of crafting mixed drinks for each episode, sharing her tips on cocktails with viewers. “We’re half in the bag, but I am learning to cook, which is so cool because I really didn’t know.”The show was filmed in Schumer and Fischer’s friend’s home in Martha’s Vineyard where the couple have been isolating. Filming the show themselves, Schumer revealed that the couple’s nanny is their camera operator and scheduling took place while their son Gene was napping. “He wakes up, guess what? He’s on the show,” said Schumer, confirming that the tiny tot will make a handful of appearances.Schumer also talked about the benefits of leaving their home in New York City during quarantine and being thankful for the time and physical space the new parents have been able to enjoy with their son. "Gene can walk outside on the grass and we're not terrified. New York is tough. It was really heavy," she admitted. "I got to see him clap for the first time. It's such a luxury to spend this time with the baby."[video_embed id='-1']BEFORE YOU GO: This giggling fox might make you want a fox[/video_embed]
