You can find out what she got at the end of the show, | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
but first it over to the fantastic Francesco Mazzi, who's cooking | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
something that may require you to pop to an Italian deli | :01:44. | :01:45. | |
for the ingredients, but trust me, it's going to be worth it. | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
A very simple dish called provatura, which is a gentle south Italian stew | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
with broad beans and peas, fantastic nduja, and ricotta mustia. | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
It comes from near where Stanley Tucci comes fromm, Spilinga. | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
It's a beautiful, soft, spreadable salami. | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
It's very good for sauce, very good for stewing. | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
So, we're just going to do this with peas and broad beans. | :02:13. | :02:35. | |
So what we are going to do now, I know you are blanching already | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
Fresh peas are really key, especially now, | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
Not really in my garden because the plants are that big. | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
Because the season in Italy is good now, when the season in Italy ends, | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
that is when it starts here, so you've got a long | :02:56. | :02:57. | |
You can do some Tropea onion, which is also very good. | :02:58. | :03:05. | |
I love Tropea at this time of the year, lovely scent. | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
It looks like a shallot, but it's got... | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
Imagine like this but with a shallot at the end. | :03:15. | :03:16. | |
And it's very red, and it's called cipolla rossa, | :03:17. | :03:18. | |
Basically inside is white, it's not red. | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
You can eat it with a piece of bread like that. | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
You could practise with your tuna tartare that you did before. | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
You see, there is no sign in England saying, bread and butter. | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
So, we sweat this, we didn't add any olive oil, because there is lot, | :03:34. | :03:44. | |
Now, the spice of this, this is quite hot? | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
Yes, it is quite hot, but not very, very strong. | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
It similar to Sopressata, a Spanish stuff, but they used smoked paprika. | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
Now, this is raw, you have to cook it? | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
People have recently seen you on TV, MasterChef, you were doing | :04:05. | :04:15. | |
It was a great night with Marcus and friends, | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
and Massimo Bottura was cooking, one of the best Italian chefs we've | :04:24. | :04:25. | |
So I'm going to add some marsala for a bit of sweetness to this dish. | :04:26. | :04:33. | |
And I'm going to start to chop these beautiful herbs. | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
I was looking at Stanley's cookbook, it looks like one | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
This looks like one of the dishes from your cookbook, as well! | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
It's actually one of the recipes from my book, | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
And then you basically chop in mint, unusually, in this. | :04:56. | :05:13. | |
So we are just going to add the mint here. | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
And you can see, it is nice and creamy, | :05:19. | :05:33. | |
This is called ricotta mustia, and this is a Sardinian cheese. | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
It's very pungent with a zingy taste and is kind of smoked, as well. | :05:40. | :05:49. | |
And its great, obviously if you pan-fry it or simply grill | :05:50. | :05:51. | |
this one, it's great also to serve is a dessert with berries, | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
It is 85% sheep and 15% cow, but they sometimes makes it. | :05:55. | :06:07. | |
Whenever you go to different areas of Sardinia, like everything | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
Now we can find this in any delicatessen in London, as well. | :06:10. | :06:17. | |
Seasoning wise, just a little bit of black pepper? | :06:18. | :06:19. | |
Going to be black pepper and a little bit of salt | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
So that cheese, you are just going to crumble over the top? | :06:22. | :06:30. | |
I've just tested it for the first time this morning. | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
It particularly goes well with the spiciness. | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
I don't know how to say it like that. | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
And interesting, if you've got this, I love these. | :06:45. | :07:04. | |
These are black fennel seeds, they come from Pollino | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
They are very gentle in the taste, and they really lift the dish. | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
We use a lot of these things when we make our own salami. | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
How do they differ from a regular fennel seed? | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
So, I've got this beautiful pea shoots all around, | :07:22. | :07:34. | |
I've got some borage flowers, I quite like these | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
So that looks much better than in rehearsal! | :07:40. | :07:51. | |
Such a simple dish, but looks fantastic. | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
This is the key of Italian cooking, simplicity making great food. | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
I thought it was just a plank of wood with a hinge on it, but anyway. | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
Provatura with broad beans, ricotta mustia, peas and nduja. | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
The man's pretty good, and you get to dive into this, as well. | :08:08. | :08:21. | |
Tell us what you think of this one, Stanley. | :08:22. | :08:23. | |
It's a plate of springtime, isn't it? | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
There's a little bit of spice in there, but that | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
The whole combination goes incredibly well. | :08:35. | :08:36. | |
So, to quote Stanley Tucci there, that really was | :08:37. | :08:51. | |
Coming up, James cooks up a Manchester tart with a difference | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
for singer Gareth Gates, but first, it's over to Rick Stein, | :08:56. | :08:57. | |
who's in Lancashire visiting a very familiar face. | :08:58. | :09:10. | |
I'm on my way to Lancashire, and you've probably guessed why, | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
because on a culinary trip such as mine where I'm really looking | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
for good regional flavours and produce I have been eagerly | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
anticipating exploring the steamy depths of | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
So I rang up a friend of mine, Nigel Haworth at Northcote Manor, | :09:22. | :09:34. | |
who is fiercely passionate about anything that comes | :09:35. | :09:36. | |
from Lancashire and said please can you make me the ultimate hotpot? | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
We have been cooking this for four hours now. | :09:40. | :09:46. | |
I'm told, Rick, every household had one of these in Lancashire. | :09:47. | :09:57. | |
I don't think there is any dish that's more | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
That long, slow cooking is the thing that makes it so special. | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
We used to call it the cheap cuts of lamb, under shoulder, | :10:08. | :10:18. | |
neck and shin, and shin is really important to get that real | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
Quite often in the hotpot it is over poweringly rich. | :10:22. | :10:29. | |
The other thing that's good about this is the red cabbage. | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
The thing about these dishes it's like the accompaniments. | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
I think one of the main things about this area of Lancashire | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
we have absorbed some of the influences from people | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
When a lot of the Asian people were brought over to work | :10:44. | :10:51. | |
in the mills, et cetera, and they brought all the spices | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
over, you've now got with Lancashire hotspot a spicy red cabbage thaw | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
And it just, it enhances what is we're doing | :10:58. | :11:07. | |
So this is a today's Lancashire hotpot. | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
Well, I have to say, on my last trip to find | :11:12. | :11:13. | |
a perfect hotpot and indeed, I did find a perfect hotpot, | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
at Haworth's place, I couldn't find a hotpot in any pub or any | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
Lots of other food as usual, Creole ooking, Thai cooking, | :11:20. | :11:35. | |
you name it, but a local dish like hotpot, no chance! | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
And you just think what is wrong with this country when you've got | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
such a fantastic dish which goes so well with red wine, | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
Please, chefs out there, start cooking your Lancashire hotpot. | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
OK, first of all I'm using best end chops, | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
but I'm going to just trim the whole end off because the whole thing | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
about hotpot is not to get too much fat in there, | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
otherwise it is just, you know, a bit over powering. | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
So just excuse me, I'm going to have to look down here now. | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
Cutting myself with a mandolin with one thing, but chopping my | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
fingers off is not the same joke I think you'll agree. | :12:05. | :12:28. | |
It is knocking all that off and you've got a neat little chop | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
like that which will look really good in the finished stew there. | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
One thing I picked up from Nigel and it's a good idea is to use lamb | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
shank because when that cooks over a long period it makes the stew | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
I'm going to slice some lamb shank and put that in as well. | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
Some recipes do have lambs kidneys and some don't, | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
but I like a few kidneys and I've just cut them in half and removed | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
I'm just hand slicing the potatoes, you can use a mandolin, | :12:55. | :13:03. | |
but if you're doing it by hand they end up thicker and you need | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
a chunkier slice because otherwise they break down in the cooking. | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
To make up the hotpot, you brush the bottom of the pan | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
with some melted butter to some the potatoes from stickingment | :13:13. | :13:14. | |
begin with potatoes, and build up the stew in layers. | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
Half chops and half shin and some of the kidneys. | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
I think it goes particularly well with lamb. | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
A good quantity of salt, and freshly ground black pepper. | :13:27. | :13:28. | |
You often find other ingredients in a hotpot, I've added kidneys, | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
but sometimes they put in black pudding, mushrooms, and even oysters | :13:32. | :13:33. | |
It's important to season every layer and finally just some chicken stock, | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
There will be so much flavour in the stew anyway. | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
Top with a neat layer of potatoes because you want it to look pretty | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
when it comes out of the oven, all brown and crackling. | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
Just press those down a little bit and a little bit | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
Actually this Lancashire hotpot came from a time when nobody had ovens | :13:54. | :14:02. | |
and everybody took their individual pots to the local baker who put it | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
in the baker's oven after he'd done his bread and then | :14:06. | :14:08. | |
when you came back from a shift at the mill, | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
there was your pot all bubbling and hot, hence hotpot. | :14:11. | :14:18. | |
I'm putting it in the oven more about two hours, | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
but it's even better if you can leave it more about six | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
I took the lid off for the last 20 minutes. | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
I can't think why regional stews like this are not more | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
I mean, think of the similar dish, Scouse from Liverpool or Irish stew | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
All of them so good that if they were in France they would be | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
famous regional specialities like Bouillabaisse in Marseille, | :14:46. | :14:47. | |
coq au vin in Burgundy or cassoulet in the Languedoc. | :14:48. | :14:55. | |
Then to finish off some pickled red cabbage which adds such a sharp | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
Still in Lancashire, I'm going to see the famous | :14:59. | :15:06. | |
Mrs Kirkham who owns a small farm in the shadow | :15:07. | :15:08. | |
I've used her Lancashire cheese in my restaurant | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
There are probably lots of people who think she is a product of some | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
marketing man's imagination like Mr Kipling, but she | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
and her son Graham do make exceedingly good cheeses. | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
Why we started making cheese all those years | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
because we were on a small farm with only 30 acres here. | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
We decided to make cheese to keep us going in some industry. | :15:38. | :15:44. | |
It is like a little cottage industry and it has actually | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
If I hadn't made cheese, we would be out of farming many years ago. | :15:48. | :15:58. | |
It's like looking after a baby, really. | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
Each one is individual and you like them to have a lovely | :16:04. | :16:09. | |
finish to them so if you make a nice job of binding them, | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
I was surprised they matured the cheese in an old | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
I thought it would be in a cool stone cellar. | :16:18. | :16:24. | |
This is around six to eight weeks old. | :16:25. | :16:26. | |
So the curd is starting to break down and this cheese | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
is starting to go creamy, but you still get | :16:30. | :16:31. | |
Graham, Mrs Kirkham's son, reminded me of a fine winemaker | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
and indeed, cheese is a bit like making wine, both | :16:39. | :16:40. | |
from the point of the view of the living culture that's added | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
to the milk and the long maturing process. | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
Although I was taken aback at first, I really liked the trailer. | :16:48. | :16:50. | |
It's making use of everything and it does the job. | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
It's not just when you eat it, but once you've eaten and it has | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
gone, you'll get this fantastic flavour in your mouth and it'll last | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
I love Mrs Kirkham's cheese and I can think of no better way | :17:00. | :17:12. | |
of eating it than with some nice crusty bread and a pint of beer | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
and pickled onions, but one of the things I noticed about it, | :17:17. | :17:19. | |
it's very crumbly and I was talking to a friend the other day | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
and she was saying why don't you have any nice big salads | :17:23. | :17:31. | |
for us ladies that lunch at lunch-time in your restaurant? | :17:32. | :17:33. | |
I was thinking yes, she has got a point. | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
So I thought of Mrs Kirkham's cheese and this is what I did. | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
I made up some mixed salad leaves including baby beetroot, | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
I poured on olive oil and sprinkled with salt and some black pepper | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
Then I thinly sliced some Lancashire cheese and crumbled it. | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
What's special about this cheese is that it's creamy, | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
but also has a pleasing acidity about it. | :17:56. | :18:02. | |
I started with some of the leaves and then I took some panchetto | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
which is like very fine streaky bacon. | :18:06. | :18:07. | |
I had already fried it until crisp with a little bit | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
Next, the first lot of cheese, followed by some beetroot which I'd | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
steeped in wine vinegar with a little chilli and garlic. | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
I added more leaves, gradually building up a really | :18:19. | :18:20. | |
interesting lunch dish, designed specifically for the sort | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
of people that like a big salad and a glass of Chardonnay | :18:24. | :18:26. | |
Now then, it may not be the rufty-tufty way of eating | :18:27. | :18:35. | |
Mrs Kirkham's cheese, but for the ladies that lunch | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
in my restaurant it does very well, thank you. | :18:39. | :18:46. | |
One of the oldest dishes in the land is black pudding | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
and here in Waterford they make a champion one. | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
As you know, it's made with blood and cereal. | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
In this case, it's oatmeal and pearl barley is added. | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
And that's all been puffed up because it has been soaking | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
Mixed herbs are put in like parsley, sage, thyme and particularly penny | :19:05. | :19:11. | |
royal and fresh blood from the local abattoir. | :19:12. | :19:13. | |
Once you get over the idea of the blood, there is | :19:14. | :19:26. | |
nothing awful that goes in the black pudding. | :19:27. | :19:28. | |
The next thing to go in is pork back fat and to me it's the quality | :19:29. | :19:31. | |
of this that really distinguishes great puddings from mediocre ones. | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
Andrew Holt is a champion black pudding-maker and a knight | :19:38. | :19:39. | |
They promise to uphold the tradition and to promote black | :19:40. | :19:46. | |
When you become a knight you have to swear an allegiance | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
It's quite a strange affair really. So yeah, I'm Sir Black Pudding! | :19:53. | :20:03. | |
Like all sausages, it has to have a first-class skin. | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
Andrew just wraps them up into little hoops and then simmers | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
When they're cooked they don't look particularly appetising. | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
In fact, anything but, but they smell wonderful | :20:21. | :20:22. | |
and when they're hung up to dry, they take on that | :20:23. | :20:24. | |
Is that how you cut them? You don't slice them the other way? | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
When you're having it as a snack, you serve it like that. | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
So mustard, salt, pepper or whatever it is you want on it. | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
Let me just taste a bit and I'll tell you what I'd want on it! | :20:41. | :20:43. | |
Oh, it would be really nice with some mustard. | :20:44. | :21:03. | |
Do you have those posh spuds called dauphinoise? | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
You know dauphinoise potatoes like layers of potatoes? | :21:07. | :21:08. | |
Black pudding is commonly eaten with bacon and eggs for breakfast, | :21:09. | :21:22. | |
but I also like it simply done sauteed with some | :21:23. | :21:24. | |
You fry the apples in a pan with a little bit of unsalted | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
butter and then add the sliced black pudding. | :21:29. | :21:30. | |
They don't take more than a few seconds to fry on each side. | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
Then add some pepper and a pinch of salt. | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
Now I deglaze the pan with a little bit of cider and I let it bubble | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
down adding some more unsalted butter as it does and then | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
I pour the juices over everything on the plate. | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
Do you know, it really is irresistible. | :21:50. | :21:57. | |
Just by chance while I was with Andrew, a man came to the back door | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
Instead of going to the shops and anywhere else, I come here. | :22:02. | :22:11. | |
I come all the way just to pick some black puddings and I take | :22:12. | :22:14. | |
It keeps him alive and keeps him going and all. | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
I've never seen him before in my life! | :22:23. | :22:36. | |
Now, as much as it pains me to say it as a | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
Yorkshireman, there are some great ingredients and great dishes from | :22:41. | :22:42. | |
Lancashire, and both black pudding I love, and hotpot, | :22:43. | :22:44. | |
although I do my own Yorkshire version of it. | :22:45. | :22:46. | |
And there are some delicious sweet things, | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
too, from that part of the | :22:50. | :22:50. | |
But one that you will probably not know of very | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
It was on the school dinner menu back | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
in the '70s, which was this version, but they didn't toast it. | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
This is literally a tartlet where you put | :23:03. | :23:04. | |
raspberry jam on the top, a very well-known custard out of a packet | :23:05. | :23:07. | |
over the top, and then some coconut over the top, | :23:08. | :23:09. | |
That is what you would normally have. | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
I'm going to do my version of it, which is very similar, so we | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
We are going to make a custard base, fresh | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
custard, but I'm going to make a creme patissiere, which is a pastry | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
It's kind of a twist on that, but it uses egg yolks, which we've | :23:24. | :23:33. | |
It uses vanilla, which I'm going to pop in there | :23:34. | :23:36. | |
And then I'm going to fold in some whipped cream | :23:37. | :23:44. | |
with it, I'm going to make a simple little custard with a bit of | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
cornflour, a bit of sugar, and that's that. | :23:49. | :23:49. | |
Now, me and you have got something in common. | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
Yes, we are both in the Guinness book of records, did | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
You're slightly more successful than me, I have to | :23:58. | :24:02. | |
say, because you were the youngest person ever to get a number one | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
Yes, the youngest, I think it's male solo | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
The world's fastest carrot peeler and chopper. | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
And we've got something else in common. | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
I actually did play Joseph at school. | :24:18. | :24:18. | |
Yes, up until about the second show, and I | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
got kicked out and got promoted, which they said was promoted, I | :24:23. | :24:24. | |
classed it as a demotion, to lighting. | :24:25. | :24:26. | |
And then I got sacked from that because I was too | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
But Joseph, we talked about it at the top of the show. | :24:31. | :24:41. | |
It must be incredible, because you appeared in it | :24:42. | :24:43. | |
when you were a young kid, and to be at the West End, a | :24:44. | :24:46. | |
You took over from Lee Mead in February? | :24:47. | :24:49. | |
That's right. It's a fantastic show. | :24:50. | :24:51. | |
There's been some massive names that have done it in the past. | :24:52. | :24:53. | |
Who started it? Was it...? | :24:54. | :24:55. | |
Was it Phil Schofield who started it? | :24:56. | :24:58. | |
It was Jason Donovan first. Then it was Phillip Schofield. | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
And then it was Donny Osmond, and then they brought | :25:03. | :25:05. | |
it back with the show with Lee Mead, and it was... | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
And you are doing it till the end of May? | :25:11. | :25:18. | |
30th of May, yeah. That's the last show. | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
And what next? Are you going back into the studio? | :25:24. | :25:25. | |
Musical theatre, I've never done it before. | :25:26. | :25:27. | |
It's my first venture into musical theatre, | :25:28. | :25:29. | |
So hopefully more of the same for now. | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
I'd love to make an album again in the future, | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
Theatre is quite a big commitment, isn't it, really? | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
Eight shows a week, we do two on a Wednesday, two on a | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
And the only day we have off is a Sunday. | :25:52. | :26:02. | |
Right, I'm going to show you this custard now. | :26:03. | :26:04. | |
All we do is just mix this together with a bit | :26:05. | :26:06. | |
of cornflour, the whole lot gets thrown in as well. | :26:07. | :26:09. | |
Now, normally, creme patissiere is obviously French, but | :26:10. | :26:12. | |
normally you would do it with a bit of flour, | :26:13. | :26:15. | |
whereas if you do it with cornflour, you don't | :26:16. | :26:17. | |
And if I put it back on the stove and heat it up, it starts | :26:18. | :26:22. | |
It will thicken up so it is quite thick. | :26:23. | :26:32. | |
And then all we do is just transfer that, I will leave | :26:33. | :26:34. | |
that on there, into a bowl which we've got in here. | :26:35. | :26:37. | |
This is your creme patissiere. So it's quite a thick mixture. | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
And all we do with that is bake our flan case blind, | :26:41. | :26:43. | |
Over here you see this start to thicken up. | :26:44. | :26:54. | |
Now, if you keep using your whisk, it shouldn't get | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
If you keep mixing this together, it will actually start to thicken up | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
It starts to thicken up, gets thicker and thicker and | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
Keep whisking it, there you go, and it's now, that's what the | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
Cool that down, and you end up with what | :27:12. | :27:14. | |
Now to transform it into a dessert which I think will | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
look nice, we've got some raspberry jam and a bit of coconut. | :27:19. | :27:21. | |
Now, talking of sort of childhood food. | :27:22. | :27:23. | |
The one thing that I couldn't believe when I was reading about you | :27:24. | :27:27. | |
What on earth is this sandwich thing that you like? | :27:28. | :27:30. | |
What's this mashed potato sandwich? I cannot believe this! | :27:31. | :27:35. | |
Now I've tasted some dodgy stuff in my time. | :27:36. | :27:38. | |
I don't know. I think it's just comfort food. | :27:39. | :27:41. | |
After I've had a little bit of a night out, I just | :27:42. | :27:44. | |
It's lovely. You must try it! | :27:45. | :27:51. | |
No, Gareth, no. Mashed potato? | :27:52. | :27:52. | |
It's creamy, it's stodge, it's carbs in a | :27:53. | :28:02. | |
Beef, normally, that's what I would normally want in it! | :28:03. | :28:10. | |
Anyway, we just mix this with some double cream. | :28:11. | :28:13. | |
Now, this is what we call creme legere. | :28:14. | :28:16. | |
So we are turning it from creme patissiere into creme legere. | :28:17. | :28:19. | |
Now, this is what you would normally fill | :28:20. | :28:22. | |
with eclairs, which is that pastry cream and double cream mixed | :28:23. | :28:25. | |
Now, to transform it even more, this is raspberry on the | :28:26. | :28:31. | |
I'm going to take some fresh raspberries and place that on | :28:32. | :28:37. | |
I'm going to toast off the remaining bit of coconut on there. | :28:38. | :28:44. | |
You have just come back from the Maldives where | :28:45. | :28:50. | |
you have been fishing for some nice fish, you are very interested in it? | :28:51. | :28:54. | |
Yeah, we went to a place where you had your own Maldivian boat, and | :28:55. | :28:58. | |
we went out into the ocean and went fishing. | :28:59. | :29:02. | |
We caught some tuna and some red snapper, and we were able to then | :29:03. | :29:07. | |
take it back and the chef made it for us. | :29:08. | :29:13. | |
And I believe you cook a mean pad Thai, as well? | :29:14. | :29:16. | |
Now you've got a family, congratulations are in order. | :29:17. | :29:18. | |
Do you want to wave? I suppose he's too young. | :29:19. | :29:24. | |
I'm the chef in the house, certainly. | :29:25. | :29:31. | |
With eight shows a week, I bet they go hungry! | :29:32. | :29:36. | |
So, what we do is just quennelle this. | :29:37. | :29:39. | |
You can pipe your own, whatever you want. | :29:40. | :29:41. | |
If you've got a bit more time, you can make it | :29:42. | :29:44. | |
Now, I know people from Manchester will be | :29:45. | :29:47. | |
screaming at the TV say this looks nothing like a Manchester tart. | :29:48. | :29:50. | |
But you've got the similar ingredients. | :29:51. | :29:51. | |
All I've done is just made my own custard, | :29:52. | :29:54. | |
whip up some cream, and the idea is we just literally | :29:55. | :29:56. | |
So it's kind of like a Yorkshire version of it. | :29:57. | :30:04. | |
Over in the pan here I've got some toasted coconut, grab that and | :30:05. | :30:07. | |
just literally sprinkle that over the top. | :30:08. | :30:12. | |
There you go. That's the whole point of it! | :30:13. | :30:21. | |
I can't sing, mate, but there you go. | :30:22. | :30:25. | |
And we just pile more of these fresh raspberries over the | :30:26. | :30:28. | |
edge, and the idea is we take a big wedge, now, Gareth, there you go. | :30:29. | :30:32. | |
And we take a nice big wedge of this. | :30:33. | :30:36. | |
That's like no Manchester tart I've ever had. | :30:37. | :31:02. | |
Today we are taking a look back at some | :31:03. | :31:06. | |
of the best recipes from the | :31:07. | :31:07. | |
Saturday Kitchen archives, and there are still loads | :31:08. | :31:09. | |
Up next is a New Zealand chef who knows a thing or two about | :31:10. | :31:14. | |
It's great to have him cooking especially for us today, | :31:15. | :31:21. | |
So, tell us what we're cooking, first of all. | :31:22. | :31:27. | |
I'm going to make a nice basting with the two main | :31:28. | :31:31. | |
A little bit of umeboshi, which I will go | :31:32. | :31:34. | |
Some spices here, some five spice, mild curry, some ginger, | :31:35. | :31:38. | |
fresh ginger, and we are going to serve that with a salad with some | :31:39. | :31:41. | |
mango, some daikon, some shisho and just a little bit of watercress | :31:42. | :31:44. | |
I would probably start with those lotus root chips, | :31:45. | :31:58. | |
You can buy this from Japanese supermarkets nowadays? | :31:59. | :32:09. | |
The best one you've got there is the fresh, | :32:10. | :32:13. | |
and you can also get it in a tin, although the tin carries too much | :32:14. | :32:16. | |
water or moisture for what we want to achieve here. | :32:17. | :32:19. | |
So we've got the fresh stuff here, which I'm going to | :32:20. | :32:21. | |
slice and then deep fat fryer, is that right? | :32:22. | :32:23. | |
Yes, I just shallow fry it with a little touch of | :32:24. | :32:26. | |
cornstarch and shallow fry in a little bit of rice bran oil. | :32:27. | :32:29. | |
So, the duck, you are scoring the skin. | :32:30. | :32:34. | |
Yes, the duck I have taken of any off the membrane, and then I've | :32:35. | :32:38. | |
just scored the fat, and I'm going to put it skin side | :32:39. | :32:41. | |
I'm going to slice these on the old mandolin. | :32:42. | :33:00. | |
If you haven't got one of these at home, | :33:01. | :33:03. | |
thinly, thinly, thinly with a knife, but ideally you want one of these | :33:04. | :33:06. | |
So tell us a little bit about your food. | :33:07. | :33:09. | |
We love this modern Japanese cooking, don't | :33:10. | :33:10. | |
What we are doing here is bringing to the | :33:11. | :33:16. | |
restaurant scene a new element of Japanese cuisine. | :33:17. | :33:17. | |
Everybody things Japanese cuisine is raw fish and | :33:18. | :33:19. | |
rice, so we've brought a whole robatayaki cuisine, | :33:20. | :33:21. | |
Which is definitely not raw and with rice. | :33:22. | :33:25. | |
And this is actually where this comes from. | :33:26. | :33:27. | |
This dish here is from the robata, but obviously I | :33:28. | :33:30. | |
and it is literally just cooking on skewers over the charcoal, | :33:31. | :33:38. | |
It comes from the southern regions of Japan. | :33:39. | :33:42. | |
So what I've got to make this basting, about a tablespoon of | :33:43. | :33:44. | |
honey, and then this is umeboshi paste, which is a pickled plum | :33:45. | :33:47. | |
And this is where a little bit of the Western touch comes into | :33:48. | :33:51. | |
Traditionally the umeboshi is used to put on the | :33:52. | :33:55. | |
rice as opposed to soy and that sort of thing. | :33:56. | :33:57. | |
Now, this has got a mountain touch as well, you see. | :33:58. | :34:00. | |
That this comes from the Japanese Alps? | :34:01. | :34:05. | |
It might make your cheeks implode, but I think it's delicious. | :34:06. | :34:10. | |
It's a bit sour, but you need that honey in it, I take it, with | :34:11. | :34:16. | |
It is the fruitiness that lends itself to the duck. | :34:17. | :34:31. | |
Make your cheeks implode, get you salivating. | :34:32. | :34:34. | |
But mixed with that honey, it does work. | :34:35. | :34:38. | |
Exactly, with the honey, with the ginger, it's really | :34:39. | :34:40. | |
So I'm just going to bind all this together. | :34:41. | :34:44. | |
That should be nice and golden, I reckon, pretty | :34:45. | :34:51. | |
So I'm just going to take out that excess | :34:52. | :34:56. | |
What happens when you are cooking on these griddles, what | :34:57. | :35:05. | |
That's the beauty of this charcoal cooking, | :35:06. | :35:12. | |
because the fat actually drips down, create the smoke, and it gets that | :35:13. | :35:15. | |
That's half of a barbecue, is the smoky flavour. | :35:16. | :35:18. | |
So I've got all this in here, just a touch more umeboshi. | :35:19. | :35:21. | |
Now, you want these slightly thick, do you? | :35:22. | :35:26. | |
They are going to match the duck slices. | :35:27. | :35:32. | |
So what I've got here, I'm just putting some of this | :35:33. | :35:34. | |
And if you could just pop that in the oven for me, | :35:35. | :35:38. | |
That size there, I'd say about nine minutes on 160. | :35:39. | :35:48. | |
I want it on 160 because I want a slow | :35:49. | :35:51. | |
cooking so the meat doesn't really lock up hard. | :35:52. | :35:53. | |
And I've got one that's been in here for about eight | :35:54. | :35:55. | |
So I am going to add a little touch of lemon juice now, and | :35:56. | :36:02. | |
we are going to turn this into our dressing. | :36:03. | :36:04. | |
The lemon juice is going to soften down. | :36:05. | :36:07. | |
I'm going to go and get the daikon, which is over here. | :36:08. | :36:10. | |
This is this huge great white thing that | :36:11. | :36:13. | |
people are looking at at home, you can buy it from your | :36:14. | :36:16. | |
But you can buy that from Asian shops? | :36:17. | :36:30. | |
We use a machine just a whirl it round. | :36:31. | :36:34. | |
He has started already, it is his first time on the show, and | :36:35. | :36:46. | |
I thought you looked a bit too relaxed before. | :36:47. | :36:48. | |
We've got some shisho leaf, which is the large green. | :36:49. | :36:57. | |
This fellow who almost looks like a nettle to people at home. | :36:58. | :37:00. | |
They say it's a cross between mint and basil. | :37:01. | :37:02. | |
And then you've got some shisho cress, which is the cress of it. | :37:03. | :37:05. | |
And then we've got some watercress to give it that | :37:06. | :37:09. | |
I've dusted these in a little bit of cornflour, and what | :37:10. | :37:23. | |
I would use a touch of shichimi pepper. | :37:24. | :37:30. | |
It is a bit like a chilli pepper, but it's | :37:31. | :37:33. | |
got a little bit of sesame, et cetera, in there. | :37:34. | :37:41. | |
Six pieces for that, and I'll take a few. | :37:42. | :37:53. | |
It's the same marinade, but I've just popped a | :37:54. | :37:59. | |
touch of lemon juice in there just to help soften it down, and to | :38:00. | :38:03. | |
You are going to enjoy this, I tell you. | :38:04. | :38:07. | |
This is a fabulous restaurant, and to get a table in your restaurant, | :38:08. | :38:10. | |
what does it take's yesterday you were telling us you did 190 | :38:11. | :38:13. | |
So it is pretty hectic at the moment. | :38:14. | :38:21. | |
So you want me to put a few of those on? | :38:22. | :38:30. | |
And the reason you put everything in piles? | :38:31. | :38:34. | |
The reason things are in piles is it was a bit of a headache | :38:35. | :38:38. | |
at first, but being a Japanese restaurant, we don't serve with | :38:39. | :38:40. | |
knife and fork, so everything is in little bite-size pieces. | :38:41. | :38:43. | |
So I just add these little extra pieces to the | :38:44. | :38:45. | |
Notice how he's using the chopsticks. | :38:46. | :38:57. | |
And then you want a bit of that round the edge? | :38:58. | :39:03. | |
That just looks, and I bet it tastes, | :39:04. | :39:06. | |
So, Nic, remind us what that dish is again. | :39:07. | :39:11. | |
Duck breast with honey and sansho pepper, daikon shisho and | :39:12. | :39:13. | |
I got a little murmur from over there. | :39:14. | :39:23. | |
I don't know how I'm going to pick it up. | :39:24. | :39:30. | |
Take a whole little pile of that, and take some of the radish as | :39:31. | :39:46. | |
Could you do that with fish and bits and | :39:47. | :39:51. | |
The same marinade would be hard to marry with a fish, but | :39:52. | :39:55. | |
definitely the plum with the ginger would | :39:56. | :39:56. | |
definitely go across, but I | :39:57. | :39:57. | |
I was so unconvinced when I first tried that | :39:58. | :40:08. | |
I went to Japan on tour with the show when I was | :40:09. | :40:12. | |
about 17, and all I ate was fast food, because I didn't like any of | :40:13. | :40:16. | |
Yes, it is an interpretation, but you would | :40:17. | :40:23. | |
definitely find the ingredients and the flavours, you would find the | :40:24. | :40:26. | |
sansho and the plum, the combinations would be there. | :40:27. | :40:28. | |
Lots of really interesting flavours in | :40:29. | :40:35. | |
Japanese cuisine, and it's worth seeking | :40:36. | :40:36. | |
them out and giving them a | :40:37. | :40:37. | |
Now for more brilliant Keith Floyd, and this week he is gracing | :40:38. | :40:45. | |
You will, with a little patience, see a great chef prepare my | :40:46. | :40:59. | |
Feast on the humble sprat, and with any luck indulge | :41:00. | :41:03. | |
in the first scallops of the season, which we are | :41:04. | :41:06. | |
To most people, I suppose a scallop represents an ashtray, you know, | :41:07. | :41:15. | |
seen in a seaside hotel or something like that. | :41:16. | :41:17. | |
But to me, it's one of the most succulent and versatile of | :41:18. | :41:20. | |
all the shellfish that surround the shores of Great Britain. | :41:21. | :41:26. | |
We've come out to catch them, and you know in | :41:27. | :41:30. | |
the normal kind of colour supplement cookery programme or the television | :41:31. | :41:32. | |
cookery programmes, they all make a big song and dance about walking | :41:33. | :41:35. | |
round the market saying, I only come to buy the most fresh fish. | :41:36. | :41:38. | |
Here on Floyd on Fish, we actually go out | :41:39. | :41:40. | |
The scallops, you can cook in all sort of different ways. | :41:41. | :41:46. | |
The Japanese for example eat them raw. | :41:47. | :41:47. | |
The Chinese stir-fry them with beansprouts. | :41:48. | :41:49. | |
The French often cook them with a thin creamy white sauce | :41:50. | :41:51. | |
Often the British of course, because they are | :41:52. | :41:54. | |
a bit tedious about fish, invariably surround with mashed potato and | :41:55. | :41:57. | |
smother it with cheese and put it under the grill. | :41:58. | :41:59. | |
We have been here since five o'clock this morning. | :42:00. | :42:12. | |
I am going to have a little snack to start the day. | :42:13. | :42:15. | |
Just to really put me in fine fettle, a beautiful fresh | :42:16. | :42:18. | |
While the camera crew wipe the spray from their lens, and the | :42:19. | :42:27. | |
director changes his frock, I thought you'd like to see the | :42:28. | :42:30. | |
But be warned, because fishermen won't | :42:31. | :42:33. | |
take kindly to any of you putting on your wetsuits | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
They are shooting off like some I know | :42:39. | :42:48. | |
when it's their turn to pay for a round. | :42:49. | :42:51. | |
Can you come in on that one, so that anybody | :42:52. | :43:04. | |
who doesn't know what a | :43:05. | :43:05. | |
In France, they are known as escargot | :43:06. | :43:09. | |
And so that's for sure that this lot won't end up in | :43:10. | :43:14. | |
the ubiquitous bath of vinegar so beloved of the British shellfish | :43:15. | :43:17. | |
One of the you might almost say by-products of coming out scallop | :43:18. | :43:26. | |
fishing is catching these magnificent spider crabs. | :43:27. | :43:28. | |
All of these are going to Spain, to France, to | :43:29. | :43:32. | |
Italy, and they will be the centrepiece of a most fabulous | :43:33. | :43:35. | |
Of fresh shellfish, scallops, mussels, | :43:36. | :43:51. | |
oysters, clams, Mediterranean prawns, and the centrepiece will be | :43:52. | :43:53. | |
this, scrubbed until it is pink and boiled, | :43:54. | :43:55. | |
placed in the centre and you | :43:56. | :43:56. | |
will crack open the claws, did it into yellow | :43:57. | :43:59. | |
mayonnaise and think, as | :44:00. | :44:00. | |
they must think, what fools the Brits are for not taking advantage | :44:01. | :44:03. | |
of the wonderful things we have got around our shores, the sort of thing | :44:04. | :44:06. | |
that a lot of really hard-working guys like Geoff, our skipper here, | :44:07. | :44:09. | |
spend all hours and weathers to catch. | :44:10. | :44:11. | |
And even more encouraging, there is a real renaissance in | :44:12. | :44:13. | |
English cooking at the moment, talented cooks using the very best | :44:14. | :44:16. | |
of the produce available in these islands. | :44:17. | :44:17. | |
Unfortunately, to my mind, consumers are still apathetic in | :44:18. | :44:19. | |
In almost any other sphere of their activities, | :44:20. | :44:22. | |
clothes, furnishings, holidays, they are precise, | :44:23. | :44:24. | |
they wouldn't dream of | :44:25. | :44:31. | |
booking a Verdi opera when they intended to go | :44:32. | :44:33. | |
They confuse expense with quality and decor with street cookability. | :44:34. | :44:43. | |
If catching them isn't enough you've got to clean the little things | :44:44. | :44:51. | |
and you need plenty of fresh running water, you need a cloth in case | :44:52. | :44:54. | |
you damage your hands, obviously the scallop and a knife. | :44:55. | :44:57. | |
Now the technique here, I'm not an expert anymore | :44:58. | :44:59. | |
than you might be is to run the knife in, which is quite tricky | :45:00. | :45:02. | |
and right the way through, round the back and this does take | :45:03. | :45:05. | |
Revealing, I'm afraid, this horrible sort of mess inside. | :45:06. | :45:14. | |
So we run the knife underneath the scallop there. | :45:15. | :45:21. | |
Throwing away the little nasty black pieces and this | :45:22. | :45:30. | |
other piece of membrane, leaving only the pink | :45:31. | :45:32. | |
coral and of course, the white main flesh of the fish. | :45:33. | :45:41. | |
We started off having a few drinks a day or two ago before we got | :45:42. | :45:54. | |
here and we thought about the idea, Bridport is near the sea. | :45:55. | :45:57. | |
Let's have the great Bridport International Scallop | :45:58. | :46:06. | |
Let's have the great Bridport International Scallop Festival. | :46:07. | :46:08. | |
Well, it's a crazy idea, but why not? | :46:09. | :46:15. | |
I mean after all food and eating and drinking | :46:16. | :46:17. | |
Around a table conversation takes place. | :46:18. | :46:19. | |
Out of ideas plays, festivals and theatre is created. | :46:20. | :46:23. | |
Anyway, I digress. I'm sorry I'm digressing. | :46:24. | :46:26. | |
I'm going to have another little slurp and then if you'll be kind | :46:27. | :46:30. | |
enough to come down to the important bit of the whole day's proceedings | :46:31. | :46:34. | |
OK, here they are, fresh, fresh, from the Dorset seaside, cleaned, | :46:35. | :46:42. | |
Don't look at me, I'm trying to explain the food! | :46:43. | :46:47. | |
This is a food programme you half wit. | :46:48. | :46:49. | |
Scallops, very simple, some chopped streaky bacon | :46:50. | :47:02. | |
Pepper, salt, you can't see so don't bother looking | :47:03. | :47:17. | |
OK, you know very well on this programme, despite the jokes | :47:18. | :47:32. | |
and despite the great International Scallop | :47:33. | :47:34. | |
Festival and despite our producer David Pritchard, | :47:35. | :47:35. | |
we are seriously concerned about good food and fresh food. | :47:36. | :47:38. | |
So if this takes a little time to cook, bear with me, | :47:39. | :47:41. | |
we don't pull things out of the oven that we just happen to have ready | :47:42. | :47:44. | |
Having said that, butter into the pan. | :47:45. | :47:47. | |
As I often make the point on these programmes, | :47:48. | :47:50. | |
when we're going to cook with butter we mean butter. | :47:51. | :47:52. | |
Then into our pan goes a little bacon which we've chopped and we'll | :47:53. | :48:00. | |
let that sweat down a bit because out of the butter, I know | :48:01. | :48:03. | |
this is difficult for you to see, but out of the butter and the bacon | :48:04. | :48:07. | |
fat we'll get some nice juices and some nice juices | :48:08. | :48:13. | |
in which to sautee the scallops and after all, if you're | :48:14. | :48:21. | |
going to have a star at an international festival | :48:22. | :48:27. | |
and it's called the Scallop Festival then I would say the scallop | :48:28. | :48:30. | |
OK. It's a good hot pan. | :48:31. | :48:41. | |
Very stylish provincial cooking this is. | :48:42. | :48:47. | |
You don't have to move the camera to look for me. | :48:48. | :48:50. | |
They know I've got to move to get the food. | :48:51. | :48:52. | |
It's the pot that counts. For heaven's sakes. | :48:53. | :48:54. | |
Everybody in TV is so concerned about doing their job properly | :48:55. | :48:58. | |
that they miss the damn point of the whole thing which is food! | :48:59. | :49:01. | |
OK. Scallops going into the pot. | :49:02. | :49:05. | |
Just stay with those for a moment, all right? | :49:06. | :49:09. | |
I might invite you back on the next show if you keep it up like this. | :49:10. | :49:13. | |
Right, there are the scallops being very lightly cooked in butter. | :49:14. | :49:18. | |
I know all of those of you who like me so much will be | :49:19. | :49:21. | |
disappointed right now that you can't see me. | :49:22. | :49:23. | |
You see, hold on a minute, come back. | :49:24. | :49:30. | |
Come back. This is very difficult for me. | :49:31. | :49:32. | |
I present television cookery programmes, but I'm not a director. | :49:33. | :49:35. | |
Could you get it right in future, please? | :49:36. | :49:41. | |
We've got this hot and bubbling away nicely. | :49:42. | :49:50. | |
Stay on the pot because I have to go away. | :49:51. | :49:58. | |
Then we're going to add a little parsley because we like colours | :49:59. | :50:01. | |
and flavours and flavours and colours come out of cooking | :50:02. | :50:06. | |
pots and smiling faces and cheerful cameramen! | :50:07. | :50:08. | |
Now Steve, this isn't really for you this next bit, | :50:09. | :50:20. | |
it's for the actual customers who are watching us. | :50:21. | :50:23. | |
Now, these scallops are nicely cooked now and if we leave them | :50:24. | :50:26. | |
in there any longer they will turn into pieces of rubber and that | :50:27. | :50:29. | |
So we're going to take them out to arrest the cooking process as far | :50:30. | :50:35. | |
as the scallops are concerned, but we must continue with the sauce. | :50:36. | :50:40. | |
We've got this little residue of juices which we're now | :50:41. | :50:50. | |
going to create into a beautiful sauce using some fresh cream | :50:51. | :50:53. | |
For you at home by the way this plate here, can | :50:54. | :50:58. | |
you come on to that plate, Steve, a second? | :50:59. | :51:00. | |
That would be kept warm, OK, but since none of you are | :51:01. | :51:03. | |
going to taste this, only me, I don't give a damn | :51:04. | :51:05. | |
whether it's hot or cold, but when you're trying | :51:06. | :51:08. | |
to impress your friends, because only people who watch these | :51:09. | :51:11. | |
sort of programmes are always doing that, aren't they? | :51:12. | :51:13. | |
Now then, we've bubbled the cream up because we want to get this sauce | :51:14. | :51:21. | |
A little tiny drop of white wine bacon and butter. | :51:22. | :51:29. | |
But we haven't got richness that we really want. | :51:30. | :51:36. | |
I'm costing too much money because of the film. | :51:37. | :51:39. | |
If you know what they paid me, you wouldn't believe | :51:40. | :51:42. | |
Egg yolks into here to ask me to worry about the price of film. | :51:43. | :51:51. | |
Stir the egg yolk in very, very quickly otherwise | :51:52. | :51:53. | |
We just want to use the egg to thicken the sauce | :51:54. | :51:57. | |
and then we pour it over the scallops like that. | :51:58. | :52:02. | |
A spoon for me and thank you all so much for coming, come up. | :52:03. | :52:10. | |
Ignored by gastronauts, the poor sprat has little chance. | :52:11. | :52:29. | |
And to add insult to injury, after an unscheduled stop | :52:30. | :52:31. | |
on the A38, this load won't even get into a tin of cat food. | :52:32. | :52:35. | |
But actually, these nutritious fish are inexpensive and tasty. | :52:36. | :52:40. | |
Forget the sardine, a smoked sprat makes a smashing cocktail snack | :52:41. | :52:43. | |
A couple of moments and we'll just turn them over. | :52:44. | :52:54. | |
Use your fingers if you're worried about anything. | :52:55. | :52:58. | |
And I think at the same time we'll give them another grind of pepper | :52:59. | :53:01. | |
There we are and we'll sprinkle a little parsley over them like that | :53:02. | :53:06. | |
and if you'll just bear with me for a second. | :53:07. | :53:09. | |
Another couple of seconds and they'll be ready to eat | :53:10. | :53:20. | |
as a really delightful appetiser or double them up and have a whole | :53:21. | :53:27. | |
plateful and make a meal of it, whichever way you | :53:28. | :53:29. | |
like and, of course a glass of dry cider or a glass | :53:30. | :53:32. | |
Even brown bread and butter and a cup of tea go down very well. | :53:33. | :53:40. | |
This is food for everybody, not just the gastronauts, but for everybody. | :53:41. | :53:43. | |
Now you will probably be sitting in your living rooms right now | :53:44. | :53:50. | |
reminiscing about the sardines you had on your Mediterranean | :53:51. | :53:53. | |
holiday and thinking my god, why can't we get food | :53:54. | :53:55. | |
That's really beautiful and for the price, who needs sardines? | :53:56. | :54:14. | |
Now, as ever on Best Bites we are looking back at some | :54:15. | :54:21. | |
of our favourite recipes from the Saturday Kitchen archives. | :54:22. | :54:23. | |
Still to come on today's show, it's omelette challenge time | :54:24. | :54:25. | |
as Monica and Shaun go head-to-head at the hobs. | :54:26. | :54:28. | |
We have a dish inspired by Turkish cuisine. | :54:29. | :54:34. | |
After marinading chicken thighs in cinnamon, | :54:35. | :54:40. | |
we pan fry them and serves them no home-made flatbreads | :54:41. | :54:42. | |
and Julia Bradbury faces her food when or food hell. | :54:43. | :54:45. | |
Braised seabass with asparagus or her food hell? | :54:46. | :54:53. | |
Or hell, crab souffle with radish and baby spinach and rocket salad | :54:54. | :54:56. | |
You can find out what she got at the end of the show. | :54:57. | :55:00. | |
Up next, it is Claude Bosi with a dish that's fairly easy | :55:01. | :55:03. | |
On the menu today is we've got some cod on the menu. | :55:04. | :55:08. | |
T that cod has been in salt and sugar for 20 minutes. | :55:09. | :55:12. | |
That cod has been in salt and sugar for 20 minutes. | :55:13. | :55:18. | |
So you just put salt and sugar on it, nothing else? | :55:19. | :55:21. | |
So that's been well like a dry brine then. | :55:22. | :55:39. | |
That's it. Take the moisture. | :55:40. | :55:40. | |
Sometimes the cod can be quite watery. | :55:41. | :55:42. | |
Right. So what do you do with that? | :55:43. | :55:50. | |
The idea of it, you don't want to go too fast because you will | :55:51. | :55:53. | |
And then you get your glaze like this. | :55:54. | :55:58. | |
It's just basically the liquid reduced down? | :55:59. | :56:02. | |
You bring down all that just to what is two tablespoons? | :56:03. | :56:07. | |
On that recipe we have got 500 grams of juice | :56:08. | :56:10. | |
So the fish is basically steaming for what? | :56:11. | :56:24. | |
The fish has been steaming for five minutes. | :56:25. | :56:26. | |
You've got last time you were on, you got me making a pork pie | :56:27. | :56:38. | |
which took two-and-a-half hours and then put it in a food processor! | :56:39. | :56:42. | |
So where do you get your inspiration from. | :56:43. | :56:46. | |
Hibiscus has been running for 13 or 14 years? | :56:47. | :56:48. | |
Where do you get your inspiration from? | :56:49. | :57:06. | |
By travelling you get a lot of different flavours. | :57:07. | :57:11. | |
A lot of different ideas and it's just so eye opening. | :57:12. | :57:14. | |
It makes you see food in a different way. | :57:15. | :57:16. | |
You obviously travelled to Yorkshire because you've got batter on here. | :57:17. | :57:20. | |
The best fish and chips, you must know where they are from? | :57:21. | :57:24. | |
For the cod fish, you put it before in a brine, you said? | :57:25. | :57:42. | |
It's very good this way because it gets to stay very, very firm. | :57:43. | :57:50. | |
It makes it very flaky and very pleasant. | :57:51. | :57:56. | |
It's near where I come from, but it's a cool place. | :57:57. | :58:19. | |
I'll go to San Sebastian, but I'll take you to Witby first. | :58:20. | :58:28. | |
We've got great cod up there, you see. | :58:29. | :58:30. | |
We're making these scraps. You want to drizzle these in. | :58:31. | :58:33. | |
I didn't put any white wine in there, nothing. | :58:34. | :58:35. | |
I'm trying to keep it as pure as possible. | :58:36. | :58:37. | |
I found it in a tapas bar in Barcelona where the guy | :58:38. | :58:45. | |
was cooking seafood and the flavour was just unbelievable | :58:46. | :58:48. | |
because you don't add white wine, nothing. | :58:49. | :58:54. | |
You get the pure flavour of the produce. | :58:55. | :58:56. | |
Right, we've got our little scraps here. | :58:57. | :59:02. | |
Yes, I think so. Let's cook some more. | :59:03. | :59:08. | |
So the fish, you don't have to touch. | :59:09. | :59:10. | |
When we last spoke, you have got a pub as well? | :59:11. | :59:23. | |
One in Wimbledon called the Fox and Grape. | :59:24. | :59:26. | |
We try to base it on what we do at Hisbiscus, fresh produce. | :59:27. | :59:51. | |
It is using produce like this you get the fantastic flavour. | :59:52. | :00:08. | |
You mention Hibiscus, because you've had a bit | :00:09. | :00:10. | |
of a regeneration, your own little chef's table? | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
Yes, that is fantastic, it is very popular. | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
We've got people, a chef cooking, one of | :00:15. | :00:16. | |
my head chefs will cook in front of you, and I will go and see you | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
through the meal, because I can't really put | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
myself on that table, but | :00:22. | :00:23. | |
Because I visited Claude's kitchen, and it is the | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
The extraction's been done, and it is fantastic, my staff love | :00:28. | :00:34. | |
Are you the same sort of thing with this season? | :00:35. | :00:47. | |
I don't really stand for that with mussels. | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
I think they are all year round, really. | :00:52. | :00:52. | |
You can get them all year round, but but you have a time of | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
the year like this time when it is the best. | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
The winter is nice, but in the spring, | :01:00. | :01:00. | |
the year like this time when it is the best. | :01:01. | :01:01. | |
it is the best time to | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
So beside of this you are going to put a bit of the | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
Just enough to give a bit of freshness, and keep the flavour | :01:11. | :01:20. | |
And there is no other flavour in there whatsoever? | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
Has it got an interior, as well, the lime, | :01:24. | :01:25. | |
or do you just use the | :01:26. | :01:26. | |
So, the scraps have gone in with the purple sprouting broccoli. | :01:27. | :01:39. | |
And all you have done is just saute that off, you | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
This is not part of your recipe, but seeing as Elaine is | :01:44. | :01:53. | |
When you come down south, which is... | :01:54. | :02:03. | |
You get south of a place called Watford, they start | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
to charge you 5 euros for a bag of scraps. | :02:06. | :02:07. | |
That is a dish we have an the lunch menu. | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
We could actually serve the bag of scraps! | :02:13. | :02:21. | |
But your food is a mix and match of all | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
different things, classic French techniques but with very modern. | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
That is a flavour I got from Singapore. | :02:33. | :02:40. | |
I got people asking for it, when are you going to put it | :02:41. | :02:47. | |
This is the whole idea of your cooking, quite unusual | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
But it is still food, there is no gimmick with it. | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
You like playing with flavour, that is what I do. | :02:57. | :02:58. | |
But at the end, you have to stay food, you have to be | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
So many people are trying to do things just for the | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
sake of it, and forget food is the base for | :03:08. | :03:09. | |
everything, flavour and | :03:10. | :03:10. | |
We have decided you could open a place where you | :03:11. | :03:24. | |
Cornish cod and mussels with carrot and orange. | :03:25. | :03:39. | |
Simple, two star Michelin, fantastic. | :03:40. | :03:48. | |
And I know that this taste spectacular, because we | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
You can dive into it a second time, Elaine. | :03:51. | :03:59. | |
Even if the fish is very fresh, cod has always got a bit | :04:00. | :04:10. | |
of water on it, and you can't get that flakiness. | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
By doing this, you get the proper texture, and I think | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
this is one of the best fish you can get, it is like... | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
I am from the valleys, I don't get to eat this! | :04:20. | :04:29. | |
He certainly kept James happy there by serving battered scraps. | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
Now it's time for the omelette challenge, and | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
this week it is Monica Galetti versus Shaun Rankin. | :04:35. | :04:36. | |
Paul Rankin has been at the centre of our omelette now, and he is very | :04:37. | :04:56. | |
smug. Monica, who would you like to beat? The guy right down at the | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
bottom, I would like to beat him. Bryn Williams! Let's put the clock | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
on the screen. Are you ready? Got to do it properly. My pan is | :05:05. | :05:49. | |
sticking! This one wasn't sticking. Got to do it properly. What have you | :05:50. | :05:58. | |
got now? Cheese?! Just for good measure. We are going to run out of | :05:59. | :06:07. | |
music in a minute! Look at this pan. Please invest in a decent panel. Do | :06:08. | :06:16. | |
I get to taste this? Look at that. Don't worry, there won't be anybody | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
from MasterChef watching! Chef, what is this? Monica through shell at me! | :06:23. | :06:29. | |
You switched pans on me! This is... Monica... I have to beat the guy at | :06:30. | :06:50. | |
the bottom. Do you think you beat Bryn Williams? No, didn't happen. | :06:51. | :07:01. | |
You did it in 58.02 seconds, which puts you there, but because it is a | :07:02. | :07:12. | |
two egg omelette. What do you mean? It puts you in good company! | :07:13. | :07:23. | |
If anybody wants to know what goes on in my ear, it is generally this | :07:24. | :07:32. | |
sound from the gallery. CLUCKING. My pan was too hot. I | :07:33. | :07:44. | |
blame Michaela. You did beat him. You did it in 24.28 seconds, which | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
puts you right there, and I will forgive you for the shell. Thank | :07:51. | :07:52. | |
you. Up next is award-winning food writer | :07:53. | :08:01. | |
Diana Henry with a great chicken dish that makes use of Middle | :08:02. | :08:03. | |
Eastern flavours. Great to have you on the show. You | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
are going to cook chicken thighs for us first of all? Yes, succulents, | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
cooked so it doesn't get dry. And this is a Turkish influence? This | :08:16. | :08:22. | |
has been marinated, I will show you how to do it in a minute. . Do they | :08:23. | :08:30. | |
have the bones in? No, the bones are out. And you like a little colour on | :08:31. | :08:44. | |
this. Wide EU take the skin off? I like the crusted issue get on the | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
flesh of the skin is not there. The spices adhere to the skin, and under | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
the skin there isn't enough, but what I do with these first ones is | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
marinate them. What got you into writing in the first place? I just | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
always really loved food. I was just a massive cook when I was about six | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
years old, I was a TV producer for years, actually. And you were with | :09:10. | :09:20. | |
Kate? Yes, we worked on GMTV together. I made her cry. She was | :09:21. | :09:28. | |
really horrible! I did, I can't remember what it was about, but it | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
was a tearful day. We had a lot of those, if I remember rightly. I will | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
make this with flatbread, but you are going to do a salsa? You can | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
leave that to marinade for about. That is cumin, cayenne and cinnamon. | :09:47. | :09:59. | |
You can leave that for half an hour, up to as much as four hours. The | :10:00. | :10:06. | |
chicken goes in the oven. And I will make some relish now. What is that, | :10:07. | :10:26. | |
is it vodka or something? It is raki! We are being Turkish! So I am | :10:27. | :10:34. | |
doing the flatbread. I like that you are making him run. I would just buy | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
the flatbread if I was doing it at home. I wouldn't be making them | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
midweek, this is a Wednesday night kind of dish. Wednesday? I think | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
about cooked books, and I think, what I do that on a Wednesday night? | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
And if I wouldn't, it doesn't go in the book, because people need to be | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
empowered and find things that they can cook, and I don't think cooking | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
is difficult at all. This salsa going on top, that would be great | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
with many things, wouldn't it? It is good with mackerel as well. It would | :11:04. | :11:11. | |
be good on a Tuesday night, as well! I have lives going in as well, green | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
olives, and this, I don't know whether it is Turkish or not, I made | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
this up. Someone came back from Turkey and said they had a fantastic | :11:21. | :11:26. | |
salsa with lamb, and it was green olives and preserved lemons and | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
spices, but my kids are not massive reserve lemons fans, so I made it | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
slightly different. So this book is all about chicken? Yes, all about | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
chicken. And it is your eighth book? It is my ninth. And every recipe is | :11:41. | :11:48. | |
chicken? It is not difficult, when you start to think about what people | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
call call over the world using chicken, it is endless, so there is | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
Spanish stuff on Vietnamese stuff and stuff from... So how do you do | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
the perfect roast chicken? James and I disagree on this. If you want it | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
crispy, crispy skinned and perfectly moist, I try to do it lots of | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
different ways, I did that thing of turning it on its side, cooking it | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
upside down, and after a year of testing when I was doing the book, | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
the best method I came up with is to put butter all over it, plenty of | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
sea salt on top of the skin, and then you put it in a dish that is | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
not too big for it. If you put it in a large roasting tin, the juices run | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
off and burn. It shouldn't go in from the fridge, the skin should be | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
quite dry, never wet, and I put it in with legs towards the back of the | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
oven, 210, 50 minutes, and I don't touch it, don't move it, don't baste | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
it, but you have to know your oven. But you have to know your oven. You | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
are a 100 metres deg person? I go to my mother's house! I do do roast | :13:01. | :13:09. | |
chicken, but the best is my mum's. Is that your favourite chicken dish? | :13:10. | :13:16. | |
My mum's, yes, and her roast potatoes are legendary. Chicken with | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
Vietnamese flavours are fantastic. Butter and salt and pepper. That is | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
good, too. So we have got the cucumber, the salad, and what else | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
are we doing, what else goes in the salsa? You can do those, leave in | :13:30. | :13:37. | |
some chillies, some seeds so that it is a little bit hot but not | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
completely. The other thing that goes in here is white balsamic, just | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
because it is slightly sweet and it leaves it a much nicer colour. Olive | :13:49. | :13:55. | |
oil. You won't need any salt because of the olives. But you might need a | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
little bit of lemon, excuse me. Lemon is amazing in cooking the way | :13:59. | :14:10. | |
it brings dishes together. I call it the great connector. Sometimes even | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
when you do something sweet and you think it doesn't need it, you might | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
be making a cream that has got card on in it and rose water, and a | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
little bit of lemon just brings it together. Brilliant always for | :14:22. | :14:28. | |
soups, if you taste it towards the end and it isn't quite coming | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
together, squeeze a lemon. You must be a free range organic chicken | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
buyer, are you? I wasn't always. I can afford now to buy free range, | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
not always organic at all, and if I really splashing out, I go to my | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
local butcher in Crouch end, and they do local chickens which I love, | :14:49. | :14:56. | |
they are delicious. That chilli might be a bit hot. And you are | :14:57. | :15:06. | |
putting in a little clarified butter, ghee, over the top. So what | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
inspires you to write all these columns, weekly columns and anything | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
else, what do you look for? I always think of ideas. Before I started | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
writing about food, I used to keep a notebook in my handbag, and I was | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
always adding dishes that I wanted to make. Sometimes even now when I | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
am going to sleep at night, I think, this would be good or that would be | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
good. So a love of food, really, a love of flavours. I like strong | :15:34. | :15:35. | |
flavours and contrast. I think, you will see | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
that in this dish. This kind of warm chicken flesh | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
and the coolness of yoghurt. And you've got, a contrast | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
in temperature and a contrast But those, the spices | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
make a lovey crust too. You could cook it all the way | :15:48. | :16:14. | |
through on the hob. Put one in top and the other on top | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
and then I'll put the salsa. And then the flatbread you just want | :16:18. | :16:24. | |
around the side with the salad? This is Turkish spice, griddled | :16:25. | :16:38. | |
chicken with hot green relish. And what looks like | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
a glass of vodka! Now, this, I know, tastes | :16:45. | :16:46. | |
fantastic and again, more or less in real-time, | :16:47. | :16:56. | |
apart from the marinade. That's just flour, a bit of salt, | :16:57. | :16:58. | |
a touch of cold water, that's kind of it, really, | :16:59. | :17:17. | |
dry pan to start off and brush with the melted butter | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
to go with it. Diana, I saw your book with my | :17:24. | :17:31. | |
agent, she says rather grandly, and she said this is the most | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
amazing book that's just come out and everybody wishes | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
that they'd written it. Thank you. | :17:39. | :17:40. | |
That's nice. So great little home-made | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
flatbreads there. Now, when Julia Bradbury came | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
to the studio to face her food when or food hell, she was striving | :17:53. | :18:02. | |
for sea bass, but would she have It is time to find out | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
if Julia will be facing food Everybody here has | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
made their minds up. Julia, food heaven, | :18:11. | :18:13. | |
I think it would be a lot of people's food heaven, | :18:14. | :18:15. | |
a beautiful piece of sea bass over here to go with some | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
fantastic artichokes, we've got asparagus, | :18:19. | :18:19. | |
new seasoning asparagus as well. Alternatively the flip-side to this, | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
food hell, crab, dark crab meat, This could be a great | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
souffle with a bisk sauce using the shells from the crab | :18:27. | :18:41. | |
and radish and mustard salad. How | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
do you think these lot have decided? Hopefully as chefs they have gone | :18:45. | :18:46. | |
for the better ingredients Beautiful white crab | :18:47. | :18:48. | |
meat, delicious. Lucy is more interested | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
in the souffle element of this. Next, I'm going to get first off, | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
I'm going to talk about artichokes. Guys, if you can do | :18:57. | :19:04. | |
the rest of the artichokes, What we're going to do quickly | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
is peel these like that and cut them Trim them through, trim | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
them through, trim them That's how to cook | :19:16. | :19:21. | |
the baby artichokes. We have got a nice | :19:22. | :19:34. | |
piece of sea bass. Some salt and simply, | :19:35. | :19:41. | |
simply cook this. This is how to cook | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
fish on the barbecue. A lot of the time it can | :19:46. | :19:47. | |
break up and be ruined. You should always keep | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
the skin on, shouldn't you? There is certain things I cook | :19:51. | :19:52. | |
and take it off afterwards. The only thing you've got to watch | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
with fish is the fishmonger scaled it for you because sea bass scales | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
are unpleasant actually. In five minutes, that's | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
going to be done. Meanwhile, we have got, | :20:05. | :20:24. | |
that goes straight in there, We'll do a puree with this and we're | :20:25. | :20:27. | |
going to char grill it together with our asparagus which they're | :20:28. | :20:51. | |
prepping up now. The fish wants to go | :20:52. | :20:53. | |
in five or six minutes. So you can actually cook that | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
on the barbecue in the tinfoil, but do it twice as thick and it | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
will cook itself. So the boys are prepping | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
the asparagus here. Yeah, it is good to see | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
them working hard! You can't beat it. | :21:09. | :21:10. | |
It is delicious. Very, very quick and | :21:11. | :21:12. | |
simple sauce this now. My mum will be watching, sea bass | :21:13. | :21:19. | |
and asparagus and artichokes. You have to watch yourself, | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
put a lid on because it will spit. I will be eating this next | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
week as well because mum That goes in there and we'll put | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
a little bit of white wine in there. Just a touch and then some stock | :21:32. | :21:40. | |
and some double cream. Bring it to the boil and that's more | :21:41. | :21:42. | |
or less our sauce done for that one? Would you like to | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
cook or put them in? These will actually cook down | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
and steam at the same Once they're cut into quarters, | :21:50. | :21:57. | |
if you're going to do them whole, Julian, if you can do the basil | :21:58. | :22:04. | |
that would be great. Once our sauce is done, we'll pass | :22:05. | :22:20. | |
it through a sieve like that. And back on the heat and pop that | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
back in there to reduce it down. Do you ever put the asparagus just | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
directly on the char grill? You can, but it takes | :22:28. | :22:35. | |
a little bit longer. The Italians do that | :22:36. | :22:37. | |
quite often, don't they? I like the pure taste and I find | :22:38. | :22:39. | |
that the grill just adds... It gives you a great | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
concentration of flavour. These need to come off | :22:46. | :22:54. | |
and go on our char grill. Take the rest of our | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
artichokes over here. Just a touch of the liquor and you | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
can blitz that with some cream. I've got a bit of | :23:04. | :23:13. | |
that sauce as well. So the idea is we just bring it | :23:14. | :23:15. | |
all together nice and simple. This is a little bit of fish sauce | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
going in there as well. If you can pop that in a little bowl | :23:19. | :23:33. | |
and we'll give that a little blitz so you can foam that up and season | :23:34. | :23:58. | |
it with salt and pepper. The idea is we'll just | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
grab our asparagus. You're not allowed | :24:02. | :24:15. | |
to have fun there. I was going to decorate your back | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
for being so mean to me today. I could always take that omelette | :24:20. | :24:27. | |
off the board next week. We can grab our fish out | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
of the oven, please, Jason, Lucy, you've got to admit | :24:34. | :24:52. | |
that it's looking good. When you make this foamy | :24:53. | :25:01. | |
thing, chefs sometimes I can tell the way she tucks into | :25:02. | :25:22. | |
that that she does like her food! I don't think you sre | :25:23. | :25:52. | |
going to get any, guys. But there is a souffle | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
in the oven for you. That looked tasty, and if you don't | :25:59. | :26:01. | |
want to attempt the fancy foam, Well, I'm afraid that's all we've | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
got time for an today's show. I hope you've enjoyed | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
taking a look back at some of the fantastic recipes | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
from the Saturday Kitchen archives. | :26:14. | :26:16. |
