Stand by for a mouth-watering menu of magnificent food. | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
I'm joined by two top chefs of course. | :00:19. | :00:36. | |
First the Spaniard behind a whole host of best-selling books | :00:37. | :00:45. | |
restaurant, Dinner. of Heston Blumenthal's two Michelin | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
Making a long overdue return to Saturday Kitchen, | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
So Jose, what are you making for us today? | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
Something from the Basque region? Yes, we are doing Merluza en salsa | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
verde. Translate that? What was that? I | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
thought your Spanish was getting better! It is a hake with a light | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
sauce with an asparagus base and clams, from the Basque country. I'm | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
doing brill with ginger and chilli. It is an ancient tribal broth. | :01:22. | :01:29. | |
Apparently cooked from 723. 723 BC? Yes. | :01:30. | :01:37. | |
Where is this from From Thailand, from recent travels. | :01:38. | :01:39. | |
So two great recipes to look forward to and there's more fantastic food | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
Today, we have dishes from Rick Stein, Tony Singh, | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
the Hairy Bikers and Brian Turner with Janet Street Porter. | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
With a man who has been around since 723! | :01:50. | :01:58. | |
as she could actually make me say anything she wanted to herself. | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
Welcome to Saturday Kitchen, Nina Conti. | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
Welcome to Saturday Great to have you on the show. | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
I'm a big fan. You are in the middle of a tour at the | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
I'm a big fan. You are in the middle all over the world. | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
I'm a big fan. You are in the middle crazy for you? Yes, crazy. I've been | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
on stage many hours crazy for you? Yes, crazy. I've been | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
already. But it has been fun. I love it. | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
Comedy is fun, you have hit a niche, though? | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
doing it. It take as lot of work? Yes, and a | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
lot of trust. I use the people It take as lot of work? Yes, and a | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
the audience, I put on masks on them, and I take their lead. | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
What is that like? You speak to comedians, lots is scripted. | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
What is that like? You speak to it like walking on to a stage not | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
knowing where it will go? It is thrilling. They surprise me. I fall | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
in love with everybody that I put a mask on, we go on an adventure | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
together. I don't know where it will go. But maybe I'm lazy, the idea of | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
sitting down to writing jokes, makes me depressed, so this avoids me | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
Now, of course, at the end of TODAY'S programme I'll cook | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
either food heaven or food hell for Nina. | :03:21. | :03:22. | |
It's up to the guests in the studio and a few of our viewers to decide | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
I really like meat that has crispy skin, that is like duck. | :03:27. | :03:37. | |
And the dreaded food hell? It would be a scallop. I remember, I think I | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
have only had one in my life, the consistency was so wrong, it just | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
felt like it was not meant to be eaten. | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
For food heaven I've going to serve the duck with another of Nina's | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
I'll pan roast a duck breast then baste in hot fat until the skin | :03:57. | :04:06. | |
It's served with cubes of miso glazed aubergine and finished | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
with edamame beans, sesame seeds and some blanched curly kale. | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
Or Nina could be having food hell, scallops and I'm looking to a French | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
classic for this and serving them with Duchess potatoes. | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
The scallops are seared, put back in their shells with diced | :04:18. | :04:19. | |
vegetables then covered in a creamy herb sauce. | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
They're topped with mashed potato, parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
and served with a simple baby gem salad on the side. | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
But you'll have to wait until the end of the show to find | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
If YOU'D like the chance to ask either of our chefs a question today | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
And if I do get to speak to you I'll be asking if you want Nina to face | :04:37. | :04:46. | |
You can also send us your questions through social media | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
Right, cooking first this morning is, | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
In eight minutes you will get Spanish food. | :04:54. | :05:04. | |
Eight minutes?! Yes. Now, tell us the name of the dish? | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
It is Merluza en salsa verde. But it is hake with peas and clams. | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
We are going to make the lovely sauce with flour and the local wine, | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
some stock and we are finishing with peas. And at the start of the | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
season, there is white asparagus and clams. | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
OK. So, garlic on the go first? That is | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
the way. Now this particular region it is the | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
Basque region. You have a book out about the Basque region? Yes, the | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
book is called Basque. Of course! You thought long and hard about that | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
title! Not really. The book is the same. It is about | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
the Basque Nationalist Party country. It is about lovely recipes. | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
Some from the local area, some from the interpretation of my recipes | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
with the ingredients from there. It is an amazing part of the world | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
that. It is northern Spain. There is also a lot of French inflewence? A | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
lot. A lot. It is an impressive place. You get | :06:10. | :06:17. | |
there the best seafood you can imagine, the best cheeses. I met an | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
amazing guy, producer. He is a guy with 25 years making the best goat's | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
cheese ever. Goat's cheese? Yes. | :06:28. | :06:35. | |
It is all about that. The book is about simplicity, great ingredients | :06:36. | :06:37. | |
and that's everything and cooked simply. | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
Now, that is that. You have to fry well the flour. | :06:42. | :06:53. | |
It is making a little roux? Exactly. This is the wine. What is special | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
about this one? This is the local wine. | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
It is lovely and crisps. It will go perfectly with this ditch. | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
So -- it will go perfectly with this dish. | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
So this is fish stock? Yes, this is fish stock. | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
You want me to prepare these? Yes, two or three and put them in boiling | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
water. This is the white asparagus. | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
It is in season. It is a fantastic ingredient. | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
It is straight in the pan with the fish. | :07:31. | :07:43. | |
You can always buy fresh asparagus? I love it but I grew up with the | :07:44. | :07:52. | |
tinned. You grew up with the tinned? I love | :07:53. | :08:04. | |
it! I know. Come on, have some Jamon. But keep this quiet. Somebody | :08:05. | :08:12. | |
told me you are working on something new? We are working on something, in | :08:13. | :08:25. | |
a pub. Can you talk about it? Maybe. Explain where this ham is coming | :08:26. | :08:33. | |
from? It is from and Lukea. It is cured for four years. Happy! Yummy. | :08:34. | :08:42. | |
You cannot carve it on a machine? No. | :08:43. | :08:50. | |
Now, did you salt the hake? I put some in there. | :08:51. | :09:00. | |
Now, this is interesting. This is from the hake. In the Basque | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
country they normally fry it or do it in pil-pil. They fry it with | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
garlic, chilli, and fry this very lightly. A lot of people call it | :09:15. | :09:24. | |
fish tongue but it is not? I buy the fish tongue but this is helping with | :09:25. | :09:33. | |
the emulsion. Did he say fish tongue. | :09:34. | :09:40. | |
No, it is not the fish tongue. It is this part, the throat. | :09:41. | :09:47. | |
But, it is not quite that, either, it is just between there and the | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
chin. Nice. This recipe is going to be in the restaurant. | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
The restaurants you have, they are going from strength toe strength. | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
You cannot get a table. Yes, you can! They are so busy but | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
it is fantastic. Yes, the restaurant in Liverpool | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
Street is doing great. I am pleased. Still the same emphasis with the | :10:14. | :10:14. | |
tapas. Yes. | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
It is great, when one runs out, you can make up another? It is all about | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
the simplicity. About buying the best ingredients. The best peas, the | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
best asparagus. But that is the essence of Spanish | :10:30. | :10:38. | |
cooking anyway, simple ingredients? Yes it is the only way. Why | :10:39. | :10:49. | |
complicate it. It the the? It is the same thing. | :10:50. | :10:52. | |

I'm thinking, you were brought up on these as a kid. | :11:02. | :11:09. | |
I had a zoom, do you know what it is? No. | :11:10. | :11:19. | |
You didn't understand me there? No. . But I think your Spanish is | :11:20. | :11:26. | |
getting better, you can say jamon now. | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
Yes. You are doing the last programme | :11:32. | :11:32. | |
with me now. You are doing the last programme | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
Well, there is one more next week. Right, this is it. | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
We are nearly ready now. You want them straight in there? | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
Lovely. Some more parsley. | :11:47. | :11:58. | |
Come on, what else do we do? Come on. | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
Come on, what else do we do? Come We just wait and eat ham. | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
I know. But why not? Life is too complicated. People get crazy | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
recipes. Do simple | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
recipes. Yes, these crazy people with recipes | :12:16. | :12:17. | |
recipes. from 723 BC and all of that sort of | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
stuff! Now, tell us about the Supper Club in Spain? This is fantastic? It | :12:24. | :12:36. | |
is Sofia's Gastronica. It is for those people who cook for themselves | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
in a secret member club. So, it is like a cooking school? | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
They are there for cooking and having a good time. It is like a | :12:49. | :12:55. | |
social club but under ground. The women were not allowed to go | :12:56. | :12:56. | |
there! Right, almost ready. a spoon. | :12:57. | :13:07. | |
Too big. OK. We are ready. | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
Can I taste a bit more of this jamon? It is all for you. | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
I love this one. Can you imagine to be cooking with those guys in | :13:22. | :13:36. | |
Gastronomicas. No but I remember Bernie Inns. | :13:37. | :13:38. | |
Gastronomicas. You are being naughty today. I don't | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
remember You are being naughty today. I don't | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
You will have to Google a lot of things! So, that is the hake, the | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
asparagus, the peas, the broth and things! So, that is the hake, the | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
the tongue or whatever you want to call it. Recipes from the Basque | :13:56. | :14:02. | |
seafood book. That is out this week. A bit more of that. | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
Lovely. Then bread on the side? Yes, on the | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
chopping board. It will look nice. Happy with that? Give us the name of | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
this. It is Merluza en salsa verde. It is hake with peas and clams. | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
Simple but brilliant. Thank you. | :14:20. | :14:27. | |
Do you want to take that one? Yes, please. | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
I will take this and more of the jamon. | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
Right, you get to dive into this one. Your first dish. Amazing. | :14:39. | :14:49. | |
Shall I just eat it now on telly and say yum! What a simple sauce. | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
It is so simple. But a very well little amount of | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
flour on that? Yes. . That is delicious. | :15:01. | :15:03. | |
Right, let's get some wine to go with this. | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
We sent our wine expert, Susy Atkins to Somerset this week. | :15:07. | :15:08. | |
So what did she choose to go with Jose's handsome hake? | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
I've come to the historic town of Taunton to choose the wine for | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
today's dishes so let's head into town and take a look around. | :15:19. | :15:40. | |
Jose Canas the first time I saw your wonderful | :15:41. | :15:43. | |
Jose Canas the first time I saw your pick a white from your home country. | :15:44. | :15:51. | |
The deco is a commonly seen great and an example like this would be a | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
fresh in Ghana but I've gone for something more unusual, the Xarello | :15:55. | :16:04. | |
Penedes 2014. Xarello is usually seen in the bed for that classic | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
sparkling Spanish wine, Carver, but here is an example of it being used | :16:09. | :16:17. | |
to make a still white wine. -- cava. There a green, herbaceous tint to | :16:18. | :16:19. | |
the wine and I love it with the parsley and the white asparagus. | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
Make no mistake, this is very dry and that crisp, racy acidity is | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
perfect for my fish. Then on the finish, there is a hint of aniseed | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
and phenol, creeping in a bit like a light vermouth. I love that with the | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
wonderful is that killers of the clams. Jose, there has never been a | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
more exciting time to explore the world of new Spanish white wines, so | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
here is my latest discovery to match with your wonderful dish. Cheers. | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
This is amazing. And it goes extremely well. Lots of flavours in | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
there but what do you reckon? The wine is very nice as well! | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
Delicious. Great combination. Very good, gelatinous and all about the | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
ingredients, very nice. I'm very happy! Not particularly articulately | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
about food, don't have all of these words for it. Have some more of | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
this. What are you making? Steamed brill and a broth I learned in | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
Thailand with artichokes, C beat and Chile. | :17:28. | :17:29. | |

Right, let's catch up with Rick Stein as he makes his way | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
He's in Croatia today and he's starting off with a look | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
In the scheme of things, I have not had much Croatian wine in my time. | :17:44. | :18:02. | |
But from what I have tasted, I like it. It is well made, pricey, | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
virtually unpronounceable, strong, like so many wines these days, but | :18:09. | :18:16. | |
lovely. The most famous of the Reds is dingatch, and the vines that make | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
the grapes I find fascinating. They are like Paul, tortured creatures, | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
like something from Dante's Inferno, fighting for a toehold in the stony | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
soil, to stop them slipping off and into the sea. | :18:31. | :18:40. | |
I've got no head for heights so just standing here is bad enough but the | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
thought of having to go down that incredibly steep slope to ten these | :18:44. | :18:50. | |
vines is terrible. I don't know how they do it. But the fact is, it | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
produces this absolutely fabulous white, dingatch, and they say it is | :18:56. | :19:02. | |
because of the stunted nature of the vines, they get a very low yield | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
from each of them and presumably the roots have to work so hard, not only | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
to get into the soil but to stay there. I imagine the wind that blows | :19:10. | :19:18. | |
up the slope is huge. We, I mean, me and the crew stopped for lunch on | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
our travels virtually every day. We just turned up unannounced on the | :19:23. | :19:24. | |
off chance that there will be room for us. Sometimes, very rarely, the | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
food is utterly brilliant. Like this. We're not supposed to be | :19:31. | :19:37. | |
coming but we stopped for lunch on the way to the location and you have | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
got black lips now and you look strangely alluring. Tell me honestly | :19:42. | :19:48. | |
what you think of this. It is quite simply the best black risotto I have | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
ever eaten. It is so black. It is sensational. I think what I am | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
starting to think about Croatia and the seafood cooking in Croatia is | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
that it is always done simply and absolutely at the moment. This one | :20:04. | :20:14. | |
was made seconds ago. Your lips are very black! All right, all right! At | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
least you won't see how much wine on drinking. At 16.2% you realise? I | :20:20. | :20:28. | |
know! Are we working this afternoon? Yes. You know back at home they | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
would not call this wine, it would be fortified, it is so strong. Cut | :20:35. | :20:43. | |
there! No more driving for me. 16.2%! You have got to be joking! | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
What is happening to wine? Could I possibly match how good that couple | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
fish risotto was? Well, I'm going to give it a try in my lovely kitchen. | :20:53. | :21:00. | |
This is cuttlefish risotto and it is very black. I'm surprised that | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
cuttlefish is not more popular because it has got the most | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
wonderful flavour. I guess it is because of the ink. If you buy whole | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
cuttlefish, it is very difficult to avoid puncturing the ink sac and | :21:16. | :21:23. | |
then you get it over everything and you can't get it out of your hair or | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
off your hands or wherever it ends up. But fortunately, this one, they | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
have taken the ink sac out before delivering it to me. I'm very happy | :21:31. | :21:32. | |
about that. I does love the smell of caramelised | :21:33. | :21:48. | |
sugars in cuttlefish, as it cooks over a high heat. It is just | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
delicious. Now, some salt, just enough to make the salt police's | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
eyebrows rise, and then chopped sure lots, about two, a couple of cloves | :22:03. | :22:05. | |
of garlic and then risotto rice, in this case, arborio, probably the | :22:06. | :22:13. | |
most popular. Now, stirred that around, making sure that each grain | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
is coated and then pepper, as much as you like, and white wine. I'm | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
using Pineau De Re Joe, crisp and unknown. And now, stock, a good fish | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
stock, which I made earlier this morning. -- I am using pinot grigio. | :22:30. | :22:34. | |
The secret with risotto is keep on adding the stock and letting it | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
cooked down and then adding more and all the time, you need to be staring | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
because what you are doing is making the outside of the rise break up | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
into the stock and it gives you a lovely creaminess. I think that is | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
probably about five minutes more cooking time. Now the bit I really | :22:50. | :22:58. | |
enjoy. The cuttlefish ink! I should not bother to try to get coddle Bush | :22:59. | :23:01. | |
ink out of the cuttlefish because it would be all over the place. -- | :23:02. | :23:11. | |
cuttlefish ink. Now, a very important... See what I mean? Are | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
very important observation I have made about black ink risotto. Is | :23:15. | :23:21. | |
that wherever it says two sachets, make it for. -- macro four. If it is | :23:22. | :23:30. | |
just two it will be grey risotto. There's not a lot of flavour in the | :23:31. | :23:31. | |
ink and it's not going There's not a lot of flavour in the | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
Parrington if you double the amount. So, four in. I knew that was going | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
to happen! Look at this. I know tackle oysters, spider crabs, | :23:42. | :23:44. | |
winkles second! But they go pale at the | :23:45. | :23:56. | |
sight of second! But they go pale at the | :23:57. | :23:56. | |
the colour. Get over second! But they go pale at the | :23:57. | :24:09. | |
colour. I'm just second! But they go pale at the | :24:10. | :24:10. | |
looked like a lagoon in Venice, second! But they go pale at the | :24:11. | :24:25. | |
a lovely sheen. Now I'm going to do a highly controversial thing. But I | :24:26. | :24:28. | |
love Parmesan, a highly controversial thing. But I | :24:29. | :24:35. | |
risotto but just in this one. I'm sure the Italians will say, "Never, | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
never!" But this was Croatia sure the Italians will say, "Never, | :24:41. | :24:47. | |
sure it had Parmesan in it. That is looking absolutely lovely, blacker | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
than black. So now, just finish off with a bit of parsley. | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
than black. So now, just finish off won't see but it is there. | :24:59. | :25:06. | |
You can get hold of it fairly easily these days too. | :25:07. | :25:39. | |
the other great way you can use it is in your own pasta. | :25:40. | :25:42. | |
I thought I'd show you how to make it and then show you a great sauce | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
This is really simple but firstly, it is all about the pastor. We have | :25:49. | :25:55. | |
got 00 flour which goes into the machine. Two whole eggs and then I'm | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
going to use 38 yolks. You can very be pasta recipe. -- three egg yolks. | :26:03. | :26:09. | |
But it is all about this ingredient. This is cuttlefish ink. You can use | :26:10. | :26:12. | |
the squid ink as well, same kind of thing. It is quite big. It is so | :26:13. | :26:20. | |
crazy. Don't put your finger in. Will explain? Yes but it's used for | :26:21. | :26:25. | |
all manner of things. We talked about bread, you can make it with it | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
and it is a fantastic ingredient to work with. But you can see, it is | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
quite big. I know, when it comes out of a squid in the water... It is | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
dilutive then. But you put this on and it makes this dark. You will see | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
as it starts to thicken up. Are there any other foods that colour or | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
is quitting the only one? I would not have thought, not really like | :26:51. | :26:53. | |
that. He's trying to think through his repertoire now but not really | :26:54. | :27:00. | |
like that. Caviar, I suppose. Yes. That is like gravel. You work with | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
it, moulding it and needing it and then you go through a pasta machine | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
with it. And then you get sheets of it. All we will do is transform this | :27:13. | :27:21. | |
into, like, little linguine, I suppose, by putting it through here. | :27:22. | :27:29. | |
It looks like a squid. This is squid ink pasta. Then we will serve it | :27:30. | :27:32. | |
with the Grabban are ripping us. So first, congratulations on your tour. | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
It's amazing and it's been in the West End as it's gone crazy for you, | :27:37. | :27:42. | |
globally. Globally? I don't know. We had a couple of clips that went | :27:43. | :27:46. | |
viral on Facebook and got 11 million views but I don't know who is | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
watching. Someone, somewhere. One of them was me yesterday. It's amazing | :27:51. | :27:57. | |
what you do. The stuff that you do, it can be stereotyped a lot of the | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
time, the old bloke with... Ventriloquism, yeah. Old bloke with | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
a wooden puppet but you take it to a different level. I'm not the first | :28:07. | :28:10. | |
EU is the masks. They have been around for quite awhile but I guess | :28:11. | :28:13. | |
I'm the first really improvise with them. I did a lot of studying of | :28:14. | :28:19. | |
clowning and improvisation and staff so that is what I'm doing. And the | :28:20. | :28:23. | |
renter oligomers, now, I wonder if I forget to do it when I'm on stage, I | :28:24. | :28:27. | |
get so carried away with what else is going on that I think "Did I | :28:28. | :28:33. | |
remember not to move my lips?" -- the renter liquids. It is something | :28:34. | :28:38. | |
that you always loved but I suppose, acting, because your dad is Tom | :28:39. | :28:44. | |
Conti, and I suppose adding what the thing you would be pushed into | :28:45. | :28:47. | |
naturally but did you rebel against it because he studied philosophy as | :28:48. | :28:51. | |
well? I was trying to think of something original to do and I | :28:52. | :28:53. | |
thought it might help and philosophy has a great sense of humour because | :28:54. | :28:57. | |
it makes everything so objective. You just end up laughing at reality | :28:58. | :29:01. | |
the whole time. I enjoyed that. But acting seemed like a bit of an | :29:02. | :29:06. | |
unoriginal choice with my dad being an actor. I was grateful when I met | :29:07. | :29:12. | |
Ken Campbell and he said, "Do this". Tell us about this guy because even | :29:13. | :29:16. | |
interesting character and an interesting man with lots of unusual | :29:17. | :29:21. | |
aspects. He was subversive and not dangerous at all. He was very | :29:22. | :29:26. | |
talented but he never really appeared in mainstream theatre. One | :29:27. | :29:31. | |
of the plays he turned up at, a 24-hour play... Yes, I did it with | :29:32. | :29:36. | |
him. You could just turn up? Yes, you could just rock up and said, | :29:37. | :29:42. | |
"Give me apart", a very strange way of doing theatre but he gave me a | :29:43. | :29:46. | |
teach yourself ventriloquism kit and I was horrified. He was mysterious | :29:47. | :29:50. | |
but I thought I loathed it but I had not seen it and I don't loathe it | :29:51. | :29:54. | |
and I've looked at it since and I think is great. Isn't there a big | :29:55. | :29:58. | |
thing in America that he said you should go to America and see? Like | :29:59. | :30:10. | |
Comic Com but for... Yes, it is a printer on's content -- convention | :30:11. | :30:14. | |
in Kentucky but it's also the home of a mausoleum where the puppets | :30:15. | :30:27. | |
dead ventral quiz go to rest. -- -- T20. You go to these puppets that | :30:28. | :30:30. | |
have lost their voices, they were once alive and now they are sad and | :30:31. | :30:35. | |
staring. He wanted me to take his puppets there. It is a uniquely | :30:36. | :30:40. | |
bereaved thing. The world's most famous puppet is the monkey. -- your | :30:41. | :30:45. | |
most famous. But one of the things you are known for on your tour which | :30:46. | :30:49. | |
has been huge for you is the fact you are in prompt you, you basically | :30:50. | :30:54. | |
just make it up with the masks. -- in prompting. Normally you pull | :30:55. | :30:57. | |
someone out of the audience but we have got Jose. | :30:58. | :31:07. | |
So, come on out, Jose. For once, I am going to speak proper | :31:08. | :31:18. | |
English? I don't know yet. We will have to put this on and when I see | :31:19. | :31:23. | |
the mouth on you... And while you are doing that... We have the | :31:24. | :31:28. | |
butter, in with the capers, the chilli, the garlic. I cannot believe | :31:29. | :31:36. | |
I am doing this. Let me look at you. How do you want | :31:37. | :31:45. | |
to talk now? I'm still doing your accent. Are you from? I I don't | :31:46. | :31:52. | |
know, maybe Italy. What is going on? I am going to help | :31:53. | :32:00. | |
on the dish. Can I do something? What are you doing? What is your | :32:01. | :32:06. | |
name? Jose. I'm a chef. Yeah, I like to cook. | :32:07. | :32:13. | |
We can see you on there sn. Do you need me to do something with my | :32:14. | :32:19. | |
hands? You can. Can I have a drink? No, I don't think so. So, are you | :32:20. | :32:25. | |
excited about the squid ink? I love it! I love squid. I am a squid. | :32:26. | :32:33. | |
Yes, I want to be a squid and I want to float in the ocean and squirt my | :32:34. | :32:39. | |
ink at the other fishes. Yes? Yeah. I love it James. I love you. I'm | :32:40. | :32:47. | |
going to miss you when you go. Please, make him speak English. No, | :32:48. | :32:54. | |
I am fed up with this racist stuff. You don't like that? I put up with | :32:55. | :33:03. | |
it every show! Enough you, enough. The funny Spanish guy is tired now. | :33:04. | :33:08. | |
I am done with this. I can't wait for him to leave! Where is the new | :33:09. | :33:15. | |
guy? I want the new guy? When is the new guy coming? I can't not wait for | :33:16. | :33:21. | |
this guy to go! There you go. Well, well done. | :33:22. | :33:25. | |
That is brilliant. APPLAUSE. | :33:26. | :33:30. | |
This is the hardest part of the show for me as well. Where were you for | :33:31. | :33:36. | |
the last ten years. My English today was better. Well, I | :33:37. | :33:42. | |
don't know, your Italian, maybe. So, we have the pasta and right at | :33:43. | :33:46. | |
the last-minute, the crab. So white crab meat as well. Lime, fresh lime. | :33:47. | :33:52. | |
Chopped parsley, garlic. Chilli, capers. | :33:53. | :33:55. | |
It is exciting looking. There you have it. There is your | :33:56. | :34:00. | |
dish. Dive into that. I will pass this to the guys, you deserve it | :34:01. | :34:04. | |
after that. You have to recap, the pasta in the | :34:05. | :34:09. | |
pan, a little pasta water. Brown off the butter. Lemon at the last-minute | :34:10. | :34:18. | |
and the pasta water, chillies, garlic, chopped parsley, really, | :34:19. | :34:24. | |
really simple, just fresh pasta and then the crab. | :34:25. | :34:28. | |
I think it is crazy with the squid. Am I obsessing? Mmm! Happy with | :34:29. | :34:35. | |
that? Yes, delicious. There you are. | :34:36. | :34:38. | |
So what will I be making for Nina at the end of the show? | :34:39. | :34:42. | |
I'll pan roast a duck breast then baste in hot fat until the skin | :34:43. | :34:47. | |
It's served with cubes of miso glazed aubergine and finished | :34:48. | :34:51. | |
with edamame beans, sesame seeds and some blanched curly kale. | :34:52. | :34:53. | |
The scallops are seared, put back in their shells with diced | :34:54. | :34:57. | |
vegetables then covered in a creamy herb sauce. | :34:58. | :34:59. | |
They're topped with mashed potato, parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs | :35:00. | :35:01. | |
and served with a simple baby gem salad. | :35:02. | :35:03. | |
Happy with that? That's amazing. in the studio and a few of our | :35:04. | :35:12. | |
Happy with that? That's amazing. Where can people see you? I'm going | :35:13. | :35:20. | |
to Edinburgh and then a big tour from there. | :35:21. | :35:23. | |
Right, it's time for our weekly taste of Britain from Brian Turner | :35:24. | :35:25. | |
They're in Essex, and Brian is off planning a feast of sausages | :35:26. | :35:29. | |
for later which gives Janet time to explore the region's most famous | :35:30. | :35:32. | |
The salt trade has been synonymous with Essex for over 2,000 years. | :35:33. | :36:03. | |
The Doomsday Book lists no fewer than 45 salt pans around the Maldon | :36:04. | :36:10. | |
area. Today, the world-famous, Paddle Old Bailey Salt Company is | :36:11. | :36:15. | |
the only surviving salt factory in the area. Established in the 188 | :36:16. | :36:19. | |
#0s, Steve's family have made salt for more than four generations and | :36:20. | :36:23. | |
still operate from their original factory. | :36:24. | :36:28. | |
So this is your empire, here? This is the River Black Water. This is | :36:29. | :36:30. | |
where it famous salt. | :36:31. | :36:36. | |
What makes Essex produce such brilliant salt? It is a geographical | :36:37. | :36:43. | |
location that is important. Essex has a low rainfall than cared to the | :36:44. | :36:48. | |
rest of the country. We have a beautiful day today, nice sunshine | :36:49. | :36:52. | |
and winds. So it helps with the drying process and the soldity of | :36:53. | :36:57. | |
the Black River Water. These salt marshes were used by the | :36:58. | :37:02. | |
Romans? That's right. 2,000 years ago the Romans started to make salt. | :37:03. | :37:04. | |
Cutting into the clay pits, ago the Romans started to make salt. | :37:05. | :37:09. | |
water flowed in. A natural process of evaporation, wind, sunshine would | :37:10. | :37:13. | |
help to create a brine in the salt pits. | :37:14. | :37:19. | |
The final process of the eabration occurred in clay pots over open | :37:20. | :37:24. | |
fires. So the salters, effectively on the sea wall, would boil up the | :37:25. | :37:32. | |
brine in the clay pots, creating a salt crystal and then smashing the | :37:33. | :37:36. | |
pots to get the salt out. The cap began to supply salt to | :37:37. | :37:44. | |
Harrods in the 19 hundreds, then by the 501950s it was exported | :37:45. | :37:48. | |
worldwide. What is so great about paddlon salt, what sets it apart | :37:49. | :37:51. | |
from the sorred fare salt in the supermarket? Well, the look for a | :37:52. | :37:57. | |
start. It is the pyramid shape. The flake of the crystals that you see. | :37:58. | :38:03. | |
The soft texture when crumbling it between the fingers and the clean | :38:04. | :38:08. | |
fresh taste that does not have bitterness you associate with common | :38:09. | :38:12. | |
salt. I think we should go up to Maldon to look at the salt factory, | :38:13. | :38:16. | |
to see how we produce the Maldon salt. | :38:17. | :38:21. | |
Brilliant. Never mind the roamans, this is how | :38:22. | :38:25. | |
we do it today. Where is the water from? The water | :38:26. | :38:31. | |
is from the River Black Water. It is filtered and pumped into the pan | :38:32. | :38:37. | |
here. Then bring to the boil. We take off the leave, the | :38:38. | :38:41. | |
impurities... Like what I make damson jam. So you skim it off. | :38:42. | :38:46. | |
Then reduce the temperature down and then we see the salt crystals | :38:47. | :38:52. | |
starting to come up on the surface. When that grows, they break with the | :38:53. | :38:55. | |
surface tension, and go to the bottom. So it is like snowing salt | :38:56. | :39:01. | |
flakes. That process takes 24 hours. The next day we are ready to rake in | :39:02. | :39:04. | |
the salt. Which is happening before you. | :39:05. | :39:09. | |
We are putting it into the draining bins. It is left to drain for | :39:10. | :39:19. | |
another 24 hours. So here you see the finished | :39:20. | :39:23. | |
product. We have taken the salt from the Daning bin. It has gone into the | :39:24. | :39:31. | |
drying machine. Excess moisture is erapated away. We are left with the | :39:32. | :39:36. | |
dry product ready to be packed. So you can see it is still warm. | :39:37. | :39:42. | |
Warm. Yes, it is warm and the crystals so big. Look at that. | :39:43. | :39:49. | |
I know. Taste one. It's a beautiful sweet taste. | :39:50. | :39:51. | |
Absolutely. It does taste good. I think I'm on to something! This | :39:52. | :40:11. | |
area is renowned for some of the best pork in the country. So I come | :40:12. | :40:19. | |
to Wick Manor Farm, who recent won an aye ward for Britain's best | :40:20. | :40:22. | |
sausage. There is a good healthy smell here. | :40:23. | :40:29. | |
Yep, that is a pig farm. So this is where the mums have given birth. | :40:30. | :40:34. | |
So it is like a maternity hospital? That's correct. | :40:35. | :40:38. | |
This is state-of-the-art? It is cutting-edge in the way that the | :40:39. | :40:43. | |
pigs in farms and the pig let's are born. So we can make sure that | :40:44. | :40:51. | |
everyone is taken care for, that the pigs are up and breathing and the | :40:52. | :40:58. | |
pig let's alive and warm, so that they have in the optimum position to | :40:59. | :41:04. | |
give birth. The areas here have a creep with a | :41:05. | :41:10. | |
light so the pig let's can keep warm and the mum can lie down. | :41:11. | :41:15. | |
There are 11 pig let's, is that normal? 11 or 12. Once they are four | :41:16. | :41:21. | |
weeks old we wean them for a month. By then, the mum is looking to get | :41:22. | :41:29. | |
away from them. So we move the pig let's away so that they are in a pen | :41:30. | :41:35. | |
in their own. Then it is important for them to have a milk and a cereal | :41:36. | :41:41. | |
diet. So this section is like chocolate gateux. It is strong, rich | :41:42. | :41:44. | |
food. It is going to promote their growth. | :41:45. | :41:50. | |
Then they come here. This is getting tonne for ten week's old. They are | :41:51. | :41:55. | |
on the cereal diet. You can see it well when they are young, it puts on | :41:56. | :42:01. | |
good muscle content. They get to 100 kilos with a lot of muscle and not a | :42:02. | :42:05. | |
lot of fat. That is when we get hold of them. So | :42:06. | :42:11. | |
the proof in the pudding is in the eating, so we better try it. | :42:12. | :42:19. | |
We ebetter try it, yeah. Come on in, Brian, we better try some of the | :42:20. | :42:25. | |
sausages. Baked in the oven, straight from the Aga. There you go, | :42:26. | :42:29. | |
these are the award-winning sausages. | :42:30. | :42:33. | |
Are they the same? We have different ones. We have pork sausage. Natural | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
skins. No added fat. When you cut them open, you notice | :42:39. | :42:44. | |
no fat dribbles out of that They are firm and good texture. Bags | :42:45. | :42:48. | |
of meat in there. There is an old English one. That is | :42:49. | :42:57. | |
more seasoning. Thyme, nutmeg, and seasoning, pepper to give it a | :42:58. | :43:00. | |
Hershey flavour. That more seasoning S. That for | :43:01. | :43:07. | |
Mijas bags of flavour. That is nice. As a chef we judge quality by | :43:08. | :43:10. | |
looking at the plates that come back. That is nearly finished is | :43:11. | :43:15. | |
that sausage, so you can tell that I like that! | :43:16. | :43:18. | |
Still to come this morning on Saturday Kitchen Live. | :43:19. | :43:22. | |
Tony Singh is making an emotional pilgrimage to Delhi in India. | :43:23. | :43:24. | |

So there's no HUEVOS Jose will be able to take it easy, | :43:37. | :43:45. | |
and he will need all his culinary EGGs-pertise if he is going | :43:46. | :43:47. | |
to TA-PASS Theo Randall and claim that centre spot | :43:48. | :43:51. | |
You can see the action, live, a little later on. | :43:52. | :43:55. | |
crispy Chinese style duck with aubergine and kale | :43:56. | :43:59. | |
Or food hell, scallops in white wine with duchess potatoes. | :44:00. | :44:01. | |
You can see what she ends up with at the end of the show. | :44:02. | :44:05. | |
Now let's keep cooking and up next is Ashley Palmer-Watts. | :44:06. | :44:07. | |
We are making a simple broth with artichokes, vegetable base, sea | :44:08. | :44:19. | |
beets, wild garlic and sea kale, a little bit of ginger. | :44:20. | :44:24. | |
You said simple but this recipe dates back from a long time ago? I | :44:25. | :44:29. | |
cooked with this guy who was 67 years old... He said that it had | :44:30. | :44:35. | |
been cooked by his tribe ever since the tribe had been formed. And doing | :44:36. | :44:40. | |
research on the tribe they originated in Mongolia in 723 BC. So | :44:41. | :44:45. | |
this is the broth side of it? Yes. So I want you to chop the parsley | :44:46. | :44:51. | |
finally. Then we are making a lime and a parsley mixture with olive oil | :44:52. | :44:56. | |
and salt. That goes on top of the brill. Then we steam it. | :44:57. | :45:01. | |
I have vegetable stock here. Then I'm putting in some jurors recommend | :45:02. | :45:07. | |
artichokes. These jurors recommend artichokes, | :45:08. | :45:11. | |
these are what they look like, similar to ginger but a different | :45:12. | :45:15. | |
colour. When you peel it, you must look after it. | :45:16. | :45:22. | |
Yes, so put it in some acidic water. A tiny amount of beginner in the | :45:23. | :45:25. | |
broth, and then a little more ginger. | :45:26. | :45:28. | |
So you were there with a group of chefs? Three of us went over on the | :45:29. | :45:33. | |
way back from Australia. We just visited a few projects and | :45:34. | :45:38. | |
that kind of stuff. It was amazing. You have a restaurant in Australia? | :45:39. | :45:43. | |
Yes, we have one in Melbourne. I'm going on Saturday! OK. I'll check it | :45:44. | :45:47. | |
out. Cashly pop in. | :45:48. | :45:56. | |
So we opened there and we still have the one in London and Knightsbridge | :45:57. | :46:02. | |
and Melbourne too. What about the ethos there? Is it different to | :46:03. | :46:08. | |
here? They like the meat fruit there. What do you have to do for | :46:09. | :46:13. | |
the Australian alyet, do you stick to the same? Everything is | :46:14. | :46:16. | |
different. The chicken livers are different. We must adapt the | :46:17. | :46:21. | |
recipes. Food is geographically different. Potatoes, chicken livers, | :46:22. | :46:27. | |
fish. The fish are completely different there. They are more meaty | :46:28. | :46:30. | |
and take more cooking than over here. | :46:31. | :46:34. | |
So, yes, it is certainly interesting. | :46:35. | :46:40. | |
Your recipes, like this one, it is also about history, is it similar to | :46:41. | :46:42. | |
what you are doing there? Yes, Yes, we have the history of the | :46:43. | :46:52. | |
restaurant and then we draw on Australian history as well. A lot of | :46:53. | :46:56. | |
it starts over here first. How they have used that and then adapted it | :46:57. | :47:01. | |
to their ingredients. What are you doing there? Wild garlic, Bonita, | :47:02. | :47:09. | |
and some garlic and ginger. That will be the aromatic, steaming | :47:10. | :47:10. | |
method. And over here, will be the aromatic, steaming | :47:11. | :47:17. | |
parsley and a bit of olive oil and some lime zest and that is it. | :47:18. | :47:21. | |
Exactly, we will seize on that and pop it into the steamer for about | :47:22. | :47:26. | |
four and a half minutes. And your next job, it's amazing, this guy | :47:27. | :47:30. | |
showed me the first type of curry chilli paste that he made and it was | :47:31. | :47:33. | |
literally dried chilies chilli paste that he made and it was | :47:34. | :47:36. | |
shack. This was in Thailand? Yes. chilli paste that he made and it was | :47:37. | :47:43. | |
You just literally, it is garlic, chili and salt. I'm thinking, it is | :47:44. | :47:47. | |
not really, this is a bit thin on the ground with ingredients. He just | :47:48. | :47:52. | |
used water but we are using vegetable stock and slightly | :47:53. | :47:55. | |
westernised ingredients. We are going to finish the broth with these | :47:56. | :48:00. | |
leaves which are amazing, like cavity crystal greens. Where can | :48:01. | :48:05. | |
people get them from? You could get some things like that from the | :48:06. | :48:09. | |
supermarket now. Good food shops and anywhere on the coast, like in | :48:10. | :48:12. | |
Essex, people will be selling this in local shops, I'm sure. What else | :48:13. | :48:19. | |
have we got? White soy sauce and coconut water that will go into the | :48:20. | :48:24. | |
broth at the end. People will not have used white soy sauce so much | :48:25. | :48:27. | |
because they are used to it being dark. It is a different profile to | :48:28. | :48:32. | |
soy sauce. Have a taste. It is rounder, lots of umami, a richness | :48:33. | :48:43. | |
and strength to the broth. Not so salty? Not so strong so you can use | :48:44. | :48:48. | |
more for better flavour. We have coconut water, white soy sauce, a | :48:49. | :48:50. | |
bit of lime juice and then the chilli paste. Getting there. Keep | :48:51. | :48:58. | |
going, a little bit more. Thanks! So the salt in that is just to give it | :48:59. | :49:06. | |
something more... It helps break up the chilies. How hot do you like | :49:07. | :49:12. | |
your Thai food? Quite hot. Eight out of ten? OK. This is quite pungent. | :49:13. | :49:20. | |
You can smell it already. The important thing to do with that use | :49:21. | :49:23. | |
chilies that you know and maybe dry your own so you know roughly how | :49:24. | :49:27. | |
much to put in. If you are using different ones all the time, it can | :49:28. | :49:31. | |
be a bit up in the air. It is making my nose run more than anything! If | :49:32. | :49:37. | |
you want to see this recipe and more on the show on the website, go to | :49:38. | :49:44. | |
the website below. When you started making food, you are looking through | :49:45. | :49:48. | |
old cookbooks so are you still doing a similar sort of thing at Dinner? | :49:49. | :49:53. | |
Yes, we have got inside with historians in England, in Hampton | :49:54. | :49:56. | |
Court Palace are now one in Australia as well, lady from | :49:57. | :50:05. | |
Adelaide. It is fascinating learning how they applied British recipes to | :50:06. | :50:08. | |
the ingredients available and how it socially changed food. What dishes | :50:09. | :50:13. | |
have you got over there that people would recognise? The most | :50:14. | :50:16. | |
interesting thing is that Mrs Beeton used to have recipes for mango | :50:17. | :50:19. | |
chutney but there were no mangoes here. They were traditionally made | :50:20. | :50:24. | |
with apples and over there, they had a section in the newspaper where | :50:25. | :50:28. | |
they would ask for recipe, for example, does anyone have this kind | :50:29. | :50:32. | |
of recipe? Someone would send it in and publish it. This was about 1900. | :50:33. | :50:37. | |
They were asking for recipe that were not Mrs Beeton's mango chutney. | :50:38. | :50:41. | |
They wanted a proper recipe that actually use mangoes. We'd take it | :50:42. | :50:46. | |
for granted that ingredients travel all over the world when in fact, | :50:47. | :50:51. | |
they don't. There is your rocket fuel. That is all you're getting. | :50:52. | :50:56. | |
That is rocket fuel. The kale is going in and I'm going with a view | :50:57. | :50:59. | |
wild garlic leaves as well. Very simple. When you had that | :51:00. | :51:04. | |
originally, it was a few leaves and water. It was taro root, Tamarind | :51:05. | :51:10. | |
leaf, water and then this chilli paste, served with sticky rice on | :51:11. | :51:14. | |
the side and it was... It blew me away. No fish or anything. He would | :51:15. | :51:20. | |
only eat fish a couple of times a week if his wife had caught it. | :51:21. | :51:26. | |
People know you also from the reason you went over there to Australia in | :51:27. | :51:31. | |
the first place. Exactly, Heston has always wanted to refer this be Fat. | :51:32. | :51:36. | |
Kitchen and you don't want to let everyone go. -- wanted to refurbish | :51:37. | :51:41. | |
the kitchen at the fact that so we built a small Dinner and put the Fat | :51:42. | :51:50. | |
Duck inside it for six months and then move them out again. 60 people. | :51:51. | :51:58. | |
Yes, we refurbished the Fat Duck and they are in Bray and in six weeks we | :51:59. | :52:02. | |
opened the second Dinner. You are doing air miles backwards and | :52:03. | :52:06. | |
forwards. I know the playing quite well! Yes, so I think we are going | :52:07. | :52:12. | |
for about that much. It is pretty fiery and right at the last minute | :52:13. | :52:19. | |
as well. This is a whole new area of learning about food for me with this | :52:20. | :52:24. | |
guy from Thailand. I'm just going to take the chili and the ginger out. | :52:25. | :52:28. | |
I'm going to put some lime over there. Have a little taste. So you | :52:29. | :52:35. | |
take the ginger out now? If you cook the ginger with the skin it is quite | :52:36. | :52:39. | |
hot and spicy as well. That is quite pungent! I think that is eight out | :52:40. | :52:46. | |
of ten. You can use anything, cabbage, Chard would be amazing. You | :52:47. | :52:51. | |
can make it all about wedge doubles, to be fair. You don't actually need | :52:52. | :52:54. | |
fish. But you could use anything, chicken... It is super simple. | :52:55. | :53:03. | |
Pretty spicy. And available bit of chili right at the end. That would | :53:04. | :53:08. | |
be amazing. -- a little bit of chili. I will just sprinkle that | :53:09. | :53:18. | |
over. I will put that to one side. Some leaves. Just ripped them into | :53:19. | :53:29. | |
there. And then just the 8.5 now! What is the dish? Steamed brill with | :53:30. | :53:35. | |
an ancient Thai broth with artichokes, CBS and see kale. -- sea | :53:36. | :53:44. | |
beets. You get to take this. It is eight | :53:45. | :53:54. | |
and a half out of ten you reckon? What about ten out of ten. We have | :53:55. | :53:59. | |
more if it's not strong enough for you. That's amazing, perfect. | :54:00. | :54:05. | |
Amazing how much brave you get. Unbelievable, it blew me away and | :54:06. | :54:08. | |
the link to history was the amazing thing. And vegetable stock with a | :54:09. | :54:12. | |
bit of chile paste or the end. That is crazy delicious, amazing. Let's | :54:13. | :54:18. | |
go back to Jordan to see what Suzi has chosen to go with this dish. -- | :54:19. | :54:20. | |
to Taunton. Ashley, your lovely brill with | :54:21. | :54:54. | |
Jerusalem artichokes leads me away from anything over the fruity and | :54:55. | :54:58. | |
toward something more subtle. I liked, dry Italian whites like this | :54:59. | :55:05. | |
soave would be one option but I've gone for something from the South | :55:06. | :55:09. | |
France instead. The wine I have chosen is this one. It is from dock. | :55:10. | :55:19. | |
This wine is from a blend of grapes, famous in the Rhone valley in the | :55:20. | :55:24. | |
south of France. It gives the wine a lovely rich, full text. There's a | :55:25. | :55:30. | |
slightly spiced, gingery note to the centre and a subtle of yellow pad. | :55:31. | :55:37. | |
-- to the scent. A subtle hint of yellow pair. This is the wine has a | :55:38. | :55:41. | |
slightly savoury another the quality which goes very well with the dish, | :55:42. | :55:46. | |
the Jerusalem artichokes and the wonderful wild garlic and there's | :55:47. | :55:49. | |
definitely a hint of ginger on the roof palette which marries up so | :55:50. | :55:52. | |
beautifully with the fresh ginger that permeates the dish and with | :55:53. | :55:57. | |
that spicy touch of chili. But then on the finish, it ends on a fresh | :55:58. | :56:02. | |
note. This is not a heavy or over rich wine and I like the usefulness | :56:03. | :56:06. | |
to go with the lovely whitefish. Ashley, I have gone for the sunny | :56:07. | :56:09. | |
south of France to net the perfect catch for your brilliant real. I | :56:10. | :56:14. | |
hope you enjoy it. Someone is enjoying their food! I'm | :56:15. | :56:20. | |
not stopping. Carry on. And a great wine, lots of choice but this one, | :56:21. | :56:24. | |
particularly French, not something I would go with but great. Amazing, it | :56:25. | :56:28. | |
goes really well with the round, rich broth, the | :56:29. | :56:31. | |
goes really well with the round, spices. It's amazing how they go | :56:32. | :56:35. | |
together. Stunning. And it is so simple. I can't stop eating the soup | :56:36. | :56:39. | |
enough to drink the wine. Now let's head to Helsinki | :56:40. | :56:42. | |
in Finland for more hairy adventures The city is not great for biking | :56:43. | :56:45. | |
but luckily there are plenty of tasty treats to | :56:46. | :56:49. | |
keep the boys happy. Well, how lovely is this? Hello, | :56:50. | :57:11. | |
Helsinki. Plus, I have been told that the chassis are making waves | :57:12. | :57:18. | |
with their new take on Finnish food. Look, the train station! Yes, Grand | :57:19. | :57:20. | |
Central Station, Helsinki. Look, the train station! Yes, Grand | :57:21. | :57:24. | |
you what it Look, the train station! Yes, Grand | :57:25. | :57:25. | |
it? Not what I expected. Look, the train station! Yes, Grand | :57:26. | :57:33. | |
city of cobbles, isn't it? Look, the train station! Yes, Grand | :57:34. | :57:43. | |
also coffee shops. In Look, the train station! Yes, Grand | :57:44. | :57:46. | |
people of Finland are the biggest copy drink is in the world. I've | :57:47. | :57:47. | |
heard this copy drink is in the world. I've | :57:48. | :58:08. | |
know why the Finns are addicted to coffee. It might be the fact that | :58:09. | :58:10. | |
it's pretty cold for most of the year and quite dark. You need | :58:11. | :58:15. | |
something that refreshes you and picks you up. What makes this place | :58:16. | :58:22. | |
different? One of them is the Coffey tonic which is maybe a little bit | :58:23. | :58:27. | |
exotic combination for many people. And then we use these | :58:28. | :58:37. | |
exotic combination for many people. machines -- particular stressor | :58:38. | :58:39. | |
machines. Breakfast is ordered. Can we have two of those? Eggs, creamed | :58:40. | :58:46. | |
using an espresso machine. Genius. Great, thanks. These are good. The | :58:47. | :58:49. | |
first time for me, Great, thanks. These are good. The | :58:50. | :58:55. | |
machine. Coffey and I like that, it is brilliant, very | :58:56. | :59:01. | |
from a Coffey machine. I like that, it is brilliant, very | :59:02. | :59:10. | |
grown-up. Well done, boys, fab. You I like that, it is brilliant, very | :59:11. | :59:16. | |
could do a slimline. Not as bloggers as it | :59:17. | :59:26. | |
could do a slimline. Not as bloggers good if you ask me. Actually, | :59:27. | :59:29. | |
Finnish food may be down-to-earth but it is not stuck in a time warp. | :59:30. | :59:33. | |
Finnish food may be down-to-earth Like the coffee, the | :59:34. | :59:36. | |
Finnish food may be down-to-earth are giving the food is fresh new | :59:37. | :59:38. | |
twist. And they are getting bearing brilliance from the green spaces | :59:39. | :59:43. | |
dotted all over the city. We thought this might be a nation of foragers | :59:44. | :59:47. | |
and it turned that they are right. They're legally entitled to go to | :59:48. | :59:51. | |
the woods to forage. So we have come down to the woods today. Are we in | :59:52. | :59:56. | |
for a big surprise? We certainly are. This is where a cutting edge | :59:57. | :00:00. | |
chef comes for his ingredients. He is trailblazing | :00:01. | :00:05. | |
chef comes for his ingredients. He Finnish cuisine. He is the real | :00:06. | :00:08. | |
deal. He spent eight years working in some of London's best | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
restaurants. But in the end, there's nothing quite like the taste of | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
home. The best ingredients in Finland cooking come from wild | :00:17. | :00:23. | |
nature. Wild fish, game, wild mushrooms, berries or wild plants. | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
And the best thing about Helsinki for me as a chef is that one mile | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
from the centre of Helsinki, you have all this. Paste this. -- taste | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
this. It is grungy and juicy and succulent. A bit like pea shoots. | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
Yes, slightly lemony as well. We have some violets as well. They look | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
beautiful. Yes, but it is the taste and texture together that makes it | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
such an amazing ingredient for me. That is fabulous. It's a bit like | :00:57. | :01:03. | |
the Manila -- vanilla and armoured. It does not take long to get a meal | :01:04. | :01:05. | |
for ten people! are even more adventurous with their | :01:06. | :01:17. | |
food than I thought. In 2011, they invented restaurant | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
day, anyone can set up a pop-up restaurant, anywhere, for a day. | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
That is brilliant. I love it. So we are doing our on pop-up, cook-up | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
with Sammy. Using freshly picked ingredients. The locals are gives us | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
a warm welcome. Welcome to the Hairy Happening today | :01:38. | :01:46. | |
in Finland. Tonight there will be lots of food, bikes and music! Enjoy | :01:47. | :01:56. | |
yourselves! Great, let's make dinner. | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
Finland's food and foraging God, what are we cooking? We are cooking | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
wild fish. For which we have perch. Then peas, and stems, and the wild | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
herb salad. We have the perch fillets with salt, sea salt, pepper, | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
and thymme leaves. A little bit of butter. It goes | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
nutty. What do you think of the Hairy Happening? Yes, it is great | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
much Village lifestyle and close to nature. That is what Helsinki is | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
about. Finland does not deserve the | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
reputation for poor food. You just don't. We have great food. And we | :02:43. | :02:51. | |
have the vinaigrette. With oil, and mustard. Awesome. That is fantastic. | :02:52. | :02:59. | |
Sammy, would you say this is contemporary finish cuisine? Yes. No | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
problems with the presentation. It is the colour, the textures and the | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
flavour. Each plant is adding something. What I have here is the | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
fresh peas and burdenock systems. So this is a peak season now for the | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
burdenock stems. Before the flower comes, the stem is tender. I have | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
peeled it, chopped it and blanched it a main or two with the peas. | :03:25. | :03:32. | |
Similar to white asparagus, artichoke or salsify. Wonderful. | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
So the fish is ready now. Medium. Look at that. | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
It is beautiful. That is fantastic. That's it, pan fried fillets of | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
perch with wild chives, burdenock stems and peace. | :03:50. | :03:58. | |
With a wolf wild herb salad. I have to dive in. | :03:59. | :04:06. | |
-- Burdock. Any good? That is fantastic! You know, Kingy, I think | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
that the Finns are on to something with nature's larder. Foraging is | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
main stream but it is much more than free food. So full of flavour. | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
Perfect. Sophisticated and layered flavours. | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
And the burdock root. This is tomorrow's asparagus! Oh, I'm having | :04:28. | :04:36. | |
There'll be more from the boys on next week's show! | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
Right, it's time to answer a few of your foodie questions. | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
Laura is from cash rough. Are you what Nina could be eating at the end | :04:44. | :04:52. | |
Laura is from cash rough. Are you there, Laura? I am, good morning. | :04:53. | :05:01. | |
How is Scarborough. Always beautiful. | :05:02. | :05:09. | |
What is your question? We have had some meat left over from a dinner we | :05:10. | :05:22. | |
have had. What do you suggest, it is from Christmas. Well, take it, the | :05:23. | :05:32. | |
meat from the bone. Anything yellow will be rancid. Fry it with an egg. | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
Use the bones, clean them well and use them for a stock. You will get | :05:39. | :05:46. | |
the best stock ever. So with the sauteed peas, some of | :05:47. | :05:53. | |
the ham and the fried egg. Heaven. | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
Heaven or hell? Heaven, please. And the tweet? Please, can you tell | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
me what to do with lamb kidneys, other than devilled. I would make a | :06:07. | :06:14. | |
lamb casserole. I would have a barbecue, jacket potatoes wrapped up | :06:15. | :06:25. | |
with garlic and thymme and then the lamb's kidneys, wrapped in olive oil | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
and salt, in tin foil and grill them. | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
Next one? Do you have fancy desserts for Easter? Yes. | :06:38. | :06:50. | |
It is very easy. A piece of bread. A slice of bread, soaked before, boil | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
wine with spice, lemon and oranges, and with the juices soak the bread. | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
Take the juices, the maximum that you can, out. Then fry it. Buttered | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
with flour and egg first. Some sugar and some... So it is Spanish eggy | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
bread? Exactly. You will love it. It sounds good to me. | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
With spices as well. It is very typical in Spain for Easter. | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
There you go. Right, back to the phones, it is | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
Judy from Northumberland. What is the question? I have a | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
couple of large bone-in pork chops. I would like to do something a | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
little different. I wonder if Jose can give me an idea of how to do | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
them with the Spanish flavour. I love that. Marinade them with | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
chilli, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice for about six hours. After | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
that, olive oil mashed potatoes and some grilled peppers. Just grill the | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
chop and some smoked paprika on top and that is it. | :08:02. | :08:10. | |
The peppers are they just red peppers sauteed? Yes. | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
Sounds good for me. What about heaven and hell? Nina has | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
been very entertaining, so I think she deserves food heaven. | :08:22. | :08:31. | |
Next question. I would like chicken livers, I would | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
like to do something but not patty. I think I would probably make a | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
really nice saffron risotto and saute the livers and literally drop | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
them on top with a little bit of meat juice. | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
I was not thinking of that. Fantastic. Would you saute them off | :08:55. | :09:06. | |
with a little bit of sherry? Yes, lemon, garlic, sherry, and saute | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
them and lay them on top. What would you like for Nina, heavy | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
on or hell? Well, I really think that Nina should give alscallops | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
another go but because I like her, heaven. Now, the Omelette Challenge. | :09:22. | :09:30. | |
The usual rules apply, a three-egg omelette as fast as you can. Look at | :09:31. | :09:37. | |
him. Poised and ready like a sprung gazelle. Three, two, one, go! It's | :09:38. | :09:50. | |
the concentration on their faces, you see? Look? Two-starred Michelin | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
chef concentration! Oh, that is quick! You burnt the hairs off your | :09:57. | :10:09. | |
arms there! You singed the hairs, you have. I can smell it. | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
I have an extra layer. Mmm. Well, they are kind of... | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
Right. Jose? Yes. Mmm. Well, they are kind of... | :10:19. | :10:31. | |
Where were you? Here. Mmm. Well, they are kind of... | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
quicker. A lot quicker. A lot, lot quicker. It is only 0.4 of a second | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
quicker. It puts you here. A little further | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
up the board there. Yes! Right, would you | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
up the board there. an omelette? Yes. | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
Thank you very much. You get to take that in your kitchen | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
in Melbourne. Thank you very much. | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
in Melbourne. You did it in 18. 76 seconds. That | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
puts you in the centre of our pan. There you go. | :11:07. | :11:15. | |
It puts you there. Mr Nathan | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
So will Nina get her food heaven, Chinese style crispy | :11:21. | :11:22. | |
Or food hell, scallops in a white wine sauce with duchess potatoes? | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
Our chefs will make their choices whilst we join Tony Singh | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
He's reached the city of Delhi today where he's meeting up | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
This is brilliant! We're in Delhi, baby! The capital of India, | :11:36. | :11:53. | |
population, 22 million. As I enter the outskirts of the city, I can't | :11:54. | :11:59. | |
help but notice health and finances clubs everywhere. A rich diet and | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
changing lifestyles have made India, the type two diabetes capital of the | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
world. Maybe it is a sign. Wish me luck! So after a week of | :12:11. | :12:18. | |
indulging myself, and especially with the Maharajah, with all of that | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
food, the jacket is feeling tight. So I thought a little bit of | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
fitness, a little bit of dance. The nation's waist lines may be | :12:27. | :12:45. | |
growing but so is the fitness industry, now worth ?1 billion a | :12:46. | :12:51. | |
year. As ever in India, the people here seem to keep what they love and | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
embrace what is new. It turns out I'm a natural, or maybe | :12:54. | :13:12. | |
the Bollywood moves are just second nature. | :13:13. | :13:22. | |
That is fantastic. I've lost two stone. I'm off for a burger. What is | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
hot in Delhi now? Momos. What is that. | :13:29. | :13:37. | |
An Indian version of Chinese dumplings. | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
Excellent. I am being taken to the regular momo stand. This is the | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
first time I've had food here. It is not the traditional Punjabi flavours | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
that I grew up with. So it is vegetarian. It is cooked on the | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
tandoor. It has a fantastic ripe dough. The | :13:59. | :14:14. | |
filling is garlic, chilli, onion and a fantastic chutney. Vinegar and | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
chilli. Simple two ingredients, it is hot but does not distract from | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
the flavour. The Punjabis came and changed the food scene completely, | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
now this momo is Tibetan, now we have made our own. | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
These young Delhis have it sorted. Work hard, play hard, after a | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
Bollywood sweat class, they are out on the street. It shows how the face | :14:44. | :14:52. | |
of food is changing from Tibet, Afghanistan, changing the food | :14:53. | :14:54. | |
slightly again. It is always evolving. That is wonderful about | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
the food in India. The traditions stay the same but they have the | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
tweaks from whateverever comes in. It is my last day and I'm finally in | :15:03. | :15:26. | |
the heart of the capital. Today, I will be reunited with the side of my | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
family who stayed in Delhi. After travelling 300 miles from Amritsar | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
as refugees back in 1947, from what I know, temporary camps were set up | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
all over the city to shelter the millions of displaced people and my | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
grandparents ended up here, at the red Fort. This was one of the | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
refugee camps -- largest refugee camps after partition with 13 | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
million people moved every arbitrary line drawn on a map. My great | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
grandparents did that journey. I can't even imagine what hardships | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
they went through. We came down in luxury and fun, stopping and eating | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
food and they did not even know where their next meal was coming | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
from or whether they would make it. Imagine this full of people and | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
tents. But you on the road for weeks to get there. And then you are | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
thrown into this and that is for millions of people and we were just | :16:22. | :16:30. | |
one family. And that disbursed Sikhs drab world. A million people died in | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
that time, I can't even get my head around that. There's only 5 million | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
people in the whole of Scotland. It is something to find out now, so I | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
can tell my kids. I need to speak to someone who actually lived through | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
partition. I'm going to see my great uncle at the family home, that sits | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
on the same plot my great grandparents were given, 60 years | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
ago. There you go. That is the house. My great grandad's name, my | :17:02. | :17:09. | |
grandad's name, my grammar's name. It is so hard to imagine that when | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
they came here, this was nothing, all farmland. This was the block | :17:13. | :17:21. | |
going backwards, 15 by six, that was it, that is what they were given. -- | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
was the plot. It shows the heart of the Punjabi spirit, look at what | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
they built, look at the house. They stayed and prospered and travelled | :17:31. | :17:31. | |
the world. I'm glad to be home. My parents have flown over from | :17:32. | :17:39. | |
Scotland for their regular visit. It feels good to see my mum. And my | :17:40. | :17:58. | |
dad. They have arranged for me to spend time with my 89 you rolled | :17:59. | :18:05. | |
great uncle. -- 89-year-old. I have only met him once. Tell me about | :18:06. | :18:12. | |
what it feels because we are in Scotland and there is other people | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
in parts of the world. He says it is great, God's well, amazing. He says | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
it does not matter because we are of one blood. | :18:21. | :18:46. | |
I am realising my family bond, like my Indian traditions, are strong, | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
and that good food brings people together. My mum has cooked up a | :18:52. | :18:58. | |
feast and this journey has shown me that her Punjabi cooking is the real | :18:59. | :19:00. | |
deal. I came to find out if I can fit in, | :19:01. | :19:12. | |
and I can. I can have one foot in Punjab and one in Scotland. And I am | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
proud to have two strong, independent heritages that I can | :19:19. | :19:19. | |
call my own. Right, it's time to find out | :19:20. | :19:28. | |
whether Nina is facing Food Heaven So Nina, your Food Heaven | :19:29. | :19:30. | |
would be duck, which I'm going to cook in a Chinese style | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
in hot fat so it's nice and crispy, then serve it with aubergine | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
covered in a miso caramel, edamame beans and finally | :19:39. | :19:41. | |
some curly kale. Or you could be having Food Hell, | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
scallops which I'll cook then put back in their shells, | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
cover in a creamy sauce They literary | :19:51. | :19:59. | |
don't want to put them in my mouth! -- look very beautiful. | :20:00. | :20:00. | |
It's sprinkled in breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese | :20:01. | :20:02. | |
and topped with creamy mashed potato then grilled. | :20:03. | :20:04. | |
I don't know. I'm not sure. I'm not sure whether they want to punish me | :20:05. | :20:12. | |
or if it is what they want to weep themselves. Have obviously been | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
kind, so it is a whitewash, 5-0 for the duck. We will get rid of this. | :20:16. | :20:22. | |
Take those back to the restaurant! You know how good they are. | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
I'm going to get Ashley to extend what we're doing with the duck | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
breast but we are slicing the skin and it will be pan-fried, skin side | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
down to get it nice and crispy but there is a way we can crisp it up at | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
the end. And then I'm going to get Housego sort out the aubergines | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
here. We're going to deep fry these. No need use salt or do anything to | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
get rid of the bitterness because you basically cook them | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
straightaway. Do people still do that? I suppose you can do. Are used | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
to do it religiously and now I don't care. You don't need to because they | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
are hybrids now. Then we have this kale which is lovely. Social media | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
is going crazy and people want to know when they can see you. They can | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
come to the Edinburgh Festival. That is fun because there's a million | :21:14. | :21:18. | |
brilliant shows anyway. It goes on for a month doesn't it? Yes | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
brilliant shows anyway. It goes on everyone goes mad. Does everyone | :21:22. | :21:28. | |
still go? It's huge! But comedians? Reds we all go there for highs and | :21:29. | :21:30. | |
lows and nervous Reds we all go there for highs and | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
artistic inspiration. Then I'm on tour all over the country. I create | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
a new show every night so it is all with three different and you can | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
come more than once, because it depends on who I talk to, or who the | :21:43. | :21:44. | |
monkey talks to. depends on who I talk to, or who the | :21:45. | :21:51. | |
for you? We mentioned it at the top of the show. You must find it | :21:52. | :21:54. | |
incredibly difficult because a lot of people go on tour and you see | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
comedians with a rough idea of what they are going to do before they get | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
out there. But for you, that is an hour and a half with nothing | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
planned. But it is glorious because people bring so much and I end up | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
with ten people on stage, whole families, everyone wearing masks, | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
controlling their own and I'm throwing my voice to them when they | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
are doing their bit. And then it is a complete scramble at the end. | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
Everyone becomes like cartoon characters. But how do you do it? | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
How did you train? characters. But how do you do it? | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
those things you can do or you can't. It is to do with whoever you | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
are working with. I used to play against type so if someone | :22:33. | :22:39. | |
are working with. I used to play were but now it's more fun to try to | :22:40. | :22:41. | |
work out who they are and go along with it. -- how outlandish they | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
were. It is always a surprising show for me and I enjoyed doing it. | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
were. It is always a surprising show Because I'm so boring! Imagine if I | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
did the show without all that! It is very liberating for me to inhabit | :22:53. | :22:53. | |
all of these other very liberating for me to inhabit | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
characters. Can you get away with a lot more? You can get away with | :23:01. | :23:08. | |
anything! You can say anything, having 16 Uros Celcer saying she's | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
pregnant and the family all kind of go along this weird scenario. -- a | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
16-year-old girl. I'm going to get out of the way. No, this is the duck | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
breast. It is the in no time. That is on the skin side. Is that because | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
it is organically not? And two trained chefs doing it as well. The | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
glaze is lots of sugar and then you put water on it and this is the miso | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
caramel and then we put the white miso paste, which is this... Do we | :23:40. | :23:47. | |
have the spoon, there? A tablespoon? I thought you said tablespoon! It is | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
the accent. Then we have some clear honey, this is a simple marinade. If | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
you want, you can boil it and leave it and it is great for fish but | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
alternatively you can turn it into caramel miso. As you cook it, it | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
turns to caramel because of the sugar in there, you cook it for ten | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
or 15 minutes and you have to keep your eyes on it because it can burn | :24:10. | :24:12. | |
but as you cook it, it can turn into this. Really? You get this amazing | :24:13. | :24:19. | |
soy sauce. I will show you the difference between the two. I will | :24:20. | :24:22. | |
grab the kale. The aubergine is being deep-fried. This is what I | :24:23. | :24:33. | |
learned from Ken Hom. Really hot fat, just frying the skin. It crisps | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
it up nicely, a different way of doing it. You have been walking | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
around all over the place this morning with this bag. What is in | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
it? That is the monkey. Can anyone stand to have a monkey while they | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
are eating. We have got a few minutes left. Is this the original | :24:52. | :24:59. | |
monkey? The first property ladder? Yes, and I have been with him so | :25:00. | :25:07. | |
long. This is exciting. But I won't be able to eat. " Hang on, Housego | :25:08. | :25:17. | |
we're not that into it". "Housego You need to ask first". "What's | :25:18. | :25:25. | |
That? Don't do that to me Ashley, I don't want to go in there". You | :25:26. | :25:31. | |
might actually fit in there. It looks quite sinister. Do people eat | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
monkey these days? Is the thing about the monkey in the middle of | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
the table true?" I have heard that, that they decapitate a monkey. | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
"Jesus, I hope that's not true". Just take this. Just you! That's | :25:48. | :25:57. | |
really nice. That taste like jam. " How do you know?" Taste that one. | :25:58. | :26:08. | |
That is really nice. Same thing. That one is more intense, really | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
sweet. But fantastic with the aubergine so we're going to grab | :26:13. | :26:18. | |
them. Drain the kale if you can. He could do it. "I'm Essentially an | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
oven glove. I will take anything out of the oven that you want. Here we | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
go. We will just warm up the beans and then we're going to plate this | :26:30. | :26:36. | |
up. You're going back? "I Know when I'm not wanted". He wants an answer | :26:37. | :26:45. | |
and so do I. Is it true? It's not true. It would have been years ago. | :26:46. | :26:52. | |
But I think he is safe. By. "Take Your hand-out". | :26:53. | :27:02. | |
Have we got the duck? You can do it in a Michelin style swipe or | :27:03. | :27:10. | |
whatever you want to do. Over the top! There we go. Get that over the | :27:11. | :27:19. | |
top. That looks lovely. And then we grab some toasted white and dark | :27:20. | :27:30. | |
sesame seeds. A bit of coriander. I was lucky, I discovered a new heaven | :27:31. | :27:35. | |
in your earlier dish. It was amazing, wasn't it? So let's grab | :27:36. | :27:43. | |
some knives and forks. You get to dive in. It is sweet and sticky. And | :27:44. | :27:51. | |
so fast! How fast was that? We had one conversation and you did all | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
this. And a bit of monkeying around. We have an extra special pinot noir, | :27:58. | :28:04. | |
2013, priced at just under ?8 from Asda. The crispy skin goes with it. | :28:05. | :28:13. | |
I learned that from Ken Hom, as I said and I think with the sauce | :28:14. | :28:20. | |
Micro, it is really intense. And the aubergine are delicious. It is | :28:21. | :28:23. | |
