Love food?

0:00:020:00:04

Love cooking?

0:00:040:00:05

This series will show you how professional secrets

0:00:050:00:08

can transform good food into amazing food.

0:00:080:00:11

Oh, gosh, that looks good.

0:00:110:00:14

I'm Simon Hopkinson

0:00:140:00:16

and cooking means the world to me.

0:00:160:00:18

I love cooking, it's my life, it's my passion.

0:00:180:00:21

As a child and teenager, eating was always an adventure.

0:00:210:00:25

I opened my first restaurant at the age of 20

0:00:250:00:28

and have been in and out of kitchens ever since.

0:00:280:00:31

But now I'm better known for my cookery books.

0:00:310:00:34

I love every minute of it,

0:00:340:00:36

from peeling a potato to roasting a chicken,

0:00:360:00:39

to making a sticky toffee pudding and pouring lots of cream on it.

0:00:390:00:43

For me, nothing beats cooking at home.

0:00:450:00:48

It's my real inspiration.

0:00:480:00:51

I want it to be as good as it possibly can be.

0:00:530:00:56

And I want to share my love of it with you.

0:00:560:01:00

I'll be introducing some new ingredients

0:01:000:01:02

and also cooking classic dishes that everyone can make.

0:01:020:01:06

That is just how it should be.

0:01:060:01:09

Follow my tips and you'll be able to create outstanding dishes,

0:01:120:01:15

good enough for a restaurant

0:01:150:01:17

but made from the comfort of your own kitchen.

0:01:170:01:19

Making the ordinary extraordinary.

0:01:190:01:22

If you follow my lead, eating at home will always be a treat.

0:01:220:01:26

I just love it.

0:01:260:01:27

I find the process of cooking food every bit as enjoyable as eating it.

0:01:410:01:45

I want all the meals I cook to be terrific.

0:01:450:01:47

Even a simple baked pasta can be sensational.

0:01:470:01:50

I'm going to show you how to make a delicious supper

0:01:500:01:54

using dried porcini mushrooms.

0:01:540:01:56

Do it this way and pasta will never be the same again.

0:01:560:02:00

Dried porcini - they're something I'm never without.

0:02:000:02:02

Fantastic in soups, risottos,

0:02:020:02:04

in a wonderful pasta dish I'm going to cook.

0:02:040:02:08

It's a wonderful thing to have.

0:02:080:02:10

The great thing about dried porcini is they keep in the cupboard

0:02:100:02:13

for months and you can pull them out when you want to turn pasta into something really special.

0:02:130:02:18

Smelling fantastic, already.

0:02:210:02:23

The last thing you want is for the milk to boil over,

0:02:230:02:26

especially when it's flavoured with such a wonderful ingredient.

0:02:260:02:29

I think that's fine.

0:02:290:02:31

I'm going to leave that to steep now, for at least ten minutes.

0:02:330:02:37

While the mushrooms mingle with the milk,

0:02:370:02:39

move on to the most crucial part of this recipe,

0:02:390:02:42

a simple white sauce.

0:02:420:02:44

Begin with butter and flour and keep stirring.

0:02:440:02:48

This is as far as you should take it, sort of pale golden.

0:02:480:02:51

Now, these should be ready.

0:02:530:02:54

Pour in the flavoured milk and put the porcini to one side.

0:02:540:02:58

You'll be adding them later.

0:02:580:03:00

If you are worried about lumps, don't be!

0:03:030:03:06

I've got a simple, good solution.

0:03:060:03:08

Whenever making white sauce,

0:03:080:03:11

start off straightaway with a whisk, you really can't go wrong.

0:03:110:03:15

And now we'll return to a spoon. This is a very gentle process.

0:03:170:03:22

A touch of seasoning.

0:03:220:03:24

And some pepper.

0:03:250:03:27

Sauces such as this shouldn't be rushed.

0:03:280:03:31

I love slow cooking.

0:03:310:03:33

I did enough fast cooking in a restaurant kitchen

0:03:330:03:36

to last a lifetime, really.

0:03:360:03:38

That is about ready. Not too thick.

0:03:380:03:41

This is a dish to use dried pasta.

0:03:420:03:45

I don't understand supposedly fresh pasta in supermarkets.

0:03:450:03:48

It's very rarely found in shops in Italy.

0:03:480:03:51

Dried is it - and nothing wrong with it.

0:03:510:03:53

This is going to cook more once it's in the oven, bathed in its sauce.

0:03:560:04:01

So we want to keep it slightly underdone.

0:04:010:04:04

Just give it a wiggle about.

0:04:040:04:06

Straight into the bowl.

0:04:120:04:14

You can use everyday streaky bacon here

0:04:140:04:16

but it's worth paying the extra for pancetta.

0:04:160:04:19

You only need a bit.

0:04:190:04:20

This is smoked and cured. It gives a nice, extra little bit of flavour.

0:04:200:04:24

Tip in the porcini...

0:04:240:04:26

..and the wonderful sauce.

0:04:270:04:29

Make sure you butter the baking dish well

0:04:360:04:39

so that the pasta doesn't stick when you come to serve it.

0:04:390:04:42

More butter, more butter, more butter.

0:04:420:04:44

Oh, gosh, that looks good.

0:04:480:04:49

Finally, I couldn't envisage this dish without a Parmesan topping.

0:04:490:04:54

I tend to be quite generous with it.

0:04:540:04:57

Oh, go on, a bit more.

0:05:000:05:02

It's the porcini in this pasta that will make it truly delicious,

0:05:070:05:11

and those that grow in the dark forests of Northern Italy

0:05:110:05:14

have a really intense flavour.

0:05:140:05:16

While growing in the forest, they are a protected delicacy

0:05:190:05:24

and pickers are very, very secretive about their favourite patches.

0:05:240:05:28

Local artisan producers choose the mushrooms for selling fresh,

0:05:290:05:33

or for drying.

0:05:330:05:35

The trademark green gills are where the rich and nutty taste lies.

0:05:350:05:40

The drying process intensifies their flavour.

0:05:400:05:43

You can find dried porcini in most supermarkets.

0:05:450:05:47

They are a touch pricy

0:05:470:05:49

but their unique aroma and flavour, for me, are irresistible,

0:05:490:05:54

especially with this gorgeous pasta.

0:05:540:05:58

Fantastic, smelling amazing. I love this golden crust from the Parmesan.

0:05:580:06:04

You see the little porcini poking through.

0:06:040:06:06

It actually reeks of these wonderful mushrooms.

0:06:060:06:11

I am so looking forward to this.

0:06:110:06:14

Try and spread the crust around, because it is the best bit.

0:06:140:06:18

It smells fantastic. A little extra Parmesan.

0:06:180:06:23

The porcini really come through in this dish.

0:06:280:06:32

It's a very, very delicious, very special dish of pasta.

0:06:320:06:36

Cooked this way,

0:06:370:06:39

Pasta can be transformed into something really special.

0:06:390:06:43

Dried porcini adds punch and it's a great meal for all the family.

0:06:430:06:46

Good food is absolutely central to my life.

0:06:580:07:02

I genuinely look forward to cooking every day.

0:07:020:07:05

Ingredients are important, and nothing gives me more pleasure

0:07:050:07:10

than buying favourites that I know can be turned into lovely meals.

0:07:100:07:14

See you again, thanks, bye.

0:07:200:07:22

I fell in love with food the first time I went to France.

0:07:280:07:31

My eternal memory is of a white butter sauce.

0:07:310:07:36

It's such a living memory, that I want to cook it for you now.

0:07:360:07:39

The classic fish for this sauce is salmon,

0:07:410:07:43

but today I'm going to use scallops.

0:07:430:07:47

Whatever you choose, it's the irresistible sauce

0:07:470:07:51

that will astonish your friends, and it really isn't hard to make.

0:07:510:07:55

And we need a shallot.

0:07:550:07:57

This does, for me, require finely chopped shallots.

0:07:570:08:02

Straight in there.

0:08:060:08:08

We're going to need some white wine.

0:08:080:08:11

And the same of vinegar.

0:08:140:08:16

I'm going to need a little whisk for this.

0:08:230:08:26

You want to do this quite gently,

0:08:300:08:32

because you don't want the pan to scorch because that's

0:08:320:08:35

going to colour your sauce, it's going to make it not white anymore.

0:08:350:08:38

So this needs to be a gentle simmer.

0:08:380:08:40

So what you want is a sort of... a little wet mush of shallots.

0:08:460:08:50

The nearest description I can get. That's fine.

0:08:510:08:56

At this point I'm going to switch the heat off,

0:08:560:08:59

and add the first... three of four lumps of butter.

0:08:590:09:03

Because of the heat of the pan, this will start to melt.

0:09:040:09:08

Add the butter piece by piece.

0:09:080:09:10

If you throw it all in at once it will separate.

0:09:100:09:12

A little bit more butter.

0:09:120:09:14

The first time I ate this sauce was in the Loire Valley,

0:09:140:09:18

when I was a teenager.

0:09:180:09:19

One of my last holidays with my parents, who were...

0:09:190:09:24

brilliant, for me, thinking back,

0:09:240:09:27

because they were good cooks themselves,

0:09:270:09:29

so I learned to cook in the kitchen from quite an early age.

0:09:290:09:33

A holiday in that part of France, when I first had this sauce,

0:09:330:09:38

I was astonished at its taste, even at sort of 13, 14.

0:09:380:09:42

It was one of those memorable moments,

0:09:420:09:46

key moments of my culinary learning.

0:09:460:09:49

A touch of seasoning and that's it. A simple sauce

0:09:490:09:52

and as good as you would taste in the finest restaurant.

0:09:520:09:56

Now, those scallops.

0:09:560:09:58

If they're not your cup of tea

0:09:580:10:00

then almost any fish works well with this sauce.

0:10:000:10:02

Add a touch more salt and pepper...

0:10:060:10:08

The absolute key to cooking scallops perfectly

0:10:130:10:15

is to use a really hot griddle.

0:10:150:10:18

Great, let's go.

0:10:180:10:19

They will only need a couple of minutes on each side.

0:10:210:10:23

Please try not to overcook them.

0:10:230:10:26

There we are. They really are very easy to cook.

0:10:260:10:29

This is one of the easiest and most successful ways of cooking them.

0:10:290:10:32

It's fast, and when they're really fresh, like these are,

0:10:320:10:35

then you don't have any problem.

0:10:350:10:38

Straight on the plate.

0:10:380:10:41

Five is a nice serving of scallops, I think.

0:10:440:10:47

An odd number - three, five, seven, always looks better.

0:10:470:10:52

And the lovely, lovely white butter sauce.

0:10:520:10:54

And somebody might think,

0:10:570:10:59

it's spoiling the lovely caramelisation on the scallops.

0:10:590:11:03

Sorry, this is scallops with a sauce,

0:11:030:11:06

and the sauce goes on the food.

0:11:060:11:08

It doesn't go under the food, it doesn't get drizzled on the side.

0:11:080:11:11

It's scallops and white butter sauce, and it's lovely.

0:11:110:11:16

I'm going to eat the thing, not look at it!

0:11:160:11:19

So, just a few chives,

0:11:190:11:20

and I think that is a very pretty little plate of food.

0:11:200:11:23

You may look on it as being quite a restaurant dish, and it is,

0:11:230:11:26

but I don't see any reason why you can't do it at home.

0:11:260:11:29

Oh, memories. Everything it should be.

0:11:320:11:36

It doesn't get much better than that sweet scallop,

0:11:360:11:39

and the buttery sauce.

0:11:390:11:41

A marriage made in heaven.

0:11:420:11:44

This quick recipe is an impressive starter

0:11:460:11:49

and will delight your friends,

0:11:490:11:51

or you could indulge in it as a treat for two.

0:11:510:11:53

France continues to inspire my love for food and cooking.

0:11:580:12:02

In the south, a remote harbour town produces a small fish

0:12:050:12:08

that packs a huge punch.

0:12:080:12:10

Without a doubt, some of the best anchovies I've ever tasted

0:12:120:12:15

come from here.

0:12:150:12:17

And you'll always find them in my fridge.

0:12:170:12:20

The local producers use traditional methods

0:12:200:12:23

to prepare these little fish.

0:12:230:12:25

They are stored in salt for three months before being filleted.

0:12:250:12:29

As far as I'm concerned,

0:12:290:12:30

anchovies are one of the sea's greatest treats.

0:12:300:12:34

There isn't a supermarket I know that doesn't stock them.

0:12:340:12:37

And this famous French recipe really gives them a chance to shine.

0:12:370:12:41

I love anchovies, and they are essential to my Salad Nicoise.

0:12:410:12:45

I've been making this salad for over 30 years and it still excites me.

0:12:450:12:51

Trust me, make it once and you'll fall in love with it too.

0:12:510:12:55

For the dressing, simply mix some garlic with some fruity olive oil.

0:12:560:13:01

Then it's curtain up for the rest of the cast.

0:13:010:13:04

Firstly, fat, juicy tomatoes. Cored, then sliced.

0:13:040:13:07

Make sure they are peeled -

0:13:070:13:09

you want the sweet juicy flesh

0:13:090:13:12

to easily mix in with the other ingredients.

0:13:120:13:16

Friends that know me very well

0:13:160:13:18

know how angry I get about that bit left on a bean.

0:13:180:13:21

Why would you not take it off?

0:13:210:13:23

Beans done. You won't get me being a lazy bean picker.

0:13:230:13:26

I'm just as fussy about how I cook them.

0:13:260:13:29

Good food is all about details.

0:13:290:13:32

Three minutes in boiling salted water.

0:13:320:13:35

Plunging them into this ice water will help them keep the colour.

0:13:350:13:38

They can stay in there for a little while.

0:13:380:13:41

Want perfect eggs as well? This is how you do it.

0:13:410:13:44

Put them in cold water, bring them up to the boil,

0:13:440:13:48

switch off the heat,

0:13:480:13:50

put a lid on, leave them for four minutes, exactly.

0:13:500:13:53

KITCHEN TIMER RINGS

0:14:040:14:05

Ah. Eggs.

0:14:050:14:07

Ice cold water stops the eggs cooking,

0:14:110:14:13

giving a runny yolk which looks impressive

0:14:130:14:15

and is gorgeous mixed into this salad.

0:14:150:14:19

It is tips like these that can make all the difference.

0:14:190:14:22

Now it's time to put on a show.

0:14:240:14:27

Don't be shy with the capers.

0:14:270:14:30

Most supermarkets have them, and also black olives.

0:14:300:14:32

It must be a black one,

0:14:320:14:34

green ones absolutely don't work in a Salad Nicoise.

0:14:340:14:38

Pretty, pretty olives.

0:14:380:14:39

If you can, hunt down some small fresh artichokes.

0:14:390:14:43

They give a lovely texture to the salad. A faint bitterness.

0:14:430:14:47

This is fun, I tell you.

0:14:470:14:50

Herbs are so important, too.

0:14:500:14:52

I'm using chervil. You could also use parsley,

0:14:520:14:56

but please put in basil, it is essential!

0:14:560:14:58

Now, for me, the most important part, the thing I love most -

0:14:580:15:01

I couldn't make this dish without anchovies.

0:15:010:15:04

Anchovies are part of my life, really.

0:15:040:15:06

I do love them.

0:15:060:15:08

A little bit of vinegar, but not too much, just a little trickle.

0:15:100:15:14

Now I'm going to cut these actually in the salad,

0:15:160:15:19

because I don't want to waste any of that lovely, lovely yolk.

0:15:190:15:24

It oozes sunshine now that it's got the eggs on.

0:15:250:15:28

Add the garlic dressing.

0:15:290:15:31

So, it is stir time.

0:15:330:15:36

It's a very clever salad.

0:15:360:15:40

It's all about fresh and sweet and oily and salty,

0:15:440:15:49

and every component is a star,

0:15:490:15:53

but this one gets dressing room number one.

0:15:530:15:55

Salads should never be dull.

0:15:570:16:00

There are so many flavours in this, everyone will love it and want more.

0:16:000:16:04

Some Ricard, please.

0:16:170:16:19

I have always enjoyed a nice drink, and alcohol - good alcohol -

0:16:210:16:26

has always played a very important part in my cooking.

0:16:260:16:28

For my next recipe, red wine is an essential ingredient.

0:16:320:16:36

I am going to make coq au vin.

0:16:380:16:40

Look, if you can make a decent chicken casserole, you can make coq au vin.

0:16:400:16:44

It's easier than you think.

0:16:440:16:46

A good wine is important,

0:16:460:16:48

one that you'd like to drink as well as to cook with,

0:16:480:16:51

and I'm going to show you how to make a really gorgeous coq au vin for a dinner party.

0:16:510:16:55

Thank you very much, thanks, bye.

0:16:550:16:57

Don't be intimidated by a coq au vin, my recipe takes

0:17:040:17:07

the basics of a rustic stew and turns it into something exceptional.

0:17:070:17:11

I'm going to put this on the flame.

0:17:140:17:16

While the wine comes to the boil, begin to make the stock.

0:17:180:17:21

This is my dad's old peeler.

0:17:240:17:27

And it's one of my most treasured possessions,

0:17:270:17:30

and it peels brilliantly.

0:17:300:17:32

These are just to flavour the wine, these vegetables.

0:17:380:17:41

They're going to be discarded once they've done their work.

0:17:410:17:45

My nice, friendly vicar allows me

0:17:520:17:55

to snip bay leaves from round the corner, which is very nice of him.

0:17:550:18:00

I don't want any harsh alcohol left in my delicious coq au vin.

0:18:050:18:09

There is an easy way to get rid of it.

0:18:090:18:12

This gives a softer,

0:18:130:18:14

more rounded flavour to the finished dish eventually.

0:18:140:18:17

When the flames have gone, so has the alcohol.

0:18:170:18:21

Add some thyme to the vegetables...

0:18:220:18:24

..spoon in some redcurrant jelly

0:18:260:18:29

and add a couple of spicy cloves.

0:18:290:18:31

Simmer until the wine is reduced by a third.

0:18:310:18:34

Then sieve the vegetable-infused marinade and leave to cool.

0:18:360:18:40

Now prepare the chicken.

0:18:450:18:47

I like coq au vin made from legs and thighs, and these are easily

0:18:470:18:50

found in the supermarket, and are perfect for coq au vin.

0:18:500:18:55

I've been always of the belief that coq au vin is made without skin.

0:18:550:19:01

Some may disagree with me,

0:19:010:19:02

but the first time I was taught to do it,

0:19:020:19:05

there was no skin, so take it off.

0:19:050:19:08

Cover the chicken in the marinade so it soaks up all the flavour.

0:19:100:19:14

Quite a nice sort of massaging moment.

0:19:180:19:20

This is going to go in the fridge for at least five to six hours,

0:19:220:19:26

but I prefer overnight.

0:19:260:19:29

And into the fridge.

0:19:310:19:32

Here we have the marinated chicken.

0:20:000:20:03

It's been in overnight,

0:20:030:20:05

it's gone a wonderfully deep purple.

0:20:050:20:08

Now move on to the other fundamental coq au vin ingredients.

0:20:080:20:12

Oh! The smell is wonderful.

0:20:210:20:22

While the bacon is sizzling, dry the chicken, season lightly and flour.

0:20:240:20:29

The flour that sticks to this gives it a nice crust,

0:20:290:20:32

but it also thickens the sauce as it cooks in the red wine.

0:20:320:20:36

The best way, when you want to remove the fat from something,

0:20:390:20:42

is just put your pan on a tilt and it all drains down.

0:20:420:20:47

It's actually a method I also use

0:20:470:20:49

for when I make bacon and eggs of a weekend morning.

0:20:490:20:53

I really want to eat one of these now, but I'm not going to.

0:20:580:21:02

Now fry the chicken, but take your time.

0:21:020:21:05

Do be brave with not turning the chicken too quickly.

0:21:060:21:09

You want this crust to form on the chicken,

0:21:090:21:12

and if you turn it too quickly what will happen is

0:21:120:21:15

the flour will stick to the bottom of the pot

0:21:150:21:17

and leave the chicken bare again.

0:21:170:21:19

It won't have its nice floury coating.

0:21:190:21:22

Very nice, looking gorgeous.

0:21:240:21:27

Cook the mushrooms and shallots separately with some butter.

0:21:290:21:33

Add a couple of bay leaves.

0:21:350:21:37

Add the shallots, mushrooms and bacon to the chicken.

0:21:370:21:42

It's the sauce that makes this coq au vin so delicious.

0:21:420:21:45

For even more flavour, I add a splash of brandy,

0:21:450:21:48

but, just like the wine,

0:21:480:21:49

don't forget to burn off the harsh alcohol.

0:21:490:21:52

But take care.

0:21:520:21:53

It's a good idea to put the bay leaves in after, actually.

0:21:530:21:56

Go out, that'll do.

0:21:570:21:59

Right, in with the marinade.

0:21:590:22:02

Lovely.

0:22:030:22:05

On with the lid,

0:22:070:22:09

and in there for about an hour.

0:22:090:22:13

Tricks I learned as a chef can be done easily at home,

0:22:240:22:28

especially when it comes to presentation.

0:22:280:22:30

A bit of geometry going on here.

0:22:300:22:32

See if I can get them all on. Bingo!

0:22:320:22:34

Fried bread dipped in some chopped parsley

0:22:340:22:38

is the classic French garnish and a delicious finishing touch.

0:22:380:22:41

I like to serve this at the table in a handsome dish.

0:22:460:22:49

You want your family or friends to help themselves.

0:22:490:22:53

Believe me, they'll be fighting over the spoon.

0:22:530:22:57

Do you know what? I can't resist having one of these now.

0:23:020:23:05

It's really so delicious, this.

0:23:050:23:07

It's worth the time and effort spent.

0:23:100:23:12

It's one of the great dishes of the world, ever.

0:23:120:23:14

Time spent on the marinade and being patient with the chicken

0:23:190:23:22

helps to make this recipe truly fabulous.

0:23:220:23:25

Chicken stew need never be the same again.

0:23:250:23:28

I have always had a sweet tooth.

0:23:350:23:37

And I try not to indulge it too often,

0:23:390:23:42

but now and then feel the urge to treat friends to a dessert

0:23:420:23:45

that I think is irresistible.

0:23:450:23:47

Sticky toffee pudding, made the traditional way.

0:23:500:23:53

I don't think I know anybody who doesn't like it.

0:23:550:23:59

It's sweet, it's luscious.

0:23:590:24:02

The most important ingredient

0:24:020:24:04

to get this pudding tasting like it should is dates.

0:24:040:24:07

Soak the chopped dates in boiling water for about five minutes.

0:24:070:24:11

The dates really are important,

0:24:140:24:16

and people do play around with this pudding far too much.

0:24:160:24:19

It's...

0:24:190:24:21

..nuts, bananas, dried apricots, prunes...

0:24:220:24:26

Who wants, in this really soft, luscious pudding, bits of nut?

0:24:280:24:33

I certainly don't.

0:24:340:24:36

Drain the dates and keep the liquid.

0:24:370:24:39

Put all these ingredients into a food processor.

0:24:390:24:43

Because I love it so much, I'm going to put a tiny bit extra in.

0:24:590:25:03

Finally, add the liquid from the dates.

0:25:030:25:06

It just looks a mess at the moment, doesn't it?

0:25:060:25:08

But it does turn into the most lovely, golden-looking batter.

0:25:080:25:12

It is quite nice and smooth, so you can still see the dates.

0:25:210:25:25

So, one big sticky toffee ready to go in the oven.

0:25:280:25:31

And this is at gas mark 4,

0:25:350:25:39

180 degrees, centigrade.

0:25:390:25:41

Now I'm going to do a little idea of my own, really.

0:25:490:25:54

It always rises more in the middle than it does on the outside...

0:25:540:25:57

And because I want the surface to be flatter than this

0:25:580:26:02

to take the toffee topping, what I do is to just remove...

0:26:020:26:07

I know it doesn't look very good, but it's going to be covered with the topping.

0:26:070:26:12

It allows the sauce to cover without bits of the sponge sticking through,

0:26:120:26:18

which would scorch under the grill.

0:26:180:26:21

So, for the sticky toffee topping.

0:26:210:26:24

First of all, double cream.

0:26:240:26:27

And molasses sugar.

0:26:270:26:29

Lovely, lovely, dark, treacly sugar.

0:26:290:26:31

You'll find it amongst all the other sugars in the supermarket.

0:26:310:26:35

A slightly salted butter.

0:26:360:26:38

Melt all the ingredients together and keep stirring

0:26:380:26:41

until it quietly comes to the boil.

0:26:410:26:43

All over in one go.

0:26:460:26:47

And under the grill, until it's bubbly and sticky.

0:26:490:26:55

For even more of an indulgence,

0:27:060:27:09

I make an extra butterscotch sauce to serve on the side.

0:27:090:27:13

And that's ready.

0:27:170:27:19

No calories in this pudding at all.

0:27:210:27:22

Here it comes.

0:27:250:27:26

Sticky, sticky.

0:27:290:27:30

Here goes.

0:27:300:27:31

Cook's perk.

0:27:360:27:38

So, the lighter sauce,

0:27:380:27:40

we pour a little round like that.

0:27:400:27:43

A bit of cold cream.

0:27:450:27:47

You wouldn't think so, but it's surprisingly light.

0:27:570:28:00

It's almost delicate.

0:28:000:28:01

It almost has, not a jelly-like consistency,

0:28:010:28:04

but it has a wobble about it.

0:28:040:28:06

The sauce is important, the cream you really don't have to do,

0:28:060:28:09

but I love the contrast of it cold.

0:28:090:28:11

What you should never, ever do, and don't be pushed into it,

0:28:110:28:15

is to say, "We'd love some ice-cream with that."

0:28:150:28:17

You cannot take any more sugar.

0:28:170:28:19

Truly one of the world's greatest puddings,

0:28:240:28:26

and it is so easy to make at home.

0:28:260:28:29

I just love it.

0:28:290:28:30

Next time...

0:28:300:28:31

I'll be showing you five more super recipes,

0:28:310:28:34

all of them special,

0:28:340:28:36

all of them easily made in the comfort of your own kitchen.
