I bought my second hand culinary math cookbook from Amazon yesterday for about 20 dollars. Happily, it looks like math for real morons. My only hope is running out the clock before we get to algebra.
She’s part Chinese or Korean and Austrian, I think. But speaks with a British accent. She wears all these cute dresses and talks to Parisian butchers and bakers. I’ve made her quiche once or twice.
She is adorable looking.......has to be w/ that pedigree. LOL.
I was doing just fine with weights and measures until my first attempt at Beef Bourguignon for eight. How many 750 ml bottles of Burgundy does it taken to prepare the dish if the chef sips about 80 ml every ten minutes?
LOL!!!
See, these are the kind of questions that flummox me before I fall to the ground dead drunk.
I’m not crazy, though, for the Lorraine Pascal Brit. She also appears on a cake contest show on the Food Network and is kind of snotty.

Choppped had the cutest Brit....she taught cooking in her home.
Her dishes looked fantastic...except she lucked out on her dessert.
They occasionally do have Brits. But the French-trained chefs always seem to win.
The French techniques are amazing.....that’s why they win.
The judges love technique.....
Plus the French chefs can make an extraordinary garnish out of anything.
Yes. If you read Jacque Pepin’s autobio, you’ll see that he slaved for years in French kitchens - just learning how to cut an onion. Most people could not possibly be that dedicated but it’s what happens in France. Gordon Ramsey could barely deal with it and he has or had a Michelin star.
And I hear tell the top drawer French chefs ruled the kitchen with an iron hand.....they put the sous chefs went through hell.
That’s what I’ve always understood. They refused to give Julia Child her diploma simply because she was not French. But she got her revenge on them.
That’s ok, it wasn’t taught in any school I went to. I only found that out because I’m a plants geek and was trying to see how many varieties I could grow without them crossing :)

Looks like an elegant update on Eggs Benedict. Plus, some of their bacon - they have a lot more cuts than streaky - is absolutely delicious.
