It was a special on Fox - he made a 3 course meal in an hour along with maybe 12 other people / couples on cam. So yeah, the dishes were simple. I do watch Hell's Kitchen when it's running so I know he's typically more complicated, but this was rookie stuff imo lol.
No deep fryer. Although I know Paula's cooking must be fantabulous, I'm not sure I
need to learn how to deep fry butter with bacon and cheese!
Was talking with Mom this morning, sharing with her my sudden interest in culinary arts lol. She said Mario is one of her favorites. And I learned that Alton Brown lives 15 minutes away from me. On a main street nonetheless - don't understand how he's not having people knocking on his door.
I really know poop about cooking. I've always wanted to. But never quite 'got there.' I can follow a recipe but I would really like to know the basics in order to put together something on my own - perhaps this domestic'ness is hitting me now since I'm getting older? Dunno...
Anyways keep the suggestions coming and thx
