Is it true French people smell bad?

Thi chef doesn't have any answers for us!

[ferretchucker]

okay then. What's the recipe for tomato ketchup. The same kind you buy in a shop. I want a real answer. And certain smoothies are shit, some arent. I don't wanna scare you away because you seem like an okay guy, but can I have your favourite smoothie recipe?

Yeah, that's not an utterly pretentious thing to say at all.

"I dont know" probably would have beena more appropriate response. Arrogance is typically a mask for ignorance.

smoothies are smoothies. one good recipe is no better or worse thanthe next one you'll read in "good housekeeping" magazine... not that i do.

More arrogance. nice. Why not answer the question rather than dodging it? Or simply say "I dont know"

better still, set the microwave to the suggested time, and listen for the popping to slow down. If all else fails, set it to 30 seconds less than the recommeneded time and deal with more seeds.




You could always link to food network recipes, or you could plagarize them in an attempt to look cool. Just some ideas.

No shit. He has a genuine passion for food, nothing is "beneath" him.

All hail Cheeba! (phalanx)

Watch Hell's Kitchen or Kitchen Nightmares (either the original or the American ones). Who usually fucks up and gets yelled at the most? Usually arrogant, self righteous Executive chefs who think they know everything.



Cooks who think they are above anything other than caviar, fois gras and truffles are overcompensating for a lack of talent and taste with flashy, expensive ingredients.

TRY making a good chili, or french toast, or biscuits. Simple goods are often the best, and require a lot more finesse than ingredients that are good all on their own.

Chilli is "beneath" you?......WTF

Maybe you should have read some threads and got the vibe of the posters. We are more a chilli, ketchup type crowd than a foo foo french parfiat type whatever.



next thing you'll be telling me you don't like beer.:rolleyes:
