    My eyes nearly popped out when I saw you use your fingers to plunge down the courgette - the food processor comes with a plunger to do that so you don't chop your fingers off

    I have to say with the blender/food processor thing I think you filled it too full with the meat mixture. It’s a mini so I think you’ve got to take that into account. Also those kinds of blenders always need the liquid at the bottom to get things going. It’s not powerful like those vitamix blenders that are $500. Just for the record I’m not a rep for the celebrity! 😂 just think you have to use them how they are intended for best results😀

    I was taught there are different types of spatulas, your orange one is designed to be used for baking which is why the sides of a bowl were easy to be scraped but Mary’s looks more like a cooking spatula, used as an alternative for a wooden spoon they’re designed to be harder partially to accomodate the heat they can be used with.

    A few years ago, here in Canada, Jamie Oliver's brand did a knife set in one of our major grocery chains. You had to collect points to buy them or something. My parents and inlaws got really into it, but I'm just glad they both have decent knives I can use when I visit! The bread knife is stellar. Probably isn't the same set, but great as well!

    The best knife I have is a Heston Blumenthal chef's knife that I bought totally by chance for a fiver! My local Waitrose has a small home section, and because I am a regular and always chat with the lovely ladies who work there. One evening, not long before closing time, I was checking out my shopping as usual when one of the ladies dashed up to me with a Heston Blumenthal chef's knife, and asked if I would like it for £5 as they were reducing them, and they knew that I love to cook (we often chat about what I am cooking). This was years and years ago, and it is still absolutely brilliant - hands-down the best knife I have ever had, sharpens really well. Obviously they were being discontinued at John Lewis, so the knives he puts his name to nowadays are probably a different supplier, but I would happily buy a knife with his name on again.

    With the knives. You need to test them when they become dull. That's a test of a good knife. When grating the courgette. Use the insert to push down on the courgette to grate it rather than risking your fingers. Lastly I learned something that sesame oil does in fact have a high smoke point. Chefs add it at the end because they don't overpower the flavours in their dish.

  • @yoditan
    @yoditan 8 місяців тому +6

    My experience with those kind of knife sets is that they usually last like 1-2 year before they get really dull. I know all knifes have to be sharpened. It's soo worth investing in really good knives because it saves you a lot of money and cuts your food really well. My mom bought some knives from Switzerland like 6 years ago and they are still so sharp.

    I LOVE all my hexclad pans. I got (/requested hihi) them as a gift from my parents when moving in to my new home, and I'm never looking at any other pans. There's still some skill required (proper heating/seasoning, use of some oil, etc) as things can stick, similar to using a stainless steel pan - but it's so much easier. They're also dishwasher safe, I've been doing that since I got them and they're good as new. And the sear you get with them as well! It's amazing. I was a bit nervous before I got them as they're not cheap and was scared it was all just hype, but they do deserve it.
    Also whenever I watch Ramsay's shows like Hell's Kitchen, I always feel a bit excited knowing I'm using the same pans they do haha. Just like a little kid 😅

I don't really trust celebrity endorsed kitchen products now, although they had a grocery store promotion for Jamie Oliver's knives here a few years ago, you'd get one free if you spent x amount of dollars each week, and people raved about them! I didn't bother because I already had a Kitchen Aid knife set that was really good. I'm hooked on Ninja products. I regret picking the Nutibullet over the Ninja blender. Every Ninja product I've used is top notch excellent.

    In case you aren't actually aware - people dislike Jamie Oliver because of his rhetoric around childhood obesity and his "solutions" to the problems (read: he basically boiled everything down to "you're poor and you want to be fat, that's your problem" - it's more nuanced than that, but it's not good). He's also a huge hypocrite. He talks about getting kids to eat healthy, then plasters his name on highly processed foods. And to top it all off, he's incredibly smug about it all.
