Selfish shrew France, praising his finest chefs de cuisine for the fact that it makes a refined cuisine and traditional dishes mocks the rest of the world. Embarrassing Poland, chlipiąc tomato with rice, a native kuchmistrzach not know anything. United Kingdom ridiculed his outstanding cooks knows and sees and asks for autographs.Thickest country of Europe - the British come to terms with this opinion. Despite numerous campaigns to combat obesity, islanders like to eat and eat. Demanding increasing numbers of wider seats on buses - will eat. It has been said that the traditional British food is not the best. However, the mix of flavors from around the world is widely available here, so I can try thang. For history has already passed the bon mot. Jacque Chirac, who four years ago, said: "You can not trust people who cook as badly. Finally, after Finland, Britain is the country with the worst food, and the only thing the British, the European agriculture przyświadczyli - a mad cow ... "Paradoxically, almost as poorly as the kitchen, the British Isles are famous for their outstanding chefs. Heston Blumenthal, Martin Blunos, Gary Rhodes, Gordon Ramsay ... exchange can be long. At the beginning of this elite joined another 26 names.In the second week of January, for 5 days before the scheduled announcement of the results leaked to the internet a list of restaurants in England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland, winning a Michelin star this year. It was quite a surprise, because Michelin highly appreciates discretion.Since 1933, his hundred messengers anonymous tests and evaluates restaurants worldwide. To give away to an unlimited pool of stars, which give lokalom checked. Generous, but they are not. 3 stars is as much at once can get a restaurant. If you are dazzled by the splendor star chef, try to stop him-it may be received, which is in the culinary world's greatest degradation. The effects of the inspectors' work each year are placed in the red guide, which is called by the restaurateurs' red bible "Britain has three three-star restaurants," The Fat Duck 'in Bray, Berkshire (sommalierem there is a Pole), "The Waterside Inn" also in Bray and the "Restaurant Gordon Ramsay 'in ChelseaThis year it arrived: four two-star restaurants, and a record number of new one star-until the 26th Although the English version of the red guide, entitled "The greatest cities of Europe" is a section on Warsaw, and since last year also Krakow - Poland still does not light or a star from Michelin. In our country there is a belief that talent and technique of the chef, is 40 percent. success in cooking at the desired level of star, the remaining 60 percent. This top quality product. Restaurateurs complain of difficult access to fresh fish, vegetables and seafood. It is something else. In Poland, it seems a great sum of interior and restaurant equipment. Impressive front of the house is still a major ambition of the owners of exclusive apartments. All this at the expense of the kitchen. Islands-exclusive, has a different meaning. Exclusive, that is, offering delicious a la carte menu. In London, recognized by Michelin-starred restaurants, it is usually a small room suitable for a small number of customers. Number of kitchen staff often exceeds half the number of guests, which can accommodate a single place. The interior is modest, only to draw attention to a plate.According to the French definition - gastronomy is the art of cooking and serving of food, based on the culinary expertise, is the art of eating. Nobody said that it must be like a mother.Food given to arouse the senses, and tasting it is to move into another dimension. This moment is a triumph of the chef.
Lodge chefs
Polish cuisine is a few hundred years of tradition. Old Polish chef does not cook. He managed the kitchen and the help he had: ochmistrzów, cutting, and podstolich Makovetski, butler and cześników,kluczników and basement. Many, many years later, in the face of deprivation which brought about the history, occupation has ceased to cook a good mate. Currently, trade back into favor. In the Polish lodge chefs have their place, including: Jaroslaw Faryna, Paul Anders, Martin Walasek, or Charles Okrasa. Some of the greatest in Poland. Completely unknown to the wider public, anonymous, except Okrasy, who appeared on television. The rest might know, and may not know that today is delicious at present in television and the Internet. When in the UK on the screen Nigella pichciła pancakes with strawberries, on the second day strawberries vanished from the shops as ever, and half British, biting last billets, exclaimed: It makes great pancakes Nigella!.Small studio, kitchen dresser in the background. These cans of spices, stand equally in a row. Stove with worktop. One camera. Mr. Stiff explained with each movement: "Now we need salt" (camera brings a can of salt) silence "now solimy" silence "then we will move to the cutting of meat" (the camera closer meat) silence "cut meat" So in short it looks Polish culinary program. No wonder that our productions themselves "fall" after a few episodes. Even though Linda did not succeed. In Poland there are currently no culinary media personalities, who would have flair, ability to improvise and the idea for themselves. In the UK, have tried everything. Laid-back Jamie Oliver - youngster is wearing long-sleeved "dragged" to the throngs of teenage girls pots and boys. Divine unconsciously like Nigella Lawson, and deliberately tempted, kneading the dough in the program "Nigella bites" In the U.S., the show titled "Nigella swallows" .... Who saw Nigella licking your fingers, do not believe that this "evocative" name is a coincidence. Hairdresser - Delia Smith gave "instructions" hard-boiled eggs. Since then the phrase "do Deli" is used to determine the simplest food preparation. Rick Stein's dog Chalky has performed with. Really hard to count how many culinary programs produced in the UK. Some like "Masterchef" must count in the series. This year, viewers can watch the fifth. Cooking on the screen is incredibly popular in Britain, and once a new box office successes of the programs relate. Different host, different patents and tricks they use to viewers not reached for the remote. One thing remains common. Simple rules to "work", the ingredients that you can buy in the store and the pleasure of cooking. And most importantly, they say to you: "Now you'll need salt, and now the meat habit" Yes, you dear telewidzu, because it is so simple that you too can do it. Everything looks natural, nothing is przekombinowane. Delia is a little stiff, but therein lies its charm, in television there is nothing worse as artificial slack. The Polish television (not only in culinary programs) such "grooms" is on the bunches. Watching British culinary productions difficult to know if this program did cook or chef program. But there are also such items, which one watches because it cooks in them great, authority, catering creator. It seems that among the masters of British fashion pan prevailed in his own program. God created food, and the devil cooks proves in his "Hell's Kitchen 'Gordon Ramsay temperamental. The holder of three Michelin stars is also the author of "F.world," which in Polish translation reads, "To the ... as a cook." Letter F in the original name has suggest food, or food. In addition, calls to mind Gordon unsophisticated vocabulary, because some of the F word appears in countless times. "Towards ... like cook" - even if Gordon knew the Polish language, not invented probably a better name.The television is also present internationally recognized, eccentric innovator Heston Blumenthal. The owner wspominanej at the beginning of the restaurant "The Fat Duck" is a pioneer of molecular cuisine. Chefs like to spoil the molecular order of things. What has always been warm, give cold. What solid, as smooth. Molecular cooking is cooking dishes from all natural ingredients. The technique involves breaking down food into prime factors. Chef brings taste or smell of food and encloses them in something else. May close a salad, say it with avocado and carrot in a jar, where he has already put the scent. Once opened, we can enjoy the same salad, but it smelled like, for example ... a new book or a rain drenched earth. Is the total van. So far not decided whether this way of cooking is a cuisine, art, or perhaps a science. Blumenthal sells such dishes every day in the "Fat Duck". His menu is a dish called "The Sound of Sea" ("The sound of the sea"). At the plate with the fish in the toilet is tucked away an iPod and headphones. Guests eat, hear the sound of the waves. For the experimenter, it is important physiological sensation of taste stimuli.No wonder that his program "In search of perfection" is broadcast on Discovery ScienceThe most outstanding British chefs through appearances on television, thanks to his books, which push up the bestseller lists Harry Porter are recognized and popular just like actors, singers and players.This season, the network schedule of all BBC programs were combined, fewer than 23 culinary programs. Channel 4 broadcast of -15. In February we were able to watch a two-week cycle of Blumenthal, Ramsay, Fearnley-Whittingstall, and Olivier, "The Great British Food Fight." Fearnley-Whittingstall has examined the conditions under which chickens are reared, which then goes to Tesco. Olivier made a similar investigation into the pork, and Blumenthal took a great past, the British restaurant chain "Little Chefs". Telewizorku cooking was not, and "The Great British Food Fight" attracted audiences million.George Mikes - author of "How to be British" in 1949 noted that "on the Continent people have good food, and England have good table manners." Today you can paraphrase his words: "on the Continent people have good food in England have a good TV"
