Hello all.  I hope you are well.  Just had to comment, just started watching this morning Northampton CDWM that I had already recorded.  I am already a little irritated hahaha.  I am sometimes amazed that people who come on a food program can be so ignorant of some classic dishes, even if they have never cooked them.   Three out of four not knowing what Vichyssoise is.  OMG some of their comments made me cringe a little.  Off to watch the rest of it now.  It can only get better

Hi Lilli, good to see you back.

Considering it is a cooking competition, the culinary ignorance of some contestants is staggering. On last night's show, some contestants had never heard of a noisette, which one pronounce "nose-etta", another called Crab Mornay "Crab Monray" and another one didn't know what a jus was.

Baz, after consulting hubby's 'Escoffier' book, I can confirm that "quenelles" is the correct spelling for the catering art of shaping food between two spoons.

Finished watching, Caroline deserved first, my favourite menu.  However Barb should have been second.  Come on Duncan used Angel Delight with green food colouring in his desert  and although his starter sounded good on paper, that steak looked overdone to me and he used jars of pesto.  I love home made pesto and it is so easy to make.  This is after all a dinner party competition.

As for all that fuss from some over two prawns in Barb's starter, sad in my opinion.  I had a slap forehead moment.   Her starter is something I will try.  That spinach dip looked really nice. Her whole menu looked a menu I will try in the future.

I have a question for everyone.  If you went to a dinner party of people you did not know too well and you found a single hair on your plate, what would you do, tell or not?

Hi there Lili ....great to see you again Regards the hair on the plate it would probably put me off my meal , but I would just push it to one side and not saying anything  

I knew hubby's 100+ cooking books would come in useful one day.

evening 

Hi Yogi Don't remember this one 

Hi Pengy

Hi Pengy.

Nice starter

Nah....as if  

Her kitchen looks very bare and clinical.
