00:01:53might tap lose this week
00:01:55oh that’s good we have sound Jubilee is
00:01:57asking when did you first learn to cook
00:01:59okay I learnt to cook when I was about
00:02:03eight years old I grew up in a pub
00:02:05restaurant in Essex and basically when I
00:02:08went downstairs there was my seven
00:02:09shifts I was started off in the
00:02:11wash up to obscure I bin and peel in bed
00:02:13and then eventually I got a job
00:02:14with the big boys and that was great yes
00:02:18so eight years old and now my little
00:02:19girl Daisy she’s starting to cook
00:02:21already the other ones not interested
00:02:22but Daisy she loves it so either
00:02:24chopping to the weekend

00:02:30is asking what do you pack for your kids
00:02:32hunch nothing they have a hot meal at
00:02:35school which is pretty good yes or no
00:02:39pad lunches although I’ve got nothing
00:02:40against pack lunches they can be very
00:02:41good although about 75% of pack lunches
00:02:44are worse than the worst school lunches
00:02:45I’ve seen terrible things in pet lunches
00:02:48I mean you wouldn’t believe I’ve seen
00:02:51larger kids going to school with cold
00:02:54leftover fast food burgers just tins of
00:02:59energy drinks that the funniest not way
00:03:02it’s not funny sad really the last pad
00:03:04lunch that took my breath away was a
00:03:05whole pack lunchbox just full of just

00:04:40this is a birthday prison and you might
00:04:42be thinking what is that bottle opener
00:04:43it’s not this is basically rap boy
00:04:45where’s my diet so what we got here this
00:04:52is from Gennaro
00:04:52basically this is dies here and you can
00:04:54see each end has a slightly different
00:04:56end you can get these online and email
00:05:00you know I think they’re about sort of
00:05:01full equals 50 quid I’m not expecting
00:05:03everyone in the world to have one of
00:05:04course I just thought it’s quite cool to
00:05:06have a look you’ve got tagliatelle there
00:05:09you’ve got a spaghetti there and you can
00:05:11basically do like a little rigatoni
00:05:13there it’s really cool it’s a brilliant
00:05:16birthday present if you’ve got a friend
00:05:18or a boy thank you friend that likes to
00:05:20cook and you don’t know what to get them
00:05:22and this is what Gennaro did and you put
00:05:24the different ends on it and then why
00:05:27thought I do is just show you how damn
00:05:29simple it is to make pasta I’ll do it
00:05:31super quick with one egg and 100 grams
00:05:36of flour so I just got that they call it
00:05:40tipo Giro zero which is basically how
00:05:43fine you can see that’s like fine like
00:05:45talcum powder white it up and you can do
00:05:48it in a bowl with a fork but you
00:05:50literally want it up it will come
00:05:51together it will start cleaning the side
00:05:53of the board and then you can just sort
00:05:56of need it but it’s so quick but it’s a
00:05:58great recipe to sort of be able to learn
00:05:59because one egg 100 grams of flour any
00:06:02raving idiot in the whole wide world
00:06:05can remember that I can rap boys how do
00:06:11you make that posture how much aid
00:06:16you’re just playing it now you’ll just
00:06:18put your your you’re just playing the
00:06:19game 1 8 100 grams of flour just can’t
00:06:23have a look at this we could have our
00:06:24little camera here if it’s any good I
00:06:26don’t know have a little look it’s gonna
00:06:30pull that out so literally the reason
00:06:33I’m showing you this is because if
00:06:35you’ve got a food processor or you can
00:06:36get busy with it
00:06:38in literally a minute you can come home
00:06:41to eggs 200 grams of flour you’ve got
00:06:44beautiful homemade pasta that cost
00:06:46literally nothing for you and your wife
00:06:48and you just not really need it around
00:06:50like a kid here just for 30 seconds and
00:06:54you’d come up with this lovely little
00:06:56ball like this any questions over there
00:06:59Liz a lot of interest about rat boy and
00:07:02his jumper okay but aside from that we
00:07:07had one saying what’s the weirdest thing
00:07:09you’ve ever cooked or eaten okay what is
00:07:12the weirdest thing I’ve ever cooked or
00:07:13eaten probably the weirdest thing I mean
00:07:17I haven’t in a lot of balls in my time
00:07:18bollocks
00:07:19I have eaten not bad if you trim them up
00:07:22and flour them or deep-fry them they can
00:07:24be very nice as they say in Wyoming
00:07:26Rocky Mountain Oysters very nice
00:07:29didn’t mind those when I was in Japan I
00:07:32did have a surprise with Cod semen yeah
00:07:38I thought it was chicken on a skewer it
00:07:41wasn’t it was Cod semen and when I
00:07:43chewed it it just went everywhere
00:07:46and that wasn’t great
00:07:49so generally I’m pretty good with
00:07:51everything anyway okay so that’s what
00:07:54we’ve got okay we’ve got this little
00:07:56dome it’s so simple honestly if you’re
00:07:59making it for two or four or six people
00:08:00and you’ve got a food processor we’re
00:08:02talking about two minutes all in right
00:08:04now what’s the closest you can get
00:08:06around here big boy do me to me this
00:08:08table yeah rat-boy can I have you I mean
00:08:11I don’t want to have you but can I have
00:08:12you

00:08:17going to come and demonstrate something
00:08:18very beautiful here not only his jumper
00:08:20can we just take that off because I
00:08:21think people actually want to see the

00:11:48for everyone he’s a beautiful thing okay
00:11:52let’s get on with this pasta so look in
00:11:54the real world and you guys can get your
00:11:57nice technically meal Taggart le I want
00:12:00to show you a platter that I’m really
00:12:01excited about
00:12:02we’ve got fast rolling boiling water
00:12:04here we’re going to put salt in it my
00:12:08wife often gets a little bit funny about
00:12:11putting the salt in but I try and
00:12:13explain to her not all the salt is going
00:12:14to go in your body is going to go down
00:12:16the sink okay but you want to season the
00:12:17water otherwise the past all tastes
00:12:19horrible I want to show you an uncooked
00:12:21sauce that I’m kind of excited about it
00:12:24kind of its history is rooted in
00:12:26Sicilian Italian cooking so what we’re
00:12:31going to do is take a microplane we’re
00:12:35going to get a lemon from somewhere over
00:12:37here
00:12:38there’s so much flavor in this list here
00:12:42and we don’t to waste it and you only
00:12:44have to like push that as this and you
00:12:46can see it getting shiny and that’s the
00:12:47oils and the fragrant coming out so I
00:12:50just want the zest of one lemon and I
00:12:54don’t know how close you can get but
00:12:55these little micro planes are brilliant
00:12:58for getting just the lovely fragrant
00:13:01part off and what we’re basically going
00:13:03to make is the glorified dressing so our
00:13:07fastest dressing and then we’ll take a
00:13:08few more questions the lemon juice goes
00:13:11in the juice of one lemon this would be
00:13:14enough source for that to people so even
00:13:17with the lemon and then we’re gonna add
00:13:21Parmesan cheese you could use a pecorino
00:13:23you could use any local cheese that has
00:13:26that same sort of dense saltiness that
00:13:28gives you the same sort of emotion when
00:13:30you grate it so we’re going to go in
00:13:31with the parmesan and you can blend
00:13:33cheese’s as well which is nice so just
00:13:36like a little handful there and then I’m
00:13:38going to add some olive oil now this
00:13:41will look like I’m putting a lot in it’s
00:13:43not it’s the smallest little thread of
00:13:44oil in the world it just doesn’t come
00:13:47out very fast so you’ve got about four
00:13:50tables of olive oil four tables four
00:13:53tablespoons of olive oil in there and
00:13:56we’re not going to season it yet because
00:13:57it might not
