Do you like cooking shows? Do you think they could be more non-pro cook friendly?
I like cooking shows. I don't love them, though. Here's why:
I was watching Jaques Pepin once and he showed how to de-bone a chicken for a dish he was going to show us. He raced through it and then cooked the dish and 3 or 4 other things. So I bought the cook book. And there was the recipe, just exactly like it was on the show with no where in the book a syllable about the hardest part: deboning the chicken! He de-boned it whole, which was the tricky part.
Don't you wish that shows took into consideration that we are not 40 year cooking professionals? That sharp as we keep our knives they probably aren't the razors the chefs use, so we dice and carve and so forth slightly slower than they do? Wouldn't it be nice if they took a LITTLE more time so we could absorb better what they're showing us?
Or maybe I am just a big dummy, ala Redd Foxx. Am I?
I definitely don't think you're a dummy. I think there are different shows for different levels. When I need to learn an elementary step with a new food, I tend to watch Alton Brown's Good Eats or Racheal Ray, someone like that, but if a chef is cooking something that I either already have cooked or I never will (certain expensive seafoods and some ethnic dishes for example) then I watch a more pro-cook type show where half of it is going over my head, but I can still imagine the flavors.
