Yes, he may be a brilliant cook / chef but is it really necessary, in the light of that, for the appalling language! That spoils whatever is good about his skills, I am usually very quick in changing channels and I don’t hear much about his cooking expertise! I reckon he needs one of these:
I’ve worked in factories where people, usually men in those days, swear but he beats them two or three times over!
It’s also very strange, from what I have seen, not one of the other chefs on TV cookery programmes swears like he does. I won’t go on to name them all but there are many, both males and females.
Yes @Minx, that must have been very difficult for you to resist!
I have had American bacon in many hotels and restaurants in the USA.
The rashers are very small, very narrow, and very thin. They actually taste quite good but you need three to four times as many rashers as over here to make a bacon butty. Because the rashers are so thin, they lend themselves to making crispy bacon.
If you are in the USA, don’t be fooled by the term, Canadian bacon. It didn’t originate in Canada, and it isn’t it bacon. It’s more like gammon.
A bit like an English muffin in America didn’t originate in England, and isn’t a muffin. It’s more like a breakfast cake, not bread.
I can vouch for the fact that Canada has some very nice “proper” bacon.
We’ve been buying from Portuguese delis for as long as I can remember, but there must be suppliers from a dozen other countries that will serve similar.
Thanks d00d, that looks rather like streaky bacon and I much prefer unsmoked back bacon. I have found that the dry cured is far better in that it doesn’t leave all that white liquid in the frying pan. No added water to that kind I guess is the reason. Fortunately I eat very little bacon, a fry-up probably once every three of four weeks, if that. The occasional bacon sarnie or bacon roll very couple of weeks and that’s it for fried foods.
We treated ourselves to a seaside breakfast this morning, I think it had it all
Really good value too, £6.50 including the orange juice and tea. We could have had scrambled or poached eggs instead of fried and toast instead of fried bread
