If I had to give my opinion on Blumenthal, and his restaurant, The Fat Duck, it would require a four stage process of explanation.

>> No.13613759

His chili con carne recipe sucks. I can make better chili con carne. I'd challenge that pretentious cunt on live TV and win

I'm sure it's delicious, but who would do all of that other than maybe once in a lifetime?

>> No.13613928

His shit is so pretentious and missing the point. Taking an entire day to roast a chicken is an absolute joke.

Kek

>> No.13614155

I dont doubt the food is good but like, its so fuckin impractical for diminishing returns. Three michelin stars is one thing but none of his recipes can be copied realistically

Gas and electric arent free, I dont wanna cook my food 10 days in advance and pay stupid amounts on keeping an oven on for 3 days

>> No.13614176

I would never do any of his methods, but it's entertaining to watch different cooking methods/recipes for once to learn. Every other chef/cook prepare their foods almost the same way so Heston's a breath of fresh air.

>> No.13614182

Looks kinds dry on the inside desu, nothing keeping the bird from just drying out

He said himself this was for batch cooking 8 chickens at a time. Probs good with gravy, but you actually want your chicken to taste good alone
