I think that there are a lot of great cooking shows out there. You just have to remember that these shows are geared to the general public, not to chefs. As such they have to be entertaining as well as informative, though many people love food and cooking not many are as passionate as we are. They ones named above are all great shows. Julia, Jacques, the Great Chefs, but to that list I would have to add, TASTE (a great show that spends 1/2 hr on one food item), East Meets West (I thing Ming Tsai is a very talented chef), and Good Eats (a very humorous approach to the techniqcalities of cooking) Also do you know that Food TV has brought back Julia's orignal series along with the Galloping Gourmet (a scary look into our culinary history Ha Ha). |
