Raymond Blanc: How to Cook Well
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b036zkh2
Raymond Blanc believes becoming a good cook is all about mastering the basic techniques. Each episode he takes a cooking technique and shows how it can be used.
Michelin-starred chef and restaurateur Raymond Blanc returns to BBC Two this summer with a new series, Raymond Blanc: How To Cook Well, that gives viewers a masterclass in basic cooking techniques.
Over six weeks, Raymond will show viewers how to master essential cooking skills, including roasting, poaching, frying, slow cooking, baking and barbeque and grilling.
Each programme will showcase five delicious dishes that are created using one of these techniques. The five dishes range from straightforward to restaurant standard.
Raymond will bring all his passion, curiosity and expertise to the series as he shows the audience what happens when you use each technique. Each dish in the series will further the viewers’ understanding of a particular technique. Raymond believes that if you master these basic skills then cooking becomes simple.
There will also be elements of surprise in each show. For instance, he shows that baking isn’t restricted to bread and cakes – it’s a technique which can apply to meat, fruit, seafood and even cheese. The dishes will be a delight, but there will be absolute clarity about the method used to create them, and each episode will inspire viewers and give them the tools they need to become better cooks.
Raymond Blanc taught himself to cook in his own professional kitchen, now he will teach us.
Raymond Blanc said: “I'm very excited to be able to pass on my knowledge and expertise to help the nation become better cooks. By mastering these basic techniques anyone can learn how to cook well.”
Tanya Shaw, Commissioning Executive for the BBC, said: “There is no-one better than Raymond to take viewers back to the basics of cooking and enthuse them with his passion for food. His culinary knowledge is extraordinary, and who better than a double Michelin-starred chef to teach viewers how to cook incredible dishes.”
Alan Brown, Creative Director at Chocolate Media, said: “Raymond’s infectious enthusiasm for food and his passion to get us cooking makes him the best teacher you could wish to have.”
Raymond Blanc: How to Cook Well is produced by Chocolate Media (part of NBC Universal International TV Production). The executive producers are Alan Brown and Charlotte Reid; the BBC executive producer is Tanya Shaw.
