Re: Ask me a cooking question
Dear Jamiei like your way of cooking and your recipes, and I have all of your cookery books, but.....when I am searching for a recipe in the index, why do you have to name them "awesome spinach and riccota cannelloni" or "the best......" or, a winner "Andy the Gasman's stew..." It makes searching a bit difficult. I think my favourite is "scrumptious Spanish chickpea and chorizo soup" Like wow man!!! Come on, name them properly!! ![]()

Re: Ask me a cooking question
Hi,
Im looking for a complete career change from being a barber for the last 10 years! I really want to learn about pastry. I enjoy cooking and making my own bread. I intend to register with Westminster College next September to start a course. In the mean time I would like some experience of working in a kitchen. Im 31 years old but very determined and a hard worker. I dont mind starting at the bottom and working my way up. I just love learning new things. Will someone out there offer me a job please?!
Regards
Rich

Re: Ask me a cooking question
Hi Jamie,
I wanted to thank you for all your fabulous recipes. I'm Italian and I really appreciate the fact that you are promoting the Italian cooking and love for food.
I leave in Amsterdam right know and I wanted to know if you are planning to come here and do some workshop. I also want to try your restaurant!!!
You should come here and teach how to cook especially in the school where the kids eat junk food everyday....
I hope to see you at your restaurant here in Amsterdam, my daughter is also a big fun of you!!!!
Ciao!!!

Re: Ask me a cooking question
Hi Jamie or who is answering the emails
I have learnt so much off Jamie - I am half Italian but I live in Queensland Australia and I have so many recipes books of jamies and have been very lucky to have gone to jamies' restaurant when I was in London - I have always loved cooking but you have inspired me heaps more I learnt so much from you cooking on TV - I love the way you try to get healthy food out to the world it is so important - but I now make my own spaghetti, pizzas, ciabatta bread and so many more of your recipes - You are the best and i appreciate how much you are helping so many people to eat better int he world - you need be awarded something special for trying to help the whole world to eat better.
I can not make mayonnaise - I have no idea what I am doing wrong but it always taste too oily for me and I wonder if it is because I am adding the oil to quickly but I need to perfect it and I am looking for a modern potato salad for my daughters 40th birthday which is held in our hot summer so something that looks cool so I am asking about mayonnaise and potato salad - saw your fennel salad tonight on your 15minute recipes with celery and mint and a full lemon put through the food processor - would this be the nicest fennel salad I can use for the same day - I am doing a nice green asian salad with carrot strips and capsicum strips and mint and coriander with sesame seeds cooked on the top this is one salad I am doing on the day another is an Italian with tomatoes and boccini cheese with balsamic vinegar, next salad I was hoping for a recipe from you for a potato salad, plus what other salad would you put with this meal - we will be having a good Aussie barbecue with grill prawns, steak and sausages as will be very hot here at the end of November.
I am trying to work out which salads go together>
Thanks again for all your help - I really do appreciate the help that is given.
Cheers
Robyn

Re: Ask me a cooking question
Hi Jamie!!!
Love all your hard work promoting people to eat healthy food!!! You are one in a million!!! I missed you coming to Queensland not sure how long I will have to wait again but I was not well when you were here but hope you are coming back.
I have a magi mix food processor - can I make a mayonnaise in this as making it by hand is too hard for me.
The easiest way to make a good mayonnaise - I whipped it up in a bowl and my arm ached so much as i am older and it got nice and thick after adding the oil but it still tasted to oily maybe I am adding the oil too quickly?
I love all your TV shows you are so down to earth that is what is so nice about you - no fuss - another thing that is great - I am 63 years old and I keep learning off you everytime I watch you - but I am also passionate about cooking!!! But I am only a home cook!!!
Cheers
Robyn

Re: Ask me a cooking question
Hi Robyn. Obviously I'm not Jamie. I make mayo in my Magimix. Using a whisk is too much like hard work
. Just make sure you add the oil drop by drop initially through the feed tube with the motor running and you should be fine.
Good luck ![]()
