cooking naked is both dangerous to him and unsanitary towards the people he's feeding
but I guess everybody needs a shtick
I think his recipe game is weak enough that I'd just suggest improvising instead - just throw some shit together with some spices and enjoy.
I feel like he’s a kind of modern-day Delia Smith. He has recipes for almost every meal you could think of but they tend to be quite basic and often not authentic - like the time he pissed off all of Spain with his ‘take’ on paella. He’s also said and done some really dumb things.
I’ve been given a couple of his cookbooks over the years but I think my mother-in-law has them at the moment and I’m not missing them.
I think his television appearances always make me wonder if there's spit in my food.
I also think his attempt to fix school lunches was well intentioned but tragically naive, and ended up doing more harm than good by making reform attempts look pathetic.
He's probably a great guy, but all I know is his TV personality so that is what I base my opinion on.
I like his simple recipes, I like his ideas.
So of my favorite dishes are from his hand, or one of his cronies.
