Some of the recipes require equipment I don’t have in my small apartment so I’ll have to invest and also borrow what I can from friends. I think that’s pretty good going seeing as the class just came out recently. So far I’ve only made one of Gordon’s recipes from this masterclass. Gordon makes a real theatre out of food and education. It was like art, poetry in motion, I was hypnotised and couldn’t turn away. I watched all the videos through once without actually making anything or following along.
When you’re chopping or boiling or following along with him in the kitchen, it’s so easy to lose yourself and fantasise about quitting your day job and becoming a full time chef ready to take on the world in search of Michelin stars, reality tv shows, and, of course, a bunch of grateful people with full bellies. Gordon’s passion and energy is incredible.
No messing around, no beginner stuff ( though a beginner like me could follow along), it’s just straight into the knowledge, practical hands-on – and you realise THIS truly is a MASTER class. In short, it’s about taking your cooking to places you didn’t think it could go.įirst lesson in and it’s straight down to business.
