This is from today's InfoBeat News. It is indeed a tribute to my Irish heritage to know that we are secure in our claim to being the world's second worst cuisine. :) UK TV cook gets roasting for how to boil egg show LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's leading television chef was in hot water Tuesday for teaching the nation's notoriously bad cooks how to boil an egg. Delia Smith, Britain's best-selling cookery writer and dispenser of motherly wisdom in the kitchen for more than 20 years, has also been given a roasting for giving TV viewers detailed instructions on how to make toast. Gary Rhodes, spiky-haired rival chef, slammed Smith's back to basics TV program as "offensive and insulting to people's intelligence." Rhodes, 38, whose culinary style is more brulee than boiled, said; "I don't need to be shown what boiling water looks like and I think that the rest of the population don't need to be shown it either. I really don't believe that the majority of people cannot boil an egg." With apologies to our Britannic Bretheren.
