hi welcome Jenny Alava live from London
it’s a beautiful day it’s about 6
o’clock ish work was time 6:30 is in
England and it’s lovely beaming out to
the whole wide world we are cooking in
my Test Kitchen
I have pans on full of water but there’s
nothing happening inside them yet we
have three cameras today we have a
lovely mat here holding that camera then
we have rat boy Matt shoot rat boy
there’s black boy wave at man listen
look at you isn’t he cute he’s on that
camera lets out that camera I knocked
off wide shot and then we have this
little shot here which is our closed up
shop which would probably be a bit
rubbish but I’ll do my best
anyway we are celebrating lots of things
cooking simple cooking today we’re going
to be taking questions from Twitter so
if you want to ask questions you can ask
live just do that funny little hash
button what you call it hashtag hashtag
of Jaime hashtag ask Jamie you know it
makes sense okay so ask any questions
and I’ll be rapping out over here we
have the lovely Liz she’ll be asking
questions over there we have Richard you
might have seen him on Crimewatch before
and then there’s Louise next just a
quick and don’t sound too long because
she doesn’t like getting fit who she
what absolutely yes
if you remember last week she was sacked
live on air I’ve given her job back I’m
happy about that and that is because I’m
a generous kind of person okay anyway
lots of different stuff today any
questions to kick off with lovely Liz
yeah we’ve got our docks Sydney asking
can you ride tandem what can I ride
tandem no next question is what do we
might tap lose this week
oh that’s good we have sound Jubilee is
asking when did you first learn to cook
okay I learnt to cook when I was about
eight years old I grew up in a pub
restaurant in Essex and basically when I
went downstairs there was my seven
shifts I was started off in the
wash up to obscure I bin and peel in bed
and then eventually I got a job
with the big boys and that was great yes
so eight years old and now my little
girl Daisy she’s starting to cook
already the other ones not interested
but Daisy she loves it so either
chopping to the weekend
next one Bubba Sheva or Sheva Shepherd
is asking what do you pack for your kids
hunch nothing they have a hot meal at
school which is pretty good yes or no
pad lunches although I’ve got nothing
against pack lunches they can be very
good although about 75% of pack lunches
are worse than the worst school lunches
I’ve seen terrible things in pet lunches
I mean you wouldn’t believe I’ve seen
larger kids going to school with cold
leftover fast food burgers just tins of
energy drinks that the funniest not way
it’s not funny sad really the last pad
lunch that took my breath away was a
whole pack lunchbox just full of just
brownies it was like my wife’s idea of
heaven apart from that was this child’s
lunch but there he goes and shall I
introduce a bit cooking is well okay so
I’m gonna do I didn’t I kind of made up
what we were going to cook not so long
ago I wanna do a really quick and pasta
dish if there’s any any good questions
coming in Luis just interrupt me no
worries so we’ve got regular pasta here
obviously you guys have all got this
kind of stuff so you all know how to
cook it you just follow the pack
instructions I’ve got some boiling
salted water I wanted to kind of just
you know this stuff right and of course
you can use this stuff I wanted to show
you a little birthday present that I got
the other day from my mentor Gennaro
Contaldo rat-boy if you could come down
here my darling if we had budget which
we don’t we’d have some nice music now
rat-boy please come on wrap boys out
runner how old are you boy 14 years old
just look at him any lovely
eight years eight years look at that
jumper closer for that jumper will you
be proud if that was your boy nice house
to get how’s your love life at the
moment
non-existent okay people are asking boy
is single rat boy only single very very
single okay so rapid I don’t get too
comfortable here because I think the
public like you that’s my immediate
reaction Twitter’s going hot for you
okay just come over here mister mister
mister then you get over here or you got
a wire okay let me come to you so you
might be thinking what is Oliver doing
this is a birthday prison and you might
be thinking what is that bottle opener
it’s not this is basically rap boy
where’s my diet so what we got here this
is from Gennaro
basically this is dies here and you can
see each end has a slightly different
end you can get these online and email
you know I think they’re about sort of
full equals 50 quid I’m not expecting
everyone in the world to have one of
course I just thought it’s quite cool to
have a look you’ve got tagliatelle there
you’ve got a spaghetti there and you can
basically do like a little rigatoni
there it’s really cool it’s a brilliant
birthday present if you’ve got a friend
or a boy thank you friend that likes to
cook and you don’t know what to get them
and this is what Gennaro did and you put
the different ends on it and then why
thought I do is just show you how damn
simple it is to make pasta I’ll do it
super quick with one egg and 100 grams
of flour so I just got that they call it
tipo Giro zero which is basically how
fine you can see that’s like fine like
talcum powder white it up and you can do
it in a bowl with a fork but you
literally want it up it will come
together it will start cleaning the side
of the board and then you can just sort
of need it but it’s so quick but it’s a
great recipe to sort of be able to learn
because one egg 100 grams of flour any
raving idiot in the whole wide world
can remember that I can rap boys how do
you make that posture how much aid
you’re just playing it now you’ll just
put your your you’re just playing the
game 1 8 100 grams of flour just can’t
have a look at this we could have our
little camera here if it’s any good I
don’t know have a little look it’s gonna
pull that out so literally the reason
I’m showing you this is because if
you’ve got a food processor or you can
get busy with it
in literally a minute you can come home
to eggs 200 grams of flour you’ve got
beautiful homemade pasta that cost
literally nothing for you and your wife
and you just not really need it around
like a kid here just for 30 seconds and
you’d come up with this lovely little
ball like this any questions over there
Liz a lot of interest about rat boy and
his jumper okay but aside from that we
had one saying what’s the weirdest thing
you’ve ever cooked or eaten okay what is
the weirdest thing I’ve ever cooked or
eaten probably the weirdest thing I mean
I haven’t in a lot of balls in my time
bollocks
I have eaten not bad if you trim them up
and flour them or deep-fry them they can
be very nice as they say in Wyoming
Rocky Mountain Oysters very nice
didn’t mind those when I was in Japan I
did have a surprise with Cod semen yeah
I thought it was chicken on a skewer it
wasn’t it was Cod semen and when I
chewed it it just went everywhere
and that wasn’t great
so generally I’m pretty good with
everything anyway okay so that’s what
we’ve got okay we’ve got this little
dome it’s so simple honestly if you’re
making it for two or four or six people
and you’ve got a food processor we’re
talking about two minutes all in right
now what’s the closest you can get
around here big boy do me to me this
table yeah rat-boy can I have you I mean
I don’t want to have you but can I have
you
okay over here right way so rat-boy is
going to come and demonstrate something
very beautiful here not only his jumper
can we just take that off because I
think people actually want to see the
parrot thrown away need to get the
jumper really which mean unnamed this is
the web you can say what you like top
man
Wow so to the designer at top man when
was this oh it is okay which is a
generic jump so someone printed that god
bless you may be a parent lover so if
you’ve got to straddle that rat boy okay
so we have the dough okay and then what
rat boy is going to do is he’s going to
open this up and story now and we’re
gonna push this pass from here we’ve got
close-up of that map so we put the pasta
in here we’ve got closed up big boy okay
we push that in and then rat boys very
good with wrenches and then we’re going
to extrude it now look of course I know
you guys haven’t got this jumper or this
piece of equipment at home but and then
I just hold it there at boy just hold it
there I know you have all this equipment
but you can roll it out of a rolling pin
and cut it up with a knife or let’s be
really honest the recipe I’m gonna show
you you can fish these dry pasta but I
wanna I want to show you my birthday
present and it’s kind of cool now I’m
just gonna put a little flour into here
right and we’re gonna receive we’re
gonna receive rat-boy so okay we gotta
cook that you get down here you can’t
get any closer that’s such a limitation
how about this does this go a long way I
see it how long can this go yeah let’s
see we love a bit of live broadcast
we’re really good at this
we’re only playing with this guy’s it’s
Minos okay you just not a technology
record think about this constant think
about the kind of movies that you could
make at home
was that jumper I think you’re wrong
your jumpers gonna cause a revolution in
America okay
go rat boy yeah so as you can see
the muscular man he is can you sing that
rich Richard can you see it okay is that
is that too close okay so we wrap away
on receiving rat-boy and these make
beautiful fettuccine what Tapani aleni
whichever you want to call it are you
happy record is this your finest moment
yes it’s nice my finest hour okay I’m a
pastor bless you
how does it feel okay well there’s
always a first time
okay so we’ve got the pastor coming out
you heard a little noise in the
background that was Louise there moving
on okay so we’ve got the pasta anyway I
just think that’s a wicked little
birthday present thank you very much
dinero I love you you’re the best we’ve
got homemade and pastor there if you
want one of these pasta machines you can
get them online the brand is called I
don’t know I will find out and I’ll put
it on the brand is called
oh my lord boo teeny Bo TT en e I know
you can get it online because Gennaro
did thank you rat boy relevance Brett
for everyone he’s a beautiful thing okay
let’s get on with this pasta so look in
the real world and you guys can get your
nice technically meal Taggart le I want
to show you a platter that I’m really
excited about
we’ve got fast rolling boiling water
here we’re going to put salt in it my
wife often gets a little bit funny about
putting the salt in but I try and
explain to her not all the salt is going
to go in your body is going to go down
the sink okay but you want to season the
water otherwise the past all tastes
horrible I want to show you an uncooked
sauce that I’m kind of excited about it
kind of its history is rooted in
Sicilian Italian cooking so what we’re
going to do is take a microplane we’re
going to get a lemon from somewhere over
here
there’s so much flavor in this list here
and we don’t to waste it and you only
have to like push that as this and you
can see it getting shiny and that’s the
oils and the fragrant coming out so I
just want the zest of one lemon and I
don’t know how close you can get but
these little micro planes are brilliant
for getting just the lovely fragrant
part off and what we’re basically going
to make is the glorified dressing so our
fastest dressing and then we’ll take a
few more questions the lemon juice goes
in the juice of one lemon this would be
enough source for that to people so even
with the lemon and then we’re gonna add
Parmesan cheese you could use a pecorino
you could use any local cheese that has
that same sort of dense saltiness that
gives you the same sort of emotion when
you grate it so we’re going to go in
with the parmesan and you can blend
cheese’s as well which is nice so just
like a little handful there and then I’m
going to add some olive oil now this
will look like I’m putting a lot in it’s
not it’s the smallest little thread of
oil in the world it just doesn’t come
out very fast so you’ve got about four
tables of olive oil four tables four
tablespoons of olive oil in there and
we’re not going to season it yet because
it might not
