Jamie Oliver is embracing the world of podcasting!!! (have just been on his website)
Perhaps there could be a 'Cuisine from Spain' edition in the pipeline???

Wow, that would be great. I love Jamie Oliver and his Italian projects. Italian food is just so delicious. If only someone could persuade him to embrace Spanish cuisine as well!

Great!!! It's a pitty that his shows aren't aired anymore in Latin America cable.
Could you post the URL so we can download his podcasts?

I'm sure Marina could give Jamie some Spanish cookery tips!
I have just joined the forum.Should I mention this website or would that be considered as spam?

[Marina]

I should also have a proper look into his webpage.
I've heard lots about Jaime Oliver and seen his books in English book shops but even if I have my shelves full of both Spanish and English cookery books I haven't got any of his yet... maybe I will treat myself to one while I'm in England. Instead I have lots of Nigel Slater's, which I really recommend as his recipies never let you down and even some of Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall (please don't ask me to pronounce that:D:D) but I'd recommend more his dvd programs than his books - unless you have a farm most of the book will be of no use but the programs are hilarius.;)

Sorry Celia,
I forgot to add that Ben has already added the link here, but I'm not very sure if you meant that;)

[Edith]

Marina, one of my favorites is Jamie Oliver's Italy. I'm sure you will love many of the Mediterranean ingredients in this book!

The thing I like about Jamie Oliver is the fact that he uses pure, simple and tasty ingredients. He doesn't fuss about with his food like some chefs do, and what you see is what you get. For example, Gary Rhodes may be a charming guy - he really is - but in my opinion he's more of a sculptor than a chef. :D

De acuerdo! It looks like a Christmas wreath, very colourful and festive.

And this kind of salad (rucola) is very tasty.

Eso va sin decir. :)

Me gusta mucho con un buen aceite de oliva y un vinagre balsámico, y con queso y tomates secados al sol como en la foto. No sé que son los hilos rojos, pero tienen muy buena tinta.

¿Remolachas? o ¿Pimientos en aceite?

[Edith]

¿Remolachas? o ¿Pimientos en aceite?

Sí, pimientos me parecen probable. El color es idéntico.

[Marina]

Yo creía que era remolacha.

Por cierto Edith en este caso diriamos "buena pinta". "Buena tinta" también se usa pero para indicar que te has enterado de algo y que la fuente es fiable. Podrias decir: "Se de buena tinta que Antonio se acaba de divorciar" (si por ejemplo te ha dado la noticia su propia hermana)

Ah sí, tienes razón, por supuesto es 'buena pinta'! Ni siquiera conocí la expresión 'de buena tinta', fue un error de mi parte. :D :D :D

Pero parece que la ensalada sería buena con un "tinto bueno," tambien. ;)

¡Sin duda! :D

For Jaime´s recipies you should find many on www.foodtv.com (http://www.foodtv.com) It´s a US network...go figure 24-7 about food!

[Marina]

Thanks!!! I'll be having a proprer look at that later tonight.
By the way Edith I bought Jamie's Italian book when I was in England a couple of weeks ago... but I haven't cooked any of his recipes yet.... I'll let you know how it goes.;)
