Zu Gast bei Sprachfetzen: Headchef Tom Green
Heute zu Gast bei Sprachfetzen: Tommy Green, der junge, wilde Chefkoch des Restaurants “Riverstation” in Bristol.
Nach seiner Lehre beim Meisterkoch Michael Caines, bereiste Tom für 2 Jahre die Welt und brachte unter anderem Anregungen und Einflüsse aus der Indonesischen und Australischen Küche mit. Der global-kulinarische Einfluß gemischt mit der organisch-lokalen Basis ergibt leckerste Gerichte, die ihresgleichen in England suchen.
Tom stellt bei Sprachfetzen - und nur hier! - eines seiner Rezepte vor:
Roast fillet of cod with crushed herb potatoes, shellfish nage and new seasons vegetables
This dish can be juggled around to use any kind of fish or vegetables, other great fish to use in the dish could be Sea Bass, Dorade, Pollock or John Dory. Any shellfish can be substituted for the ones in this recipe, also different vegetables could be used e.g. asparagus, green beans, mange tout, anything with a bright colour and fresh flavour. We use these vegetables as they have just come into season and we can get hold of them on a regular basis. This dish is best served in a bowl style, to contain the very light nage (sauce).

Und natürlich beantwortete Tom auch die beiden Fragen was bzw. was er nicht an England mag:
What I like about England
I have to say after getting back a year ago from travelling Asia and Australia for 18 months, there is not a lot that makes me want to live in England. I like having my family and friends close by and I like the history and beautiful country side, that we have. I do not think that I will stay living in England for the rest of my life as my heart lies elsewhere.
What I dislike about England
I dislike the lack of food culture and understanding of produce; when you compare the English to the rest of Europe and their love of fresh produce, it is unbelievable that the English are so uneducated. The grey weather, is always a downer and that is what I miss the most about my travels, the sun and the blue skies. I also dislike the fact that everyone in England (including myself) seems like they’re in such a bloody hurry all the time, trying to do everything as quickly as they can; I much prefer a culture where family time is as important as working hard, such as the Italian culture.

Und damit vielen Dank an meine 3 Gäste aus den letzten 3 Tagen. Sprachfetzen macht Pause - es geht weiter am Montag, den 5. Mai
