Months ago, the Plonker Club reported that Gordon ramsay would be hosting his own Cookalong Live show in the US, Gordon Ramsay has now confirmed this in a recent interview and also talked about another new cooking special he will be shooting in May.
Here is a direct quote from Gordon Ramsay when asked about the new show
Gordon Ramsay “Yes, of course. First of all, I have to say, cooking in Hell’s Kitchen is like a live scenario anyway. The producers are constantly chasing my butt saying, “We would like to see this.” I’m saying, “What would you like to see?”
I’m not interested. All I want to see is food on a plate. I can’t script a service. I don’t know how early or late the customer’s going to turn up, so everything is very natural. So in that sense we cook live.
The live cook along, yes, it has been picked up and it’s going to be a huge excitement. I can’t wait to go live. I suppose the frustration is the sort of cooking shows on air currently that don’t cook.
It’s one that was prepped earlier by some home economist behind the scenes and that’s not cooking. Cooking is a passion and it’s live and it’s really nice to show that journey from a raw ingredient to an hour later something finished. And for me the confidence levels go up tenfold, a 1000%, because you’re following it and it’s changing its texture and the flavor’s getting better and you get more and more confident as you start with a raw ingredient. So, I’m really excited that Fox is excited about the live show and it’s something I can’t wait for.
No cursing, that’s the deal. So I’m fucked.”
Gordon Ramsay’s other show, was also brought up in a later question – again here is a quote
Gordon Ramsay: “So I have a huge excitement this May on visiting India for the first time in my career and I’m going on a journey, because I’m going to the region, I’m backpacking and I suppose I want to come down two or three divisions and sort of get to the heart of the food of the people.
And it’s called Gordon Ramsay’s Great Escape and I’m really excited about it because it’s being left in a situation along with sort of …, but going a little bit deeper into the sort of cult social following and where it started, and looking at the beginning, the heartbeat of how that dish was formulated. And to what’s happened, to how many people have abused it along the way to where we are now. So yes, always learning; constantly.”
These comments were part of a much larger interview which can be flouond at http://www.monstersandcritics.com/smallscreen/features/article_1456611.php/Hells_Kitchens_Gordon_Ramsay_the_full_interview
