Don't miss new property show, Phil Spencer Secret Agent, only on LifeStyle this month.
In his first pure cookery series for over a decade Raymond Blanc teaches home cooks how to elevate their dishes from the ordinary to the sublime, step-by-step. For Raymond, making a dish work is about simplicity. In his restaurant the perfect tomato salad sits comfortably next to an elaborate dish of turbot with oyster and wasabi beurre blanc. Each element of the most impressive dish is simple but knowing how to combine them is what turns a dish into something extraordinary.
In this series, Raymond demystifies the tricks of haute cuisine. He shows the secret techniques of creating food that will impress without the need for elaborate ingredients or equipment and encourages us to cast off our inhibitions and be creative and enthusiastic.
Set against the dynamic backdrop of Raymond’s working kitchen, each episode features a key ingredient which Raymond shows can be used in different dishes from the simple to sophisticate. From chocolate, fish, eggs and tomatoes, Raymond shares his insider knowledge, offers tips on spotting and selecting the very best ingredients, shows how to correct common mistakes and most importantly, how to turn simple ingredients into show-stopping food.

In this episode Raymond shares his love of the art of charcuterie cooked or preserved meats. To begin, wafer thin slices of duck ham cured in herbs and juniper berries are joined by crispy lardons to create a delicious dish packed with crunch and flavour.

Adam!
Hello all, I'm from Bloomsbury, Raymond's publisher. We are publishing the book of both series of the show, with all recipes included and more, in May 2011. Kitchen Secrets will have lots of hints, explanations and variations on his recipes from Raymond.
I really like show.how do we get the recipes?
brillliant show, finally someone who is not afraid to show us mere mortals how to make fantastic dishes at home - will watch him over other chefs any day. Wish he would produce a DVD!!!!
love the show!!!
His way of teaching cooking is very clear. Just saw how he made the bread. Can we get the recipes? Thx.
I too can watch him all night. At least you learn from his methods not like the other lifestyle shows where it's either a race to finish so not much is learned or it's those boring Cake Boss or the other Cake show where the end result is wonderful but they never give you the recipes of the cakes or show you how the icing is made and how it's stabilised. Take them off and put more of Raymond Blanc please.
FANTASTIC!!
Great shoe.how do we get the recipes?
Please Please put the recipes on the website urgently I want to make the chocolate mousse and the chocolate delice tart. Yum Yum
