Through Twitter I found Jamie Oliver’s web site this weekend. Thanks to Andy the Gas Man (whoever he is?) we had a pretty good dinner last night.

The thing I love most about his recipes is the language he uses. There’s nothing in the main text about 25ml of this or 2 cups of that. He has knobs of butter, and roughly cut this and that and lugs of stuff. It’s more than just wonderful language. It gives the user (in this case me) the freedom to interpret what a knob and a lug are. I am aware there may possibly be official measures for these terms, but right now I don’t know them, and I love that.

There certainly is a little of me in each of his recipes.
