For those who do not know Gary passed away in 2019 from a brain bleed whilst visiting family in Dubai UAE. There were quite a few young British chefs when Gary arrived on the scene and made my cooking a lot better than it would be otherwise. RIP Gary
I grew up working in restaurant kitchens, my Dad's in particular, surrounded by good chefs and cooks who cared about their craft. This is a truly excellent demonstration. And Gary is right - You do not salt eggs until the finish.
Tried Gary's method this morning and it's great. Even though you're are not with us any more Gary you are still helping us to appreciate the art of cooking and encouraging us to be the best we can. .... a sad loss to the culinary world.
This great man is the reason I got interested in cooking, his Rhodes around Britain cookbook was and still is amazing. We had the privilege of eating at Mezzanine when it first opened in Dubai. Still one of the very best meals I’ve ever eaten. He will be sadly missed
R.I.P GARY RHODES.YOU WONDERFUL TALENTED CHEF ..INFECTIOUS PERSONALITY AND OH SO HANDSOME❤ YOU WILL BE MISSED ..MY BLESSINGS GO OUT TO YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL FAMILY🙏😔❤
Massive shock and loss to British and World wide cuisine. He was one of the many who inspired me in my life as a chef. He will be missed. R. I. P Gary Rhoads the warm hearted gentleman.
How many chefs, drivers, maids...etc. died while you were writing that comment. He was just chef you knew as he is famous, that's all. RIP for Gary in any case.
A true loss to not just the culinary world but thee world in general. Absolute gent and a pioneer for many of the chefs that followed in his footsteps. RIP Gary you will be sadly missed but fondly remembered
grew up watching him in the 80s he was the first pioneering tv male chef we saw, his famous trade mark was his handsome looks and spiky hair, he was always very down to earth even in the 80s what a lovely soul he was .I didnt even know that he had moved to Dubai permanently until i heard he passed away RIP
Back in the day he had really cool spiky hair and a bubbly, enthusiastic personality. Above all he had a real passion for the dishes he cooked and that came across wonderfully. I have great memories of him on Ready, Steady, Cook in the early nineties which is curious because he's not listed as ever having been on the show. It's funny how your mind plays tricks on you. An all round gent and sadly missed...
Nick Savage,ure last name really suits you with the comment you made...although with ure first name, me thinks instead of NIck a P and an R should replace a couple of letters.You are one sick,sick puppy.
Haha! My dad "taught" me how to cook an omelette about 45 years ago. I've never ever got one to turn out right. Now I know why: my dad said mix the "contents' (cheese, tomato, etc.) and the salt in with the eggs *and milk* in the bowl, then pour it all into the pan together and do not disturb it until it's set. About as opposite as it's possible to be! Tomorrow, I will eat omelettes until I burst.
Many restaurants do it like your dad (without the milk), and just leave it on low heat for a few minutes before putting it under a salamander for anothe few minutes. It's not a french omelet, but put some potatoes in it and you have a spanish Tortilla.
With no offence meant to the departed (RIP; i hv watched sm greats, and Mr Rhodes stands out amongst them both for his skills and attitude. Who likes a stuffed shirt, shouting bull, never mind the skills!) or to any living legend to newbies like me, there is absolutely nothing wrong to either adding salt early, or to adding a dash of milk, or to adding tomato early; i do that and still get similar results. 😊 Ummmm....more than one way to skin a cat, eh?
Amen to that. Gary Rhodes' new British classics and the complete cookery year are the the most well thumbed books in my kitchen. RIP mate. A real inspiration.
@@Beauto093 idk, some people were saying he died, well, most people in the comments. im just believing it because so many people said it but im not sure- i probably shouldnt have believed it so quickly
Always loved watching Gary Rhodes as a child especially how he'd present or taste desserts 🍨. This is getting the best out of the simplest most basic foods. I'll miss him a lot..as he was all down to earth and likeable, loved his spike hair too! RIP
