But portion sizes are another thing. I think food bloggers should speak up on it and hold cookbook authors to account.

So what he says generally goes. I've made quite a few of his dishes out of the "Kitchen Heaven" book he put out after his TV series. The chocolate of toffee fondant recipe was indulgent to say the least. I what i thought was enough for 4 people, and soon realised that even I (he of the iron gut) would battle to get through a third. I pity the supermodel to tackle a full serving of that dessert... So i guess it goes both ways. Must say I’m a bit of a Gordon Ramsey fan… So what he says generally goes.

I reckon recipe mistakes should be a regular blog event. I love clafoutis and must try it. I reckon recipe mistakes should be a regular blog event.

I've never tasted anything so salty! I usually find things go wrong when I don't exercise my better judgement. For example - I cooked a Delia Smith apple crumble the other week and the spice mix was loaded with ground clove and I actually thought ... 'that's rather a lot' but went ahead ... it was rather hot and spicy! As for Gordon Ramsay - I haven't cooked enough of his stuff to have an opinion but his cherry clafoutis, using almond meal, is fantastic!

I am so with you on this. It has led me to NEVER cook anything for company out of AGT, for example, without a dummy run first. A few months back they had a 'perfect scrambled egg' recipe, serves 12, with 2 eggs in the ingredients list. Yeah, right. Serves 12 what? Supermodels? Quelle horreur! I am so with you on this.
