![]() https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...er-against-him Too funny in the Guardian today, bet the idiot didn't see it coming. My Spanish cousin-in-law when teaching me how to make paella, said 'never sausage, of any sort' lol I mentioned it because I saw Martha Stewart put chorizo in it. |

I have only had paella once. That was about 20 years ago and I am pretty sure it had chicken and sausage. I searched for recipes on line and a lot of them called for sausage. It seems that it was originally a seasonal region dish unique to Valencia, where it was made with seafood, but it has spread to other regions of Spain where they add meat and sausage. It looks like The Guardian is trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. Online comments can get silly. |

You must be thinking Daily Mail, News of the World some papers like that, Guardian is a well respected paper. Yes, it has problems now, as do all newspapers, I also read the London Daily Telegraph and it is not the paper it was a few years ago. They don't need to slam him, he is heartily disliked in the UK, partly the reason he spent nearly a year over here. |

Julia Child was a definite exception for me though. She was always just herself, which goes a long way with me. |

He's just one of many irritating TV chefs. The last time I watched him, he was trying to introduce healthier food in American schools, which was like teaching Arabs about human rights. |

IMO I think he was trying to introduce *himself* more than anything else. That sort of approach does come across as rather sanctimonious. If he was really serious about improving the American diet, he should develop a virus that kills corn. |

Wasn't that in the English schools, the school lunches? I've never seen him cooking and can't say I'd be interested to either. You can pretty well guarantee that when he campaigns for something, it appears good but the benefit is to him. |

They're all irritating prima donnas. I find Gordon Ramsay and Nigella Lawson, for instance, just as irritating. Or Marco Pierre White... brrr. He's got such a big ego, he's barely able to speak to mortals anymore. Soon he'll only communicate using simple head and hand gestures. |

Paella is a Spanish dish and seafood didn't travel very far from the coast before the advent of refrigeration. One typical non-seafood paella is chicken and sausage, so Jamie isn't breaking new ground. You can also find vegetarian versions of paella. http://www.spain-recipes.com/paellarecipes.html -- Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them. |

For some reason, they reported only the negative aspects. |
