So we've been watching this set of food videos, from "Chef John", called food wishes. He has an engaging manner (lots of jokes) and focuses on simplified, easy-to-make versions of recipes from a whole assortment of cuisines. He kinda reminds us of the Fruge, before ... well, before the reason we all stopped watching the Fruge. http://foodwishes.blogspot.com/

I like Chef John. I watch his videos occasionally and follow his blog. But there is something about his voice... or his manner. I am not sure what it is, but it puts me off. His food / ratios are solid though. He has been around a long time and he has a vast archive.

Lisa, We did his Persian Rice last night. This is possibly the best simple recipe I've run across all year; it really simplifies what, in Diguid's cookbook, is a 3-page set of instructions down to 6 ingredients with no measurements. http://foodwishes.blogspot.com/2014/12/ ... -cups.html

--Lisa I agree, Lisa, watching the video I noted his unusual voice and that the cadence is off. I'd have trouble listening for very long.

Linda, Lisa:
Wierd, because the delivery is one of the things we like about him. It's lighthearted and cheerful.

I’m in the can’t watch him category. On the other hand, I could just listen to binging with babish all day.

Paul,
Whereas Babish drives me up a wall.
Maybe this is related to who you watched on TV as a kid?

I didn't have/watch TV as a kid, so can't be that particular vector. This is probably related to intuition and first impression stuff, which is a fairly fascinating area of study.
