How many times have you seen someone on FN make a flank steak or a London broil and advise cutting it across the grain? For that matter, how many times did it take you to figure out you *should* have cut that steak the other way?<\/p>\n<p>Did I learn anything? Yes. I haven&#8217;t been brave enough to make pate a choux and now I know you need to stir it like a crazy person to ensure it comes together the right way.<\/p>\n<p>Will I watch it again? Sure, I&#8217;ll give it an epi or two more and then it&#8217;ll probably lose its place on the Season Pass list.<\/p>\n<p>What show did I actually find worse? Nigella Express. The whole Nigella thing is about food as sex&#8230; it&#8217;s a sensuous, langorous, &#8220;I-am-a-goddess-and-a-domestic-one-at-that&#8221; exercise. Nigella Express is just a case of coitus interrruptus. Corner cutting without the satisfaction.
