"Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Raymond the Blanc?"

It's funny how nowadays "home cook" Marco Pierre White does no longer care about the looks of his food but focuses entirely on the taste, while Raymond Blanc tells him in this video that his food always looked great but lacked taste. Really says a lot about where you're starting out from and where you eventually end up in the process.

@BenRover2961

yes because food originally since creation is all about taste and comfort. Modern times created this nonsense about how minimalistic and artsy it was, which is we Asians don't give af about extravagant presentation. There is no need to compensate for the taste. "if you don't like it, you don't eat". There's little to no tolerance when it comes to majority of Asian cuisine, especially south east asia. Not trashing the europe style, just explaining the practical and pragmatic mindset in a different part of the world.

@@BenRover2961 I guess it's a global phenomenon that due to social media everyone has to capture their flashy/fancy food on picture.

​@@BenRover2961I partially agree with you. But we Europeans also have a saying: the eye eats first. Presenting a food is crucial in making it appetizing. Not caring at all how the food looks is the territory of beasts, if animals. Animals don't care about presentation. But we are humans, we are above that. We are gifted consciousness and word. Food is life. You might as well try to enjoy it all the ways possible. I'm not talking about high class fancy shamncy stuff, I agree that is stupid, but, a basic level of presentation is crucial.

Raymond Blanc, the renowned French chef, was influenced and mentored by Fernand Point, who is often considered one of the greatest chefs of the 20th century.

This guy is like 1 of 7 culinary masters.

MPW is a lovely human being and one of the best chefs to ever grace us with his knowledge. That said, it's pretty obvious from this video and others that he was very much looking for a father figure and fatherly acceptance in Raymond Blanc.

Wow this is beautiful Marco in action in the early years

That was incredibly sweet

Pure genuine friendship between a master and his apprentice

Amazing video. Great find.

Thank you chef

This is as far back in the Gordonverse as you can get

Masters at work.

Marco is like a gastronomy philosopher

Even as an apprentice, Marco looks more of a boss man than Raymond, that's his charisma!

That bit about cooking being a lie, fuck I love it. I love how philosophical Blanc is about everything, he's being poetic without trying to do anything.

Raymond Blanc always seems such a genuinely kind and polite gentleman in every interview.

Marco, always with the most impeccable dialogue

Raymond is the man.

2 meticulous chefs ! 💟

The lighting fits the vibe for sure...very dramatic, sort of a police station/detective interrogation room scene with the shit flourescent overhead and the task lighting where the boys are working.

Masters.

this is fcking incredible, Raymond said the EXACT frase marco years later said in another pogram, now thats knowledge.

I find the differences in manner in how they sit at the table eating quite interesting. Raymond neatness and sophistication, Marco eating one-handed leaning over the table. Is it just ‘busy young chef used to just snatching a few minutes to eat most days’ vs ‘boss, famous head chef and restaurant owner’, or is it deliberate on Marco’s part for both Raymond’s or the camera’s sake. Fascinating

They are gems of the 🌎

surprised I haven’t seen this yet (the first part in young RB’s kitchen). really cool. I recently read that when Sacha Baron Cohen finished high school, he went to ask RB for a job. he told Sacha that he would be “too tall to work in the kitchen”. 😑 I had to look it up and he’s the same height as MPW. 😂😂😂 RB is hilarious!

Raymond Blanc ❤

Cosmetically stunning, but then something is missing... Again proving the old adage that form follows function 👌🏿

Back before the war broked out I was a saucier in San Antone.

Not as an apprentice, this was the show Marco did where he went back and cooked one of his signature dishes for the chefs he worked under.

This is before Marco started using Knorr stock pots… Ingredients: Water, salt, flavourings, beef fat (beef fat, antioxidant (extracts of rosemary)) (5.2%), yeast extract, beef stock powder (2%), potassium chloride, gelling agents (xanthan gum, locust bean gum), caramel syrup, maltodextrin, sugar, carrots †, lovage root †, sunflower oil, beef powder (0.1%), leek †, parsley †. †Sustainably grown

learning about Marco Pierre White then learning about Raymond Blanc is like learning about Darth Sidious then learning about Darth Plagueus.
