Ramsay Gordon Yelling Career

Profile by Katya Wilhelmy Not everyone has the ability of cooking, neither doing it in front of people. Gordon Ramsay is a different kind of man, he knows he is a good chef so his temperament explodes when someone is not doing the right thing.

The world wide chef Gordon Ramsay was born in England on November 8, 1966. In his early life he lived with both parents and three brothers. He moved constantly from a city to another. His father was a violent man, he usually showed signs of domestic attack as all the other members of the family, including Ramsay. The behavior his father showed to them was the main reason of his famous yelling actions on TV.He was interested in cooking since he was nineteen years old, in that time Gordon had a scholarship for being an outstanding athlete. But he left his football career when he started working as a commis chef at the Wroxton House Hotel.Ramsay moved to London and worked on a a restaurant series. In 1933 Ramsay was offered the position of head chef at the Three Michelin Starred La Tante Claire. In 1998 Ramsay opened his own restaurant in Chelsea, named Restaurant Gordon Ramsay with the help of his father in-law. Since that moment Ramsays restaurants expanded to famous hotels and to other countries.

Ramsay appeared in TV shows as a special guest, but he turned worldwide famous in 2005 when Hells Kitchen TV show went on air on FOX. In this show 12 contestants compete in order to be the head of one Ramsays high-quality restaurant. The difficulty in this show is that they have to pleasure Ramsays discerning palate and handle with his yells. After the show three persons have committed suicide because of the depression of not being selected.

Ramsay is 47 years old and he is the most famous chef in the world. His restaurants will continue to be considered one of the best high quality and first class places.

Ramsay Gordons fame turned him into a worldwideweb meme

Grandmas Flavor

Interview by Katya WilhelmyWe all agree that grandmas food is the most delicious food that a member of our family can cook. I interviewed my grandma Beatriz who is 61 years old.Since when have you been cooking?My childhood was different than yours, at that time all the girls had to cook for their families, even when the whole family has reunited on Sundays. I learned to cook when I was around 9 years old.

What dish do you prefer to cook?I have no preference in cooking, but I think the most typical and perfect ingredient is chili, so I like to cook anything that has chili on it.

When you reunited with sons and grandsons, What does your family love more?All of my grandsons have different tastes talking about food, but everybody agree that Mexican food is the best one.

Do you think that grandma put special flavor on the food?Not really, the thing is that all grandmas in the world do everything with love and we try to coddle our families.What was your favorite dish when you were a child?I think that gorditas with milk after church that my mom baked every Sunday

Have you create a delicious weird dish?A lot actually (laughs), like bolognia tacos or shrimp tortitas

Do you have a special flavor for your dishes?As I said before, I think that everything can be joined with a spicy homemade sauce.

Crunchy Snacks

Personal Experience by Katya Wilhelmy

I used to think that eating food that is not of our culture was really gross and not fetch, like eating raw animal meat. One day my dad brought us some weird packages with snacks he used to eat when he was young. I didnt notice that the tag had an announcement that said energy 100% guaranteed, but when I did I couldnt figured out why a small plastic bag can contain protein to keep you awake all day long. The odor that the plastic bag expelled was unusual, then I opened it.I got scared when I saw a four hundred insect legs pointing to my face. I screamed, really loud, how could my dad imagine I would eat that? I threw away the package and the thing went worse, because one hundred grasshoppers came out of the bag and I had to clean them up.A few hours later my sister came into my room with a plate. She eats chips really often, so I thought she was eating some of them with lemon juice and hot sauce. I was wrong. When she brought closer the plate I saw the grasshoppers swimming in hot sauce I was disgusted with that image.But what is life if you dont take any challenge, what is life if you dont try something new? So I did something unexpected, I took one of those spicy insects and put it in my mouth, the crunchy shelter thunder in my palate. As I was chewing I imagined millions of alive grasshoppers on my tongue. I finished that unusual snack thinking that I was such a girl and it wasnt that bad.

Movie ReviewBy: Mariela Sauceda

BAKE A CAKEHOW TO..

1. The first thing you need to do is select the flavor (s). There so many flavors that you can select, like chocolate, vanilla, carrot, red velvet, dark chocolate, strawberry, funfetti, cheese cake, lemon, dark chocolate, almond and much more. You can also make a two flavor cake; I love mix chocolate and vanilla.

2. To bake the cake you will need eggs, oil, water, and a pack of flour of the flavor you select, if you select the yellow flavor you also need butter. Tir all the materials in the bowl (you can start with the flour, then the eggs, then the oil and finally the water) and mix up with a mixer, until the mix get thicken texture.

3. Preheat the oven in 350of and tir the mix in the mold, make sure that the mixture is aligned, that no lumps or hillocks. Leave the cake for 45 minutes, but check it constantly to verify the progress.

4. Take out the cake of the oven. Leave it for 15 minutes to cool, this step is important, because if you dont let the cake get cold and remove it so fast is so probably that it get stick. Remove it from the mold carefully.5. Decide what type of cover you want for the cake, merengue, frosting, chocolate, Chantilly and cover all the cake. You can search in internet some decorated cakes to get some ideas.

6. Put some toppings, sparks, pearls, fruit, cookies, candies or anything you want.

7. Put it on a box or plate, it depends of you.

8. Cut it in equal parts.

9. Serve it in plates.

10. Enjoy it!

Later the aztecs thought that chocolate was a gift from Querzacoatl (good of wisdom).The Word chocolate comes fon xocoltl, its a nhuatl Word, that means bitter water.Before chocolate as only prepared as a drink, mixed with spices, wine or corn puree, those spices were to get aphrodisiac powers. sugar was added to the drink to be more popular in Europe, according to the aztects.In 20th century, chocolate was essential for the soldiers in United States war, because Hersheys dedicated to send bars of chocolate to them, to provide energy, and some food, also for advertising, it was a great idea. In 1400, chocolate was fermented and served as an alcoholic drink. Mayans used to prepared their chocolate mixing the roasted cacao seed paste into a drink with some wter, peppers and cornmeal.

Black chocolate decrease the risk of having a heart attackNews by Mnica Terrazas

A group of researchers from Louisiana State University have discovered that black chocolate reduces the risk of having a heart attack because it has antiinflamatory agents, according to a scientific study published on March, 2014.

The director of this research, John Finley, detailed that the components of black chocolate are absorbed by the body decreasing the inflammation of cardiovascular tissues and reducing the risks of a heart attack in a long term.

To do this investigation, the scientists simulated the digestion of black chocolate in a model of the digestive tract. According to Finley, the chocolate has multiple antioxidants and fiber that cant be digested by the stomach, but it can be absorbed by the colon, and when this happens it presents antiinflamatory activity in the tissues.

The director of the research also confirmed that the benefits of black chocolate in health matters can increase if it is combine with a diet based on pre-biotics foods, such as carbohydrates, dietary supplements and fruits. This pre-biotics are ingredients non-digestible that benefits the organism by stimulating the growth and activities of bacterias in the colon, improving health and decreasing the risks of suffering a heart attack.

What drove you to become a baker?Since I was a kid, my Italian father shared with me his passion for the kitchen. He had the bakery (Carlos) and I literally grew up here, so I guess it has always been in my blood.

What is the most difficult cake youve ever done?All cakes have their own difficulty. Personally, I love challenges and one cake that was really complicated was the one we made for the local zoo. It took us a lot of details, but in the end, it was worth it and everyone loved it.

What is your favorite dessert to make and why?I really enjoy making cannolis. They are simple, but exquisite and Carlos have the best ones. I think they are my favorite dessert because they remind me of Italy and all my culture.
