Udon noodles? Spaghetti? Whatever.....Here's a hint for the FN....try to give us a recipe where you can substitute foods. I am sure that udon noodles aren't too far off from any long flat noodles. You could put s on a shingle and serve it to me -I'm glad you thought enough of me to cook me a meal.
I still do not understand the challenges of trying to cook a 4 hour meal in 15 minutes- Turducken in 45 minutes? I start planning my Thanksgiving spread in mid October. It's patently unfair to expect someone to cook and impress you with a 45 minute meal-for me a 45 minute meal is usually a trip to McDonald's.
The snobbery and jabs are so over the top it's not funny. The long haired moron, Andrew Knowitall is the worst of the worst. How can a food "critic" possibly know anything about cooking? He just tastes stuff and compares it to the city/country where he ate it and how much better it tasted there.

Lisa is a princess and the kind of person that lines up all the pot handles on the stove so they look uniform while she cooks! Can you say retentive?;)
BTW,
IN all the years I have watched TVFN they have never given any kind of shows-besides the Alton-Brown-buy-this-widget-for-150-bucks-to-core-green-apples that show you how to navigate inside a kitchen.
Even me, as a stupid male, know that if you want to open a glass jar you don't bang it on the counter. You grab a butter knife and tap the top at an angle, not straight on, but with a glancing tap. Spin the jar 90 degrees and tap again, four should do it an you don't have to throw away the duck comfit!
