Now, how do you fancy salmon barbecue with tropical salsa? Flemish stew? How about a vegan barbecue? That is a barbecue with no animal products; you do not actually barbecue a vegan ...
Meet Le Gourmet TV - a broadband TV channel that should add a recipe or two to your repertoire.
In my opinion this is what video on demand was made for. Click across the tabs on the right until you find a topic you are interested in and you can then watch a well-presented video on anything from finding the perfect steak to choosing the best knives.
And of course, there is the cooking itself. The presenters seem to know what they are talking about and the whole thing looks as if it has been filmed by amateur cameramen, but amateur cameramen who know what they are doing - a bit like Click, I suppose.
The top part of the site looks good - the menu animation is nice and smooth - you can see it has been designed in the age of Vista.
Underneath the main video and menu, there is a rather messy paragraph on each of the presenters, along with information about the broadband gourmet network - although at the moment this seems to be the only site.
Although the list of recipes is not enormous, it is growing every week. And I have to say I would have expected the recipe to be listed in text form alongside the video - as it is you have to click on a link which opens a second browser containing the recipe.
But all in all it is a polished site that could become quite successful if they can keep the videos coming.
