Food Network from page 41 A FAMILY-OWNED MICHIGAN COMPANY SERVING YOU. 183891,, JN: Why do cooks use so much JN: Do you have a favorite show butter and very rich ingredients? or chef? AS: I like Chopped. Once I start watching an episode, I get drawn in AS: Emeril said that if he was add- ing extra butter to something, people would cheer. It makes good TV. It's like visiting Grandma's house. You want to be indulged. It's fantasy. They use the phrase "food porn:' When the TV lights are turned off, the chefs are not devouring the pies they just made. That's that. It's food pornography; it's not all real. JN: Has the politics of the Food Network been any different from the politics of other networks? AS: Television is a brutal business. Imagine if everybody got work rat- ings every single night about what was done that day. What's interest- ing and unique about this network is that [there has been] a kitchen at the center of it. That created a family-like, cult-like atmosphere. People who worked there had a deep connection. When somebody is canceled, it's like being tossed out of a family. The stakes just feel higher. immediately and can't turn it off until it's over and I know who won. JN: What's involved in your per- sonal cooking? AS: My mother did not like cook- ing. She was not a very good cook. I like a dry brisket because hers was sopping wet with some kind of recipe she got from her grandmother. When I was a kid, my brother and I had to do the dishes, and we hated it. We could each cook one night of the week, and my mother would clean up. For some reason, I immediately reached for an old James Beard cook- book on the shelf and started making recipes with heavy cream and shallots. Nobody in my family even knew what shallots were. Cooking is something I find to be wonderfully soothing and meditative. Anything that gets more people cook- ing is good for our souls. ❑ Allen Salkin will speak during the JCC Jewish Book Fair at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13, at the Jewish Community Center in West Bloomfield (jccdet.org ).
