Judith Brookes: In the Food Programme studio today, we have two cooks, Julian
Woolf and Susan Fuller. They are going to choose Christmas presents for a new cook. Julian Woolf, your kitchen is full of useful tools. If you could choose just two things for a new cook, what would you choose?
Julian Woolf: I’d choose a fruit juice maker. You just put the fruit in and it produces fruit juice. It’s super. And secondly, I’d choose a really good butcher’s knife. Every good cook could do with a good knife.
Susan Fuller: I’d choose a good cookery book, full of beautiful pictures. He could look at the book, and it would give him good ideas. And secondly, I’d choose a computer.
