Bittman, on the problem with TV cooking: "I was at a taping of a Food Network star a couple of years ago when he put a piece of meat on a stovetop grill....the thing immediately caught fire...the charred evidence was whisked off the set, and an assistant came on and grilled a new piece of meat properly...Show people what actually happens in the kitchen, show people that mistakes are made..."
