Gourmet Today now on TVM

We love seasonal ingredients and the aim of our show is to expose some truly local products, grown with love under the Maltese sun, how they are made (or grown, or caught… depending on what the product is!). And more importantly, some great ways to enjoy them, from the traditional recipe to the more innovative take. One ingredient, four delicious recipes and some kitchen techniques that will help you to cook yourself into a better chef is what you can expect from the show.

Chef Sean Gravina, fresh from his stint at Le Cordon Bleu, the world famous culinary school, will be joined in the kitchen with much-loved Moira Delia, who despite her love for food ain’t-all-that in the kitchen. If he can teach her a trick or two, you’re bound to pick up some easy recipes that will certainly wow your family and friends.

Though innovative dishes are fun to pick up, the more traditional recipes should not be knocked. Published author Pippa Mattei and restaurateur Michael Diacono will also show what they do best with local ingredients.

Our first episode, airing tonight at 18:45 will feature Wardija Olive Oil, where Sammy Cremona takes us through his first press. Though this oil needs little help to make it wonderful, it helps out pretty much any dish! Sean makes some great recipes and then hands over the reins to Pippa Mattei for a more traditional take. Check out some of the recipes on the show.

Gourmet Today TV is shown every Friday at 18:45 on TVM.
