slightly different today I know this many people like to see my kitchen so
5
233420
6980
04:00
every Wednesday I said Thursday but in fact it's Wednesday it feels like
6
240400
6700
04:07
Thursday but in fact it is Wednesday I know it is Wednesday because earlier we
7
247100
7080
04:14
had our rubbish bin emptied so the local council comes every Wednesday to empty
8
254180
7559
04:21
our rubbish bin so that's why it must be Wednesday so the big question is what's
9
261739
8871
04:30
cooking Oh do you like that question what's cooking
10
270610
5830
04:36
well first of all there is nothing cooking in the kitchen today because I
11

04:42
won't be doing any cooking however I will be talking about things connected
12
282230
5280
04:47
to this room however we can also use what's cooking as a phrase to ask a
13
287510
7830
04:55
person what is going on so you might ask mr. Duncan today on your livestream
14
295340
6900
05:02
what's cooking so this can actually be used as a phrase which means what is
15
302240
7080
05:09

27
383070
6760
06:29
as if I spent every single day on YouTube which in fact I have technically

7770

405310

32
418080
5980
07:04
playlist is under this video in the description can I say thank you very
33
424060
7350
07:11
much to those who helped me yesterday with my little problem I had a technical
34
431410
4290
07:15
problem with my iPhone now I was prompted so I had a message from Apple
35
435700
8210
07:23
telling me that I had to update my mobile phone to the latest operating
36
443910
5890
07:29
system iOS 13 I think it is is it is it really is 13 it seems very high doesn't
37
449800
8280
07:38
it too high in fact anyway it asked me to
38
458080
5280
07:43
update to the brand new version of iOS and I asked yesterday
39
463360
4920
07:48
is it safe to do it and I had a few people say mr. Duncan you can do it so
40
468280
6840
07:55
last night I I decided to take the risk and
41
475120
4510
07:59
I updated the operating system in my iPhone and yes it works okay
42
479630
7050
08:06
in fact I can't really tell any difference from the previous operating
43
486680
5250
08:11
system to be honest it seems pretty much the same even though people keep on
44
491930
6210
08:18
about dark mode what is dark mode does that does that mean that it will switch
45
498140
7800
08:25
your lights off if you want your lights to go off you can actually press a
46
505940
4800
08:30
button on your phone and it will make everything dark I wonder so what is
47
510740
6570
08:37
trending at the moment right here in the UK this is trending the hashtag
48
517310
7340
08:44
extension rebellion extinction rebellion so the word extinction means to be wiped
49
524650
7720
08:52
out a certain creature a certain animal vanishes forever we say that the
50
532370
8280
09:00
particular animal in question has gone extinct it has become extinct so at the
51
540650
6750
09:07
moment down in London there is a big protest taking place thousands and
52
547400
4500
09:11
thousands of people have taken to the streets of London to protest against the
53
551900
7650
09:19
destruction of the environment now I have my own thoughts on the extinction
54
559550
6870
09:26
rebellion first of all my my first thought is how are all those people
55
566420
6510
09:32
getting to London are they walking there are they riding their bicycles or are
56
572930
7470
09:40
they driving their cars so there might be something slightly ironic or even
57
580400
5760
09:46
hypocritical about that I've also noticed that many of the protest signs
58
586160
6630
09:52
that they're holding are made of paper or plastic two of the things that are
59
592790
9270
10:02
pretty much destroying the planet at the moment so I'm not really sure if it's
60
602060
5010
10:07
the right approach sometimes protesting gets you nowhere if you remember
61
607070
6220
10:13
way back in 2008 when we had the banking crisis
62
613290
5670
10:18
lots of people decided to camp outside in London in public places and also in
63
618960
7980
10:26
places where they shouldn't have been but it turned out that many of the
64
626940
4680
10:31
people that were camping in tents were actually not there they were going to
65
631620
6840
10:38
their hotels so they were putting their their tents outside some famous
66
638460
6200
10:44
landmarks this is way back in 2008 by the way and many of them were going to a
67
644660
7060
10:51
hotel to sleep in luxury so sometimes these things can come across they can
68
651720
7650
10:59
appear a little bit hypocritical for example during the last extinction
69
659370
5760
11:05
protest Emma Thompson flew all the way from New York
70
665130
5430
11:10
or was it California to be with the protesters and then soon as the protests
71
670560
4890
11:15
finished she got back on a plane and flew all the way back to the United
72
675450
5190
11:20
States and the irony was they were actually protesting about the number of
73
680640
5940
11:26
people that are using planes to get it round so I thought that was a little
74
686580
6150
11:32
strange to say the least anyway it is trending at the moment I'm sure you have
75
692730
6450
11:39
different thoughts and opinions which you are allowed you can express your
76
699180
6180
11:45
opinions right here it is free you can join it and ask and say what you want I
77

might describe my live streams as being a marathon so something that goes on
87
786830
6150
13:12
much longer than usual so you can run a marathon or something that goes on for
88
792980
7890
13:20
an extended period of time can also be described as a marathon a long thing
89
800870

90
807320

13:43
moderating the livestream jae-hwan Jang says oh hello and also good night now
93
823779
9041
13:52
normally we use good night as a way of saying goodbye so we don't normally
94
832820
6060
13:58
greet with good night we normally say good night when we are going away so it
95
838880
8430
14:07
is unusual to say good night when you are saying hello however you can say
96
847310
7170
14:14
good evening good evening good evening everybody
97
854480
5160
14:19

103
894080
8010
15:02
gazebo has been folded away and it's just behind me there in the conservatory
104
902090
7650
15:09
oh by the way today would have been John Lennon's 79th birthday he would have
105
909740
6330
15:16
been 79 today had he not been assassinated way back in 1980
106
916070
7380
15:23
so John Lennon would have been 79 today I love your kitchen says Christina it is
107
923450
9780
15:33
very cozy sometimes when we say cozy we actually mean small yes my kitchen is
108
933230
9470
15:42
small not big not small I suppose I suppose I would say that the kitchen is
109
942700
8010
15:50
medium-sized but you're right yes it is quite cozy in here even though all of
110
950710
7690
15:58
this needs replacing so everything behind me is actually very
111
958400
6150
16:04
old so this behind me and this everything it is all actually quite old
112
964550
7410
16:11
so it does need replacing however on the camera it looks quite nice I can't help
113
971960
7530
16:19
noticing that on the camera everything looks quite pretty and lovely
114
979490
5010
16:24
hello muna hello Patrick Patrick I am starving can you cook
115
984500
7710
16:32
something for me well there is something I can do I can I can put the kettle on
116
992210
8610
16:40
would you like me to put the kettle on kettle kettle is something you use for
117
1000820
6650
16:47
boiling water so if you put the kettle on what does it mean
118
1007470
7169
16:54
does it mean this here is my kettle so put the kettle on does it mean this no
119
1014639
18180
17:12
of course it doesn't so when you put the kettle on it means you heat it up you
120
1032819
6330
17:19
heat the water in the kettle so you can make a hot drink so when we say put the
121
1039149
7140
17:26
kettle on mr. Duncan can you put the kettle on it means can you boil some
122
1046289
6451
17:32
water so we can have a nice hot cup of tea or maybe a cup of coffee what are
123
1052740
7380
17:40
you having today are you having a cup of tea or a cup of coffee mm-hmm
124
1060120
5010
17:45
please let me know because I'm very interested I'm always interested to find
125
1065130
6000
17:51
out what you are doing so when we say put the kettle on it means boil some
126
1071130
6330
17:57
water incidentally the word kettled can also be used as a verb and also a noun
127
1077460
10429
18:07
it can describe a maneuver that is sometimes done by the police so the word
128
1087889
7900
18:15
kettle can actually be used as a verb you can kettle someone in you can kettle
129
1095789
8370
18:24
someone and this is often a procedure or a maneuver that is used by the police
130
1104159
5661
18:29
during protests and what they will do they will push all of the protesters
131
1109820
6190
18:36
into a corner or into a small space so they can let off their anger they can do
132
1116010
8580
18:44
what they went there to do which is protest so the word kettle has more than
133
1124590
7650
18:52
one meaning normally it's means to put something on heat such as a kettle of
134
1132240
10319
19:02
water and it can also mean to push some into a corner you cattle them you push
135
1142559
8771
19:11
them into up tun into a confined space back to the live chat oh hello - 1449 is

148
1246550
6810
20:53

1253360
6210
20:59
to make it look nice just for you isn't that lovely what do you want to cook for
150
1259570
8190
21:07
us I won't be doing any cooking today however I will be showing you some
151
1267760
6320
21:14
kitchen items so things that we use in the kitchen so I will be
152
1274080
7990
21:22
showing you right here live on camera some of the things that I have in my
153
1282070
6090
21:28
kitchen some of the useful items that I have right here in my kitchen kitchen
154
1288160
10200
21:38
items I have been doing my lessons I've been making my youtube videos for almost
155
1298360
10880
21:49
13 years and this morning I thought of a very interesting word and here is the
156
1309240
7000
21:56
word can you see it longevity longevity I love this word I
157
1316240
6780
22:03
don't know why some people pronounce it longevity however most people will
158
1323020
7290
22:10
pronounce this word longevity longevity and the meaning of the word is to
159
1330310
6570
22:16
survive for a long period of time or to have a very long life so when we talk
160
1336880
7770
22:24
about longevity it means an extended or long period of actually existing of
161
1344650
10010
22:34
being alive so I love this word also it can refer to anything that has been done
162
1354660
8010
22:42
for a long time so so you might say that my youtube channel has longevity it
163
1362670
8800
22:51
means it has survived for many years and hopefully it will survive for many more
164
1371470

167
1390100
7590
23:17
to be honest with you can I just admit I'm not a big fan of cooking so I
168
1397690
7710
23:25
wouldn't describe myself as a good cook however sometimes when I do cook I can
169
1405400
7440
23:32
be a little bit lazy that's all I'm saying for example last
170
1412840
6120
23:38
night I made pizza well actually I didn't make pizza I actually got a
171
1418960
10550
23:49
frozen pizza from out of the freezer and then I just put it in the oven so I was
172
1429510
7060
23:56
a little lazy last night I decided to cook pizza unfortunately I did not
173
1436570
6719
24:03
prepare it myself it was already prepared it was frozen in
174
1443289
6031
24:09
a box so I'm sure some of you are now saying mr. Duncan you are so lazy why
175
1449320
6900
24:16
don't you make your own food why don't you stand in front of your your stove
176
1456220
7069
24:23
cooking the food yourself hmm well I suppose it is a very good
177
1463289
7061
24:30
suggestion the only problem is and this is something I've noticed if you buy
178
1470350
5939
24:36
fresh food if you buy fresh vegetables they will often go bad very quickly so
179
1476289
8941
24:45
that is one thing that I object to I don't like buying food and then having
180
1485230
6510
24:51
to throw it away because it's gone bad so mmm here's an interesting question
181
1491740
8450
25:00
what age would you like to live up to mr. Duncan I would like to live up to
182
1500190
7239
25:07
the end of today that is my wish so as long as I survive today we will see what
183
1507429
8011
25:15
happens tomorrow so that's the answer to that question Mohammed Mohammed II says
184
1515440
6300
25:21
hello mr. Duncan I am happy because now I am with you watching in Tehran hello
185
1521740
7230
25:28
to you Najib is here his longevity a synonym of sustainability well I suppose
186
1528970
10110
25:39
it's similar but not exact so when we talk about sustainability it means
187
1539080
5610
25:44
something that can be renewed easily so especially when we're talking about
188
1544690
6460
25:51
environmental issues we often talk about sustainable crops or sustainable energy
189
1551150
8020
25:59
something that can be renewed again and again and then it will continue so I
190
1559170
7500
26:06
suppose you could you could say longevity refers to sustainability Kemal
191
1566670
9060
26:15
hello mr. Duncan hello without hello we're there I like your name it's very
192
1575730
5490
26:21
unusual very unusual indeed hello sir thank you so much for the job you've
193
1581220
6870
26:28
done I am from Bala Balochistan in Iran but I
194
1588090
6090
26:34

195
1594180
5730
26:39
beautiful architecture and also rather delicious food not women I wasn't going
196
1599910
10290
26:50
to say that how dare you Louie Louie Turtles often have great longevity this
197
1610200
10020
27:00
is true I think in fact maybe I'm wrong but certainly one of the the oldest
198
1620220
8640
27:08
living creatures as far as their lifespan is concerned is the turtle I
199
1628860
7050
27:15
think they can live for maybe a hundred and fifty years if not longer yes I
200
1635910
8960
27:24
watched Finding Nemo I did some people think that Finding Nemo is a documentary
201
1644870
8700
27:33
how strange is that Miguel says sir quite often you use the expression by
202
1653570
7480
27:41
the way what does it mean well if you say by the way it means you are changing
203
1661050
6090
27:47
the subject very briefly so you are talking about one thing but then
204
1667140
6810
27:53
suddenly you remember that you want to talk about something else
205
1673950
4530
27:58
so you say oh I'm talking about that but by the way by the way so
206
1678480
8650
28:07
it is something you emphasize as a thing you are adding to the conversation or
207
1687130
7850
28:14
what you are saying so I am talking about this by the way by the way so it
208
1694980
8500
28:23
literally means by the way means to go off in a slightly different direction
209
1703480
6810
28:30
there is something that I want to tell you and it's very important by the way
210
1710290

4500
29:22

221
1785020
7800
29:52
look outside this morning I woke up very early
222
1792820
2970
29:55
because I noticed yesterday that the farmer who lives nearby has started to
223
1795790
8400
30:04
plow his fields would you like to have a look okay here it is now can you
224
1804190
7510
30:11
see on the screen if you look very closely you will see a tractor slowly
225
1811700
6449
30:18
coming into view and there it is and that is the farmer who owns all of the
226
1818149
7500
30:25
land very close to me and he is cutting he is turning over foreground so he is
227
1825649
11041
30:36
actually preparing the land for next year so this year the harvest has come
228
1836690
8579
30:45
and gone and now he's preparing the land he is plowing the field plow that's a
229
1845269
9481
30:54
very interesting word by the way the word plow I will show you that word in a
230
1854750
5279
31:00
minute because the word plow can actually be
231
1860029
3541
31:03
spelled in more than one way so there you can see now appearing on the screen
232
1863570
5370
31:08
you can see in the distance there is a farmer and he is plowing the field you
233
1868940
9479
31:18
can also see some sheep in the background as well it's quite a windy
234
1878419
3841
31:22
day so that is something that I filmed this morning looking out of my window
235
1882260
5730
31:27
and yes I do live in the countryside I that is where I live I live in the
236
1887990
8460
31:36
country you're gonna find me out in the country because that's where I live so
237
1896450
8130
31:44
the word play out a very interesting word ooh
238
1904580
4699
31:49
and as you can see it can be spelt in two ways so at the top you can see
239
1909279
7801
31:57
plough that particular spelling is British English British English and
240
1917080
8349
32:05
underneath you will see a different spelling of the word and that is used in
241
1925429
7801
32:13
British English sorry American English British English
242
1933230
4100
32:17
American English this is used in Britain or in British English and this is used
243
1937330
6910
32:24
in in English or of course in the United
244
1944240
4049
32:28
States of America plough so when the farmer goes into the field he wants to
245
1948289
7561
32:35
turn the land over in preparation for next year's crop
246
1955850
7410
32:43
he will then plant some more seeds and they will grow into next year's harvest

6920
35:42
showing the place in which I live tomorrow
270
2142230
3580
35:45
we will be back in the studio however today I am doing something slightly
271
2145810
5040
35:50
different because we are going to take a look around my kitchen yes we are in the
272
2150850
6870
35:57
kitchen and today I'm wearing my trousers for the past few days I've been
273
2157720
7950
36:05
wearing shorts but today I have had to put on my trousers and it feels very
274
2165670
5010
36:10
strange it really does feel strange when you've been wearing shorts for many days
275
2170680
6600
36:17
and then suddenly you put long trousers on and it feels very uncomfortable
276
2177280
5310
36:22
especially if you are wearing jeans anyway let's have a look shall we
277
2182590
6380
36:28
so things that exist in the kitchen we are going to take a look at some simple
278
2188970
7270
36:36
things that you will find and I will explain the words to you is that okay I
279
2196240
7190
36:43
hope so
280
2203430
3330
36:50
the first thing I'm going to show you is this this is plate plate a very common
281
2210260
11740
37:02
item something that you will see in many kitchens now of course I know what
282
2222000
5580
37:07
you're going to say mr. Duncan that is a big plate but of course there are small
283
2227580
6390
37:13
plates as well so you can have large plates like this this is a very large
284
2233970
7410
37:21
plate it is quite big in fact so the word here is plate plate and the word
285
2241380
9450
37:30
also can be used to mean a flat surface or something that is flat so we might
286
2250830
7740
37:38
talk about plate when we are talking about geology so quite often in geology
287
2258570
7470
37:46
they will mention the plates the flat areas of land quite often these plates
288
2266040
9390
37:55
are divided and now and again they will push together and then the pressure once
289
2275430
6960
38:02
it's released will cause an earthquake so plate is a word that means a flat
290
2282390
6570
38:08
thing you might also say that this is related to the word plateau plateau
291
2288960
6480
38:15
which means to even out even out so to go as an even line we say plateau so you
292
2295440
10950
38:26
might say that these two words or those two words are actually related so that
293
2306390
5280
38:31
were first word plate and on your plate you will put your food you will serve
294
2311670
7190
38:38
the food on a plate so that is the first word
295
2318860
8940
38:51
another thing that you might eat from is
296
2331700
5340
38:58
dish you might eat from a dish and there you can see dish this can also be called
297
2338869
8351
39:07
bowl so this can be called a dish or bowl so we often eat our cereal or our
298
2347220
11490
39:18
breakfast such as porridge we will eat it in a dish and also we will probably
299
2358710
8399
39:27
eat our desserts such as ice cream quite often you will eat ice cream in a dish
300
2367109
9260
39:36
so you will serve a dish of ice cream you will serve something in a dish of
301
2376369
10181
39:46
course generically the word dish can mean any meal so dish as a generic word
302
2386550
10140
39:56
means any thing that is served as a meal so a dish can be any meal something you
303
2396690
9960
40:06
have prepared you have prepared a delicious dish something that you will
304
2406650
7200
40:13
serve to your dinner guests maybe dish so there are many ways of using that
305
2413850
7830
40:21
word also dish can be used as a slang term for an attractive male so if you
306
2421680
11400
40:33
see a man who is attractive good-looking handsome
307
2433080
11420
40:45
you might describe him as a dish Oh did you see Tom Cruise oh he was in
308
2445990
8460
40:54
Mission Impossible 8 whoo what a dish he's such a dish no I know I'm not a
309
2454450
10500
41:04
dish don't worry I don't take things too seriously you may have noticed here is
310
2464950
8310
41:13
another thing that you will see around the kitchen oh this is interesting
311
2473260
8300
41:21
mug mug so there is another word and there is the item oh look it's it's an
312
2481950
7630
41:29
England cup so this can be described as a cup or mug but actually this
313
2489580
9240
41:38
particular type of cup is normally called mug and the reason why is because
314
2498820
5730
41:44
it is large so it is larger than the average cup so normally a cup is much
315
2504550
7350
41:51
smaller so mug is a large cup normally you will serve tea or coffee in one of
316
2511900
10830
42:02
these so there is a mug and this particular mug is commemorating the
317
2522730
10109
42:12
England Football team do mug also the word mug can be used to mean face a
318
2532839
11041
42:23
person's face can also be described as mug a person's mug if you are ever in
319
2543880
9840
42:33
trouble with the police they will often take a photograph of you and they will
320
2553720
5970
42:39
call that photograph mug shot mug shot so basically it means a picture of your
321
2559690
8580
42:48
face so the word mug can be used in more than one way
322
2568270
4890
42:53
also the word mug can mean attack a so as a verb it means to attack someone
323
2573160
9040
43:02
or to rob someone violently so you will jump on them you will beat
324
2582200
6000
43:08
them and then you will take their valuables we say that you mug someone or
325
2588200
7110
43:15
of / of course the victim has been mugged mugged so many many words so even
326
2595310
10830
43:26
though these words seem simple they can be used in many different ways okay we
327
2606140
12810
43:38

333
2661010
10190
44:31
simple word and here is the item so jug a jug is a container that is used for
334
2671200
10810
44:42
measuring and also pouring so when you pour it means you transfer the liquid

8851
44:58
the kitchen and you can see that you can also measure measure the quantities of
337

45:12
the kitchen especially if you are making a recipe so if you are following the
339
2712010
4920
45:16
recipe you will often have to measure things in this jug jug I love that word
340
2716930
8730
45:25
and this particular one is very large and also very heavy and the great thing
341
2725660
6990
45:32
about this is you can use it in a microwave oven so this is very useful it
342
2732650
8520
45:41
can be used for many different applications many different uses in the
343
2741170
5820
45:46
kitchen very useful thing jerk jerk now here is
344
2746990
15210
46:02
an item that looks like a jug but it isn't it is made of glass but this
345
2762200
7830
46:10
particular thing has one certain use and it is called a mixing bowl mixing bowl
346
2770030
9600
46:19
so mixing bowl is the thing that you have and also the purpose of the thing
347
2779630
9239
46:28
so we use this for mixing ingredients so maybe if you are making a cake in here
348
2788869
8911
46:37
you will put some eggs some flour some water maybe a little bit of sugar and
349
2797780
8610
46:46
also maybe a little bit of yeast or special flour so the flour will allow
350
2806390
8820
46:55
the cake to expand so you will mix everything in the bowl hence the name
351
2815210
7470
47:02
that's why this is called a mixing bowl so a mixing bowl is a very useful thing
352
2822680
6600
47:09
once again a very useful thing to have around the kitchen you will mix things
353
2829280
7440
47:16
in a bowl also it's very useful if you are going into space but
354
2836720
5740
47:22
you can use it as a helmet Mission Control we have a problem mixing bowl I
355
2842460
19070
47:41
love being in the kitchen but I do prefer it when mr. Steve is here cooking
356
2861530
6579
47:48
the meal here is another thing that is very interesting oh this is the big one
357
2868109
8311
47:56
this is very big it is once again transparent so you can see
358
2876420
6449
48:02
right through it it is made of glass it is big it is heavy and also it is very
359
2882869
8220
48:11
useful and this particular thing is called a casserole dish casserole dish
360
2891089
8371
48:19
so this particular dish serves a specific purpose and that is to make hot
361
2899460
8520
48:27
meals inside it but what is a casserole a casserole is a type of stew very thick
362
2907980
9530
48:37
with lots of gravy quite often with meat and vegetables and quite often you will
363
2917510
7660
48:45
eat a casserole during the winter when the weather is cold and everyone needs
364
2925170
6780
48:51
something warm to eat so casserole we can also say stew as well so a casserole
365
2931950
9240
49:01
is a very popular meal that is served during the winter here in the UK
366
2941190
8090
49:09
casserole dish and this one is made of glass of course there are other
367
2949280
7470
49:16
casserole dishes which are not transparent so this one is but there are
368
2956750
7119
49:23
many that don't so you can cook your casserole or your stew I suppose also
369
2963869
8551
49:32
you could cook your fish in here as well Steve always cooks the fish
370
2972420
5679
49:38
on Sunday in this dish a casserole dish so that is our next item we are now
371
2978099
23520
50:01
getting to the interesting things the things that you use directly for cooking
372
3001619
8101
50:09
and here is the next item very nice very shiny in fact there it is look at that
373
3009720
10080
50:19
you can actually see the reflection of the camera so you can see the camera
374
3019800
6680
50:26
reflection so this particular thing very common you will see many of these in all
375
3026480
8139
50:34
sorts of shapes and sizes in the kitchen saucepan a saucepan so saucepan or
376
3034619
9421
50:44
saucepan is a very useful thing it is normally used for heating boiling or
377
3044040
9380
50:53
simmering simmer so if you cook something for a very long time but you
378
3053420
6399
50:59
don't want it to get too hot you just want it to stay on the boil you simmer
379
3059819
7520
51:07
simmer or of course you can heat something up until it reaches boiling
380
3067339
5651
51:12
point and then you will boil something so you can cook potatoes in a saucepan
381
3072990
7770
51:20
you can make soup in a saucepan you can heat up your baked beans in a
382
3080760
7440
51:28
saucepan so there are many ways of using a saucepan saucepan and some people also
383
3088200
8399
51:36
call these pots so people over a certain age will often call these pots so they
384
3096599
8191
51:44
won't actually say saucepan they will in fact
385
3104790
3090
51:47
use the word popped instead so there you can see a sauce burn one of many and mr.
386
3107880
8310
51:56
Steve normally on a Sunday will cook the rice in this pot or in this saucepan
387
3116190
9590
52:05
mm-hmm I hope you enjoyed that we are already
388
3125780
3670
52:09
coming towards the end of the livestream can you believe it it's gone so quickly
389
3129450
4190
52:13
so fast here is another thing that is very useful in the kitchen when you want
390
3133640
11320
52:24
to cook something especially when you want to cook something unhealthy so
391
3144960
8910
52:33
maybe in the morning maybe you want some breakfast you want to cook yourself a
392
3153870
4890
52:38
lovely full English breakfast egg bacon sausage baked beans you will need one of
393
3158760
12030
52:50
these this is a very useful thing to have around in your kitchen especially
394
3170790
5880
52:56
if you want to fry something or maybe you want to hit your partner over the
395
3176670
8880
53:05
head a few times to keep them quiet so this has many uses so a frying pan yes
396
3185550
9000
53:14
there it is frying pan so in a frying pan you will fry food so quite often the
397
3194550
10410
53:24
things that you cook in the frying pan will actually be unhealthy you will
398
3204960
5550
53:30
normally use fat and the things that you fry quite often are meat so maybe you
399
3210510
8100
53:38
fry bacon you fry steak or maybe you fry a sausage frying pan very useful and
400
3218610
12570
53:51
normally you will fry food you'll heat the food up in some oil so first of all
401
3231180
7860
53:59
you will put oil or fat in the frying pan and then you will
402
3239040
5400
54:04
gently heat it and then you will add your food so it will fry I don't know
403
3244440
7530
54:11
about you but I absolutely love fried food I know it's bad for you I know it's
404
3251970
6899
54:18
bad for your health I know what you're going to say mr. Duncan you shouldn't
405
3258869
4681
54:23
eat fried food it isn't good for you I know I know I'm terrible so there is the
406
3263550
7200
54:30
next one frying pan frying pan pan is a very interesting word the word pan can
407
3270750
9180
54:39
be used in many ways pan can mean go from left to right or maybe from right
408
3279930
8220
54:48
to left so you can move horizontally so if you pan it means you move
409
3288150
8840
54:56
horizontally so there is another use of the word plan quite often that
410
3296990
7359
55:04
particular word is used in cinematography or photography so if you
411
3304349
5760
55:10
are filming something and you move your camera across horizontally we call that
412
3310109
8690
55:18
pan pan you pan across and the opposite of that is up and down and that is
413
3318799
9760
55:28
called tilt tilt so that is tilt and that is pen and this is a frying pan and
414
3328559
15121
55:43
it has nothing to do with making videos
415
3343680
5179
55:55
something else very useful if you are in the kitchen and you want to put
416
3355250
4359
55:59
something in your oven you will need one of these to protect the bottom of the
417
3359609
5641
56:05
food and this is called a baking tray hello
418
3365250
7020
56:12
baking tray you today so a baking tray is normally
419
3372270
5020
56:17
used to protect the bottom of the food especially if you put it in an oven
420
3377290
5100
56:22
so maybe the oven is very hot but you don't want the bottom of your food to
421
3382390
5160
56:27
burn so you will normally put your food on a baking tray you will use a baking
422
3387550
7410
56:34
tray for making cakes or maybe you will put something on top of the baking tray
423
3394960
8040
56:43
like a pizza whoo that's what I did last night I actually made a pizza last night
424
3403000
7760
56:50
well I didn't make it it was already made but I put it on a baking tray and
425
3410760
6880
56:57
then I placed it in the oven so there it was a baking tray I hope that was useful
426
3417640
11630
57:09

432
3462280
11280
57:53

433
3473560
4170

gloves oven gloves so these are special items to keep your hands-free from being
439
3518369
13111
58:51
birthed by the hot food so these are oven gloves
440
3531480
4470
58:55
in fact these particular oven gloves are a little bit old I think we need to get
441
3535950
6450

442
3542400

3606380

tea towel it's interesting that the word tea is used however it just refers to
455
3643580

60:51
something that you use for wiping or drying maybe something that you have
