He acted pretentious with the use of the word and then doubled down by pretentiously defining it when Symon admitted he didn't know what it meant... But he defined it wrong!!! <br /><br />He was actually praising the dish (unctuous is NOT a flattering adjective), and defined the word: "something from the gut, something with soul to it."<br /><br />WRONG. Sadly, just wrong.

A word I have heard and never had cause to use, but I get the meaning now.... wonder if I could describe my porridge this morning as unctuous?<br />I think I might disturb Hubby's train of thought if I suddenly came out with that. I shall ponder on when and where to use it... "Waiter, My soup is rather unctuous" Errrrr. No, somehow it won't roll off the tongue too easily.<br />Never mind, it might come in useful...<br />Love GrannyMarian Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06765534146844251398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7710381019162583843.post-32437252829578425392009-06-10T19:02:25.901-04:002009-06-10T19:02:25.901-04:00Having the characteristics of oil or ointment.

Thanks, Robin!<br /><br />BTW, I love Food Network, too, but alas, we canceled our cable. Boo hoo!<br />HeidiHeidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00826459451502506768noreply@blogger.com
