1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: And Amanda Jama. One of my favorite books in the 2 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 1: world is Recipe Tin Eats. And the Chef Nagi, or 3 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 1: the cook as she would call herself, Naggie Mahashi thousand 4 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: brilliant recipes. We've had her on the show, Love her 5 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,440 Speaker 1: Well yesterday an explosive claim from her, and there's been 6 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,760 Speaker 1: another one from an American chef as well, American cookbook creator, 7 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: saying that a couple of recipes have been plagiarized by 8 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: a Queensland woman called Brooke Bellamy who has sold many, 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: many books. She's known as Brookie, and she's put out 10 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,319 Speaker 1: a book. She's put out a Bookie and they are 11 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: saying that a couple of their recipes have been used 12 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 1: without credit in her book. And Nagi put them up 13 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 1: side by side yesterday on social media, saying they are identical. 14 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: Even my wording of the theory and the how, the method, 15 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: it's identical. Brook has said herself, and this is what's 16 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: interesting as to where you sit on this. Like many bakers, 17 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: I draw inspiration from the classics. While baking has a 18 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: leeway for creativity, much of it is a precise science 19 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 1: and is necessarily formulaic. Many recipes are bound to share 20 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,199 Speaker 1: common steps and measures, and if you don't, they simply 21 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: don't work. This is the thing with particularly with baking, 22 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 1: is that it's a science. And so the recipes here 23 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: that are in question from recipe he eats. She feels 24 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 1: that her caramel slice and her backlovar were pretty much 25 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: plagiarized by Brook. It is, though, just caramel slice and baklava, 26 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: but they were very specific ingredients at quarter of a 27 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: teaspoon of this and this, and most chefs, most cookbook creators, 28 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: content creators, yep will attribute it if it's here's one 29 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: I had in a restaurant ten years ago, but I've 30 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: added a tiny bit of vinegar or something like that 31 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: to show your point of difference. And if there is 32 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: no point of difference, you credit it. It's like the castle. 33 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: What do you call this? Love ice cream? It's a 34 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: fine line, isn't it between you know? As I said, 35 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: this chocolate cake, caramel sliced backloavar. There are recipes through 36 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: the years as to how this isn't there made? Where 37 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: do you think the plagiarism is? It's interesting, it is interesting. 38 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: So maybe what you need to do is put in 39 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: some one crazy ingredient that separates yours from the others. 40 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: I think Matt Moran as a spaghetti bolonnaise recipe that 41 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 1: he puts orange peel in orange and apparently it's delicious, 42 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: and that that is his point of difference, and he's 43 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: not just doing it for the point of difference. You 44 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: can get away with that. If I did that, it'd 45 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: be a mistake. Well, what do you do I make 46 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: a spaghetti bullees with orange peel. No, I put two 47 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: tea spons of curry powder in there, just basic curry 48 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 1: powder or basic Keenes curry powder, just two of them, 49 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: or Clive from India's curry powder. And so if someone 50 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: was to copy that, you would know that was yours 51 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: secret ingredient. Yeah, don't Brookie me Man. Interesting, Yeah, that's 52 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: what I do. What do you do? Do you? Because 53 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: you when you're making food, you looks like you're making explosives. 54 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: That's what my husband says. It's like I'm mixing explosives. 55 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm not an experimental cook, and I do like to 56 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: bake fighter men. Yeah, I don't think I do. Okay, Brenda, 57 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: that's enough about you. I you put carry powder in 58 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: there as well. Clive comes over Clive of India, if 59 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to get spicy,
