    Hello! Your videos are excellent! I am a home cook and have been cooking since my teens. I am so passionate about cooking good food that I grow the majority of my fruit and vegetables. I also raise F1 Wagyu. Your videos caught my attention because I wanted to see what your take was on making the best dishes possible. I will be making some of your recipes for Christmas and beyond. That being said, your content is so clear, concise and helpful. It is delivered in a calm manner which is a pleasure to listen to. The videography is excellent. I know your videos take a tremendous amount of time and effort and it is very much appreciated.

    I’m 44 and Delia taught me to cook Christmas dinner! I literally screamed when you gave her a shout out!

    I love how the cheese & sauce has created that gorgeous flavourful brown on top, similar to Welsh rarebit. Leeks are my favourite veg and pair so well with cheese.
    I put my chopped leeks in a bowl too, agitate them and leave for awhile, then I place them in a big colander and rinse them thoroughly in the sink under a tap at high pressure whilst agitating them. I find this method also works well to get rid of the dirt and grit.

    The auld milk and corn starch is my cheat method for the roux.

    Nothing superfluous, nothing lacking , as always, Ben. I make the bechamel the same way for cauliflower cheese - never fails. Merry Christmas, Ben, and thanks for all the good videos 🎉

    Such a lovely dish! Thank you for the recipe - Happy Holidays! ☃🎁🎄 P.S. - Obsesive cleaning of vegetables is a good thing! This looks amazing - I should have eaten before watching...🙃

    Big IF but if you have any leftover it makes an epic rarebit on toast the next day. Maybe a fried egg on top.

    I love this dish, I like to sweat the leeks down in some butter rather than boil them but either way it's a great combo, much prefer it to cauliflower cheese.

    I'll defend your bechemal method to the death because it's how I and every home cook in my family does it. I know it's non-traditional, but it works, so what's the problem?! Thanks for the recipe. I think I'll give it a go.
