Here in Malaysia we do have butter fried rice so it wasn't really a surprise to see butter being used.

@@PhreakinPhilip It seems the solution there is to blend it very roughly, then remove some to be added to the rice while cooking, then blend the rest until smooth and _that_ is what you add to the rice after plating. Honestly though, the purpose of blending it rough like that is because once blended, you can seal it up, put it in the icebox, and then take it with you on the trail. Adds some texture to the rice when cooking, and the simplest fact is that after working for 14 hours, you'll eat just about anything long as it's hot and don't smell too bad.

@@ChefJamesMakinson yes, and he really did make a decent fried rice. As you said, about the only criticism is the looks of the sauce, and that's a product of the limited choice of tools he has in the field for creating it more than the actual flavour. One thing I'd have done differently (other than using a bottle of teriyaki sauce from the Asian supermarket to save time) is adding some of the green onions as garnish, and serving the extra sauce in on the side as an optional extra.

As an outdoor cook, using a wood stove is tricky for most folks. But having been around a grandma who cooked with a wood stove from the early 1900's, you get use to using what you have and compensating the variants during the cooking process becomes instinctive. You can cook various meals from rustic to fine cuisine on a wood stove. But I prefer more rustic cooking for the out door setting. So kudos to Mr. Kent for showing all that an outdoor stove can be used for a variety of meals.

Sushi, BTW, refers to the vinegared rice, not the raw fish. That said the reason you want it fresh-made is because if you get maki, the rolls, the nori (seaweed) will lose its snap over time. In addition, in Japan they do not serve any salmon sushi in the convenience stores because there is a higher chance of contamination with worms. But this has not been regulated in the US, so one can get deathly ill. (Covered by Chubby Emu [KZfaq] and also Cells at work[anime]) Sashimi, BTW, is purely raw fish. mirepoix is usually cooked, though, and his wasn't, so it looked nasty, honestly. Because in mirepoix all those hard celery strings would have been softened--if he'd cooked the celery, it might have blended better? Also, teriyaki sauce contains soy sauce, so it's a bit redundant. He could have used straight teriyaki sauce, then. Might have been elevated with something like garlic, onions and green scallion, though adding the sesame seed oil isn't a bad move. (Basically bulgogi marinade).
@jwenting Жыл бұрын
yup. And if you look at the history of sushi until fairly recently it didn't contain raw fish in most parts of Japan simply because raw fish would spoil before getting any distance inland. Smoked or pickled fish would be used instead (in fact historically pickled and fermented rice would be used as a preservative for fish in Japan, which is part of the origins of sushi, as that rice ended up being eaten with the fish).

I would have done the sauce a bit different(namely not adding celery but that is merely my personal taste) and would not have used butter(I actually love using peanut oil). Otherwise, I would definitely make this recipe. As for my favorite food, that is hard to say. I love Sushi(and I do strongly agree that getting it at a restaurant that specializes in sushi is best. My exception is HEB because they always have people making it.), and most Asian food generally from fried rice to chicken and beef satay with peanut sauce. I also enjoy BBQ(well I am a Texan after all), some Italian dishes such as alfredo, Tex Mex, and most spicy foods. 😊

Cowboy Kent is a master at cooking outdoors. His cooking techniques are how things were done on cattle drives a long time ago. Not only can he cook authentic recipes from the days of the cattle drives, but he also cooks modern day foods using the limitations of Bertha and not having a proper stove. He can use a Dutch oven and coals to mimic how a stove cooks. You should check out some of his videos. I've seen him try to use flour or other powders like corn starch on a windy day. He can't actually measure the stuff because it's being blown all over the place, so he just eyeballs it and it always seems to work. Sometimes it's just hilarious.

Personally, I adore Japanese food, but I have to give it to my own heritage. My favorite is monkfish rice - it's a Portuguese dish, and it uses a native type of starchy rice, called 'Carolino' - it gives the recipe a creaminess similar to risotto. It's fairly simple to cook: make a sofrito just with onions and olive oil, add fresh tomatoes (I like to use Coração de Boi - I don't know how this species of tomatoes translates to English), and once the tomatoes break down completely, add the monkfish cut into cubes and add fish stock (I also like to add prawns to my fish stock), and let it simmer until the fish is cooked through. Add the rice, lower your fire to a minimum, and let it simmer. Once the rice is cooked, add the cooked prawns, deshelled, and freshly chopped cilantro. I'd advise you to measure the stock as well as the rice, in order to have it perfect - I use 3 parts liquid to 1 part rice (3 cups fish stock to 1 cup of rice). This needs to be served once it's done since the rice has a tendency to become mushy.

Celery and Onions I can see in fried rice as it can add flavor and texture. It's not common, but I can see it. If he absolute had to include celery and onions as flavor, it should have the solids strained out, or better yet use celery seed and onion powder. Add the flavor without the questionable chunks. Butter shouldn't be used as it would burn if stir frying at high heat. Ghee would be more appropriate but I'm not sure I like the idea of ghee and sesame oil. Lastly, Sesame Oil is a very aromatic oil that I feel should be strictly as a finishing oil before serving. Any time I've added sesame oil to early when cooking, I find the aroma and potency is lost from the cooking process.

The part about seed and powder is more a matter of texture than taste tho. Arguably seed wouldn't really change much in taste, but I would argue that most ready bought onion powders would taste differently (for better or worse, we like different things which professionals and enthusiasts alike forget a lot ^^). I'm personally a BIG fan of chewy food, especially vegetables. To me egg fried rice ALWAYS include some kind of vegetable that adds texture, most of the time that vegetable is onion :)
@dragonbretheren 2 жыл бұрын
Another alternative would be to finely dice/mince the onion and use it as a "western substitute" for garlic as an aromatic root veggie (since he's going for the east/west fusion angle). Start sweating it down early with the mushrooms to bring out the earthy flavors just before adding the rice. The celery is a bit weird to me, but I could see an argument for boiling it into the homemade teriyaki sauce to incorporate the celery flavor, then straining out the chunks from the finished sauce. IMO the fibrous crunch of fresh/raw celery is a bit too much texture difference from the rice and egg.

@@Micras08 I think you're right about the onion powder (though I do use it a lot, it's just not a 'regular' onion taste). Celery seed (or celery salt in some cases) I find adds the flavour that I want. For sauces and dry rubs I don't really want a full celery flavour, just the slight sweet/earthiness that it brings, so celery seed works for that. To me, it just augments some of the other spices like sumac and ancho pepper. Adds sweetness without adding sugars...

My favorite is pork chops in cream (raw potato dollars, black pepper, salt, pork chops, whipped cream... some add onions), in layers (2 of potatoes, 1 of meat, another 2 of potatoes, pepper+more salt on every layer, pour the cream over it... or possible to have meat layer at top for more dry and crunchy pork chops), bake in the oven 230°C for 45-50 minutes. Simple recipe. Cooking this up almost every weekend for one day. Also, didn't play Oregon Trail but it seems it's free online in web browser. Though not sure if you can save the progress.

Loved your insights in this reaction. I do think the sauce wasn't too bad but might have better if the celery was softened more given the limitations of the tools he was working with. Though a pre-made sauce would have been better in those circumstances. 😅 Here's an odd question: is it weird that I like cooking my rice with a bullion cube in it before making my very non-traditional version of egg fried rice, which I also tend to just use frozen peas and carrots for? 🤔 Hmm... Honestly, as a born and raised New Yorker of Puerto Rican desent (with a mother who cooked traditional Puerto Rican foods), it would be extremely difficult to choose a favorite dish, especially as my mother often accused me of being switched at the hospital with an Italian baby given how much I love pasta dishes and pizza, lol. That said, nothing comforts me more than a slice of NY pizza with bacon or traditional Puerto Rican holiday foods such as pernil asado, arroz con gandules y pasteles (especially with some flan for dessert and some coquito to end the night, lol) or alcapurias. However, put a bowl of shrimp or chicken fettuccine in front of me and watch it miraculously vanish instantly! 😂👍

Like you I have a hard time finding a 'favorite' food due to getting sick of eating the same stuff every time. So while it's not my absolute favorite all the time, I can eat banh mi everyday and not be sick of it. There's just something about the mix of flavor, textures and spices that can keep me going back for more. During college I ate one every other day for lunch cause it was like $4 for it. My favorite cuisine is definitely Chinese food though. There's just so many varieties of Chinese food that you can't really get sick of it. In my opinion Guangdong > Hunan > Dongbei are my top 3 regional foods with Xian/Shanghai/Nanjing following close behind.

10:37 Hi Chef James, Indonesian here. I've tried using butter (Elle & Vire, the best brand here) and the poor man's version, the margarine (Blue Band brand) for my fried rice/Nasi Goreng. My experience is, when I use the butter to sauté the spices/seasoning at the beginning, the aroma that comes out is more fragrant. The bad thing about using butter or margarine, is that melted oils and fats will "harden" or "solidifies" back more quickly when cold or for later meals, and tend to go rancid faster than using palm oil. the best "authentic" versions, and all street food versions here use palm oil (like Bimoli, Filma, Sunco, etc.)

Easy, dungness crab. I ran a crab canary in washington for a few years and was also a commercial crab fisherman out of westport. Every time we came to port to offload, I would get to take 2 five gallon buckets into the hold and fill them with the best 2+ pound crab that you could imagine. I take a big pot and boil them in the same seawater they came from. No added salt no dipping butter. Just sweet, savory amazing dungness crab meat. Id be honored to make it for you someday James.

Kent chose to cook EGG fried rice instead of BEEF fried rice. Kent, you've CATTLE all over the place, their tasty! Use THEM! Save the eggs for breakfast. Kent's familiarity with cast iron would easily transfer to the care and feeding of a carbon steel wok. Those woks are extremely versatile and they're lighter than cast iron. By and large, woks require blast furnace temps to work their magic. Butter would NOT be my first choice at cooking in such extreme heat. I kinda wish Uncle Roger would pay a visit to Kent's abode. Roger could show Kent how to cook fried rice, Kent could introduce Roger to cowboy cooking, riding horses, herding cattle and all the Lore that springs up in that part of the U.S.

i like using butter for a simple fried rice at home. it adds a nice richness, and the final product feels more like a meal than a side dish. obviously it's not traditional, but some asian restaurants do use butter for their fried rice (japanese steakhouses in particular). on a home stove burning butter is less of a concern as long as you are staying on top of things :)
