I can feel Kenji’s smirk as he’s making those beet jokes 😂

i love cooking dad channel

“Beets cannot be bested... bettered.... there’s a word for it” Alton Kenji Brown ladies and gentlemen

"can feel it on my fingertips", this guys good

Was watching this video with my fiancé. Kenji says “I can hear the water police now but I’ll be quick” my fiancé says “uh, that’s called the coast guard” then proceeded to laugh uncontrollably for the next 5 minutes.

Kenji: "let them fall where they may" Also Kenji: *gently places orange where he wants*

kenji makes the most amazing looking food and he also makes the worst dad jokes imaginable

"There's a word for it." Oh you.

dam that edit at the end got me laughing so hard it hurts

Kenji: "anything that goes well with citrus goes well with beets" Me: puts beets in my Cuba libre

Oh he started to lurk into meme town here

"I sneezed on the beet and the beet got sicker." Kenji-yonce, 2020

A common way to cook Beets in South india, is to cut it into small cubes/grated , boil/microwave/roast it until soft then saute with either spices or coconut. It'll go crispy chewy and incredibly sweet. Well made beets are one of lifes greatest pleasures

this isn't one of my favorite kenji recipes, but it's absolutely one of my favorite kenji videos. The beet puns, the fruit lesson, the whisking-in-towel-pot hack, the additional puns...we've gone full kenji on this one

"What is that word, I can feel it at my fingertips..." as he's holding the damn beet. Well played, sir.

My evening doesn’t start until the Kenji show is on!

Fact: Bears eat beets.

“Beets that don’t suck” - Borsch, basically

Shabu at the end: DROP THE BEET

Beets in my country are rounder. They look almost like the pictures of turnips I've seen, but beet colored. We cook them by cutting them into a small dice, around 3 mm, and stir frying with salt, chilly powder, and sputtered mustard seeds and curry leaves!

Here is another good use for beets. If you like horseradish as a condiment, look up Polish recipe for Horseradish with Beets (Ćwikła z Chrzanem)

My Google search history: lavne lagne lahne lione labne ffs

Anybody else inhale when he brought the warm beets up to the camera

These videos are every bit as educational and entertaining as the big budget highly edited ones... good teaching!!

Thank you so much for sharing your cooking process and recipes, Kenji! I'm a huge fan, and loved my time at Wursthall when I had a chance to visit a couple years ago! Just made this beet recipe this afternoon, and am blown away by how amazing it tastes...thank you for also approaching cooking with such a scientific mind (and guiding me through Thanksgiving 2019 with The Food Lab book), and making the process less intimidating and fun for a complete beginner like myself. Wishing you continued success and wellness, and looking forward to more publications (in literature, video, and any other format) in the future!

"It just can't be..." *MUSIC PLAYS* Kenji, you smooth son of a...

Kenji I've just been binge-watching your vids and they are just great, thanks for the content!

Had to pause at 0:55 seconds to pay respects to the punning. Glorious.

We also out grated beets in our mac'n'cheese sometimes to further the lie that we're eating a healthy meal lol.

I love that you have been teaching your daughter the eccentric name for common food items. Hopefully once she makes it through middle school she'll learn to appreciate it later in life.

It's amazing how many good pairings there are for beets! One of my favourites is beets with anise/fennel/licorice flavours. Also roasting beets until they go black and then letting them soften back up in olive oil ... they get this amazing mellow flavour of dark caramel! Also beets with smoky flavours. Also beets with pine oil and pine shoots. Also ... etc

Dwight shrute : You mean all of them? *Fancy smirk*

"Beats can't be... Bested. Ah can't think of the word for it." Lmao I laughed out loud so early in this video

funniest cooking video on the internet. Thank you Kenji for putting a smile on my face!

Good to see someone cook with beets. My family raised beets in our garden, so I think they are great. Good for you to show beet recipes

"defeated in melee combat" was what i thought you were looking for

Having had an inexplicable perversion for beets for as long as I can remember, my quest for beets that *do suck* continues.

Hated beets when I was younger, now I am a huge fan. Thanks for featuring them.

:o the editing! you've really upped your game in quarantine man :)

Why is the “ cant be bettered “ joke so amusing🤣🤣

i wish i was exaggerating but this beet recipe changed my life!!! soooooo so good.... i am now a beet lover i see why you were so hype kenji

Samin Nosrat uses a similar technique for a beet, avocado, and citrus salad in her Salt Fat Acid Heat cookbook. And it is also awesome.

I chose the right thing to watch tonight. In a bad mood and your dad jokes cracked me up! Thanks (for the cooking tips, too)

i live for the end of every video when he feeds his dogs.

Making my morning everyday Mr. Kenji

This salad's gonna be a big hit. It's got a good beet and you can dance to it

ive been making so many beet salads lately!! i use jarred beets from trader joes but they're still delicious. i use spring mix, beets, strawberries, blueberries, roasted pine nuts, and goat cheese with a shallot salad dressing. sooo good

Beets are my favourite too! Definitely gonna make this for my work lunches!

Dwight Schrute approves of this video

11:00 At first I was shouting "BEET-EN" at the screen like watching Dora the explorer...

The dad jokes are amazing, had me laughing out loud.

“Honey is sweet but doesn’t compete with the sweetness of the beet”

Soooooo many dad jokes. Thanks chef, I needed a chuckle. Also I totally agree with the 'dirt candy' description, tho it is not great for marketing.

The pan, towel, whisk trick was pretty boss. Way better than my approach of putting it in a small dish with a lid and shaking it

Kenji with the "can't be beat" dad jokes! 🤣💙 roasted beets are delicious! only caveat- it's going to make your 💩 a red colour. don't be scared the day after 😅

Love your style. You crack me up...taunting your viewers about your star ingredient...nothing "beets" it. Fun and funny. Thanks.

A great find. So simple even hubby managed to do it!!

Damn wanted to write Bears beets battlestar galactica But people anticipated me

These dad jokes made my day. We need more videos because I've been going through them like ...like... Ah forget it. I'll leave the jokes to Kenji.

great video Kenji

"i can feel it at the tip of my fingers" is your best dad joke yet lol

Terrific video! I really enjoyed it 👌

I worked at a restaurant with a really good Beet salad with arugula, goat cheese, blood orange supreme, a fennel pistachio brittle and a simple oil/red wine vin dressing

My son also watches that show. Never liked beets before, so I might try this.

You're recipes can't be.... What is the word I'm looking for??? Topped? Nope. Bettered? Not that.... Ah, i know - Beeten :))

Hahaha that edit at the end is gold!

Tu sentido comun para la cocina es superb, aprendi a espolvorear azúcar con un filtro para té, a limpiar cazuelas, a ir pesando ingredientes en vez de medirlos etc etc tengo 40 años cocinando y nunca había podido limpiar así de bien mis cazuelas, gracias por dar detalles al ir dando recetas, escribi mi observacion antes de terminar de ver el video porque ya habia visto otros dos, ya despues vi que eres un masterchef, mira que ser llamado por MIT, pare a ver tus videos por el nombre japones jokoi y lopez, hay otro jokoi kenji diaz aqui en KZfaq pero es social counselor colombian japonés

I'll bet pomegranate molasses would be a great substitute for the honey.

Kenji I love you man I'm so glad you didn't do the dad joke lol

That better/best bit was probably my favourite joke you’ve ever made

I think steaming is actually the best way to cook beets. Just in a regular steamer. They're fantastic.

Fantastic jokes. Simply cannot be surpassed.

Just awesome

Mastering the snap edit. I like

I had an Australian cook in a mining camp and he made beats a whole hell of a lot. 2nd or 3rd time ever for me. Love them now

My go to for beets is to cube them up, combine with oil and a generous amount of salt and roast at 400 for 15 to 20 minutes, stir them up and back in the oven until nicely browned. Delicious!

I could hear you fighting all the Dad jokes! Hahaha the end music was great. Oh btw, idk why but I peel my beets with a carrot peeler before the tin foil. Seems to infuse the herbs into the beet meat better. Cheers!

Kenji's whisking skills are underrated

I’m making a version of this tonight with goat cheese! Thanks for the inspiration Kenji!

I like the “spoon and finger” approach too

cant be finessed! thats the word? lol i accidently found you searching for something else. came here from pintrest, I am Russian so we eat beats anyway , but, with this recipe...boy, am I gonna have a field day with this!

I'm probably not gonna make it for myself (not a fan of citrus or onion, but like beets), but I'd definitely make it for guests! Looks good. (I like how the dog comes in and goes away a few times like "hello pa is in the kitchen food??")

Thank you for this fantastic way of baking beets. I hate seeing the juice coming out of them in the water 💧

* Dwight Schrute wants your location *

Up here in Alaska, I like grilled beets. Usually on the same grill as salmon. Brush with olive oil, kosher salt and grill 1/8 inch beet slices.

I really love Beet salat. Just raw and grated. With a simple Vinagrette, litlle bit Garlic and Onion.😋

I love this

Incredible beet related dad humor on this one lol

Beets salad is the only salad I order at a restaurant. Love it with goat cheese, toasted walnut pieces and arugula.

whoever thought it was okay to bring beet egg salad to a potluck got sent home early

he's flexing that watermelon bruh... i cant wait for them to be in season again here.. been so long *cries*

Love beets! I've never tried them in a foil bag like that.

Kenji makes beets beetter. LOL 🤣

that low cutting board angle is great

Great job on the snap edit :)

I used to eat the pith on thick skinned oranges. It’s slightly sweet and no bitterness unless you get close to the orange part. Made the orange last longer.

0:43 I chuckled. Love you Kenji

Also if you get your beets with the greens still on them you can rub them down with olive oil and a little salt and pepper and roast them in the oven similar to making kale chips

Made this tonight with goat Gouda and arugula. Amazing! Thanks Kenji

It's like he's coming up from underwater at the beginning of these videos.
