I have watched so many of your videos. I love them all! I have been able to change up my meals at home. I was stuck with preparing the same things every week.

Y caramel was bitter

Can you tell an alternative to oven ?? If not oven then how to cook it?

How long do these keep in the fridge?

Can you cook these in a sous vide? If so, what temp?

It's like he's in my mind.. Not one but TWO. Well at least he showed some restraint saving the remaining for the videos sake

😂

i laughed so hard hahaha

I just love his humour to bits. Love this man.

Missed this one. Really funny

La Tanya Omg he is funny!

hahaha, same boat man, working on my thesis, and here I am lol

+DOGE I finished my last major project yesterday, and will do finals next week. So I will probably be making (procrastinating) custard while I study this weekend.

doge is that you?

Same here...nursing finals coming up and here I am, studying a custard recipe.

+DOGE You're not the only one, haha!

Im raising my hands as I feel those few words.

truer words were never spoken if it comes to cooking

I discovered a really cool trick to cleaning strainers, microplanes, cheese graters, anything with small holes... *a potato scrubber.* The bristles are tough and they get into every nook and cranny, and it doesn't shred your sponge or fingers! Quick and easy too! You can thank me later 😉

Strainers are no problem as long as you wash them immediately, with hot water. Give them no time to start drying and sticking.

+SkitHertz You're welcome! Now, go ace those tests and make us all proud.

+Food Wishes but the problem is that I am not studying and just watching your videos... :(

+Food Wishes I aced it! Woo hoo!

I'm proud of you

I agree!

+itsGLOtime, yes, they are so---perky.

+Christine King ........????!!!!!

The picture of you just sitting there is oddly satisfying. Wish there was more 😔

it's like the complete opposite of trypophobia.. here's a cool video of egg yolks kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eamom8Sl1qrPe3U.html

+TheGreenRoom I'm more of a Guia La Bruna guy, but well played.

Whoa! You know your (expensive) lingerie, Chef John! Guess I shouldn't be surprised... ;-)

+Food Wishes I wish u were my dad and I love ur voice good job on the vid see ya next time

+Food Wishes Flustered by custard. The lyrical cook of the ages.

Food Wishes love that brand too but sooo expensive.

+Ben Geile i'll use that next time.

Old Mother Hubbard of your Caramel Custard. :-D

LOL thats a good one! :)

I love this channels youtube comments

or the Custer of my Custard, or the Rommel of my Caramel.

LMAOOOOOO

Beau Cantrell IM SCREAMING (so was she badum tsssss)

So. Did any air bubbles come out? Inquiring minds want to know. LOL

You were the Michael Flynn of putting it in.

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

He did it

🤣🤣🤣

I came across malt vinegar salt on a menu recently! Hahahaha

+Megan Smith No, thank you!

+Megan Smith My nine and five year olds (and I) are similar. We're making this custard tonight.

this may sound odd, but my cat loves your voice. every time you upload a new video, and I watch it, my cat Whiskey comes barreling out from wherever she has been and curls up to watch with me.

My better half and I as well! We're watching right now!

+Megan Smith Same!

Hi :)

Did you make it?

Cookedbyjulie III

Yep , another safe way to pick them up

+jus4funtim What we're saying is use whatever tongs you can comfortably get the ramekin to the intended place with. Adapt to your own dexterity level.

Dexterity has nothing to do with the issue. It's the way some tongs are made. Some don't have a big enough scoop or the angle at which they come together aren't adequate to pick up a ramekin.

True enough, but with enough practice, you can pick up just about anything you need to with any tongs.

If you want to waste your time practiceing with a bad set of tongs, Knock yourself out. I've got a can of paint for you that needs shaking till the balls stop rattling.

You should put boiling cream

YES

OMG! You're the first person in ten years who ever noticed that. You're amazing!

It annoyed me so much through the video 😂

I love how he talks

notahotshot that’s really funny, this is the first video of his I have watched

He has another video on caramel sauce. His conclusion, why preheat the cream and clean another pot when you can just stir the crystals into the cream without problems.

At a basic level, table salt generally has iodine, and is square crystals. Also often contains a very minute additive to prevent clumping, so it'll pour, IIRC cream of tartar. Kosher salt can vary in shape between brands, so measures by volume impart different levels of saltiness to a recipe. Also no additives, I believe. Mortons is less salt per volume, IIRC. Diamond crystal is pyramid shaped, and clumps under pressure. It the crushes well between fingers, so it's good for taking a pinch, and sprinkling on food. Then there's sea salt, like he garnished with. Much larger pieces, for visual appeal and texture when eating.

+mlindholm thank you. Here in the uk we don't call anything kosher salt, so I've always wanted to ask this question.

+mlindholm thanks for explaining the difference. You didn't mention pink himalayan salt. +food wishes

+Rose H Himalayan pink salt is one of those maaaaany different varieties of "not the usual baking/cooking salts". Pink is due to the contaminants it contains (other than sodium chloride and additives like iodine and anti-clumping agents), giving it visual or taste appeal. Due to this, it's more often used as a garnish on foods or a table salt, rather than a during-the-cooking ingredient.

+Robin Betts in uk its called maldon salt

Omg yes I second that

+Sarah M You're on. Also, you can heat cream, but why dirty another pot for nothing?

+Food Wishes Gotcha, kinda expected that answer! And I'm so serious about that meet and greet, I'd find my way there. Thanks!

Chef John! Do a meet and greet and I'll walk from San Francisco to San Francisco!

+Dwayne Wladyka Ah where do you live im in Ottawa and its already 1 :30am

it's 1:30 am where I am and now I have a craving... god

hey im canadian

Reema Radia Alberta.

Dwayne Wladyka Oh mY goD right when I saw this comment it just turned 11 pm here in Vancouver

Ikr dessert all dayyy

@@deviraja914 His main courses are just as delicious!

taehyungie personally cant stand it

For sure you could.

Damn homie!!!

im pretty sure its just a speech impediment? or whatever the word for it would be. similar to the burger king foot lettuce guy.

Brandon Johnson that’s not what a speech impediment is. those are things like lisps and pronouncing an r as a w.... etc.

@@taurus3654 ur right but idk the name for it thats why i said 'or whatever the word for it would be"

@@brandonj9795 just an FYI, CHILLS doesn't have a speech impediment. He just reads at a 3rd grade level. lol

Ntandokazi Mngomeni I don’t know ANYBODY who reads like that, and there are many slow readers in my English class..... 😭😭😭

Go for it and report back with results!

+Dreamy Elf That's a good question! I hope someone has an answer cause I'm curious myself!

+Dreamy Elf Try it and see. Let us know how it turns out.

+Dreamy Elf You'd most likely get frozen custard. Ice cream is just milk/cream based, no eggs involved. But frozen custard is creamier and thicker, kinda similar to gelato. So yeah if you put this mix in an ice cream maker/freezer you should get some frozen custard c:

my life would be complete. i'd still call it ice cream.

+Overactivedreamer, no!

Fuck vegan recipes!

I love these videos and would love a vegan recipe that I can try

I'd love to see that too

Warrior Son, best comment ever! :D

No. The dude is amazing. If you listen carefully, you’ll get why. The first video I watched - I was a touch annoyed, too. Then I saw more and realized the man is so informative, funny, and, well, just nice. Now can’t get enough.

circle2and5 He can be informative, nice and funny without sounding like an idiot, you know? Nobody speaks like this…

miXn No need to be hatin’ someone just for who they naturally are.

@@miXn what the fuck do you mean by that, obviously he does, no need to be a dickhead for no reason. If you hate it so much then just fuck off.

No, not at all, We love Chef John. And we're not aholes and want to control everythign about everybody.

I forgot I don't have a girlfriend ):

CShizi why not?

zavia romanova because its annoying as fuck
