Except he is already saying bs here. Salt is used as the abbressive not for keeping it together. Same stuff with his salt eggs before bs which has been disproven.
@@DovaDudebut I think on one of his other show he explained about the salt being an abrasive too. But maybe it does help soak up some of the juice too. Because I've tried mincing onion that way without the salt and it looks very different besides hes barely rubbing it with the salt or chopping it. I'm actually surprised if it's so fine it becomes pasty.
The school of thought at the moment is to demonstrate, then explain on the second time. People generally can't focus on the demonstration and the explanation at the same time. So, they ask for it to be repeated, again and again, because they focus a bit on the demonstration, then a bit on the explanation and miss out on information every time.
Love it when Gordon gets angry at Restaurant owners who are neglectful or ignorant to their workers. It's cool to see Ramsay stick up for the workers in his shows.
I can tell a lot of people in these comments haven’t worked in a kitchen considering they think that’s a lot of salt, that’s a pretty normal amount if you’re making a quick garlic paste like this. If I’m being overly technical it’s not minced considering the size of those chunks of garlic too but if you need it quick then this is great. If you’re really concerned about salt levels, just add less elsewhere, it’s fine.

Someone could write a whole article about this. But here's Gordon coming in and making things easy. Was able to get straight into my cooking and get a good result.
When I went through chef school, I was taught how to do this in the exact same way. When the instructor (with 40 years of experience under his belt) poured the same amount of salt, a guy at the back of the class (with zero years of experience) exclaimed: " Whoa! That's too much salt." The instructor Just laughed and responded and his thick French accent: "calm down sweetie. I know what I'm doing here." Seasoning with salt is the last thing you do. If you do your garlic this way, you just adjust less salt.
That's not a lot of salt. You shouldn't be using salt as a regular seasoning, it's to enhance flavor not add the salty flavor lol. Not to mention that amount of garlic isn't going into say, a single burger worth of meat.
What people don't realize is these are just as good for him as to us lowly people, he gets to keep the skills he learned years back fresh by demonstrating them.
I like seeing gordan in this teach style esk form of video instead of all the bells and whistles of him being stressed out yelling and angry all the time it’s nice to see him being more genuine and calm 🤠👍
I had a garlic press, but hated cleaning it out after every use. That is when i started using a real kitchen knife. The salt and 2nd round of pressing are new to me. (First round can be done in the husk, makes it easier to take it off). Thank you for being a teacher Gordon!

@@josephbolton5199 dont think so deep, garlic has liquid content salt has sodium "where there is sodium, water always flows towards it" pretty sure this should be able to explain ya
@@josephbolton5199. Still, it’s a good idea to know how to mince garlic without the salt. I’ll never tire of watching Jacques Pépin do his rapid slice and dice . Happy cooking !
Actually, salt is what encourages moisture to leave the garlic clove. The natural oils in the garlic are what bind it as your grinding it. Salt is just an abrasive medium
That wasnt even slightly minced! You can see big chunks of garlic! Do the same but mince and press alot more and add a tiny bit of olive oil. That way you get garlic paste.
If I use a kitchen knife to cut garlic with small crystals of salt, am I not basically dulling the blade faster than garlic without salt? I doubt all that salt can be dissolved before the mince is finished.
Everyone in the comments seems to be pressed about how much salt he used, when I’m over here like “HE REALLY JUST SCRAPED HIS BLADE ACROSS THE CUTTING BOARD TO SCOOP 🤯🤯🤯”
Ha! I’ve been talking myself out of a garlic press and almost broke down to order one online today. I guess it can wait until I’m in a store and it’s too good to pass up. 😂 (besides, today’s recipe calls for whole cloves ;))
He always looks so happy to show someone something

@@mranima748 I didn't say it was bad
*The way they do it in Goodfellas is FAR superior!* 😀
Gordon is the dictionary definition of being a master of your art, and being able to show why you're a master of your art.
Except he's wrong about the salt, it's for the abrasiveness
Except he is already saying bs here. Salt is used as the abbressive not for keeping it together. Same stuff with his salt eggs before bs which has been disproven.

Love seeing the chill side of Gordon. The angry side is entertaining af but here i can feel that love he has for food and cooking.
Watch his cooking shows then
The UK version of Kitchen Nightmares was closer to this. Plus, it wasn't over produced.
Love it when Gordon gets angry at Restaurant owners who are neglectful or ignorant to their workers. It's cool to see Ramsay stick up for the workers in his shows.
I love the way he explains any technique, no bs, no fillers, concise and straight to the point..

It's also kosher salt. If you're not used to using it, it looks like he used a lot more than he actually used.
Question: "How do you mince, without a press?"
Gordon: *First thing you do is press*
the word press are used in two different meanings… if you don’t understand the meanings, please go to school

I love his touch of salt
Proceeds to put a handful in 😂😂😂😂
It was his choice to use that much of salt
Or his portion of olive oil 😂
"Two shots of vodka"
He's the TRUE Salt Bae 😉
''touch of salt'' BRUH
more like a jaw-breaker punch of salt

Your food must be bland
Paulie had a wonderfull system, he'd slice the garlic so thin it would liquefy in the pan with just a little oil
With a single edged razor blade! 😉
It was a very good system
The best system😂
If someone on one of his reality shows asked him the same question, I feel like the vibe would be.... different
I adore this man & have for years & years...
Me too! I wanna go to Atlantic City to his restaurant. Since I’m on the east coast, that’s the only one even a little close to me
@@allisondunphy9194Oh my God, just to taste his Wellington would be heavenly!
That’s one heavy touch with the salt there gord-o
Hope the salt in the recipe is adjusted, else they are in for a surprise
You don’t eat it raw you cook with it, I would hope you could figure this out before commenting this
I thought so as well, but a good chef is like a barber, i.e you can always add more, you can't take away. Adjust accordingly.
That was a pinch 😂 you would barley taste is after cooking
in the kitchen a pinch of salt is actually pretty large .
I never knew the salt trick!!! Good one

Shocked a great chef like GR didn't get a 1 out of 10 review 😂.

The salt and 2nd round of pressing are new to me. (First round can be done in the husk, makes it easier to take it off).
Thank you for being a teacher Gordon!
I bought a garlic press that had a piece that would clean out the holes!
Being good at something is one thing but being able to teach that to others is a feat all on its own.
Well, if you don't pay attention to him and learn, Chef will yell at you, lol....
“Touch of salt” … more like all the salt I put in a 4 person meal
I like the part where he hits the knife so hard, one clove turned into 3
In the mixer with olive oil and parsley, salt and pepper.
Gordon is the type of teacher u always wana listen to in school when he starts teachering
Love the teachering. I’m stealing that ;))
I use a small hand grater...
Works well for me...
I like the way Jacques pepin does it where he rocks the knife back and forth a million miles an hour
One thing about Ramsey, he gone season every ingredient 🙌🏽👏🏽😋
“Pinch of salt” proceeds to put an entire daily recommended amount on the clove of garlic 😂
I've been around garlic since elementary days, but I've never seen someone put enough salt to exorcise demons in one garlic clove than this video.
there was so much salt i that aaaaaah

10 seconds??? Here I am 30 minutes later trying to mince 2 cloves 😂
How do you mince garlic?
Get a teaspoon and scoop it out of the jar.😂😂😂
Sorry, I will see myself out.
Using that immediately.
Ok. I just learned something I didn't even know I needed to know. But now I know.
For marinades and salad dressings, I've taken to using the microplane. Works great and is easier than using a knife.
Actually, salt is what encourages moisture to leave the garlic clove. The natural oils in the garlic are what bind it as your grinding it. Salt is just an abrasive medium
Bruuuh he's so serious
Cos I'd laughed while reading it 😂😂
Crushed & chopped now they calling it minced 😂
Excellent question! Beautiful execution!🥰
Never realized the salt. Will be doing this later!!
Well he just pressed it with the knife 😂
Correction: he crushed it!!!
Easy. You just use a push instead.
He’d be a good chef
Never thought of the salt going to try that next time
He's really a great dude. The pissed off thing he does is for the shows and dinner rushes
Touch of salt, proceeds to use what my mother would call an egregious amount of salt
The Half-Blood Prince method
Sometimes he makes me question his cooking, that garlic wasnt minced it was big chunks
Roasting garlic with only a toaster oven
i feel like having a kidney disease with that amount of salt
I love Chef Ramsay he is the best👍
I never thought of adding salt! 😮
That "Good Question" at the end is 🔥🤤🫠
How to mince ginger?!?!?
GR : Leaves for Ireland.
🤣🤣🤣
I learned this trick somewhere before but I didn’t realize I need to use salt as well, thank you for the knowledge🤙🏻
"TOUCH" of salt...🧐
I buy a jar of minced garlic.
I've been missing the salt all this time. Taking this knowledge into my kitchen
Congratulation! You now made youself a salty garlic paste!
Stunning
Chopping salt isn't blade friendly especially table salt.
Yes, but it's different when you have sponsors That buy you a new knife for literally every time you use one
When he was riding the skateboard the arena so dark and empty
I never knew about the salt part. No wonder it's not been working as well.
Im surprised he actually taught her how instead of cussing at her for not even knowing how to mince garlic
Fine side on a cheese grater works too
That wasnt even slightly minced! You can see big chunks of garlic! Do the same but mince and press alot more and add a tiny bit of olive oil. That way you get garlic paste.
It only took 7 years but now she knoes

As a previous chef I never did this. Great idea but it can naff your knife.
Some reason I thought he'd be kind of offended by such a simple question
Why does this look like brads going to come out of no where and take over the show.
Looks like the old Bon Appetit kitchen.
minced garlic? I open the jar
...am I the only one here who's not a bot?
Yes
Oh, someone else noticed it too!
Yes
No!
I had no idea to put salt on it.
Touch of salt? Now there's no garlic
Gordon in the BA Test Kitchen. Feels weird
Some chefs on Masterchef should watch this. Especially the ones who use whole cloves of garlic
Thank you Gordon!
the salt is a neat trick, will have to try it
Meat tenderiser squash and twist
Just when i thought i knew what to do with garlic now ill remember to salt it
If the recipe calls for salt. Just use the salted garlic 🤣
that only works if your garlic is very fresh.
That's a very specific question that if you have the awareness to ask it, you probably already know the answer.
Wired in the BA kitchen?
They're both owned by Conde Nast. Glad someone else saw it. I was waiting for Brad to turn up!
Ok Gordon. You good.
I'm surprised he didn't season the knife
