Chef john. Today it happened. I was reading a recipe and it called for "freshly ground black pepper" and I couldnt read it without hearing your sing song voice in my head. I'm officially brainwashed. And I love it.
For those playing the home game, that's FRESHly ground black pepper.
Omg I just read it like that before i'd even finished reading your comment.
Christina Meek It's contagious! I got it too!
etodd472 Hahaahaaa! And did you read that in your head as ‘ffffffreshly’? I’ve got it as well....😊
Chef John! I want to let you know that I have learned so so so much about how to cook from you, and I am forever grateful! Keep up the amazing work!
with much appreciation and brotherly love,
Jim from Chicago
Ima do mine with pistachios.
LMAO I don't use a candy thermometer... mostly because I don't have a candy thermometer. Story of my life.
You're the only cooking show thingy I can ever watch
I suggest you toast the seeds in a 350 oven for 1to-12 minutes. Toasted pumpkin seeds are so much more yummy..
then it wont be green and look like solidified puke
The raw seeds roast nicely in the 290ish F. sugar, and you get a beautiful sweet flavor, rather than an overly roasted one, but to each his own!

You are the Mr. Deeds of your seeds, after all.
+Henric von Winklebottom that's a good one :)
Achdus5774 when does your tutorials start?
Chef John. You are an absolute genius. Greetings from Amsterdam.
You Sir, are AWESOME!
Take a bow, whilst we bask in your natural wonder.
"Makes enough Pumpkin Seed Brittle for 12 witches or 8 zombies"
What did you do with the miniature cadaver? Where is the corpse, chef John?
Gone green with mold and broken into small pieces...
You're videos are everything that is right with the world!
I think that Chef John could write a book with his many catchy phrases
best tv chef ever!
hello, chef john, I made this pumpkin seed brittle today, it is extremely delicious my family and friends love it. by the way, I poured the hot brittle directly onto dry parchment paper and used a second sheet of parchment paper on top and pressed it flat with an iron skillet it worked perfectly and did not stick at all.
thank you for the delicious recipe.
It is only the popularity of Chef John that can allow a video to have 301 views and 515 likes. Great work CJ!!!
Nicely done. Pumpkin seeds are under utilized.
I need this in my life... like right now.
First Mark Rypien, now Y.A. Tittle? The QB pun award goes to Chef John.
I watch your videos and now I can't deal.
Must make this next time!
Trick AND treat! I love it.
this man can tell jokes and cook at the same time, to me that is awesome
You know Chef John is an OG from the bay when he says "syyyrrrp"
I respect Chef John even more because he DOESN'T have a candy thermometer.
Love this one i have never seen it done with pumpkin seeds,and i make it every year for my kids il have to try this one.....
Love the coffin!! Perfect presentation..love pumpkin seeds, eat them everyday!
... He.just really makes my day and i don't know why ...
Such a great recipe! I'm definitely going to try this! I'm a sucker for anything with pumpkin seeds...
I LOVE this recipe - wow! Thanks Chef - can't wait to try this one. Now... where to find a mini wooden coffin...
Do they sell those in Canada? If someone who knew about carpentry made one.
Michael's or any craft store should carry.

Google is your friend.
That looks like an awesome brittle, John!
I Have Been waiting for this.... THANKS !!!
Thank you Chef John for all of your pumpkin recipies! I love all things pumpkin! Pumpkin seed brittle? Oh...my...gosh. I have to make & eat this. Pumpkin seeds are my favorite seeds. Plus who doesn't love brittle? 3 degree burns? Worth.
for some reason the ending made me laugh a lot. u never fail to cheer me up
Appreciate your sense of humor, will try out this soon :D
Yum, I love pumpkin seeds. At Xmas time I make a lot of brittles and rocas. When I say "a lot" I mean about 30/40 pans worth! Not that I have so many friends (LoL) but rather the hubs is a supervisor at our local mill and has fun handing out the candy as gifts. Because I make so much of it at once I was looking for an easier method. The average size recipe such as chef John made (which i can't wait to try!) fits perfectly inside foil pizza pans. Makes for nice presentation wrapped in color cellophane too. The chef wasn't kidding, be ever so careful making this candy.. it's like hot lava!
Looks like a nice Samhain snack.
There is nothing wrong with high fructose corn syrup. It's just sugar with a slightly different taste. It's got almost the same fructose to glucose ratio as Sucrose (table sugar).
I could listen to you all day.......oh yeah.....and watch your awesome videos.:). Thanks for always sharing in a most entertaining way. wendy*
Nice recipe John! But what could I do if I can't find corn syrup? Here in Spain is very difficult to find (or it's crazy expensive).
Ay substitute? Just skip it? Surrender to the fact that I can't make this and cry all night?
I am soooooo making this. Just enjoyed your goulash recipe, which I made for the 6th time tonight again.
oh my God, I totally know this! this is like a street candy in Korea, that we used to see on every street (especially near to school) when I was young -now it's not quite common as it used to be -so sad. Anyways, it's dalgona, you can look it up on youtube :) Dalgona usually is in way smaller batches, round, and we just put a variety of shapes using a iron cookie-cutter-sort-of thing, and if I can get it to cut the candy into that shape, I would get one more for free! but it's so hard, since it really is brittle, so we used to use needles and every way possible for that. wow it brings so much memories
That's literally the cutest little coffin I've ever seen in my life
Ha ha ha, I just have to say, I do love your recipes have made a few of em here at home but I just love your laid back nature and just the fact that you make it fun with all the corny Jokes and easy going mannerism, keep em coming, thanks :-)
I can't wait to make this! Looks awesome :)
Puhkin...I love you Chef John.
Asian favorite traditional candy. Same method, but more treats. Roasted peanuts, sesame suger and maltose.
Wow it looks so much like "pé de moleque" (Brazilian candy) that I'm all willing to try this recipe with peanuts instead of pumpkin seeds.
Needs a layer of chocolate :P
Omg yessss
So you want to eat Daim? Because without the pumpkin seeds and with a chocolate layer that's what you get. I'm not 100% sure that's how they do it but it sure looks like it to me.
Mmmm...Daim..
Daim, Heath, Skor, etc. All toffee bars. They're similar but not quite the same. I make a hard toffee recipe with peanuts and a layer of chocolate, so I'm thinking this recipe will work just fine with a little chocolate.
Love this recipe! Only 1 thing i will add to this pumpkin pie spice. Chef John can you please make Turkish delight. There's lots of recipe for Turkish delight using Agar Agar,Gelatin,Cornstarch but lots of argument. Some says Agar Agar the best some Gelatin, some Cornstarch,few recipes uses real fruit puree, few fruit juice few only flavour & colour! I will love to see which one you prefer & a foolproof recipe as usual. Thank you
He is not lying about the burn. I have a good size scar on my right wrist from accidentally dropping a spoonful of peanut brittle on it. It stuck like glue and my wrist continued to cook. Third degree burn!
This looks great ! You are awesomely funny
My partner and I made Peanut Brittle with a similar recipe. We cooked it too long and used light syrup instead of corn, so it was much harder, but it got better the more days it just sat there.
While trying to transfer onto a baking sheet, since it was already hardening up, we tried pouring it really fast. In the confusion, I ended up getting some super hot string of brittle on my arm. Thankfully, I was a step away from the sink so not even a first degree burn happened. But I'm pretty sure I was super lucky since it had cooled down as we were transferring.
But be sure to be careful. This stuff is hot, sticky and can get everywhere if you are not prepared.
You are adorable chef! Pumpkin seeds are a super food so It cancels out the sugar LOL! Cheers dear :)
"Like none of this ever happened." And then I hear you laughing to yourself at how funny that was. I might do this with chopped almonds. Peanuts are so yesterday.
Looks delicious! I must try this
I have a pumpkin brittle recipe and in mine I use less nuts so that I can spread it out as thin as possible. I also add Saigon cinnamon, vanilla extract or you can add Chinese 5-spice. I mean what goes better with pumpkin than spices? The spices really compliment the pumpkin seeds and adds that special something that has people running back for more every time. I also add a little more extra baking soda so it get very airy and easier to eat. Oops! shouldn't have given away my secrets😳.
Okay loved this!
*Chef John*,
I don't know if it applies to every dish, but when I have something in that .*napalm stage* (melted, really hot and sticky sugar, pre-caramel) I realized that the more I cooked, less sweet the finished food got later... does it really happens all the time with sugar/caramel?
Thank you! Love your show! =)
Had to watch this a second time and comment again because it was bugging me. I worked in a candy store 38 years ago and made all kinds of candy and when we made any kind of brittle you needed to stretch it out so you can see your fingers through it on a marble table. If you leave it thick it's too hard to bite into, as if you were biting into a whole tootsie pop. It will break your teeth. Wear some good gloves or use some thongs and stretch it out as much as you can. you won't need to cut it because it will break up easily. That's my 2 cents anyway.
True that.
back in the day you needed to stretchcandys like that to work in air so it doesn't form a solid sugar crystal...but since the recipes now call for baking soda..soooooo..it does all the work for you! :P but you can only really do that with brittles XD
Clever recipe!
Wait a minute ! Where did you get that coffe Chef J? & I hope you make some more Halloween videos this season ! ❤
Could you do this with other nuts and/or seeds? Also, is there a particularly good combination you would recommend?
Thanks Papa Chef!
Hey,
could i substitute the corn syrup with honey or maple syrup? A regular german household has no corn syrup in the kitchen :D
Yes you can adjust with those ingredients...
I always used to use wax paper and now I use parchment paper to make all of my brittles.
For a brief moment i was like "What the actual f... cutting on a silpat?" but thanks god, chef jhon, you still a pro.
Oh I need this in my life....
Hey Chef! I do you think you can tell us what kind of camera you use for recording? Microphone? tripod? :)
Can I use toasted pumpkin seeds? I want to use the ones from the pumpkins we carve.
What can you use instead of the Corn syrup? we don't have such stuff in Europe.
Delicious!
So I can scarf down a bunch of pumpkin seeds after I drink 6 gallons of soda and they cancel out? Good to know.
Wow!
Chef John, I hope you have purchased a candy thermometer by now.
I like that, They canceled each other out. LOL
Is there something we can use instead of corn syrup? That thing is kinda rare in Europe
Looks yummy
Hii, I was wondering if you could do a healthier version of hummingbird cake? There's so much sugar, I'm getting diabetes thinking about it.
I made it. This is a very evil candy... I had some, it was delicious. Then I had some more and it started tasting metallic... like I'm eating iron. It was still good, so I had some more and I noticed that my saliva turned brown... and the taste in my mouth became very metallic and my tongue started hurting - there were thousands of microscopic lacerations from tiny sugar crystals all over my tongue and I was spitting blood. x_x
OUCH
Krešimir Cindrić it's best to nibble brittle
that is so fucking metal
Raining blood in the lacerated tongue
Delicious!
I cant use butter. Can i subsitute it with oil? margerine would not be best i think?
انت ممتاز اعمل كرميل التوفي الله يوفقك
I want that small wooden coffin!!! (Or one like it)
you are the Y.A. Tittle of your pumpkin seed brittle. Now that's funny!
For flattening the mass you said "any flat object will do". This statement is not accurate at all. For example, sheet of paper or slice of roast beef, to name only two, although flat, won't work.
Please try to be more accurate with your instructions, because I tried it with perfectly flat slice of ham and now its a mess!
Yum
Why don't you ever show your self chef very mysterious love your videos :)
I thought all corn syrup are high in fructose in general.
Chef John's gonna break you off a little bit of somethin' somethin'! ;)
To avoid anyone hurting them self he didn't show the cold-water method for telling what temperature the candy is if you don't have a thermometer.

the little coffin presentation got me so hard
That coffin gave me nightmares.
You already had time to go to sleep and wake up?
Of course. Don't you take naps at 9pm?
yea u could break me off a lil sumthin sumthin anytime! u r hilarious!!
what can i put instead of corn syrup? not that common in Europe?
Yum!!!
Wait, I've carved all kinds of pumpkins and I never saw green seeds. Are they green when they're... I dunno, whatever you call a pumpkin before you're ready to carve it. Green? Pre-ripe?
The green seed is inside the white seed/shell
Where do i get punkin seed? - Just wanna know so I can be sure I'm getting the right thing. Also would it be good if I used pu*m*pkin seed as a replacement?
Yummmmmmmm
i swear that you are a funny man!
