    • @snoopsteryomom
      @snoopsteryomom 4 роки тому +8

      Julian Sedor if you make Mac and cheese, I recommend taking the beschamel off the heat before adding the cheese (only putting it back on if the cheese isn’t melting properly). This will make the Mac and cheese extra super creamy. Also, adding a teaspoon of Dijon mustard and a dash of hot sauce may help augment the cheesiness flavor! Otherwise, that cheese mix sounds great for Mac and cheese!

      @stockart whiteman only kinda. This preparation leaves out the bay, peppercorn, shallot, and parsley of an actual bechamel, which if I'm being anal means that this is only kinda a Mornay sauce.
      Live by the technically, die by the technically. ;)
      Random other little tidbit, southern style breakfast gravy is also almost a bechamel. It misses out by using pan drippings from the meat instead of butter as the fat in the roux and the seasonings.

    • @caffeinedelusions
      @caffeinedelusions 4 роки тому +5

      Bechamel is a mother sauce, used as the foundation for a range of other sauces. In a mechanistic sense, a bechamel is a roux (equal parts butter and flour) hydrated to a specific consistency with milk. The salt, pepper, bay, shallot, parsley, and/or nutmeg are only necessary if the bechamel is going to be served on its own, rather than being used as a component to a different sauce. It's still a bechamel unseasoned, and sauces born out of it are still referred to as 'bechamel-based', even if they have specific names of their own. One of the strengths of the bechamel is that it is a fairly neutral canvas on which whatever flavors the chef prefers can be integrated. The versatility is one of its finest features.

    If anyone needs a written version of the mac and cheese (not a direct transcription just a parsed version with spelling mistakes and all) heres what i got.
    Bechamel sauce:
    1. Bring two tablespoons of butter to a bubble. Add equal amount of all purpose flour. whisking over medium-high heat until blond roux.
    2. After one minute, slowly drizzle in one cup of whole milk until a thick sauce forms at the consistency of gravy.
    3. Add four ounces each of Cheddar and Montary Jack cheese over low heat. Add more cheese if you want extra cheese. Make sure everything is melted then add four ounces of
    Parmesean Cheese. Keep stiring on medium-low heat until you get what your idea of a perfect cheese sauce is. season with salt and pepper to taste.
    Bread crumb topping:
    1. Melt two tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add a cup of panko breadcrumbs. Add a hint of freshly chopped thyme.
    2. Toast breadcrumbs until golden brown.
    Pasta:
    1.Partially cook pasta (deliberatly undercook). Add hot bechamel sauce.
    2.Place in a well buttered caserol dish. Spread evenly. Top with breadcrumbs and grate Parmesean cheese on top.
    3.Cover and bake at 450 degrees farenhight for 10 minutes. Uncover then cook for 10-15 minutes or until brown and crispy

    for the longest time, I had been wondering why my rue's have always been absolute failures. I would add in the flour with the correct ratio and see what appeared to be brown sugar, but yellow. I then realised it was because my mom only bought margerine. A whole year later, today the day before my birthday, I had unsalted butter, flour, english cheddar and red wax gouda.. and Babish allowed me to earn a new food skill. For this, I thank you. Your video's actually physically showed how the rue was supposed to look like when first making it.

      Wallflower hey I completely understand why you would think that! I used to always think the same when I would see people at the top all the time. I’m at the top of the comments on most Babish videos lately, I can’t fully explain it. I have been commenting on every video he’s made for about the last 7 or 8 months and the last few weeks for some reason I always get top. But all I do is try to get to the video as quick as I can and make a comment that even though average, is probably going to be better than the first few comments that are always “first” or something silly. I then almost always comment on my own comment and like both of those comments. This seems to move it closer to the top in the beginning and then it just kinda rolls from there. I make sure to like any replies and try to reply myself to as many comments as I can! I hate that someone would think I’m paying for any likes or views or anything because i put about 30 hours a week into my channel and it’s marketing! Hope that clears anything up!

Looking forward to shooting those next week!! And VERY much looking forward to trying out livestreaming! Hope I see you guys there!"

    Before i heard of you, i couldn't even chop a tomato right but one day the UA-cam algorythm brought me to your Szechuan Sauce video and since i'm a huge fan of Rick and Morty i thought "Hey, let's try this!". And with the help of your video i managed to make a f*cking great sauce! So i looked further into your channel and saw a huge ton of stuff that i wanted to cook. Now i watched all of your videos, made a list with stuff i want to cook, already started to work through that list and now i really have fun cooking! You managed to transform a 17 year old who barely can cook spaghetti into a still 17 year old who started to learn cooking, can cook some really good meals, has a lot of fun doing it and now has a new hobby! And i really want to thank you for that! Keep up your amazing work!

    I have some tomato sauce on the stove right now, but I used half fresh tomatoes and half tomato puree, because that's what I had. I peeled the fresh tomatoes by scoreing and blanching them like you showed in the "tomate salamblique" video. I also added a finely chopped carrot. I hope it turns out well.
    This channel really inspires me to cook more proper food myself, but I'm too lazy and it's not that easy to cook only for one person, because I easily end up making too much, or I always end up with lots of leftover ingreedients...

      Hey man, name's Jack. Coincidentally I am a Saucier at a high end restaurant in Texas. I never went to culinary school. The best advice I can give you is to grab some good cookbooks that explain the process they go through and start trying complicated recipes. Do stuff that you look at and say "That seems difficult/impossible/too hard". Some great books I would recommend you start with are 'Larousse Gastronomique' and 'French Provincial Cooking'. Gastronomique is a MASSIVE reference that is the result of hundreds of years of culinary study. It contains a ridiculous amount of recipes, explains exactly what goes into them and how, and has a culinary dictionary within in case you get hung up on something. FPC is just a really well written french cookbook that is an absolutely fantastic read and really throws you into the shoes of someone who is obsessed with fragrant wines and subtler aromas and does a wonderful job of getting you excited about cooking.

    Best beshamel for lasange is similar to this, though it's more like:
    butter and flour
    milk
    some salt, black pepper, and a healthy dose of nutmeg (enough to taste it)
    once it starts to thicken, add fresh mozarella

    My red sauce came out great. I let the meat balls you showed us how to make in the King of the hill episode soak in their for an hour too. Everything came out so good! Thank you!

    Can you do a basics episode going over all of the different terminology like "saute" for absolute beginners?

    • @CamMackay96
      @CamMackay96 6 років тому +14

      James Farmstone good idea but below the level he teaches at. I'd recommend Google, you'll find a definition for any culinary term in half a second

    • @jacksonwilliams8971

      And just to answer the question, sautéing is just cooking something quickly in a small amount of fat (usually oil or butter).

      So I think this video is good, but it only recaps a lot of the basics. If you want to learn all the basics in detail and exactly what everything means, I highly recommend watching Jamie Oliver's cooking tutorial. It's how I learned to cook and it was much much more fun than reading stuff online. Once you get the hang of the techniques, start making basic recipes and then move to more and more advanced recipes. For basic ones I recommend Jamie Oliver's recipes, and for advanced ones I'd recommend Gordon Ramsay.

      Plumokin To be fair this is on sauces, not all the basics. I imagine that as more episodes come out it will be made clearer.

    Thank you so much for coming to UTD tonight and cooking up some of Bob's burgers! Everything smelled incredible and you had me cracking up the whole time! The moment you threw the cilantro off the stage while yelling "get that shit outta here" was exceptionally HILARIOUS. It was such an honor to hear you speak and share personal things with your fans. Much love!

      Nejc Novak It was sort of a private event with a no camera/flash rule, but there were professional cameras recording close ups of the food so I'm not sure! I would check with the UTD SUAAB organization!

    For chopping cloves of garlic, I find smashing it with a big can of tomatoes (or something similar) also works pretty well.
