Pan con tomate is a really regional dish that rarely makes it out of Catalonia to the rest of Spain, let alone the rest of the world.

    3 ingredient miso soup:
    1. Soak dried seaweed for required time
    2. Drain water add 1/2 tsp of dashi powder. Boil water in kettle
    3. Add 1/2 cup boiled water. Add 1/2 tbsp of miso

      ​​@@blairhoughton7918It's the same reason flour is sold separately. You can use it for multiple purposes and you can customize the soup to your preference.
      Plus in Japan, the ingredients to make dashi stock are basic pantry items so it's assumed many already have them
      I do think it exists though. I'm just not sure if the miso is dashi flavoured or it's actually meant to be eaten as the soup

      ​​@@joerinaldi207​​It's a streamlined recipe meant to take 5 minutes with no pots and to be made while cooking other dishes. It's not meant to be proper from scratch miso soup (even then the dashi is the only real shortcut here)
      Biggest advantage is that you can make 1 portion in 5 minutes instead of having to reheat old soup and kill the flavour of the miso.

    Ok so he said "do you really need a recipe for peanut butter and jelly" and like... actually. There is one very important step I rarely see done. The jelly will soak through the bread and make it mushy. You avoid this by putting a thin layer of peanut butter on both sides which also allows the peanut butter to stick to itself from each peace of bread and form a seal that won't let the jelly shoot out on that first bite. TRY IT THIS WAY PEOPLE!

      Origin story to follow. If you ever have someone send you packages, ask them to use bags of marshmallows as packing material. They're cheaper than packing peanuts anyway.
      I had a similar problem in Australia. We couldn't understand why the Aussies hated smores. This conversation immediately preceded them making smores for us... which were TERRIBLE. They don't have graham crackers, they used Cadbury milk chocolate and the MARSHMALLOWS. Oh, they're marshmallows were so gross. They were tough and this horrible assortment of artificial "fruit" flavors. Cadbury is fine but the milk chocolate is too light, and as I usually forego the graham crackers and just stick a pip of Hershey's into a toasted marshmallow, I have no real complaint about the use of digestive biscuits except that they're a bit bland, but man, those marshmallows were inedible. We pitched in an had a care package of Hershey's, graham crackers, and plain marshmallows sent over. There are now a handful of Aussies that understand smores. We eventually figured out to roast plain marshmallows (we had a ton because my mother used them as packing material) and sandwich them between timtams.

    For me, the best thing about your channel (and your first book) is the fundamentals. Learning the concepts has made me much better at cooking off-script, improving/mixing up written recipes, and made me question why I'm buying certain things pre-made. Things like ketchup, pickles, fruit jam and tomato sauce are so easy and inexpensive to make, and I can make them with no questionable ingredients. I also really appreciate learning the difference between tomato sauce for a chicken parm dish vs pizza sauce. So similar but distinctly different.
    I can tell some of the things in this video would be much better with a few more ingredients, but I do appreciate the simplicity of the things that do *not* seem contrived, such as the tomato soup and tortillas. These are good fundamentals!
    I understand that you appeal to various audiences and you've made it big, and that is seriously awesome. Congrats on the success!

  • @catdad626
    @catdad626 21 день тому +4

    Josh i loved this video, seeing you cook simple home recipes and teach us along the way filled me with nostalgia for old cooking shows like Emeril legasse. The challenge of 3 ingredients is both to make a point of showing you dont have to overcomplicate things but also to build a solid foundation of technique and flavor, i think. I appreciate the suggestions that implied this lesson (add lime and cilantro to something for example) but also a video like this allows the individual ingredients to really shine and display their presence in a way that's digestible and simple.
    Hope to see more of this style!!!

  • @Inscribbles
    @Inscribbles 21 день тому +8

    As someone who cooks often, the simplicity of bringing it down to 3 ingredients is wonderful. Lots of home cooks can get overwhelmed with too many ingredients and the basics are forgotten. As I have cooked award winning mac and cheese, panko bread crumb, gruyere and random cheese mixes, it's easy to forget it really is noodles, half and half, and cheese 😅. I enjoyed this video thoroughly and it has inspired me to go back to said basics. Besides, if I taste it and it needs something I want, I can add it and that is the fun part! But im not overwhelmed because "it's only 3 ingredients" feels just a bit less daunting. Thanks Josh!

For example, Eggs, tomatoes, flour, and garlic. Combine them one way, you can have an easy Pasta and sauce, but another way you have a VERY basic shakshuka (spices everyone should have so those get a pass I GUESS) or just take the flour eggs and butter/milk and you got a cake! I hate buying ingredients for a one off meal and then having half a bottle of something left over that I only know goes in the thing I just made but if there was a book catered around those 20/25 odd ingredients it would be cool to know how else it can be made without finding a new new recipe that uses half another bottle/box of an ingredient and the issue repeats itself.

    Maybe you can suggest meals (and make a video) you can freeze for home made ready meals for people who work long shifts?
    I work 12 hour shifts and factoring into account travel to and from work, I literally come in, brush my teeth and sleep... (factoring into account 4 hours of travel per day, that's less than 8 hours of sleep per day I work (I work interchangeably day and night shifts)).

    • @DwayneShaw1
      @DwayneShaw1 21 день тому +1

      pretty much any recipe you can buy commercially in a frozen meal will freeze well. A good option for easy fresh meals is to keep various proteins (individually portioned) in your freezer with a variety of frozen vegetables -- Beef and pork loin, chicken and fish, shrimp - diced onion and peppers, corn, peas, snow peas, broccoli, etc.. I generally start with frying a diced potato, when about 3/4's done (5 minutes or less), I'll add in a few frozen vegetable (5 minutes or less), then, at the end add in a diced protein - placed in the fridge to thaw the day before (1-3 minutes). In 20 minutes - prep, cook, and cleanup - ya got a freshly cooked meal in one pan (eat out of the pan, or heat up some tortillas in the microwave and eat like tacos, and your dishes are a knife, a fork, a spatula, and a pan)
      By switching up this handful of ingredients you can make a variety of stir fry meals in a few minutes. One night maybe fish and corn, the next night beef and snow peas, ... chicken and broccoli ... chicken and brussel sprouts ...etc .. (as stated above, I almost always start with a base of potato and onion .. good hearty meals, quick and budget friendly (you don't need high end cuts of beef for cutting into thin strips to stir fry)

      A lot of things can be frozen and reheated. They have meal prep containers that are freezer safe. Just make whatever you like in a big batch so you can store some. A Simple great recipe get the el Mexican beef chorizo dice 1 onion throw them broth in a pan and let cook until the chorizo turns brownish in color then throw in diced chicken breast with some chicken bouillon seasoning add fresh spinach and let it cook. I usually serve this over white rice but it can be freezed. Another easy recipe 1 pound of turkey sausage. Brown it and set aside. Then take 2 boxes of chicken rice a Roni and brown the rice according to directions then add the water, seasoning, the cooked meat and some frozen mixed veggies. Finish cooking it based off of the directions. It's really good and super easy I usually put some lousiana on top of mine.

    Hey josh, I miss your old video format. I really enjoyed learning a lot from your experience when making different recipes or showing us specific techniques for a piece of produce or protein. But all these buzzfeed type listicle videos just arent enjoyable to watch, I think it detracts away from the way you come across as a chef and if anything makes me see you more as an entertainer who happens to make food videos. It's a real shame because your videos were the ones I used enjoyed to watch the most when it came to cooking.

    Big nob of butter
    One can of good Parma tomatoes
    Level it up a bit?
    One onion, parmiggiano
    Literally just cook the tomatoes (you can pass them through a food mill to have a smoother sauce), butter and onion cut in half in a pan, with a bit of salt. Cook pasta. If the sauce gets too thick, thin it with pasta water. Finish with parmiggiano. 10/10, simple, easy, hits the spot every time.

    Tip for my overwhelmed GF peeps: you don't need a mixer for the peanut butter cookies. Use the empty peanut butter jar to measure the sugar, dump it in a bowl with an egg, mix it with a fork, cook.
