    Q: You said the green that can form on the outside of potatoes when exposed to too much light is a toxin called solanine. Isn't that just harmless chlorophyll?
    A: Potatoes that are turning green do generally contain elevated levels of the glycoalkaloid poison solanine, which develops naturally in potatoes when exposed to light. It is dangerous, and you do want to avoid eating it. However, I was wrong in the video when I said the green itself is solanine. The green itself is chlorophyll, which is harmless. I apologize for the error, but it's also important to note that this is a distinction without a practical difference for us cooks/eaters. The development of chlorophyll and solanine in potatoes is strongly correlated - if there's a lot of chlorophyll, that's an indication that there's a lot of solanine. The solanine is concentrated near the surface of the potato (along with the chlorophyll), therefore peeling the potato until you don't see green anymore is a pretty good way of protecting yourself. The wikipedia article on this appears well-cited: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solanine
    Q: Isn't the green stuff cyanide?
    A: As far as I can tell, that's a (persistent) myth. The problem is solanine, not cyanide.
    Q: What if I want my roast well done, rather than medium?
    A: Maybe 160 F / 70 C, but I really don't recommend roasting eye of round past medium. It will get super tough. You've probably had eye of round cooked all the way through before in the form of deli-sliced roast beef, but they're using a deli slicer - that gets it impossibly thin (which helps tenderization) and I suspect they might also use a long, wet cooking method to further break down connective tissue. For roasting, even slow roasting, I would urge cooking this no more than medium, and if you don't like pink beef, cook a more tender cut instead.
    Q: Is $6.99 a pound really that cheap for a beef roast?
    A: A standing rib roast (which is the standard cut for a big celebratory beef roast) would cost twice as much, so yes, I think so. Also, I bought this meat at Publix, which is not the cheapest grocery store (as I mentioned in the video). I go to Publix a lot because, from what I can gather, they treat their employees better than comparable grocery stores, and the environment is really nice - perhaps as a result of that good treatment.
    Q: What if I don't want to use mushrooms?
    A: I think the recipe could work if you simply skipped the dried mushroom powder, but you could compensate for the umami you're giving up by adding some soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce to taste. Just be careful about salt, since both are very salty.

    Honestly, out of all the food UA-cam channels, Adam definitely stands out the most. He sits on the same level as Babish or Joshua Weismann, but he makes such less quality food and not as professional camera work. He gives off such “dad” energy, it really feels like my dad is teaching me how to cook. He has a certain style of cooking, generally being stuff you can make at home, but he accounts for diversity and health and what’s around you. That doesn’t mention the research he does for a large amount of these videos/recipes. This entire channel really feels like my dad passing down a cookbook that he’s used for all his recipes and I’ve watched him make. It’s incomparable to anything else and I love all of this.

    Hey Adam! That potato wasn't actually rotten on the inside. That is "hollowheart", a fairly common phenomenon with all types of potatoes where you have a build up of sugars right in the center caused by sudden changes in temperature during the growing season. If you just cut it out, the potato is completely safe to eat and tastes fine!

    Dried mushroom powder is my secret weapon in the kitchen. I buy pure powder and use it in rubs and not only does the flavor add to the protein but since it is so good at absorbing juices it helps with the sear. I've seen some of your recipes using xanthan gum. I use it for thickening gravy since the viscosity stays constant no matter the temperature.

    As infrequently as I use milk, I've recently switched to usually having cream on hand instead of milk. It's more "concentrated", so it takes up less space in the fridge. Compared to milk, it generally has a longer shelf life, tends to perform better in sauces, and it can be transformed into sour cream with just a splash of vinegar... or of course whipped cream with just a... whipping.

    For me, this one turned out 140*F in about 2.5-3hrs! It was a 3.11lbs eye round roast. Thankfully it was taken out in time to stop there, and tasted great. I think the difference was because it had a substantial taper to it-one end was about 1/5 the size of the other. The oven was set to 200*F, and according to a thermometer inside was at right about 175*F.

    Thank you for teaching me about xanthan gum and how to use it. I bought some a long time ago and it’s just sat in my pantry because I forgot why I bought it and didn’t really know what to do with it.
    Also, the eye roast is my favorite non-braised roast. I make it similarly to how you make yours but I dry brine it with kosher salt for about 24 hours so it’s seasoned throughout. (Dry brine for anyone who is curious: Coat with a couple tablespoons kosher salt and wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use). I find that this roast makes the BEST lunch meat. When I make it for dinner, I only slice what were going to eat then wrap the rest of the roast in foil and refrigerate so it retains the juices. When you slice it cold you’ll see very little juice on the board. YUM!

    If you /really/ want to maximize the cheap, easy, and delicious, my aunt taught me this recipe for roast (intended for a beef roast, but works great on pork, too. I haven't tried a whole chicken with this recipe, but I plan on doing so).
    Pan sear your roast.
    Cover it in powdered ranch sauce mix and au jus mix.
    Dump it in a slow cooker/crockpot.
    Add some sliced banana peppers from a jar (my aunt's version has about a dozen slices. I've found dumping an entire jar's worth, juice and all, works like a charm).
    If there's no fat cap / a small fat cap, top with an entire slice of butter.
    Cook as suited by the size/cut of meat - I usually go with high for seven hours, but that's because I'm a gremlin who cooks roasts from frozen and rarely gets started on them early enough to use low.

    When I make eye of the round I brown it but then I cook it in a crockpot on low for eight hours with beef broth and red wine but your way looks really good! Yours looks like a high end roast all nice and pink like that. I usually make French dip sandwiches out of mine. I can’t wait to try your recipe!

    I'm not gonna lie, my main takeaway from this video is "curly parsley is a purely decorative herb that is borderline inedible but looks pretty, so it comes across as cheap" and I use it accordingly.
    I sometimes serve those 20 ingredient brownies from Alvin Zhou topped with homemade whipped cream, caramel sauce, and a sprig of curly parsley. It's hilarious.
