Hey bro, do you have a UK supplier for your books?
Much love.
Yueng man cooking recipe more free books poor people who have no job
Can you offer an oil free option, if possible?
@@sniffingdogartofficial7257 hiya! The cookbooks are currently only available through our website in the description box. We do ship to the uk :)
@@YEUNGMANCOOKING Ah, thanks for replying! I'll check the shipping costs!
Have a great day.
Before you stop blending your greens, add one ice cube and blend it into your pesto. The cold will shock the greens and stop them from turning dark or brown. Keeping it in the freezer may be an alternative to keep it that brilliant green.
What a great thank you 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻
🧡
awesome!
I listen to audiobooks daily. You have a fantastic voice for narrating! Something to think about. :-)
I thought I could never give up parmesan cheese in my pesto but this recipe is incredible. Once again Will, I love food I cook from your recipes.
Dairy is what keeps me from going vegan. I don’t see me ever giving it up lol. From yogurt to cream in coffee to CHEESE - it’s half my day. Though I did switch to oat milk in my oatmeal.
this looks delicious! i'm making this tonight with the overabundance of basil in my garden. thank you!
I'd literally pay this man to be my personal chef.
100%!
This is one of the most digestible ways to eat a highly nutritious food . The bulk and texture in kale can be daunting. Bravo!
The kale stocks can also be eaten if there are not super hard. I chop them finely and cook them with some oil and garlic.
Will, this looks so great. Was looking for a pesto with no cheese, daughter's allergic to dairy. You are appreciated so much and thanks. We will be making this soon.
Enjoy 🥳🙌🏻
I add nutritional yeast in ours if you want a cheesy flavor without the dairy. Extra protein, too.
Looks soooo delicious
Love all of your recipes. Can I purchase the cook book at our local Singapore book shop?
@@radhabaipanikar4160 It’s best for Wil to answer but as a former frequent visitor to S’pore, I always found lots of great books at Kinokuniya books. Or do what we did, and order both e-books for immediate gratification! They are absolutely stunningly photographed. 🤗
The pesto looks so beautiful, colourful and delicious. I like your choice of ingredients
I gotta be honest, the puns at the start of the episode are like 60% of the reason why I'm subbed to you 😂
😎
I know, right? 🤣🤣🤣
That intro was awesome. I was like. Woah. Intense. Professional. *Slip* 🤣
Also pesto cubes in the freezer is a great hack.
Great idea👍
😆
YOU CAN MAKE THIS WITH ABSOLUTE CONFIDENCE. My 29 year old son has been vegan several years now. I've switched my diet to mostly vegan and do not miss meat at all. So glad I found you. Blessings. 🇯🇲
Perfect! I am overloaded with kale in my garden. I forgot about using it for pesto. Thank you
Me too! At this time of year it's Kale, and zucchini coming out everyone's ears... so much of it we can't give it away fast enough. I hope he'll put up more recipes which use kale, and maybe some which use zucchini too so that we can use up some of this, and maybe put some of it in the freezer in pre-cooked things for consumption this fall and winter when we no longer have access to it from our garden.
🙌🏻
This looks so delicious! As part of a "No waste" regime I often use carrot greenes (organically farmed) to make Pesto or chop it into a Taboulé Salad...it's worth trying👍 😃
Simply elegant, Thankyou Will for another BEAUTIFUL meal again. You chose my all time favorite vegetable kale and favorite nut almond. I rarely go out to dinner now because of all your healthy and delicious dishes I can enjoy at home. Thanks again and looking forward to your next dish. And love the pun at the intro as well.🤣
Love kale pesto! I use pine nuts instead of almonds for that more traditional Italian flavor. Mushrooms, carrots and peas on top of the pasta!
I appreciate you featuring so many simple and quick meals. I'm always sending people to your channel when they say they don't have time to cook.
we had this on the menu for lunch! Guess I'm changing recipes now
😎
Isn't rotini pasta the perfect pasta for pesto? The pesto gets all in the nooks and crannies for maximum pesto goodness. I hope I can find kale at the organic market today to try this tonight! I would add some nutritional yeast for some cheesy taste. Thanks Wil!
Bucatini, fettuccine, angel hair ,rotini fussili are all the best for pesto !! One more there is ! I forgot the name !! I still get confused between fussili & rotini ,though ! Lol. 💜🥁🐉🎵🎤🎶💞
Rotini is kinda the perfect pasta in general. It rarely misses.
@@christophercarlson5835 yup
cheers to you and all here. and indeed rotini’s “nook & crannies” where the flavors are nestled in :) ♥️🙏🙏🙏
Nutritional yeast, good idea! My daughter, in kindergarten, used to call it "east." Still does, as a 17 yo!
Ok. I'm over here so hungry right now. This is a must-make for me today. Thanks, Wil Yeung :)
Outstanding!!! Gorgeous plate (and love the lemon outtake). 😆
That looks amazing and delicious! I can't wait to try it.
Omg, the colours! All the fresh, bright greens, I love it!
Kale is not in season here now, but when it will be, I'll for sure be making that! 👌
Can't wait to make this. Looks so simple and delicious and I bet my non-vegan son will love it. Don't know if I can wait for dinner. Must make NOW!
🙌🏻🥳😎
This Kale and fresh Basil paste / pesto is really thick and looks great, love how you can store it for a little bit, so can divide up your dishes to make them last longer and still be fresh! Another great dish and video!
Oh what a beauty! Yayyyy, have some asparagus handy. I think I'll add them as well. Thank you , Chef Yeung! Go green! 🤗😁
Thank you
Looks delicious
Definitely adding to my menu 🤗
Thank you so much! I can"t wait to try this!
I always get so hungry watching these delicious recipes! Mmmmm!! Time for a quick cupboard rummage......
Everyone of your recipes that we've tried have been fantastic! Definitely trying this one next. Thanks!
🙌🏻🥳
I have Kale growing in my garden. As I harvest, I was in search of ideas on what to make with it. Historically, we make pesto all the time. To my delight, I ttried this recipe this morning with all ingredients fresh from the garden. I am rejoicing! Your recipe is amazing, thank you. I will be making a double batch tomorrow. Thank you so much!
🙌🏻🥳😎 Sounds extra amazing with all fresh ingredients. Enjoy!
This was SO GOOD. I've been trying to find a way to eat more leafy greens without resorting to salads and this was the perfect way to do it. I couldn't even taste the kale in the pesto once it was mixed in with the pasta. Adding the peas really made the whole dish even more filling. I'm not vegan so I topped mine off with some grated parmesan and it was perfect. Thanks for another hit recipe!
Made this tonight and it was the best pesto we've made (and we make basil pesto regularly!) We had no almonds so used toasted sunflower seeds instead, and added an avocado to the pesto as it needed using - it was amazing! Thanks for all your great recipes as always :)
I cannot wait to try this. Always love your vegan recipes and videos!
So easy 😺 I will definitely be trying this!
I am really excited to find your channel and can’t wait to try some of these recipes!
A recipe to fall in love with ♥️🌹👌🏻 thanks a million

Oh what a surprise basil pesto pasta so green with freshness and healthy. Thanks Chef. 😊
Love it love
I love your recepies !!!!
Wow what great timing, I just bought some fresh basil and kale from the farmer's market and was looking for recipes to use the kale! And I do exactly what you said: make a big batch of pesto, freeze it in small jars, and enjoy it all throughout fall and winter when I don't feel like cooking but I DO feel like eating haha.
Love your recipes, Will! This one looks 👍
Looks delicious x thank you and much love from the UK xx

Oh my was this ever delicious! We loved every bit of this recipe and will be using it often!!

wow!
Next year we will have our herb and greens garden, producing again! Missed planting and harvesting this year. In the past, we also planted a row of kale for our pet rabbit, Speedy. He had a sensitive tummy. Commercial Rabbit Foods did not provide for his specific needs. Kale is a wonderful food! Thanks for sharing this recipe and the storage tips as well!
You are such a great chef & so humble… thank you sooo much!!🌺
🤗
I was surprised you used almonds and not cashews.....looks awesome!!!
Thank you for your delicious recipe that I wait for every week!

Wow!! This came out just perfekt 😋👌
🙌🏻👨🏻🍳
So good♥️👍
Oh my goodness 😋
I will do!!!!💖
🥳🙌🏻
Very nice pasta recipe
Hi, Wil! Pop the ends of the basil stems into a glass of water on your window sill and you will have more plants!! They root rather quickly.
It look deliciously fresh 🥰🥰🥰
Awesome recipes my friend! Keep up the amazing work! You inspire me to cook all the time! Thank you. I’ve enjoyed sharing your channel with friends and loved ones. Great topic to discuss during holiday cooking 🙂 best to you and your family as well.
I'll try this soon.
I love the addition of peas.
Looks awesome! I live off grid and reducing space in the dorm sized fridge is a big deal!!
Genius Chef, Loveable personality. 🙏
Just as I was about to wrote that no one will persuade me to replace basil with kale you showed there beautiful bunch of basil you used for this recipe so probably the pesto actually turned out quite tasty! I am surprised you didn't use any miso for this recipe! I have seen some people ads it fir that cheezy umami note - probably worth testing out!
.
Also, I ADORE all the fun worry comments and the title 😁 you malingme smile a lot with these!
.
Anyways, sending you lot of love! Stay safe and have a great weekend!
Looks lovely. I shall try this.
🙌🏻
