Working in a kitchen it is always best to not cross contaminate.
I've learned my lesson! Thanks for watching. - J
2:52
Mark is correct. Cross contamination is real cooking and eating hazard!!! I also love the question as to whether or not he’s going to use the tongs to eat with! Love, love, love that!
I agree ! Thanks for watching. Marc
I guess it is kinda like when you are cooking on a pan, you could use the same spatula to flip over raw meat... and then later, you are probably going to use that spatula to take that meat out. Do you wash your spatula in the middle of the cooking process? I understand where the concern is coming from though, the tongs are not getting exposure to the heat throughout the cooking process like it would if you are flipping on a pan... so if I were to cook in the ninja, I would use a different set of tongs personally. But I also understand why it doesn't seem as big of a deal.
Great point! But yeah agreed, better to be safe. Thanks for watching! - J
I'm definitely scared of cross contamination! It takes only a minute to wash those tongs while it's cooking! Could save you from getting sick one day! But that, we may never know if you're constantly washing as I do! Hopefully he never finds out the hard way!
It’s the wrath of the chicken. Go vegan - and no prob.
1) definitely use clean tongs after handling raw chicken, 2) take food off the tray before removing it then you don't have to worry about dropping it, 3) I just keep 2 tongs nearby, 1 red tipped for raw and 1 black for cooked.
Great tips! - J
Oh I like that! Thanks for that tip!
But I just wash the tongs and reuse it when it’s cooked. No?
@@iryna3891 of course you can, I just like the color coded system for myself
@@Connidbfl I definitely love ur system! Will he stealing ur idea :) thank you :)
What you said is exactly how the manual says to do it. Use tongs to remove the meat, then use the tongs to remove the tray. So simple.
I've been hospitalised with food poisoning, and a colleague's daughter had her life changed by salmonella poisoning, so I would say you have been lucky. You may say that we have been unlucky, but we were both lucky until the day we weren't.
Lesson learned! - J
Marc is ✅️. I just replaced my 14 in 1 ninja multicooker with a speedi. The 14 in 1 was just too big and heavy. Can't wait to get cooking- i like the fact it can do cakes and bread too 😊
Great videos guys ❤
Thanks for the great comment! - J
Hey @claevaeva8997
I confused between between foodi and speedi!
I hope your speedi has arrived and you are enjoying it now!
which one do you recommend more knowing that you have used both?
Just got mine and followed the recipe book for frozen eggrolls. DUDE! I've never had frozen eggrolls come out so good! 16 minutes.
That's awesome! I'll have to try that. - J
I have both the Ninja Pressure Cooker Air Crisp and the Speedi Rapid Cooker. I cook for one person and believe me, this is the BOMB! I love it. I can meal prep for 3 to 4 days or quick cooking if there are quests. Can't live without it. I give it a 9.0! I plate the chicken before I remove the crisper tray with tongs. The Presure Cooker Air Crisp is used only for large gathering.
That’s awesome !! Thanks for the comment ! Marc
If you could only get one, which would you get, this or the pressure cooker? I'm really sad this is missing the pressure cooker option...
I’d probably go with the Speedi. The pressure cooker is nice to have. But I wouldn’t use it as much. Marc
Which should I buy first? I’m in a dilemma at khols now …. 😂
Speedi !!
Ninja speedi is great use mine almost 3 or 4 times a week.All the function are great.Beat my insta pot beat my other air fryer beats my small convention oven beat my microwave beats my gas oven ,just a great machine.
Agreed! Best thing we've reviewed thus far. Thanks for watching! - J
Ingenious appliance. I have too many appliances, so no space, but if I was starting a kitchen from scratch, this may be the only one I'd get.
It’s brilliant !! Marc
Sale at Sam's this weekend for sure. $89.00. I picking one up tomorrow thanks to your videos!
Wow. Great price!!! Let us know how u like it. Marc
Just grabbed mine at Sam's for $79. Happy to see these videos out there!
I would use 2 pairs of tongs, or wash them while everything is cooking.
I also wash my hands before touching the seasoning jar or put my seasoning in separate bowls.
I am planning on buying this! Thanks for the review.
I agree ! Let us know how you like this. Marc
I'm a "1" pot cooker. I've had my Speedi for a month or so now. Use it regularly. I don't cook at 390, I use 360 or 375 but keep it at 15 minutes. I divide it in 8 minutes then 7 minutes. I turn my steak, pork, chicken ( I like the way the meats turn out. I put frozen veggies on the bottom and I spray the top piece so it's easier to clean. I haven't tried the "air fryer" yet. Okay I just haven't figured that out at this time.
For those that are hesitant, take the leap and then do a video (I don't know how to do that) and I'll learn a new meal just like I did here!
Thanks for the great comment! - J
Mark is absolutely correct , wash your tongs or have a few separate ones, as cross-contamination can happen, food safety is a must
I totally agree !! Marc
Yes Mark is correct, but very funny interaction between you two on that 😂. Loving the channel guys, great work! I might get a Speedi.
Haha thanks so much for watching and the comment. Marc

Cover with topping crumb and put in speedi. Set to steam/bake and set timer 10-15 minutes.
Awesome!!! Def going to have to try this !! Marc
Thanks for doing a 6 month review! Just about to buy a Speedi and was happy to see a video of someone who used it regularly. I'm a vegetarian and excited that it works for tofu and fake meats too.
(P.S. New tongs every time)
Haha. Thanks for watching! - J
As a fellow vegetarian myself would luv 2 know if it was worth it in the end?
I have the ninja foodi. If I can cook it in there I do. I use pressure cooking a lot. I also use saute alot. I love my ninja!
Nice! - J
As j worked in restaurants I would say wash them after using them for raw chicken 😊 other foods I use the same like chips and veg xx
I agree ! Thanks for watching ! Marc
I enjoyed your video. I purchased it a few months ago and love it. My favorite setting is the steam and crisp. I've done chicken tenders in it and they've turned out beautifully. It is the best air fryer I have and I have a few. Thank you for an informative video.
Thanks so much!
Yes, classic case of cross contamination. Do not use the same utensils on cooked meat that you used on raw meat without washing. So sez my Cordon Bleu trained wife.
I couldn’t agree more !! Thanks for watching. Marc
Yes I work in a professional kitchen and yes it is considered cross-contamination when you use the same tongs as you used for the raw chicken Salmonella in the making do not recommend that get clean tongs for a cooked chicken, clean tongs for raw chicken. Do not use the same tongs for cooked and raw chicken. That is a health code violation.
I agree !
Isn't this common knowledge? I was taught that rule at a very young age.
Don't know if I've done that but I'm still alive ?
Mark is 100% correct! It’s gonna happen eventually, maybe your immune system is really good now but at a time you may be a little more under the weather an your defences are low you could get sick easily.
I agree ! Marc
Literally just bought this, well, my wife has.😂
Thought I'd watch a few vids on it, you're the first I came across and I don't need to see anyone else.
In fact that meal you just made looked perfect, I love thighs, nandos here in the UK are epic.
But I'm absolutely going to do that meal and have a look around your channel..
Thanks guys keep up the great job.🙏👍🏻
Thanks so much for the great comment and support! - J
Not that anyone really cares but i didn't finish watching it because you didn't even try the other functions. Will probably still buy it because everyone seems to like it.
Which functions did you want to see ? This is our 6 month follow up. Maybe check out or original full, comprehensive review. Cheers. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen I bought mine since i commented. I'll probably check it out the other video. Just thought it was odd that it wasn't part of the 6 month review, but I'm probably just being bitchy. Ty for sharing your experience
Thanks for watching. - J
On sale at Costco $100 US through 06/11/23 FYI. Thanks guys.
Great deal! - J
Hi guy's i know that this is a year old but Marc is 💯% correct you never take that chance just for the sake of a few seconds under the tap 🍻🍻
Lesson learned! Thanks for watching! - J
Are they brothers? The cross contamination argument reeks of siblings rivalry. I absolutely agree with the school of never touch anything with a utensil used with raw chicken. Being a healthcare provider and having been afflicted with food poisoning several time in life, its no fun. Why take the chance. Just subscribed, informing, entertaining and real. Thanks so much.
Haha thanks for the comment! But no, not brothers. See you in the next video! - J
My mom has mobility issues and I’m trying to find an ergonomic way of her cooking when I’m not with her. Been toying for ages with getting an air fryer, she’s given me the green light. I just want to leave prepped ingredients and she be able to make a meal quickly. This might just be “the one”🤞🏾
Yes this one or check out our Combi video, or our video comparing the 2! Let us know what you go with though, and how she likes it. - J
@@TheAverageKitchen yes literally watching the combi/speedi video. Thank you so much. 🙂
@@TheAverageKitchen Yes, I will let you know.
🤙
Sounds good! - J
Okay, great video. I too am guilty? of using same tongs... with the exception when there are guests present who will be consuming the food lol then a quick swish in soapy water in sink or second set of fresh tongs (yay dishwasher!)
Haha thanks! - J
I agree with Mark! Clean/different tongs for cooked food.
Thanks for the great video!
🤙🏼🤙🏼
I've had mine for 2 weeks. I've used it every night for the last 10 days!!
That's awesome! It's wonderful isn't it. I'm getting ready to use it right now as a matter of fact. What's your favourite dish? - J
Same here, can’t stop using it and making excuses to cook something new. Now I just need to convince my kids to eat vegetables.
Hahaha good luck !
dang, i been eating food for 68 years without anyone beinng so scared of cross contamination and no one in my family has gotten sick or died.
Haha fair enough ! Marc
I don’t worry about contamination, I’ve seen in videos some people talk about it but if you do I won’t hold it against you
Haha thanks! - J
I bought a Ninja Speedi last week and haven’t used it yet. This was inspirational. I got a great deal on mine. Its original price was £250, after Xmas it was £149.99, and I got a deal on it for £129.99. Absolute bargain by the looks of things. Thanks for showing this non-chef how easy it is - except removing the cooking plate when it’s red hot of course!
Thanks very much. Let us know how you like it !! Marc
Good video, thx. Late to the party, and perhaps someone else already suggested this, but how bout using a long two tined cooking fork to lift the top rack out... A little wiggle room at the beginning maybe, but if you twist it slightly as you raise it the weight would probably hold it steadier, giving you a little more control.
Great tip ! I’ll have to try that ! Marc
My concern would be scraping the coating with a metal utensil, as once it starts it just keeps falling apart and you don't really want that in your food.
Bought this recently. Awesome purchase, has been great for some quick chicken and rice and chicken alfredo. My only complaint is that I can't fit the big bastard in any of my cabinets but honestly I've been reaching for this most days instead of getting takeout so it's a winner in my book.
Agreed! Thanks for watching! - J
Marc, you are correct. You might need to follow your brother around to keep him from getting sick. two sets of tongs for your brother's birthday.
Hahaha if he was actually my brother. Which he’s not lol. Thanks for watching. Marc.
@@TheAverageKitchen Marc, you could trade him in if he falls over from salmonella. I am only kidding, love watching you both.
🤣🤣🤣. Thanks so much for the great comments !!!! Marc.
I’ve had one still unboxed for months because I don’t know where to put it. I have the Foodi 2-lid pressure cooker and a smart XL grill/griddle. Your video this morning is so good I am inspired to make this rice & chicken recipe. I’m also going to look up the chicken parm you showed. Use clean tongs for uncooked & cooked meats.
Thanks for the great comment! - J
Mark is actually right. Chances are maybe minimum, but always be carefull with that.
Food looks good though.
Have a question: do you know what the difference is between this Ninja or the ag301 ?
Im planning to buy one for the first time
The AG301 I believe is an indoor grill, the Speedi doesn't grill at all. Thanks for watching! - J
Safety person here. Don't use the same utensil without washing first. Sorry. 🙂. Just because you have gotten away with it so far, doesn't mean it will continue. Love your videos!!!!
I've learned my lesson! Thanks for watching! - J
I agree with Jamie! I do the same and have never had a problem!
Haha thanks for the support! Probably best to be safe anyway though. Thanks for watching! - J
Yeah my mil, used to thaw frozen protein in the dish drainer. 😝 Scallops, Shrimp, Chicken, Beef. You name it she thawed it there. After the first time she did, it, I didn't let her "help" in the kitchen ever again. It grossed me out. I had to scrub the whole mess, before I would use it for clean dishes. She also thawed the turkey on the platter, and never washed it, just put the cooked turkey on it to cut up. Its a wonder she never made her whole family sick. Or is that why some times you didn't feel well after eating there??
Yikes !!!! Thanks for sharing your experience. Marc
Ive been cooking for 30 years and never used different tongs 😂 just replacing old ninja multicooker with Speedi 👍
Haha thanks for the comment! - J
I have a Vortex XL air fryer that I have no issues with, but I’ve just seen a Speedi for sale for $40 new and I’m thinking about switching. The Speedi does seem a little more versatile. I would probably just buy another large metal ring to attach to the tray inside to make it easier to remove. Maybe even try finding one made of silicone that won’t get hot.
That's an amazing price, I'd grab it for sure. - J
I’m totally Happy with mine! The only thing is when I’m making chicken and rice. It seems like it takes 14 minutes to start cooking. Am I doing something wrong or is it the quantity of rice I’m using in the bottom?. I normally do a cup of rice and a cup and a half chicken broth. Other than that this unit is awesome. Thanks for sharing guys. Love your reviews. Cheers.🍻
It does take some time to preheat so it's probably normal. I would guess mine is 5-10 mins normally. Thanks for the comment! - J
I am talking in general here , but rice should be cooked 2-1 so 1 cup of rice 2 cups of liquid
Agreed! - J
Instant Pot has a similar start-up delay, due to the time needed to heat the liquids. Pre-heating liquids will help, e.g. starting w/ near-boiling water. Maybe try heating your water and broth in a microwave first, while prepping other ingredients?
Mark is right, you ALWAYS wash, avoid contamination at all costs, even one time is too many!
Thanks! - J
I love my ninja speedi. But when putting meat on, I usually change the utensils to new clean one to take off. I am very concerned with saminellia contamination. I am still learning different things to make on this ninja. I think steaks and hamburgers are my favorites. I can't seem to get chicken to turn out good for some reason. Salmon and fish are so east too. Love it
Thanks for the comment! - J
I don’t pay too much attention to cross contamination. I know it’s a thing and I take minor precautions but I have never been sick from a meal I cooked and neither has my family. I actually try to expose my self to things in small doses to help my immune system. My friend has Covid, I’m still coming over. I believe there’s a such a thing as too careful. That’s why I credit my immune system to slight exposure. And I rarely get sick.
Thanks for the comment! - J
I love Mark goading Jamie into eating salmonella by eating off of the tongs. You guys are hilarious. I'm definitely team Mark on this. You've been very lucky so far Jamie! One night of food poisoning in the bathroom and you won't be using the same tongs ever again. 😆
This was a great review! I appreciate you guys doing a follow up. Have you tried cooking fish with this? Could it be cooked from frozen?
Hahaha love this comment !!! Never tried fish yet, I think it could be done frozen or fresh !! Marc
Haha great comment for sure. I like to live on the wild side apparently! I believe fish is an option on the recipe builder, and frozen fish would absolutely work out. Thanks! - J
Team Mark on the salmonella tongs
Thanks !!! I agree. Marc
Very easy argument to solve (although it's one that people still seem to need to discuss)...
Essentially, the tongs are just replacing your hands in handling the food. Do you wash your hands after handling raw chicken before you handle other things.... there's your answer!!
I totally agree !! Good point. Marc
Thanks for the great review. I have a Ninja foodi XL Smart Grill and have been thinking of adding this to my cooking arsenal mostly for the all in one meal capability and speed. I don't think it can replace my Ninja Grill though for the way it cooks steaks, burgers, and meats in general, and I like the wide open layout of the grill and the temperature probe for those things. So I don't think it will be overkill to have them both.
As for the cross contamination thing... I'm with Jamie on this, but it depends entirely on how you grew up. I grew up in the 60's and my family only owned 1 cutting board (remember the ones that slid under the counter.) 😱 We also cut our meats and vegetables with the same knife and never gave it a thought. This evidently helped build a strong immune system in us. The thought of cross contamination between meats and vegetables wasn't even thought of much until the 80's and 90's. And I just rolled my eyes and figured it was just a way to sell more cutting boards, 🤷♂
So as I said, it all depends on how you grew up. Because that's when you develop the immunities that are going to carry you on through the rest of your life. I will say though that whenever we have company over for a meal, I always practice "safe food prep" for them to prevent cross contamination because I know that's what they do. So I don't expect them to have the same high level of immunities that the wife and I have (she grew up the same way I did.) And the last thing I want to do is make them sick.
Haha. Thanks for the great comment! - J
No such thing as building up an immune system against food poisoning lmao. It's far more likely that you just don't remember the incidences when you were unwell because you were a child. Nobody can recall every time in their life that they got sick, even as adults.
Mark has a valid concern. Using tongs used on raw chicken to remove the tray is definitely risky. If the chicken had been contaminated with salmonella you’ve a good chance of transferring it to the food you’re about to eat.
Lesson learned! - J
hello! does this pressure cook the rice alone? how long would 2 cups of plain rice take to cook in this one? Thank you
No this is not a pressure cooker. It would cook rice though, 10-12 mins. Thanks for watching! - J
Yes it would be safe to say yes its better to used clean or different utensils because yes you have been lucky not to get sick
Lesson learned! - J
i use the same tongs usually never get sick
Haha perfect thanks for the support! - J
Lol! Usually??
Haha great point! - J
I loved the way you guys discuss about who's right about the spoon situation! It makes it real! Myopinion is the videographer is a bit paranoid! ;)
Haha. Thanks for the comment! - J
Thank you for your reviews on this. I'm just learning to cook and I have a stupid question in regards to cooking safety with the Speedi. Could raw meat drip liquid down into the lower layer and contaminate the food? Sorry for the silly question. I've never cooked meat before and I'm scared of poisoning someone. I'd love to give this device a try
Good question! Yes the meat will drip down, but no it won't hurt anyone. As long as the meat is cooked thoroughly, then everything else would be too, so you're good to go! Thanks for watching. - J
I’m from Poland. We eat raw meat. And raw eggs, too 😎 The tongs situation is ridiculous/ hilarious 😉😁
Nice ! I was in krakow years ago. LOVE that city !! Marc
I'm with Marc! Basic food hygiene rule.... but great tips Jamie! Thanks
Haha thanks for the comment! - J
these people are morons :D@@TheAverageKitchen
Never ever worried about chicken. We don‘t have chickens with salmonella due to better farming conditions.
Where are you from? - J
😮 please don't use the raw chicken tongs for getting the cooked food out! Not much hassle to wash them while you wait.
Great recipe though. I'm going to try it with my new Speedi. Thanks 👍
Hahaha yessss! I agree ! Thanks for watching. Marc
As a 1st time visitor to the channel i came for the review which was GREAT but the commentary from the cameraman was unnecessary which diluted the quality and purpose of the video. Unless in fact that was just purposeful drama the was seeded to drive the UA-cam engagement algorithm 👀.
We appreciate your pov and the comment. We are just a couple average guys making UA-cam videos as a hobby. Cheers. Marc
It seems to be better than I taught! For « dry » food it looks legit 😮. I’ll try to look for some refurbished ones
Thanks for watching.
Almost 50 years old and have never had Salmonella. Better to be safe, but I would use the same tongs also.
Thanks for the insight ! Marc
When using the speddi function doesn't all the fat from the protein on the top shelf drip onto your veggies on the bottom?
Yes it certainly does. - J
I would never ever use the same tongs without washing. All I could think about when you were cooking was ( hope he cleans up before he gets the chicken out.) Touching the spice jars without washing hands is a huge no no! Whenever I cook chicken, everything has to be cleaned, before I get the cooked chicken out or before I make any salad etc. I've had food poisoning a couple of time before from restaurants, and certainly don't want it again
Lesson learned! - J
So the difference between this and the foodi is this cooks a meal as the foodi cooks individual items
Exactly. Thanks for watching! - J
I’ve been cooking for 62 years, never used separate tongs, never had salmonella poisoning. Steak or chicken. Perhaps Australia has better quality meats. I know in the UK salmonella in chickens is pretty bad.
Thanks for watching and the comment. Here in Canada, for the sake of washing the tongs, I’d rather not chance it. Marc
Ahahah, I use same tongs as well!!!
Haha thanks! - J
Absolutely matters to wash the utensils, surfaces, cutting boards that have been touched by raw meats, especially poultry.
I totally agree !! Marc
Noooooooo! Clean the tongs 😂
AB SO F’N LUTLEY !! 🤣🤣. Marc
I am Belgian and I don't understand the concern about cross contamination. Don't know what are the security policy of the food production in the US, but It is not a topic here. Even in France I never heard about that. Of course hygiene is very important in a kitchen, but when I ear you, it seems that the raw food himself can be problematic. Here we avoid to eat raw meat of pork or chicken, but you can eat raw fish, raw meat (Tartare de boeuf is a delight) and nobodies got problems.
Thanks very much for the insight. I’ve been to Brussels, beautiful city !! Marc
Put a key ring on the shirt loop
I should probably know what you're referring to but I don't lol. - J
Just get one of those round circles that you put keys on
I wish I could post a picture
I get what you mean now. Thanks for the suggestion! - J
I will be watching
I also use the same tool for my chicken. I pick it up when it’s raw and I pick it up when its cooked BUT I will wash it in between
I’d not use it in such a manner without washing it.
👍🏼👍🏼
i just totaled my food at 390F 15 mins. Chicken breast, and rice & veg under in chicken broth. Setting was "steam & bake"
Id suggest like the video 12 mins, and maybe 375F.
$5 in chicken wasted :'(
always undershoot fro mwhat the books says
Good advice! - J
Enjoyed it. Didn't know if I should buy but after watching this video, going to. Thanks
Glad we could help! Link to buy is in the video description if you're interested! - J
Thanks for the review 👍. I would use separate tongs to avoid cross contamination .also a thermometer to check the chicken.
Good review 👍
Thanks so much! - J
Just bought one of these. Love the air fryer feature, veggie steamer and slow cooker. I can't wait to do the quick meal feature with the rice, veggies and the meat on top.... Looks amazing. As far as the raw chicken thing I err on the side of caution. Once I touch the raw chicken I put the tongs in the sink, when touching the cooked ones I have a new tong to use.
You'll love the quick meals. And you're probably right about the tongs. Thanks for watching! - J
Is the air fryer feature any good with this one? I’m trying to decide whether to get this all in one or to just go for the Max Pro Health (grill & air fryer)😊
My ex and I view food illness very differently. She sees dates on things as suggestions, and goes by scent, taste, etc. I go by dates and guidelines.
She's had food poisoning only a few times in her life. But I have had it zero times (so far). It's a simple question...is the ongoing work and waste of food safety worth avoiding an illness that only happens every few years or more? For me it's a yes. Each their own, but warn me before you serve me if you disagree.
Fair enough! - J
Love you both but got to side with Marc on this one. Definitely wash the tongs in-between
Lesson learned! - J
Mark is definitely right. You should never prepare raw meat on the same surface as cooked meat and the same goes for tongs. You're very lucky you haven't (yet) succumbed to e.coli or salmonella. Love the video though😊
Lesson learned! - J
Ya wanna eat with those tongs? Had me dying lol
Lol well I don't EAT with them... - J
I just bought one at walmart on clearance for $35!!! Such a great deal for a geat product
That's an unbelievable deal! - J
I use a meat hook in a similar fashion… but I rinse it in hot water before I take the cooked food out. Just takes a second.
Thanks for watching! - J
Mark and Jamie you both are right! Pls go Hollywood and send me an invite to your debut show.
Haha we wish! - J
Everyone’s stomach is built different but Mark is 100% correct
I agree !! Marc
Can't you sacrifice a fork and bend the end 90deg to use to pick the tray up? Seems like an easy hack. Cheers for video as always guys - great presentation.
Love that idea ! We’ll have to try that out !! Cheers. Marc
In that amount of time, that came out almost Chef-like. Thanks for the follow-up video.
Thanks for the great comment! - J
Newbie here 👋🏽 So I heard you say, you use the Speedi quite often. Have you tried the Combi? If so which would you recommend?
Family of #7 would you recommend two Speedi’s/Combi’s vs just one?
I see you watched our other video. Hope it helped! - J
Thank you for your review and because of it I bought one today couldn’t pass the price of $99.00.
Wow. That’s an unreal price. Let us know how you like it !!
@@TheAverageKitchenIt’s a XMAS gift but will try & post once recipient uses it. I’ve just discovered your channel and love you guys. Early Black Friday special. I have the 8 qt. Ninja Foodi 2 lid cooker and too bad the one lid wasn’t available then.
Awesome !! Thanks so much for the support !! Marc
I am looking to replace my instant pot. Is this a good choice ? I have limited space in my kitchen but It would be nice to have a air fryer and instant pot in one
Well. This is not a pressure cooker like an instant pot. So you’d loose that feature. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen Fair enough currently i use my insta pot for making rice only atm..
Had to do 1.5 playback speed to save time.. thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching ! Marc
I love mine. I’m cooking different things and enjoying it. Cooking used to be the least thing I liked to do and didn’t even want to!
I find it strange you are doing a review when you haven’t used all the functions. 🤷🏻♀️
I think I explained in the video why I wasn't doing all the functions. Thanks for watching! - J
No problem with putting them in and flipping to season the other side. But I'd have washed them after that. And probably again if I flipped during cooking. Same if it was a thermometer or spatula etc.....
You're right! Thanks for watching. - J
Mark is most DEFINITELY correct! 😊
😏. Marc
I agree with Mark and the chicken...lol that being said I'm getting this rapid cooker will be great for chicken taco and Spanish rice night or fajitas night
Let us know how it turns out! - J
Great video! And now I'm hungry. I look forward to many more of your recipe ideas, demonstrations etc. using the Ninja Speed. Well done!
Thanks so much! - J
The probability of food poisoning cooking one meal a day like that is pretty low, but the consequences are so severe (possibly death) that you should never take that chance
I totally agree. Marc
Ive always been curious how good the speedi was and i finally decided to get one because it was on sale for $60 cant wait to make some stuff with it
Let us know how you like it !! Marc
Where did you find this offer?

I agree with Mark. (My boyfriend doesn't. He also said i've never been sick!). On another idea, wish you had tested the other features.
Thanks for watching. Marc
The top with the heating coil is dirty AF and looks like it can't be cleaned (easily). Also what kind of magic rice is that that cooks in 17 MInutes?
That's true, it can't be cleaned easily. I just live with it lol. And the rice is basmati. - J
