Lily's chicken dance revealed some truths about Trevor that he was not prepared to face on the fried chicken episode lmao
...Same.
Lily's chicken dance making Trevor uncomfortable and Vi just enjoying her performance is comedy gold😂
She’s blossomed for sure. Embraced the chaos and pure unadulterated silliness.
MORE LILY!
Lily is just the best.
It did not take long for them to ruin Lily.
@@kevinfager. Watching Lily's first appearance on-camera during the animal nugget episode is such a trip. You can really see how much more confident and self-assured she is now.
Josh saying L’chaim before eating the lard-fried chicken was a subtle joke that was very clever.
Pfft, ty I didn't catch that😂
This isn't the first time 😊
explain i'm dense
@@sitara7664 L’chaim is a Hebrew toast that means “to life”. Chicken fried in lard is decidedly not kosher as Jewish people are not supposed to eat pork products. Both Josh and Nicole are Jewish but both eat pork and shellfish.
@@kenlangston3451 Also, lard isn't exactly healthy
Not gonna lie, Lily's chicken dance was the absolute highlight of the episode.
A sexy dance I must say.
@@thegreatbambi5674bro
@@thegreatbambi5674 what's wrong with you
I laughed so hard I cried!
'thatz a different kinda chicken dance, I dont like it!' it works a little bit just in a different venue. haha!
V's new haircut is so cute and fluffy! it fits her face so well oh my goodness absolutely adorable
she is looking extra beautiful today for sure!
V is looking gorgeous, I was a little distracted from the chicken and nothing disrtacts me from chicken.
you like her new haircut?? not now chief, she's in the zone
I would love to see y’all bust brownie myths next, especially with Trevor’s baking knowledge!
Ooh, brownie myths would be awesome to see! I feel like there are so many claims about brownies that sometimes seem bogus, so that would be a very helpful episode.
@@secretforreddit Totally! They could do cocoa powder versus melted chocolate, oil versus butter, prepackaged mix versus mixing your own dry ingredients, cakey versus fudgy (though I know that’s more of a preference), etc.! 🙂
Which nut (pecan or walnut) or no nuts?
@@anitaoliver7642 Oooh, absolutely! Good one!
I thought they did that already
They should do a segment at the end of this format where they take all the worst ways and put it up against the winning one. Maybe doing all the steps spectacularly wrong cancels out the negative attributes and magically makes it amazing.
They could even work it into the show as the punishment for the loser
I need to see this.
This idea is good and you should feel good.
If they don't do this I'm in Louisville we can meet up and make this a show together
When they first started this show, I thought they would make every possible variation for this reason
Nicole's analysis and reasoning for AP flour over cornstarch is unmatched.
Yeah, can't believe she got all 4 answers correct this episode for the Queen sweep.
Very concise, I feel educated
A mix of AP flour and corn starch is actually the perfect combination
@mindom that's what they tested. That's what "cut with" means.
This is the top comment and it was staring me in the face the whole time, so I was prepared for Nicole's eloquent response. Very appropriate assessment.
I just love how this show evolved from Josh just showing off his silly cooking in the main channel to him having his own channel for silly cooking!
I wish UA-cam still showed thumbs down count
Oof... simp much for thumbs up?
OMG I have not laughed so hard at Myth Munchers until Lily did her chicken dance, I was crying!!!!!!
AND I CLAPPED
I'VE NEVER LAUGHED SO HARD UNTIL I DID
Whoever designed the intro for Myth Munchers deserves an Emmy a Grammy and a Tony.
Give 'em an Oscar, too! EGOT status!
Tony Cs more like
What's wrong with me, I hate it. Perhaps I'm not their target demographic (42 yo Female here)...
Josh and Trevor being absolutely feral and unhinged will forever give me so much serotonin!
Lily's chicken dance was the best part of the whole thing 😂😋🤣
The great thing about the last round is that it showed you can make a decent gluten free fried chicken when using cornstarch. I'll have to cook a batch for my wife, who is celiac.
there's a GF fried chicken restaurant in Vancouver i went to once... it's too far to go more than once a year or so but it was SO GOOD. it's definitely doable!
It was half flour and half corn starch. Only corn starch wouldn't be as good (but doable obviously)
Agreed. I also have Celiac so we do a GF ap flour and tapioca starch blend (also allergic to soy and corn) and it works magically
@@immaculatesausage938 My partner has tried everything and we preferred 40% rice flour, 40% corn starch and 20% tapioca starch. Tapioca comes thru strong but it's good when subtle at 20%. None of them are good alone.
@@immaculatesausage938 Usually find that a double fry works great for cornstarch
I would like to know where Lily learned that chicken dance
LA raves probably lol
It was the mask man
I was like "where's Nicole, I can hear her laughing at Josh" but then they brought her out to eat second-hand chicken so everything's cool
Josh is chaos personified
take out the personified. he is chaos. he is the reasoning for chaos. josh is behind all of the earthquakes wars tsunamis and wildfires.
chaos incarnate
Lily: *dances*
Me: this better not awaken something in me.
yeah i do not need to feel attracted to chicken at this point in my life
Ah you beat me to it! Oh well, glad somebody said it
I really feel they should let the chicken cool long enough to be easily edible. Not only is it a good facimile of fried chicken joints everywhere, but not burning yourself on scalding hot chicken makes comparisons much easier! Also I want fried chicken now.
Lily has easily become my favorite mythical kitchen member
Lily has blossomed into bringing that chaotic Mythical Kitchen energy
lily was kinda killing it in the end u go girl
Vi always looks great but she's GLOWING in this one!! This makeup style really suits her oh my goodness 💕💕
I love the growth of vi and lily theyve come a long way from that awkward 1st episode
They just recently added the first interest hit of over 1k to the 100k I owe in student debt for a lit degree I didn't even get. If I went to Mythical Kitchen Online University, I would've at least learned how to touch hot things without burning myself or whatever Josh does for fun
Did not have sexy chicken dance on the Mythical Kitchen bingo board of Chaos for today. Lmao
I want to enroll in Mythical Kitchen University. You will be seeing my application in approximately a month. Thank you.
having worked at KFC for a time as a cook, we used water to dip the chicken in before breading. originally we used lard to cook everything then switched to vegetable shortening. it goes into a pressure cooker for around 12-15 minutes depending how much is made. we used clamshells with six tiers that would hold 2 legs, 2 wings, 2 ribs, 2 thighs and 1 breast which is a whole cut up chicken per tier. i always made sure the cooker was up to temperature before dropping or you get soggy or raw chicken if you don't (edit : let the chicken drain for a minute before transferring on a rack on a tray and let it sit in the warming cabinet for at least 5-10 minutes before serving to avoid soggy bottom when packed)
Lily not knowing the 'normal' chicken dance but committing to it fully was beautiful.
It subverted my expectations so hard that I could only stare in wonder for about 5 seconds before bursting into laughter.
I think we learned a lot about everyone in Mythical Kitchen because of that dance. It was a real learning moment for Trevor, in particular. Lol
Trevor is so amazing I think the world of him. Josh used his authoritative tone 9:57. Definitely need more of that love when he does that my iconic dynamic duo I’m blessed. We are best friends
Josh calling out Olivia Sui with the whole "I don't wash my legs" bit
Came for the Chaos, stayed for the fried chicken. This cooking crew is top tier
If Josh isn’t the biggest himbo, I don’t know what anything is anymore ❤
Lily officialy going full Josh today is the best 😆. "I got spit on and i lost" lol.
Butter milk doesn’t have protein… *Add to list of Josh nonsense. 9:36
OMGOMGOMGOMFG! For some reason I got "in the air tonight" in my head as I started watching the video. I was singing it in my head and I had just gotten done with the drum part, when Trevor did the drum part with the drumsticks! It was just super crazy. Just me?
The best fried chicken I ever ate was my late sister's. She didn't follow any of these rules and I can't replicate her recipe even following her technique. I feel like she had some kind of magic. My grandmother also made wonderful chicken with a totally different method so I have to feel like some other realm is involved.
Do an episode on curing cast irons...so many different methods. Which would win?
I worked at Chick fil A ., their wet was a mix of whole milk and eggs….. I think the best wet would be half gallon buttermilk 2 eggs and 1 egg white.
For Wienerschnitzel (Viennese cutlet), we use clarified butter. I'm really curious about your opinion and would love if you tried that for your fried chickens too.
Clarified butter has a lower smoke point. It will burn before the chicken is cooked through to the bone.
It's fine for something either small or thin like cutlets. But anything thick or boned does better with something like peanut oil, because you're either cooking at higher temp and/or longer times.
@@Vincent_Beers I'm pretty sure that a smoke point of 250°C (485°F) is plenty, considering that you usually deep-fry at around or below 190°C (375°F). It's also considerably higher than the smoke point of lard, which is merely 185°C (370°F)
It also has a higher smoke point than peanut oil.
I guess you must've mixed it up with regular butter, which indeed has a very low smoke point, and definitely wouldn't work for deep-frying.
Have a nice day
Try different types of wheat flour. Clear or cake flour should crisp more than AP or bread flour
Personally I use mostly flour but then add just a bit of corn starch in because it does help with the crunch. I just think they added too much corn starch to the ap
The reason the cornstarch one is good is cause that is exactly what Popeyes do, they cut the flour with cornstarch.
Was not expecting the "we're just innocent men" reference from Josh and Trevor
I wish they would just re-film Josh’s segment of the intro every episode, just to see how long it would take him to saw through a log with a kitchen knife
Lily's chicken dance was a beautiful thing to behold, what Trevor could'nt handle is his loss.
What you use for coating is very regional. Barberton, near where I live, is famous for it’s fried chicken; dredged in bread crumbs and deep-fried (not pan-fried) in lard. Most places just use AP flour but that kind of flour is different between northern and southern states. Northern AP flour has more gluten than it does in southern states which is why southern chicken is crispier. The solution is to cut northern flour with cornstarch; 1-2 tablespoons per cup. Flour from the south doesn’t need cutting to get the same crisp texture.
Also, we so rarely see Vi's hair out like that. It looks gorgeous!
The one thing I took away from this episode, is that Lily has some moves!
I am a menace to society
Took me til now to realize Josh is making wood chips….
Josh I’m gonna need you to stop food m0aning so loud 😂 I’m listening to this video at full volume and my parents can hear my phone 😂😂
I’m going to ness that as well. But so my kids don’t start asking questions.
How did you guys not do vegetable oil as one of the options with peanut oil, Crisco, and lard? Frankly - I don't care for the taste of stuff fried in peanut oil (and I have a slight intolerance to peanuts so I limit my intake), so I fry in vegetable oil. And it always come out crispy and delicious.
That was NOT crowding by the definition most use. That pan is easily large enough for 4 drumsticks. Put 6 or 7 in there where they are touching and that can't be avoided...that's crowding.
So Josh is the same as Olivia not washing their legs.....
The true problem with this video, isn't the fact that they ate so much chicken in one day. The problem is they assumed that everyone enjoys heavily crunchy chicken. I personally tend to avoid the super crunchy fried chicken. Additionally, while peanut oil is wonderful... not everyone can use peanut oil.
who decided to post this at 3am on a wednesday lmao
fr giving all us night owls the munchies
I love that Nicole is always a walking :D emoticon. not an emoji, not a smile, but a walking :D
This was enlightening.. I know AP flour won, but my sister has Celiac and it's great to know that cornstarch was a very close second and could be a good gluten free option for her..
At the end, you should have a blind taste test to taste the best possible combination and the worst possible combination, and have them judge how much better one is
They should really have these plated blind so they dont k ow which is which and can't prejudge. Perfect example was what to fry it in. They had already decided before tasting which would win. You even hear them change their opinion to make sure it happens: Trevor and Josh eating the Crisco one "no complaints. Good fried chicken" literally 2 seconds later trevor says "i hate both of these so the last one better be good"
I don't have to watch Lard taste better in frying. I'm old enough to remember the taste and difference.
Josh and Mythical Kitchen = chaotic fun time
If you don't sneeze or cough when applying Tony C's, you're not using enough Tony C's
Did Josh really say there’s no protein in buttermilk? It’s literally milk after butter has been made. There is definitely protein. Dude!!!
I wanna note that batches *means* cooking multiple chicken legs at a time, and not over-crowding the pan.
So technically the real choice was batches.
Yep, 4" legs was still just a batch, not overcrowded.
I like how at the end Josh said he got 3 right but he got them all right lol. I'm so confused.
really enjoyed learning the true lore for lard from trevor
Lily has gained 800 followers in 14 hours. Y’all go show her some love
"You don't have to say yes."
Yes he does. Don't lie.
That chicken dance made me question things
The crowding myth wasn’t approached quite right. As long as there’s space between the cooking pieces the pan isn’t overcrowded. Add two more drums to that pan, and the results would be worse, four more would be disastrous.
josh’s pitches for weird schemes and ideas will never not be funny to me
you dont dredge in buttermilk...its a marinade...for 24 hours...lactic acid willl make the chicken tender....and buttermilk DEFINITELY has protein...i am officially offended on behalf of the way you represented buttermilk here...
Man V is gorgeous, and maybe it’s the hair but she kinda looked like jurnee smolett from lovecraft country in this episode lol 🤔
Everybody on MK is incredibly attractive, but Vi just gets more and more gorgeous with each video
What’s the deal with the honey!? It’s driving me nuts
Do it again and tell us the best option for those allergic to peanuts like my sister
Hearing "it's so wet" on full blast while I was in the shower was very strange😂
I don't think that pan was overcrowded. There was PLENTY of room for at least 3-4 more drums in there. I bet you would have a different answer if you actually overcrowded it.
Absolutely no one would consider 4 pieces in that size pan as "crowded" , they're talking about like 8-10 pieces in that size pan, I love y'all, but you're on drugs lol
I love Trevor so much 😂😂 I laughed like hell when he scream cried while biting into the chicken 🤣 Lily's dance was the best too lol
I made the winning combo tonight and it was fantastic. Be sure to watch all of the chicken videos for seasoning and breading tips.
Lily: "I have like 40 followers" Vi:"You'll have like 3 more after this"....18 hours later: 980 followers (lol)
Wanted to shout out to the entire Mythical kitchen staff that everyone is so attractive
Sunflower oil is the best in my experience, but it's only marginally better than peanut oil. For home cooks I doubt it will make a noticeable difference.
I miss the funny methods to tell the next team what won!
We had fried chicken at the old restaurant I worked at and it was a combo of egg butter milk and a little water
First
ideally they would have also tested each wet dredge with each dry blend to determine best because i think there are some variable interactions at play there.
My dad's family owned a takeout restaurant and they always fried in lard. This was from the 50s and 70s. It doesn't soak into the food so it's less greasy than oil. (I guess because it can fry hotter and faster.) Dad still uses lard to deep-fry in when they want a junk food meal...all homemade just like the old restaurant.
I love watching Josh (and the rest of the crew) cook but watching him eat makes me want to throw up. I couldn't even imagine going out to a restaurant with him
Maillard Reaction refers to proteins cooking, sugar carmelizes instead
Watch some Alton Brown and get educated!
Wait what did the crisco do? I know they said something like “makes your mouth feel weird” at the end but I didn’t quite catch it…
Did not touch on do you season the chicken, the flour or both. Brown bag tossed or dredged? Brined, or no? there is so much more to cover on fried chicken.
Lilly got some moves❤
You don't have to do it in batches, but you do have to stir it in the fry basket or it all sticks together and doesn't cook evenly. :/
I love the updated intro, but I'm not really feeling "this myth munched us". Love you guys, keep up the good work ❤
The cut to Trevor slurping chocolate milk was so unexpected I spat out my drink 😂😂😂
Lilly chicken dance is the hightlight 😂
I find it hilarious that Trevor just started playing geometry dash in the middle of frying chicken
