    Hey Chefsteps! I enjoy all your videos and watch them all the time. I was just wondering if you've ever thought about making a video regarding plating. I love the way you make your dishes simple but elegant. You use many styles, composition, and techniques. Thanks again. Keep up the great work!

    Why so many people hated on this video? I love what they were trying to show to us! Chefsteps shares great way to cook and plating like what professional cooks do in the restaurants. If you think this is so unnecessarily, just google sth like "10mins dinner" or grab a food magazine in the market.

      Basically, smaller portions, drizzle here and there, and stack the pieces of the dish on top of each other. Garnish is optional. Didn't really need a video on it when its kind of clear when you visit a restaurant. I would have preferred to hear Grant talk like Harry from Kingsman explaining how it works, what works well with what, the kind of plate to serve on, how to present the dish, how to insure the consumer knows that everything is edible instead of leaving the garnish out, and maybe teach us why smaller portions are used when plating in high end restaurants.

    Hey ChefSteps! I went to your website where you told us the knives you guys use and I was wondering, regardless of price, what knife do you feel is the best. I know all of them are good and I can't go wrong but just want to make sure I get the best knife I can! Thanks

    • @nercoG
      @nercoG Před 10 lety +11

      short answer: a sharp knife is the best.
      There is no 'best knife'. All knives have their purposes, but in general, a good sharp Chef's Knife is good enough for most of the work you do in a kitchen. For me there's the holy trinity: a small Paring Knife, a big Chef's Knife and a Filleting Knife. I can do about 95% of my work with those three. The other 5% is a bread knife :D There's a whole lot of others that are better suited for particular tasks, but a skilled chef will only need these three.
      If you are not a professional cook and use knives only at home, I don't advice buying those super expensive ones. They will look nice, but you will not use their potential and waste money. Just get a good sharp one and watch your fingers ;)

    • @KentonMac
      @KentonMac Před 10 lety +1

      nercoG just to add on, learn how to sharpen your knife... learning about your knife and the style you cut is just as important as the knife you use daily.

      Su vide at 104 degrees Fahrenheit, I presume? I use Celsius, so I have no idea what that means, but I guess that since it's really low heat it's just enough to render some of the fat and cook the meat ever so slightly, making it really tender

  • @johnking-qk3qm

  • @bgnin

    • @MichaelSchiciano
      @MichaelSchiciano Před 10 lety +2

      It really doesn't seem to be _that_ bad in terms of salt. It also is a rather coarse sea (probably) salt added, so it isn't like they are caking it heavily in salt (and it also likely adds other flavor/texture components).

    • @PhatTrumpet2

    • @MichaelSchiciano
      @MichaelSchiciano Před 10 lety +1

      Eh, they really never cover the dish in olive oil - the most they do is cover the puree in one of the platings - most of the time the oil is placed around the sauce/puree to act as something you can integrate when getting a bite of the dish.

    • @christhurston728
      @christhurston728 Před 10 lety +3

    • @MichaelSchiciano
      @MichaelSchiciano Před 10 lety

      chris thurston
      This isn't merely being thrown on the plate for looks though, from how I see it - it allows the person eating to control how much olive oil (and other sauces) they get with each bite.

    Whats the point of fine dining? I don't get it. Give me a $1 cheeseburger

    • @InnuendoXP
      @InnuendoXP Před 8 lety +3

      @made md - point of fine dining when you could get a $1 cheeseburger is kinda like the point of going to a concert or gallery when you could just turn on the radio or open up google images, or the point of driving a luxury or sports car when a second hand honda hatchback will get you from A to B just fine.
      It's not 'necessary' and it doesn't service anything that the other doesn't suffice, but you enjoy it a shitload more.
      You benefit from experiencing something about as well as it could be experienced.
      Things become a joy to experience when done well is the point of fine dining. Or even casual dining.
      For an extreme comparison if it's a choice between eating a bowl of perfectly crisp and fluffy roast potatoes at a comfortable seat and table, or chowing down on a slurry of oil, water, salt and potato flour on a chair in an alleyway, though the nutritional content is similar and they serve the same function of biomechanical utlility, the difference is clear. Fine dining when done well, is just the other extreme end of this spectrum.

    • @teekaychanh6914
      @teekaychanh6914 Před 7 lety

      Made md Fine dining isn't for everyone. Just like some people like to buy shoes from Marshalls vs those who buy it from high end retailers. Though it's more often due to affordability rather than personal preference. I'm certain fine dining, at least for you, falls in the former and not the latter.
