Yes, Esther Choi is taking over the gadget test show, but DO NOT WORRY, Cliff isn't going anywhere! Check out Cliff's latest episodes of You Can Do This! right here: czcams.com/play/PLUeEVLHfB5-Qx2rpK2qyL_em-hSp_nbJU.html
where is nick solares? and lucas?
Thanks for the heads up. But maybe put out a new show the same week you ax his old show. Or say something about it when he throws over the new show....And by the way...she needs a lot of work.
To be specific.She talks too fast, she doesn’t have great kitchen skills, she doesn’t really do anything remotely scientific(like timing the process). And she just generally seems inexperienced and silly.
Cooking with Jeff She got more views than you.
you make 'chaes in business' reaserch well worth its money
As the great Alton Brown would say, "There should only be one uni-tasker in the kitchen, the fire extinguisher."
And even the fire extinguisher he's figured out how to make a multi-tasker thanks to his jet-cream.
I generally agree with that but some unitaskers are worth it. He did use an Espresso machine on some episodes, and that is a uni tasker. Same with a burr grinder. For myself, I'm Asian. I need a rice cooker.
I love Alton Brown, though your comment is righteous. To me it sounds a bit like an obituary, Alton Brown is very much ALIVE!
How about women?
Lance Lindle Lee don’t expreso machines make many types of coffee?
I think that a fair comparison isn't just the time to skin, but the time to skin and clean the tools.
I want to see her try with a knife she’s comfortable with, and not just a random chef knife.
Chet Coenen and a knife that actually was made for skinning fish or atleast a sharp cheffs knife
It doesn't look like she's comfortable with any knife.
@@thesimplecooks haha that's the truth
Horrible skinning skills.
That saiyan body armor she has.
Its the modern ones like vegetas w.o the old school shoulder guards
Or you could use a filet knife.... You know.. A knife that's designed specifically for this... You can get a $5-10 cheapy and do a waaaay better job than a chef's knife.
SwordChux I was thinking the same thing. She was using the wrong knife.
Ehh, it really just depends on technique and how sharp the knife is. I clean fish probably 3ish times in a good week with a 13in bowie knife. I couldn't use that flimsy fillet knife ever again after i did it once at the lake cause i forgot my fillet knife.
It looked as her knife skills were off as well. It definitely seemed that the knife was too big for her. She just didn't in my opinion have command of that knife. I wouldn't spend $150 for that product. Skin zit that looks like a Atari joystick.
The only time I ever eat fish without skin is when it's sushi.. Otherwise leave the skin on it gas great flavour and crunch
Why? The old dude was the perfect host for this. Never change a winning formula and all that.
EDIT: He's also the one who helped build this whole segment and it's fanbase. Kinda disrespectful to just shaft him when it's finally up there in terms of popularity.
Still here. Just hosting You Can Do This and my friend Esther is taking over gadgets. We used to work together and thought she's be a great fit.
He's not old.
Clifford Endo But...... You can do this!
budum tss!! ;p
Lank Asif solid.
Maybe Cliff has something new and exciting in the world, and he needed the extra time to work on it?
Auntie Esther, you win at life, Skinzit can have this one.
Um you need to add in clean up times too. How fast can you clean the skinzit vs. the knife?
Haha good point. That machine does not look easy to clean at all
I know right. All that gunk in the gears and germs
Ever used a filet knife before? Amazing that the chef’s knife didn’t mangle more of the fish!
Low key that guy was the only reason I was subbed
Khoa high key was literally the only reason I'm subbed. Hope this is just a late april fools prank or something
Still here! Just hosting You Can Do This now. My buddy Esther took over the gadget portion for me.
Ill still be making videos for this channel Triton. Just going to focus on You Can Do This.
Clifford Endo I can't tell if this is a real account or imposter but I hope that's true because You Can Do This is the best thing about Eater
Well I guess Clifford Endo is the bestthing about eater based on the outrage lol
People complaining about knife skills, but this is a gadget meant to be used by people who probably don't have knife skills (or don't have the strength to do it), so I think it's rather fair that she's not super fast/super amazing at skinning a fish. Not every gadget is meant to be for a sushi chef or to be for everyone. But I bet if you have issues holding knives or have a large family, and eat a lot of fish, this would be great. She seems very lovely, looking forward to more videos~
that is true but people with no skill will probable ignore that part where it says not get the electrical parts wet. now you have a 150 paper weight.
Esther Choi is a natural in front of the camera. Love this. 👍
Thank you, please stay tuned and watch the whole season :)
Esther Choi and you're beautiful too!
I know I should eat more fish, but filleting a fish properly (no bones, no scales) is a skill I have yet to master
wrong knife and bad skills vs 150$ . not a fair comparison
But not everyone is a pro. If you are, you wont need the gadget. So for everyone else, seems fair
For a non pro the speed doesn't count much.. non pro usually have a fish per couple of days /weeks . those 150 $ better to invest in a good knife . Skills are coming practicing. It is outrageous that someone promote such gadget at such a price. I am also pretty sure the tool is bruising the flesh .Sure, everybody is free to buy whatever they want .
A non pro just tells the fishmonger to skin it for them.
Doesn't a Zwilling knife cost like 200 bucks?
Eg gy most non-pros probably dont buy at a fishmongerer tho, but at a supermarket.
Also take into account that you have to clean. Cleaning a single knife is much faster then cleaning that machine. Also if you master the skill of skinning a fish with a knife you can do a much better job, much faster.
My favorite Eater personality is undoubtedly Cliff, but now with Esther I get to have have two favorites on screen personalities.
Why's everyone hatin' on Esther? Homegirl such a natural in front of the camera!
And it even has an IR connection so you can play video games while scaling fish! (Note: This model was just declared: "World's Largest Dual Purpose Joystick" by Guinness).
But Cliff was the reason i liked the series.
Earl, you are the reason I like CZcams. I'm still around. Esther is just grabbing this portion of the show.
Same for me too. It was more than just hosting, he actually had skills and could explain why something worked. Nothing against Esther, but this is a sub-standard version of the show IMO.
#bringbackcliff
xiiyaenxzi the try guys have their own CZcams channel with keith
@@nachiarahcadelus8806 And it's horrible. The editing is bad as well. BuzzFeed Worth It is so much better with the current three along with guests. It's the only reason why I subscribe to BuzzFeed.
can totally see her chef side coming through - DO NOT PISS HER OFF IN THE KITCHEN
You don't use a chef knife. If you used a fillet knife and knew what you were doing it woulda worked better fillet knifes bend for a reason
Cliff was the reason why this was fun.
I have had various fish skinners over the years. Very few tools over thrown in the trash. They all made it on that list and all had basically that design.
I remember people not liking cliff back in the day. Shes seems like a natural on camera.
not gonna lie that gadget is way better than i thought it was gonna be...
0:50 picks up fish *slaps it down* 4 seconds later: picks up fish *slaps it down* 4 seconds later: picks up fish *slaps it down*
Do You Need a $150 Automatic Fingercrusher? This new torture machine from hell can sure do the job!
She was trying to hack that fish up with the knife.
The Skinzit seems like an awesome product. You could probably even fry the fish skins and make a good dish
she sounds like one of those people who thinks they know everything, but they actually don't, and when they are wrong, they are complete in denial.
You can do this much faster using thin flexible knife. And keep it sharp.
Bralette over mesh top, Next level right here!!
Loved the intro with Glenn
Fish spinners are great in large scale fisheries or high volume fish and chip shops. As you don't worry about waste and you can anyone do it in a half hour.
but if you eat fish 3-4 times a week you would probably figure out how to skin a fish cleanly quickly and the gadget that needs signifcantly cleaning and to be plugged in is probably just overkill.
the gadget did an amazing job though
If only she knew how to skin a fish with a knife. They don’t need to replace the knife they need to replace the person cutting! 😂
The one thing you all forget is we, the people aren't good chefs and these gadgets may not always be the fastest or the best but they get the job done when we don't have time to learn.
...Filleting a fish with a chef knife? Oh boy, I have no words.
Right, so people used to bombard You Can Do This videos with dislikes and mean comments whenever Cliff did equipment reviews instead of cooking and DIY. Now that they broke it off into a separate show with Esther as host, people say they liked Cliff doing the reviews...
wait do ppl really done that?
Thanks Esther. Not everyone is a chef and knows how to do things perfectly, except for everyone commenting in here, so I enjoyed your review and was impressed by that thing but ill never buy it because I don't skin enough fish. I'll do exactly what you did with my knife. 😉
I know this is a bit off topic, but I’m loving her hair color.
People be saying food too expensive, me: i cooked my own fish that i caught with my own hands for 23 years for free, i also hunt deer because you shouldn't eat only fish, and grow your own damn broccoli or potatoes like damn i love broccoli
Oh boy, that machine is a torture device 🙈
saw it in red sparrow.
Is there a walleye eliminating pruduct?
Why is she using a Chef's knife and not a filleting knife ?
Chris Lloyd because she "owns a restaurant" and she knows what she is doing... sarcasm...
dayum girl you make my pulse go BOOM BOOM BOOM
Cooking fish with skin on is a lot easier than cutting it before-hand, the skin falls of easily once the fish is cooked
I actually like having both Esther and Cliff on Eater.
Cliff testing gadgets is what made me subscribe to this channel 😥
I'd invest in one of those things if I owned a restaurant, cuz it does seem like it'd be faster than the knife if you're aiming to save as much fish as possible, but for just at home cooking, I'll stick to the knife and take a bit more time
chef knife to skin a fish? ehhnn what... should be a flexable fish filleting knife
I'd love to see more of Esther on the show. She's gorgeous too
Next Fish Skinner vs. sharp knife?
Dewabarasunderan Next: Fish Skinner vs The CORRECT Knife
Cliff made the show bring him back
I only watch Eater shows hosted by Cliff. Literally.
I'm here for you Kevin. More stuff coming soon.
Knife is too dull and is way too big. It might be good for steak but not fish.
why so many downvotes? I thought she did a great job!
3 reasons
1. It's a completely unfair comparison
2. It's a different host
3. $150 for a gadget that should be in the $20-40 price point.
(I personally thought she did a good job for what it's worth. but I downvoted because of number 1 and 3)
We want fat guy.
strangulator42 I think she's fine as a host, but sucks ass with a knife and didn't use the correct one. I'll show her how to skin a fish
Clearly the comparison is biased. She is not even trying to do a good job with the knife. It's a lot easier to do it with a knife.
Thanks for the vote of confidence! :)
a gadget should solve a problem or make a job easier and faster. I agree that if you eat fish often enough this gadget is worth the cost because it won't waste or damage the fish. Plus it looks awesome and fun.
From the screen cap I thought it was another Netflix psychological thriller trailer.
bring back cliff, he is why I watch
Still here. Just going to focus on You Can Do This.
I just bought one, and it works perfectly. I just skinned both my arms.
Im not an expert or anything but using a knife seems much classier. Its real craftsmanship plus a knife is much easier to clean. But hey, if you wanna spend 150 bucks on this gadget - to each their own.
1. The only kind of people that would buy that thing work in the industry.
2. You need a fish knive,
I haven't seen her try to take the skin out of that gadget, and good luck cleaning it!
I can't wait to get my hand caught in there!
I love how the timer went from 38 seconds straight to 44 on the fish skinner
For the fish I eat and prepare, I keep the skin most times. It's a shame people waste food.
I have done two years culinary arts and you are using the wrong knife you need a flexible fish knife to skin fish with that’s why it’s not working
I luv her, don’t let her go anywhere
Just remember guys, this person is apparently a chef.......can't even skin a fish LOL
its those killer spinning factory machinery that has the most accidents...but for fish.
It’s too expensive for people who don’t eat enough fish but there the ones that would need it. I’ve been filleting fish my whole life and if you use the right knife it’s easy to do efficiently. You also recommended this for people who eat fish a lot but those people most likely have become proficient with just a knife
Ok but is anyone impressed that it actually fucking worked o___o?? i wasn't expecting it to fuck the fish up totally
This would be good if you got an entire crate of fish to skin
For a small restaurant this would be like the perfect tool
Esther Choi is great!
anyone else read the title as “flesh skinner” and almost scream?
Congratulations on your *Restaurant* OWNERSHIP
2000 Just be normal and use a knife
2030 just be normal and use automatic fish skinner
I'm Bangladeshi this would be ideal for me, because you know, us Bangladeshi people love our fish more than anyone!
only kidding I don't really like eating fish, yes I'm s disgrace to all of Bangladesh, i know😂 hehe
Cooking is a hobby for me
A fillet knife is $20, and would do a better job then both of those. I was surprised at how well it worked though
I prefer the fillet knife when skinning the fish
You could of skinned it with a knife way way quicker you need a sharp filleting knife and the right angle watching my uncle fillet is amazing he can do one side in seconds
hey 😠 Cliff is the reason im sticking into this series
Your knife was a bit large on such a small fish. The blade should be narrower and thinner.
The knife is only a tool, the outcome of that performance is based of the experience of the wielder. Not to be disrespectful but you have to learn the proper skills before judging the technique. Cleaning that machine would take more time for me then making 4 files of fish and cleaning the knife. Since the skin of the fish is very tough you can have a bigger angle towards the skin without cutting it. Also leave a bit of flesh on the tail side so you can get a good hold of the file and help pulling it towards the knife. This will help you to get at least 97% of the fish with a bit of practice. :)
PS Hold the skin tightly between the knife and cutting board to make sure only the skin can slit through. Trust me ;D
Fish skin has the most nutrition we should eat it and you ask to pay $150 to throw that nutrition away amazing
i like the skin of the fish doe... it’s like chicken skin but from the sea
Deep fried fish skin is amazing if you ever tried it
bring back cliff . he makes more sense. her argument was FOR the gadget where cliff would have used the same arguments against it lololl
The Skinzit cud also consume your money in half the time!
Does it include the time of cleaning?
These things are dope. Difference in this episode vs the rest is the skinner is designed for commercial use
That machine made me nervous. I thought she was gonna get her finger stuck in there!
I mean if you used the correct knife it would have taken half the time. That thing ain’t worth $150 if you can’t even skin a decent size fish.
did no one notice that the skinner timer went from 38 to 44 in 0.5 seconds lol at 2:19
I like how she blames the knife like it has a mind of it's own
Keep the skin on - it adds texture and flavour. Just scrape the surface to remove any scales.
I liked cliff.... Wtf..... I mean your a nice lady but.... Wtf....
Cliff is still the host of You Can Do This, thanks for watching!
I like you too Matt Forbes.
I like esther.. she's prettier than cliff... I mean cliff is still pretty but you know esther
