I personally would love to see a revival of the Big Night Out/In. seeing the bois out on the town and getting drinks and having fun as mates was such a delight.
But usually when you have a production team there, there is also a script and a time schedule and its work. This is more in between takes, is my guess.
Love the non-rehearsed live stream. Just you guys hanging out and fixing a meal together. BTW,I'm watching from Maryland, USA. Came here from England 40 years ago.
As a parent, I have a new appreciation for Mike and all the SORTED crew. Friends Bond and now parental bond. Thank you for letting us grow our skills in the kitchen and for letting us bond with you as parents, not just friends.
I’m a former chef from Georgia (USA) and I adore watching you guys hang and cook. Brings back some good memories, and I get to learn about food from around the world. Thanks y’all!
The Sorted Food Mystery Nights were always fun. It seemed like that was when the guys let their guard down the most and it felt like more of a hangout with the mates. I really like this style as well. Anything that feels like a "fly on the wall" perspective is a blast. Sorta feels like it's getting back to basics.
And, I know this is an unpopular opinion, good looking food is not determined by looking artsy, but by looking delicious. And Jamie's food always looks like it'll blow your socks off
The Holy Trifecta of Ben going more and more off the rails, Jamie’s quips and Barry being chaotic behind the camera. Also, I hope Mike makes a great stir-fry for dinner.
I'm loving this format. It's really great watching you guys a little more relaxed, simply cooking as you go, and to listen to you conversing about your ideas. I've really enjoyed this feeling of just joining you at home around the bench and chatting.
We love Sidekick! My 14 year old decided not to take foods (cooking) as an elective next year because he can learn to cook with the app! Our favourite packs are the one-pot ones and the ones with less than 10 ingredients.
Could there be 24hrs warning for the live stream? I'm in Australia and then I could set my alarm clock.🇦🇺💜 Watching the video while having breakfast. An absolutely amazing way to start my day. Thank you so very much and keep up the awesome job you all do. ❤
I LOVE the "search by ingredient" function - it suits how I cook and shop so much better, and addresses the real problem I tend to have which is "I need to get rid of x before it goes off." I'm wondering if you can expand it for more than 1 ingredient. Also a video on recipe substitutions - either a straightforward one with Ben explaining it or a challenge of some kind
Second the idea of expanding the ingredient list. It's up to 5 now but my fridge finds that number hilarious. Watching 'expiry' dates at grocery stores tells you when they're going on 50% off and poof! the fridge is stuffed full. How about being able to keep a list somewhere on the app of 100 ingredients 🙄
Had to pause this at the part talking about the advert content on your recent US trip. I don't know about other viewers but for me it is very clear in your content that you are taking care in what/who you work with. It is also very impressive how well it is integrated in a way that works for whatever video. If it needs to be up front and clear it is and it is clearly communicated. If it can sit in the background as an acknowledged product placement it is. While this is not my expertise in life if asked your channel would genuinely be an example I would hold up of how this can be done well.
I've a challenge for SORTED; Cook a meal that's considered low-Fodmap. It would be interesting to see for IBS sufferers (and others who follow the low-FODMAP diet) and interesting to see you try make something tasty without onion, gralic, gluten or lactose for instance! Sadly I missed the stream only just, but would love to see more lives in the future!
I have thought this EXACT same thing! I do think though that there may be some legal aspects to it because the FODMAP diet is ‘technically’ a medical diet and there could be some holes to jump through. If that makes sense.
Can we do a behind the scenes to explain your set? Your set lighting and back lighting are perfect! So that we can kind of get a living tour of what we've seen on camera? Can we get a history of how it has progressed from your first kitchen to what you have now? You've got such a rich timeline of footage. I'm sure you've got a team for set design! Let's say hi!
I loved this: a friendly, fun little insight into the gang; some food in the background; and a dad joke! Please do more of these if they work for you, this was such a nice way to end a busy day :)
9h52 pm..Currently watching this from my hospital bed in Johannesburg, South Africa. Sorted has helped me to cope with my auto immune disease and living in total isolation for 2 years. Love all the content, and all the guys, Kush as well however sorry, guys, but Ben is my all time favorite. Thank you for making me forget about being sick and to get back into the kitchen ❤
I just loaded my slow cooker with country style pork ribs seasoned with garlic,onion,ginger, so hand slathered with a drizzle of oyster sauce. I enjoy watching you guys try to use up all your ingreds, something I have practiced for years. Living in a fairly remote rural area, and doing the majority of my grocery shopping once per month, keeping a pantry stocked with staples and using fresh items over several dishes becomes essential. You fellas have given me several new ideas and never fail to make me laugh! 🤗 Tell Mike and his partner to nap when the baby does. The chores will wait.
@Ben Thanks for talking about freezing/leftovers and Sidekick! I'm just about to start using it and my recipes need to be suitable for leftovers so I can save for lunch or dinner as I'm just cooking for myself. Good to know this is something you're thinking about! I missed the livestream but it was really fun to watch back. Barry - mic yourself up next time
I had to pause this video 3x for kids and responsibilities. Thank you for this format! I feel like I got to hang out with friends while taking a break from kids. Thank you for being yourselves.
Yeah turn up at Mikes with food and cook for him and look after 'lottie! .. will be soo much fun and I'm sure he would love to have some good food in the freezer for those late night meals!
IF on your meal packs instructions you could also give storage instructions, like how to freeze or how to refrigerate or what's the best way to store and reheat that'd be great. I'd even love a whole video on reheating or easy to reheat meals. My partner has some really expansive food issues so I'm usually cooking for myself and taking it to work with me or meal prepping...but I don't want to "meal prep" meal prep...I just want to have leisure time to ENJOY cooking so that when I'm hungry I can reheat easily...or have good dishes that are cold (I enjoy some cole-slaws...not others..heck, a deep dive into types of coleslaw would be amazing). I know that y'all are British and generally make things based on British rules, sizing, etc. and that the Sidekick app does have a place for user comments and changes and suggestions...but if there's a way to get an US/Aussie/Canadian/Other English Speaking So you don't have to translate but use theri common measurements...oh man that's a lot of work isn't it? never mind....but Is there a way to really push the social aspects of the app? Or maybe in addition to the "cheats" have a like...section like "if your food comes in different portions, here's what I did with the extra to save on waste! Or this amount is basically the same as this kind in the UK!" I did live in the UK for almost a decade before returning stateside, so have had to do a lot of back and forth and conversions and changes to my cooking...the interesting thing is how hard it is to stick with one "style" once you're in a place where all the packaging, measuring equipment, recipes, people, etc. are not geared towards that...Sorry for all my stream of conscious thought. I'm really enjoying Sidekick a lot. Thanks for all your hard work! Also: Idea ot incorporate AI: for people with food preferences or allergies, connect AI to the sidekick app in such a way that you can pick a recipe pack that might say, have cucumber (my nemesis) in it and instead of chucking the whole recipe, find a way to alter or substitute that still gives a great dish! Especially for those of us who still aren't completely comfortable in the kitchen no matter how hard we try or how long we spend there. OK, I'm really done now...probably.
Not sure if it's to your taste, but one cold dish I used to make for myself and eat multiple times from was a cous cous salad. I made it with tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, you can add peppers if you like them (I don't), lots of lemon, season to taste. But I'm sure other veggies are doable too! It worked great because a lot of juices come out of tomatoes etc when you leave them in the fridge, so it just keeps flavoring the cous cous. Great for easy summer meals!
I'm with Ebbers on the spreadsheet. I love to cook for people and I want to cook as many things for them as I can. Unless they request I make something specific for them, I would want to note what I've made them so I don't do it again in too short a period of time.
College/Uni student. I live on a fixed income and I have very little free time. Quick, easy and CHEAP! The more packs the better. I convinced my parents to get me the sidekick app so I’d eat better. Love you guys! ❤
It would be awesome if you guys included more dairy free recipes! I’m lactose intolerant (doesn’t stop me) but my partner hates creamy textures. We are trying the app at the moment and it’s fantastic!!
I second this as another lactose intolerant human! I can still do hard cheeses and live yoghurt etc but so many recipes online are so dairy heavy, especially from north America creators, the sheer amount af dairy they use gives me pseudo stomach ache just watching it!
Yes, yes, yes!!! I'm allergic to cow's milk, and no matter how many times I ask for help via videos like this, no channel will do it. Please show all the others that it's possible!!
This was such a lovely surprise to wake up to. For all the people complaining about the camera work...seriously? It was a great stream for something just off the cuff. In the comments, I saw a couple of people asking about diabetic recipes and I love that idea as my sister is diabetic. The recipes for one idea is awesome too.
As someone who lives in the US it amazes me that with the size England that you wouldn't have already traveled all of it. I've been to the lake district, England, Scotland, Wales and I've traveled much of the US but, the US is HUGE! It will take me a lifetime to get my country in. I feel like if I lived in England I'd have visited every part.
Congratulations Mike! I am sending you all the luck with the little one. You got this! Thanks for joining us for a minute! To the rest of you.... Thank you for a great, fun, relaxing video. Barry, your camera work was not terrible. Maybe a couple tips from the camera crew are needed but you also just had one camera. Trying to get everything with one camera is hard while live is not easy! Thank you everyone for making amazingly great content!!
This was fun! I'd love to have Ebbers come cook with me! I live in Washington state near many wineries, fresh seafood, wild mushrooms and I would learn so much! All the guys would be a hoot to cook with❤
I didn't think of it during the stream, but actually you could do a thing on how to handle basic common ingredients and get the most from them. For example, how to prep and use an onion. It seems obvious, it's an onion, but there are things I have learned from other videos that have helped me make better food by treating the onion differently. Different ways of prepping and cooking staple ingredients can help us normals be more flexible on how we cook.
I love Pass It On and Mystery Box challenges...actually I love all your videos. Maybe you guys can do Mismatch challenge, which ties into Mystery Box. I often have small bits of mismatch ingredients leftover and too lazy or tired to run to my local supermarket to purchase more ingredients...how can I make an edible meal without creating a inedible Frankenstein dish?
Hopefully you feature the Swiss trains in your Alps video series (because the great views/dining cars)... The only way you could tell Mike was alive was because he was blinking... Jamie might like the dry-smoked salmon from the Pacific NW (it's how the Native Americans do it). It's a lot better than European smoked salmon.
The one thing holding me back from getting Sidekick is that being in the southern hemisphere, all the seasonal stuff will be out of synch and there'd be soups in summer and salads in winter. Is there an option to invert seasons in the app? It'd obviously not synch up with the CZcams content, but it'd be so helpful!
I didn't manage to catch this while it was live but thank you for remembering your CZcams viewers, not all of us have Intsagram. I'd love to see more poker face, city tours, & a best of Britain tour. We Brits get slated for our apparently bland food but we have amazing regional dishes & brilliant producers that can be show cased. Oh, the mystery nights were great, another one of those would be good or a 'Come Dine With Me' type dinner party thing.
Ben is right, I've just moved to the lake district for work and it's absolutely beautiful here and I can't wait to see it in summer 🤩 Would love to see you guys do a couple of videos up here so I know where to go on days off 😅 As a chef myself your content has always been my cuppa tea, keep up the good work guys 😁
For recipe packs, I would love to see 6 portions. We are a family of 4 and to have leftovers for lunch would be fantastic. I get I can just half the recipe and add it but to have it all figured out would add to the ease.
I love watching these videos. You boys are the same age as my son. I am very much a normal and even at my age you inspire me. I live in Arizona and wish you could come out here.
Actually - I would say that a lot of the Indian food that is available in the UK was developed in the UK by the Indian diaspora, and that the food you get in India is quite different, although you'll find a lot of the same dishes here now. And of course, there are always strong similarities, but Indian food here is just a completely different experience to anywhere outside of India. And you're totally right - the different regional cuisines here are absolutely incredible. I really hope you come and do a tour of India.
In terms of winter camping, you can do most of the cleaning with just snow and ice, it takes the place of a scrubby pad because of how abrasive it is, which means you can use a moist towelette woth disinfectant to finish the cleaning. It's a great method that requires no heat only a little water to mix into the cloth for disinfecting and let's you do multiple dishes with one cloth.
I love this so much! Thanks for posting it, i always miss out on live stuff. You are wonderful people, i really appreciate the wholesome tips and all the bennuendos ❤
One thing i would really like in regards to more information about spices would be grouping them- which spices are similar and what makes them different, which spices go together- like the basic spices for different cuisines.
Oh! And maybe an axis square to help define them. I’m not sure what the axes would be. Grassy, earthy, spicy, pungent. Then have a recipe that shows off that spice, so we can experience it.
I got a real laugh out of this episode. It is genetically impossible for Barry not to talk even in behind the camera. lol . Love this show. Maybe not a better cook, but a happier one.
Today I learned about starch-water and creme fresh. I would like to see a series where Ben gives chef knowledge that normals may not know. Stuff that is first-year chef student stuff, but not home cook stuff. Why do we need to let dough rest? Does ice water “revive” fruit? When do you cross over from “seasoned well” to “salty”?
Fantastic idea! Sorry I missed it live. Idea: Kitchen catastrophes and how to work around them. For instance, I currently have no working oven, only one small hob out of 4, crock pots, and microwave. Getting dinner for 4 on the table in under 2 hours is a challenge. I have to decide how to cook everything in a way I've never done before, every meal, because even if half my kitchen isn't working, the kids need balanced nutritious meals.
I'd like to see you guys do a hop over the North Sea and do some Scandinavian food; it's "local" like your Alps trip and the cuisine is really different from the normal English/French/Italian/American faire you usually have. It's a lot more accessible for you guys than me in Australia and I'd be able to see more things than my family's traditional smørrebrød and æbleskiver at Christmas.
Come to Australia, the Mornington Peninsula to be exact, Ben would LOVE the winery i work at called Montalto. We have the oldest kitchen gardens in vuctoria and base our menus around our fresh produce from the estate. ❤ if you come lunch is on me x
You know what I would love to see in sidekick? A sidenote on each recipe on how to achieve great taste in that particular recipe without adding salt. A salt substitution if you will. My blood pressure and my tastebuds would worship you forever if you could find a way to make all those tasty meals without salt and still full of flavor despite that fact.
I bit late with the comment, really enjoyed this relaxed format - what a collaborative with “Max Miller - Tasting History” with one of your “ Menus that Made History” or other historical cooking videos
I love the idea of you going over to Mike's house and make him some food that freeze well and he can eat for the next few weeks.
Care pack challenge!
I came here to say that. Make a bunch of food, take out enough to eat that day, freeze the rest. Remember to label!
Perfect yes please. 🎉
Bring josh Ollie and Gabby back for a Korean restaurant experience. You guys introduced me to them and I g darn love so thank you xxx
I personally would love to see a revival of the Big Night Out/In. seeing the bois out on the town and getting drinks and having fun as mates was such a delight.
You know, no production team is a vibeeeee! Very chill, real and personal
But usually when you have a production team there, there is also a script and a time schedule and its work. This is more in between takes, is my guess.
Quick question: how do you pronounce five silent Es in a row? 🤔
Love the non-rehearsed live stream. Just you guys hanging out and fixing a meal together. BTW,I'm watching from Maryland, USA. Came here from England 40 years ago.
As a parent, I have a new appreciation for Mike and all the SORTED crew. Friends Bond and now parental bond. Thank you for letting us grow our skills in the kitchen and for letting us bond with you as parents, not just friends.
I’m a former chef from Georgia (USA) and I adore watching you guys hang and cook. Brings back some good memories, and I get to learn about food from around the world. Thanks y’all!
The Sorted Food Mystery Nights were always fun. It seemed like that was when the guys let their guard down the most and it felt like more of a hangout with the mates. I really like this style as well. Anything that feels like a "fly on the wall" perspective is a blast. Sorta feels like it's getting back to basics.
4:55 We want Jamie to cook for us because he does big flavour and big portions, of course!
Truth!
And, I know this is an unpopular opinion, good looking food is not determined by looking artsy, but by looking delicious. And Jamie's food always looks like it'll blow your socks off
The Holy Trifecta of Ben going more and more off the rails, Jamie’s quips and Barry being chaotic behind the camera. Also, I hope Mike makes a great stir-fry for dinner.
I'm loving this format. It's really great watching you guys a little more relaxed, simply cooking as you go, and to listen to you conversing about your ideas. I've really enjoyed this feeling of just joining you at home around the bench and chatting.
We love Sidekick! My 14 year old decided not to take foods (cooking) as an elective next year because he can learn to cook with the app! Our favourite packs are the one-pot ones and the ones with less than 10 ingredients.
Could there be 24hrs warning for the live stream?
I'm in Australia and then I could set my alarm clock.🇦🇺💜
Watching the video while having breakfast. An absolutely amazing way to start my day.
Thank you so very much and keep up the awesome job you all do. ❤
Love love love this recording! Please do more of these casual videos too - they're absolutely lovely. ^_^

Snap its soo hard to find good gluten free recipes
I have thought this EXACT same thing! I do think though that there may be some legal aspects to it because the FODMAP diet is ‘technically’ a medical diet and there could be some holes to jump through. If that makes sense.
So hard to find good dairy free (that is) and that others will eat.
My friend has crons, it would cool to have medical/dietary specific packs

So fun watching you guys just hang out. Thank you for posting after the fact, since I was at working during.
We would love to see behind the scenes on how your whole group works, who everyone is and what they do!
9h52 pm..Currently watching this from my hospital bed in Johannesburg, South Africa. Sorted has helped me to cope with my auto immune disease and living in total isolation for 2 years. Love all the content, and all the guys, Kush as well however sorry, guys, but Ben is my all time favorite. Thank you for making me forget about being sick and to get back into the kitchen ❤

So nice of Kush to have made ready meals! All the best to Mike and his family.
if you ever get James back, I would love to see a James v Kush Battle :D
@Ben Thanks for talking about freezing/leftovers and Sidekick! I'm just about to start using it and my recipes need to be suitable for leftovers so I can save for lunch or dinner as I'm just cooking for myself. Good to know this is something you're thinking about!
I missed the livestream but it was really fun to watch back. Barry - mic yourself up next time
Bless, Mike looks dead inside! It gets better. Then it gets way worse. And then Im told it gets better again. Hang in there buddy!
I had to pause this video 3x for kids and responsibilities. Thank you for this format! I feel like I got to hang out with friends while taking a break from kids. Thank you for being yourselves.

OK, I'm really done now...probably.
I'd love meal prep based ones using simular ingredients, work plus a night course means I'm having to batch cook a lot lately 😂😢
Not sure if it's to your taste, but one cold dish I used to make for myself and eat multiple times from was a cous cous salad. I made it with tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, you can add peppers if you like them (I don't), lots of lemon, season to taste. But I'm sure other veggies are doable too!

How about another canned food meal video, that was so good the last time! That squeaky duck trying to come out of the tin was so funny!....😁
I'm with Ebbers on the spreadsheet. I love to cook for people and I want to cook as many things for them as I can. Unless they request I make something specific for them, I would want to note what I've made them so I don't do it again in too short a period of time.
Absolutely do more of these cute and wholesome hangouts!
Loved that chill vibey evening with you all. Feels very effortless and is extremely enjoyable!
Yes a full chef pass it on would be wonderous.
College/Uni student. I live on a fixed income and I have very little free time. Quick, easy and CHEAP! The more packs the better. I convinced my parents to get me the sidekick app so I’d eat better. Love you guys! ❤

Aussie herbs and spices YES. Tasmanian pepperberry, lemon myrtle, especially as they are tastes that people will ❤
More of these. You guys are so awesome to watch just chill out and cook casually.
As someone who lives in the US it amazes me that with the size England that you wouldn't have already traveled all of it. I've been to the lake district, England, Scotland, Wales and I've traveled much of the US but, the US is HUGE! It will take me a lifetime to get my country in.

To the rest of you.... Thank you for a great, fun, relaxing video. Barry, your camera work was not terrible. Maybe a couple tips from the camera crew are needed but you also just had one camera. Trying to get everything with one camera is hard while live is not easy! Thank you everyone for making amazingly great content!!
I love these casual hangout videos, this was lovely! Please do more!
Love these mellow live streams guys 😁😁😁
The best episode in ages. Love. Love. Loved casual Ebbers. So cute ❤❤❤
This was fun! I'd love to have Ebbers come cook with me! I live in Washington state near many wineries, fresh seafood, wild mushrooms and I would learn so much! All the guys would be a hoot to cook with❤
Hope to see more of this. Such a great time 🤗🤗
Doobydobap and Joshua weissman would be great collabs!
I love that James is still easily bribed to participate in your shenanigans.😊
Meal packs for 1 person!! I always struggle because I meal prep but then get sick of all the same leftovers.
I'd love Barry to come cook for me. He's so random sometimes but also his ideas are so interesting.
High protein dishes, pasta dishes as well. You guys are all awesome! Congrats on the baby!
So proud of you guys glad Prince William thought of you to help get his message across.
seems lots of us miss James! He was so much a part of you guys. But it`s good to know his life is working well for him.
I love how you guys help us learn at the same time. You make learning with friends fun.
I love y’all so much! Butt first! Mike just leveled up! Fridge cam!
Baz you did a great job!!! I love this! Reminds me of when you guys used to do recipe labs live! Loved those! Lol Like massive hang out sessions! 😊
No, don’t stop chefs vs normals!!! It’s my favorite format!
I didn't think of it during the stream, but actually you could do a thing on how to handle basic common ingredients and get the most from them.

I wish there was a dessert section for special occasions with recipes you have done on the show over the years
I love Pass It On and Mystery Box challenges...actually I love all your videos. Maybe you guys can do Mismatch challenge, which ties into Mystery Box. I often have small bits of mismatch ingredients leftover and too lazy or tired to run to my local supermarket to purchase more ingredients...how can I make an edible meal without creating a inedible Frankenstein dish?
Hopefully you feature the Swiss trains in your Alps video series (because the great views/dining cars)...
The only way you could tell Mike was alive was because he was blinking...
Jamie might like the dry-smoked salmon from the Pacific NW (it's how the Native Americans do it). It's a lot better than European smoked salmon.
I love this I've been watching the replay while I've been working and it's been fantastic
I think Ben's spreadsheet is very wholesome and it's great
You guys are so much fun!!!! More Live's Please😆
The one thing holding me back from getting Sidekick is that being in the southern hemisphere, all the seasonal stuff will be out of synch and there'd be soups in summer and salads in winter. Is there an option to invert seasons in the app? It'd obviously not synch up with the CZcams content, but it'd be so helpful!
Oh my goodness this was such a fun way to spend my lunch hour!
I’d love more vegetable focused meals. And more meals with legumes (Beans, lentils)
love this livestream! the produced videos are great, but I love the more chill, personal environment! more please!
I've just thought of the ultimate collab. Atomic Shrimp. Collab on a limited budget challenge.
At 37:30, the looks Jamie and Ben shoot Baz are two very different looks and both amazing!
Love the livestream guys, thanks!
I didn't manage to catch this while it was live but thank you for remembering your CZcams viewers, not all of us have Intsagram. I'd love to see more poker face, city tours, & a best of Britain tour. We Brits get slated for our apparently bland food but we have amazing regional dishes & brilliant producers that can be show cased. Oh, the mystery nights were great, another one of those would be good or a 'Come Dine With Me' type dinner party thing.
Ben is right, I've just moved to the lake district for work and it's absolutely beautiful here and I can't wait to see it in summer 🤩
Would love to see you guys do a couple of videos up here so I know where to go on days off 😅
As a chef myself your content has always been my cuppa tea, keep up the good work guys 😁
Nicely prepared and well presented. 😋😋😋
Thoroughly enjoyed the whole process.🤩🤩
Las Vegas Nevada really enjoys watching all of you🎉
I love this way of them just cooking and chatting ❤️❤️❤️❤️
For recipe packs, I would love to see 6 portions. We are a family of 4 and to have leftovers for lunch would be fantastic. I get I can just half the recipe and add it but to have it all figured out would add to the ease.
I love watching these videos. You boys are the same age as my son. I am very much a normal and even at my age you inspire me. I live in Arizona and wish you could come out here.
I think Barry did a really god job! And so did everyone else. Hope there'll be more of these.
This was such an easygoing and lovely video, I was working so watched it just now ❤
Actually - I would say that a lot of the Indian food that is available in the UK was developed in the UK by the Indian diaspora, and that the food you get in India is quite different, although you'll find a lot of the same dishes here now. And of course, there are always strong similarities, but Indian food here is just a completely different experience to anywhere outside of India. And you're totally right - the different regional cuisines here are absolutely incredible. I really hope you come and do a tour of India.
Loved this. Love how Ben just ate all the food. Xx
In terms of winter camping, you can do most of the cleaning with just snow and ice, it takes the place of a scrubby pad because of how abrasive it is, which means you can use a moist towelette woth disinfectant to finish the cleaning. It's a great method that requires no heat only a little water to mix into the cloth for disinfecting and let's you do multiple dishes with one cloth.
This is my 4th time watching and wow we just got to see very great examples of communication between friends! I love you guys
I love this so much! Thanks for posting it, i always miss out on live stuff.
You are wonderful people, i really appreciate the wholesome tips and all the bennuendos ❤
One thing i would really like in regards to more information about spices would be grouping them- which spices are similar and what makes them different, which spices go together- like the basic spices for different cuisines.
Oh! And maybe an axis square to help define them. I’m not sure what the axes would be. Grassy, earthy, spicy, pungent.
Then have a recipe that shows off that spice, so we can experience it.
Loved this, please make this a more regular thing, I'd love to catch a live one at some point
I got a real laugh out of this episode. It is genetically impossible for Barry not to talk even in behind the camera. lol .
Love this show. Maybe not a better cook, but a happier one.
Today I learned about starch-water and creme fresh. I would like to see a series where Ben gives chef knowledge that normals may not know. Stuff that is first-year chef student stuff, but not home cook stuff. Why do we need to let dough rest? Does ice water “revive” fruit? When do you cross over from “seasoned well” to “salty”?
You lads helped me through a dark time, thank you for that
Barry snaffling one of the dishes. Made me smile.
Fantastic idea! Sorry I missed it live.
Idea: Kitchen catastrophes and how to work around them. For instance, I currently have no working oven, only one small hob out of 4, crock pots, and microwave. Getting dinner for 4 on the table in under 2 hours is a challenge. I have to decide how to cook everything in a way I've never done before, every meal, because even if half my kitchen isn't working, the kids need balanced nutritious meals.
Good morning from the breakfast tomorrow crew 🇦🇺 😂 love waking up to new videos.
This was so good. Watched it with my own dinner and just chilled. I would definitely like more of these type of videos.
I find I care less about the cooking dinner and more about seeing you guys be friends. .... Mike! Perfect timing
Utterly fun! Hard to hear a lot, but still..."hanging out eating dinner". And isn't that how this whole thing started?!
I love Ben's organization! It's such a chef thing lol hosting is in his blood
I'd like to see you guys do a hop over the North Sea and do some Scandinavian food; it's "local" like your Alps trip and the cuisine is really different from the normal English/French/Italian/American faire you usually have. It's a lot more accessible for you guys than me in Australia and I'd be able to see more things than my family's traditional smørrebrød and æbleskiver at Christmas.
Come to Australia, the Mornington Peninsula to be exact, Ben would LOVE the winery i work at called Montalto. We have the oldest kitchen gardens in vuctoria and base our menus around our fresh produce from the estate. ❤ if you come lunch is on me x
You know what I would love to see in sidekick? A sidenote on each recipe on how to achieve great taste in that particular recipe without adding salt. A salt substitution if you will. My blood pressure and my tastebuds would worship you forever if you could find a way to make all those tasty meals without salt and still full of flavor despite that fact.
"Jerk in the park?"
"Ooo, back to your first date?"
I laughed so hard, I had a coughing fit
I bit late with the comment, really enjoyed this relaxed format - what a collaborative with “Max Miller - Tasting History” with one of your “ Menus that Made History” or other historical cooking videos
yesss, definitely more of these. sadly i did not catch this one live, but it is really nice watching it back :)
