Recipe: www.joshuaweissman.com/post/e... - Jak na to + styl
I thought Josh was going to go through the students' pantries and fridges and cook them a meal from what he found. Would've loved to see him make a gourmet freezer rat dish
I was floored when that wasn't the video. That's such a better idea for a video. It's what he was implying he was going to do
Yea I was wondering what the point is if not that lol
I think he wanted to do it but it didn't look good in camera as the dorms were darker in the visit.
I mean one had month old milk and another 18 months of “kombucha” 😂🤢. I wouldn’t cook with their food either lol. But, I do love that idea too!
I swear, i read your comment before watching the video, and i honestly thought "freezer rat" is some slang for someone who stocks up on frozen food.
I did NOT expect it to be about actual rats from a freezer.
Imagine you're a collage student who watches joshua and then one day he randomly appears in your dorm with your roommate showing him the kitchen.
I would foam out the mouth if he ever cooks me a delicious meal to flex in my kitchen
“college” is not synonymous with “collage”
What’s collage?
And then your roommate calls you Bulker, whatever that means, and proceeds to roast your diet. Smh
those students are posh af. Imagine having food. the most nutritious thing in my fridge is beer.
Not a College student. I'm a 41 yr old dad. Just made the noodles with the stir-fried pork for my family. Solid meal. Keep up the good work, JW
i dig it. cooking isnt fun and it tends to be time consuming, so when you find something tasty, quick, and easy, its a blessing.
@@icecreamman2687 i find cooking fun
@@Harapan162 thats great, but many people dont. id probably even say most people dont.
@@icecreamman2687 i was just saying that you were making all encompasing satement when some people enjoy cooking
@@Harapan162 no i wasnt. i said "cooking isnt fun", which isnt a fact, its a subjective statement. that means its my opinion, i dont have to preface everything with "i think" or "in my opinion".
If you do this again, it would be so helpful for you to only use ingredients available at students local grocery store! As a college kid who’s only nearby grocery store is a Target Express, high quality and specialty ingredients aren’t often available or cost effective :( this would be super helpful for lots of us!
I’m not sure if u eat Asian food but there r some delivery apps like Weee that’ll deliver Asian groceries to as far as Indiana (where I’m at)
Such a good point
Same all we have is Walmart, Cubs, anything elce like Whole Foods, Bakerys, even Target is about 2hrs away. You would be lucky if anything in the Asian section is even in date half the time honestly, bought some Chinese Noodles and they were made like 3 years ago with no printed exp date.
@@arcadeportal32 that's horrifying, how is that even legal
I don’t mean to be blunt, but there’s nothing in this video that you can’t get at a “local college grocery store.” He actually gave a couple substitutions like bologna instead of the fancy ham. Ramen instead of fancy rice noodles.
Then with anything like bread, you don’t need the exact type he uses.
Outside do that, you can get pork, eggs, milk, butter, seasonings just about anywhere. He could make a pt.2, but the aim of this video was meals for college kids using both available supplies & ingredients. Got a little carried away at the end with supplies, but overall it’s very doable.
If you can’t get these ingredients… I think there are bigger issues.
PLEASE Josh do a whole series going to different college student flats/houses and cooking in there with what you can find!! Im beggin you I've been looking for professional chefs to do something like this for years
There some weird people out there. I’d pass
there is a guy called Kwoowk his channel is based around student meals
Yes, thats what I thought this would be.
this was just an ad for his book, I expected him to cook in the students apartment, but nope, ad
I guess I’m trying to figure out the whole point to the beginning going into their apartments?
This needs to be a series, and it doesn’t have to be “for students” or something like that.
I’m an adult and I need more of these recipes lol
MrBeast miss you
Being 65 and retired living on 1200 a month these types on video's are a god send.
@@stevenwoodward5923 happy 90 birthday
It would be awesome to have a series for Latchkey Kids. Our parents were at work and never showed us how to put things together and create meals. Just ended up eating ingredients lol
@@amberwinters1305 you need to be rich and happy
I am no college student but I am a mum in the throes of postpartum depression. Cooking and meal planning has been such a challenge for me lately so I am very grateful and excited to try out your easy dishes! I especially love that you gave us a cost break down at the end. And the fact that this will dirty a minimal amount of dishes is a huge plus!
Thankyou, thankyou!
Congrats mom! Don't be scared to ask for help if you need ❤ wishing u the best
I hope things get better for you and that you & your child both thrive ❤
Best wishes to you and your little one. You're going to get through this
congratulations!! wishing you best of luck with your journey!

Thank you so much!
Thank you
Already seasoned nori packs that are also cheap can be bought, and it really isn't a meal at all idk why it is in this, its not going to fill you and it's not giving you good amounts of nutrients for that price
Honestly I would watch a series of joshua going to different dorms and cooking with their food
@@Medio2507You can find recipes online for Coca-Cola-glazed pork or noodles. Must be full-sugar, tho, not Diet. Bon appétit!
The dude talking about the bulker and the bulker's dad had me sobbing, it had no reason being that funny. Edit 1: THE BABISH KNIFE YESSSSS
Can you PLEASE make fast dinners for a family? Something that you can just throw down after work… that would be sooo helpful. 😭
thank you, my doordash bills were starting to get crazy.
I struggle to get into the mindset of "i need to get meal prep done" instead of "this takes too long and im tired"
Ive started to start cooking my lunch for the next day while im cooking my dinner when i get home, so that I get it all done at once and i dont have to think about it or stress, I just put on my slippers, put down my coat and backpack and start cooking lol.
Having a 9-5 and being in college is CRAZY
but you've made it easier for me!
thank you! Lots of love!
Not even a college student, just a tired dad looking for quicker yet super tasty meals. Really looking forward to making a bunch of these in the coming weeks!!
Update: I made 3 of these so far!
Pork stirfry, this was insane, so much intense flavor, probably better than 80% of any style of stirfry I've gotten from a Chinese restaurant.
Garlic chili oil noodles: Very intense flavor, very good overall. Make sure to use a full pack of noodles. I used about 3 of the 5 bundles of a 16 Oz pack and the chili oil was extremely spicy/overpowering.
French toast sticks: Absolutely delicious, super easy to make, pepper added into a cinnamon sugar mixture is a MUST for me from now on.
You're a student of life.
Good luck, dad! It's a thankless job, but one of the hardest of all.
Pro tip: If you haven't yet, and assuming your children are old enough, let them join the cooking! They'll be more likely to eat their food if they make it themselves.
@@whyplaypiano2844 thank you!! Just one of them now, about a year and a half old, she always is up on the counter wanting to see what I'm doing while cooking 😊
@@NomenclaturalMango watch Brian lagerstrom or Ethan chelzelboski for budget stuff
I would love to see a meals challenge for those on food stamps/ebt/snap. Many of us on ebt have as little as 3 dollars a day to work with, sometimes to feed two people. It would be really helpful to have some idea as to how to somehow make that work, if it's possible.
Oh my god, how did this comment not have any likes or replies? This is freaking criminally underated!
Check out Julia Pacheco if you haven't already! Would definitely love to see a Weissman spin on this though.
I don't know enough about your situation, but I vegetarian dishes are almost always going to be cheaper to make. I would have a look of what products are the cheapest and go from there (there are websites that will give you suggestions of dishes based on ingredients you have). Some suggestions that come to my mind are hash browns, crepes (maybe not anymore with egg prices), bean soup, or vegetarian stir fry.
From my personal experience, when you have so little to work with, you need to strategize and stretch you money out. It's cheaper to make a single big dish that lasts you multiple meals than to make multiple individual meals. And also make the different meals you make revolve around a central protein that was on sale for the weak.
With all due respect to josh this is not the channel you want to watch for cooking on a budget lol
I'm a college student who is now in charge of cooking a couple times a week for my family, this looks really good.
I can attest to the ease of these recipes. I dont often cook like this. But i just made the pork stir fry and it was easy to do. done in no time and tasted amazing. gave some to the family and the look on their face when they tasted it was priceless. definitely going to be making more and getting much more into cooking. Thanks Joshua!

I love how Joshua has his new studio kitchen for maybe an entire month and then immediately goes to check out how the plebes cook their meals.
And doesn't cook in their kitchens, teach them tricks or feed them. Just gets the footage of their kitchens for his video then goes back to his marble studio and pushes his book...
Great video josh. I’m not a college student, just a military dad of 4 that loves to cook amazing food for my family. These like basic or meal prep style videos where one ingredient works for multiple meals is amazing and I appreciate it. I don’t have the time or money for fancy, but I want to give the family the best bang for the buck I can.

The names 😱🤣
i would love to see more of this series but him cooking IN the college kids’ apartments AND using their budget !!! it would be even more realistic bc as much as i appreciate these recipes, let’s be honest, not everybody is able to find nori sheets or puff pastry just like that 😭😭
Do you live in a food desert where the only place you can shop is family dollar?
Nori sheets and puff pastries are at pretty much every grocery store I’ve ever been to, even the super cheap “college town” ones. And they’re pretty dang cheap.
Cooking in their apartments would be great though! With THEIR actual ingredients; i think that would be as realistic as you can get.
I like where you were going with this with one exception, even Walmart has nori sheets and puff pastry.
Nori and Puff Pastry is sold in just about every standard grocery store in the US. Even Walmart has it.
Real Talk, part of learning the cook is learning to adapt recipes to your needs and tastes. No one but you is going to be able to solve your specific problems. If you don't have puff pastry maybe you have biscuit dough which is even sold in some dollar stores. If you don't have Nori you can probably find Tortillas.
@@Kingsley4851 And what if they do? Food deserts exist in urban areas too
I have to drive over an hour to find Nori sheets but I also live in middle of nowhere Iowa
Josh seeing the Babish Knife had me laugh so hard maaaaan. I would love a "college cooking" series forreal. Wonderful video as always !
Dude, me too! The smash cut to it, the sound effect, so funny
do they have beef? :0
no! just funny to see other youtube chefs merch in the wild@@ahumblecookie8997
What’s wrong with the Babish Knife??
@@jetdifiednothing wrong with the knife, Babish is just the other big cooking CZcamsr
7:37 what you described as "churro" , it's actually a dish in Spain called TORRIJA (it's literally bread soaked in egg and cinnamon and then lightly fried much in the fashion you show, the pepper though it's something I will try next time). It's existed as long as bread existed in Spain and it's a very common dessert/breakfast traditional humble food. As with all traditional foods , it uses humble ingredients to make a dish fit for kings.
Soaked in milk with cinnamon, then egg & fried.
Churros are the Mexican version. That's what we call it in the US, for obvious reasons.
@@isoldamNo they aren't. Mexican churros are the mexican version of Spanish churros, which is a different food than Torrijas and they actually look the same as Spanish churros (extruded long bits of dough). The only difference is that in Mexico eggs are added to the dough, something that isn't done in Spain. Look it up for obvious reasons (the reason being you don't check because you just want to be right). you are being ignorant sorry, and the worst type of ignorant because you didn't even check whether you were right or not since you haven't even bothered to google what a torrija is yet you are correcting someone else who happens to know what they are talking about.
or the dutch wentelteefjes just a alice of bread milk cinnamon and egg
Sounds like French toast
Josh, this is one of your greatest videos. Making things accessible. Showing the complexity in the simple. 👏
As a current college student (and this only applies to my personal experience), I have a caveat to all of these recipes: they only work if you have an apartment. A dorm will not work with nearly all of these, mostly because it'll be a single kitchen shared in a dorm of 120+ people (on the low end). Clearly Joshua has no anxiety since he goes to strangers' living spaces and judges their kitchen appliances, but it'd be interesting to see him challenged in that environment.
I know a lot of people in dorms get an air fryer or toaster oven for their room, and just cook in that instead of using the shared kitchen. It's a lot less anxiety than cooking in a shared space.
I mean tbf it’s pretty hard to cook without any sort of kitchen lol. I also just brought a hot plate and pan to school with me even though it was against the rules.
I just got a small pot and pan set and I’m going to try and cook in the shared kitchen for the first time this week. That place looks dirty and cluttered, like people are just leaving all their stuff there for anyone to grab
So yes, but the dorm kitchens are mostly unused so cooking an occasional great meal might be nice for ... networking... shall we say.
@@alissa2228 at my college we were only allowed a microwave and coffee maker in our rooms. No hotplates, rice cookers, air fryers, etc. AND our building didn't have a shared kitchen either.
On 10/13 (Friday) he came to my college UCSD for the start of his book tour. I got to go on stage with him and help him “cook” a dish. I was worthless, still an amazing experience. Thanks Josh for choosing me from the crowd!
thats dope!
thank you so much for this, as a new uni student its been hard to things/find cheap and easy things to make as most days I'm always working on my uni work.
The random Babish knife is sending me! 😂😂 And the “it’s the bulker! He’s a savage” straight up floored me
I think a good video idea would be to have some aspiring home cooks make you their favorite dish and you try to improve it with them and give them advice on ingredients, techniques, etc.
I'd personally love to see that sort of thing. As a home cook myself I'm always wondering how do I improve past where I'm at.
YES! I second this
This would be so cool 😭
i mean... just watch his videos? he often puts in like lessons for techniques etc. also u can just use ur currently most frequently cooked recipe or dish and try to find if josh has a vid on it and try to learn the techniques or combinations he uses for that same-ish recipe and try it with yours, put some twists in it.
Snacking on popcorn literally got me through college. I'm happy it got mentioned here. You can add whatever flavor you want to make each batch of popcorn unique
My favorite is crushed rosemary and little bit of lemon zest mixed with salt.
Chai spice popcorn ftw!
@@DubultaisTthat sounds awesome!
i love adding nutritional yeast and tapatio hot sauce 🙏🏻
Thanks so much for the recipes! I've made the chili noodles a couple of times now, I like to replace half the oil with vegetable stock. It still feels a bit too oily, so next time I'll probably do like 25ml oil, 15ml sesame oil, 60ml stock or something (you want a bit extra)
Loved this list it’s super helpful and I will be cheffing up some or all of the recipes shared! 👏🏽👏🏽
Something everyone should be aware of is that you can find a lot of useful kitchen tools at thrift shops. That girl in Apartment number 2 didn’t have a rice cooker. I found a really solid rice cooker almost brand new at my local Goodwill and I've been using it ever since. I have a food processor I picked up in the same Goodwill to replace the blender I accidentally broke and also bought there. I literally just bought a Mandolin and Hand Mixer from my local Salvation Army the other day.
Keep an eye on your local thrift shops.
I don't mean to detract from your comment, just "theift shops" almost looks like theft shops 😂😂
@@SeraphimDoesSomething ah, thank you. The E and R are right next to each other on the keyboard so I make that mistake often. I'll fix it really quick.
@@michaelgrey1503 aww, I thought it was funny! :D Have a good weekend, my friend!
A lot of thrift stores (at least in Toronto) also have little 'testing centers' tucked away in the back corner where you can test the appliance prior to purchasing so keep an eye out for those! I walked past the one in my go to thrift plenty times before realizing what it was
@@davinar34 I had never thought about it before, but this last Tuesday when I bought my electric mixer at Salvation Army, the clerk had mentioned that there was an outlet on the wall, but it had never occurred to me to test it before buying.
Josh, I'm not sure how often you read your comments section, but this is the type of content I've been missing for so long. I enjoy the cooking challenges just as much as the next guy, but your videos about simple recipes at affordable prices is what inspired me to start cooking (your But Cheaper macaroni and cheese and your Tiramisu are staples in my house). PLEASE bring us more of this style of content!!
My favorite thing to use chickpeas in is a homemade corn nut recipe I started in high-school. I love corn nuts as a snack so I started messing around with chickpea corn nut recipes. Some of my earliest memories are in the kitchen with my grandma. I loved being in the kitchen so much I started my first year of culinary arts school through the trades program the high-school and university had. Sadly going through that first year course also made it so I didn't further my culinary arts schooling which I do regret. Instead I went to a community college and became a healthcare assistant working in senior living facilities. I miss the kitchen and get that love back every time I get to cook.
I love the editing in these videos. Within the first 30 seconds I'm hooked ☺ Well done!
Hey Chef. Fantastic "college" menu. Just one tip. When frying the mortadella (bologna) you can just pop a small hole in the middle and it won't bubble up during the cooking process so it will fry evenly
I just put my foot in the pan to keep it flat
Yea...good in theory but doesn't work well enough to keep down and crisp all around.
Thanks so much for this Josh, I really need it. I've been really struggling with my mental health lately, which makes it incredibly difficult to work towards my goal of learning to cook more often to make family meals for my dad and my friends. Having quick and easy recipes that I can make when I'm having a bad day and have no energy will save me from living off microwave mac and cheese cups again. I love and appreciate all the content you make. Can't wait for the second book and to watch your success continue to blossom and thrive.
honestly I'm struggling a lot too and totally get you! the only difference is I eat microwave ramen instead. I wish you the best, just know you’re not alone!! I believe in you, love! 🤍
I'm guessing if you can find a way to fairly regularly fix yourself healthy, homemade meals, it could also help your state of mind a little bit. I'm not pretending to understand what you're going through, but what I eat tends to affect how I feel.
you sound like you're trying really hard and that is commendable!! I'm sure your dad and friends really appreciate that you're willing to put in the time and energy that it takes to keep them fed and happy, even on the harder days ☺
The best tip to healthy meals - buy fresh vegetables.
Preferebly those in Season (tastier and cheaper) and those that can go with a lot of combinations.
So for example: Zucchini, leeks, carrots, mushrooms, Kohlrabi, Broccoli...
Frozen: Spinach, Peas, Cauliflower
Tomatoes and Cucumber for snacking.
With some other cheap staples - potatoes and onions - and some dried goods (like rice, noodles and chickpeas) you'll have lots of options.
@@theresabu3000 this is a really great idea! Unfortunately, while I’m not really a picky eater, vegetables are my least liked food group :/ but I’ve been trying to find ways to prep veggies that are more appealing to me, like with stronger flavors or full dishes instead of as sides. I do love cucumbers with tajín though!!
Been loving these longer videos!
Awesome video! If you ever decide to make another college meals video you should definitely cook for the college students in their dorms. Their reactions would be priceless!
I can't explain how much I love the diversity of content I've seen over the last couple of years. Who doesn't want to watch someone who knows what they're doing work really well at their craft and show you how to do it too? That's super satisfying to watch. But then add on the willingness to set aside those more "expert" or "fine" techniques and teach people how to make good cheap food? God these videos just get better and better.
I love the college student recipes and their kitchen tour episodes. Joshua is such a kid at heart and it is always heartwarming how he interacts with and teases them. Joshua should do a cookbook for budget friendly/college students.
I would love a part two showing more recipes with the exact same ingredients so that we can use them more than once!
I'd love a series like this or a series like "but easier" where it's recipes but with not a lot of ingredients. Normally your recipes are cheap but only if you have the crazy amount of ingredients required
... use what you can buy?
Josh, please do more college dorm tours. This content is too entertaining 😂
I think this was important to see for anyone in any job. Commitment. Great job
Just discovered you… thank you for your fun, inspiring and crazy informational videos! You inspired me to combine two of your recipes into a spicy cinnamon toasty cheesy breakfast sandwich for our Christmas brunch feature. Now I’m on the hunt for mortadella! Thank you, and happy winter!
Josh, thanks for your videos. For most people they are fun and entertaining. For me I started as a dishwasher and now I’m a line cook. I’ve learned so much of the basics from this show that helped me grow in the kitchen.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Just sobered up, found my place in a kitchen. Thank you for all your tips and guides. Been following for years and gotta put in some work to bring the kitchen home. Thanks Chef. You're awesome.
I love all the work you do for every video. it's like every video is important and respected for you, so it's respected for me too and I make sure to like each one each time.
Now this is a video I needed!! Please josh keep doing these
Love that ethos of using largely overlapping, cross utilizable stuff. Years ago I had the idea to do something like that, but across an entire kitchen pantry- particularly honing in on how easily you could jump from one global cuisine to another far across the seas by changing out just a few items.
Cheers to you for all the hard work and success.
We made the stir fry pork, great recipe and very fast. We added some ginger and some MSG so not to offend uncle Roger. We served it over lo mein noodles. More content like that please.
Chicken picata was one of my favorite dishes growing up. We had it with noodles and I couldn't get enough.
Ordered both of your books because I’m cool like that breh. Keep the good food coming. Love the channel.
I'd love a series where you teach the basics of cooking and cooking basic meals.
This is one of the best easy meal videos I've ever seen. The limitations on ingredient availability and tools was key. For what its worth I'm going to make these for my kids so I can spend more time doing things that aren't cooking
yes please do a college series! thank you Josh!
Thank you for the help ❤❤
This was awesome! I love how you went to visit the students in their dorm or apartment. This will help them greatly. In fact, I'm going to try these very same recipes. Look forward to more of these! 🥰
Josh, we need more of this, pleaseeeee. It's a life saver.
Your videos make me excited about food again. Thank you:)
More of this, both the including the community in the cooking as well as the "beginer/easy" friendly meals!
You just reminded me of an old friend’s photo album titled “your moms beginer” hahahaha
How much I wanted to love it that Joshua was doing a video on this, I feel like the recipes are lacking. None of these will fill you up or makes sure you'll get all the nutrients you need. Would be nice if the next "student meal series" includes full healthy meals with optional vegetarian options.
Or if he used the students for anything other than b roll to sell his book...
And also let me get out my non existing solid stone mortar lol
Not a college student anymore (it's been 3 years, being an adult is hard) but really excited to try one or two recipes out! Thank you so much
thank you so much for this! teaching myself how to cook more dishes...those noodles look so bomb! gonna try tonight :)
Made popcorn in the wok for the first time, using Alton Brown's method (same as this video, but he adds the salt at the beginning). Put the butter along the edge at the end. Perfect. For all of those college students, a wok is perhaps the first pan you should buy. Follow that with an Instant Pot. Being a decent cook who prepared both of my college-age kids with essentials, those two pans, and a decent knife 6-inch chef's knife is enough.
doesnt the first few popcorn suck all the butter in? does it even coat half of them?
I like the idea of slicing the potato for the rosti instead of grating. I'm definitely going to try that, thank you, Josh!
Made the breakfast sandwich for my husband. Can confirm that even if you just use toast and a single slice of American cheese, your praises will be sung. So I can only imagine how good it is if you actually have all the proper ingredients/technique.
Thank you for your recipes. Definitely a 10!
The thing that got me through most of my pre-work life is the simplest thing ever and I could eat buckets of it:
2 med/large potatoes, 2-3 eggs, any neutral tasting frying fat/oil (cheapest kind around my parts), pan with a lid, s&p, dried herbs (italian dried mix works well, if not available: oregano, thyme, basil will work but will change the taste profile as the pretty much only seasoning, so pick your favourite).
Cut potatoes into ~2 mm slices (i can do it over the pan at this point, accurate cuts are not required) and dump them into the pan while it's heating up the oil, spreading them until you cover an entire layer. S&P + herb the whole thing then cut the other potato, layer it on top and S&P + H again. Cover with lid. Fry on medium heat untill bottom layer is golden brown. Flip so the top layer can fry too, cover again. As I'm lazy I tend to add eggs right on top of that, so when nearly done, remove cover, crack in the eggs, preferably away from the sides of the pan, salt the yolks a bit for taste, cut the heat entirely and put cover back on - important! don't lift the cover at all, to check the eggs just shake the pan a bit, solid whites won't move around (unless your cover is not see through xD). Wait untill whites are solid but yolks are still liquid. Serve in a bowl rather than a plate, remembering to burst the yolks, since they will cook in the residual heat of the potatoes.
It sounds silly, but somehow it's more than just the sum of the parts. And it's cheap as f%^&. You need only a pan and a heat source. The only struggle you can have with this recipe is heat control. Some pans conduct heat better, some heating options do as well. If your potatoes are browning but they are still raw in the middle - your heat is too high. If they are wilting and not browning - the heat is too low. That's it.
Options - it goes surprisingly well with garlic mayo based sauce. You can add cheese on top after turning and before adding eggs. Onions added before cheese would work too. Any leftover sausage can be cubed and thrown on top of 2nd layer right at the start to heat up and get crispy after turning. Raw meats should rather be prepped separately and added to the bowl.
As I'm now a responsible working adult, I tend not to eat this often, cause it's anything but healthy. I got time and means to make "better" things, But I'm pretty sure I made and ate hundreds of kilos of this thing in my younger days.
24 mini corn dogs = $1.81. 5 cheapo franks cut into 5 pieces each, 1 egg, half cup each of cornmeal and flour, 1/2 C sugar (could be less and healthier), 1/2 C water, 1/4 C melted butter, pinch baking soda and dash of salt. Put one frank piece into each sprayed mini muffin pan cup and spoon in batter. Bake at 375 for 10 minutes. Any excess batter can be baked or quickly skillet fried and maybe add bits of cheese or leftovers but don't toss perfectly good food. We just had these for dinner and couldn't be easier.
Thank you. I'm going to be moving into my first apartment and needing a recipe spoony meal I can make when my energy is low. I'm also losing a fuckton of weight without trying, so I need something calorie-dense I can make and eat small portions of to get a load of food in.
YOU HAD CHICKEN PICCATA, quite literally my favorite chicken preparation, so simple, yet so much flavor. When I was a kid, my mother would occasionally make it and it just, brings childhood nostalgia
Joshua's videos just feel more raw lately and I love it
Can we get more meals like this please? This was pretty great, especially for a dad who is more or less just starting out with cooking, I'm absolutely going to try some of these and I would love if you showed more, love your videos, I hope you have a wonderful day
And possibly a playlist of any videos similar to this one
I'm not even a college student (yet) but I really appreciate any low effort, quick recipes and all of these look really tasty!
Well done! I am not a college student. However, I am newly relocated to Baja Mexico and I currently only have so much access to cooking supplies. I love to cook and this was the perfect reminder to keep things simple yet delicious. Thank you for this and I love your enthusiasm and personality! You made me laugh and I appreciate that as well.
Definitely buying your cookbook !!
I'm in college and this has helped me so much!
You're the best joshua! All your work is always appreciated🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Thanks for making some vegetarian options in those affordable meals! I watch you for years and genuinely I feel like that I can *finally* make something easy and fast for myself. Thank you, and look forward to more ❤!
Saving this for years to come 👍🏾
Yo, Papa put out fire this time. I have college students ask me about recipes. They can make in their dorm all the time. I would love to see a sequel to this. That makes good use of a crockpot. Since its easy for any dormroom. Plus I think Josh could build some banger crockpot dishes.
PLEASE! Make MORE videos like this!! 😮 Do a version where you go to some RVs that people live in and make meals with their equipment and ingredients! 😂
As a student who literally hates cooking (for myself, it is hard to cook good, and very time consuming), I loved this video.
Especially the sandwich for breakfast and the noodle. I usually have my lunch in the college but, that noodle can save my nights, and the sandwich, my mornings 😂
Thank you, I will most definitely try those two, and maybe also the popcorn.
My house”s microwave is kinda broken, it isnt working properly, so, as a man who loves popcorn and chips as snacks while watching some movie or series, microwave popcorns doesnt work for me for a while now. So maybe I will give it a go as well.
having a terrible day when this vid came up on my recs. never watched any of your videos, but this one made me laugh and brightened my day. thank you very much. you've earned a subscribe out of me
If Josh made a culinary textbook about everything he knows about the world of gastronomy, I’d buy it in a heartbeat. Even at textbook prices. Keep up the great work Weissman!
I think the worst problem for most college students especially ones living in the dormitory is not having a refrigerator.
And there are soo few ingredients that work when not refrigerated.
Please make a video on recipes with ingredients that dont need refrigeration.
Yup and they're forced to eat on campus which is all shitty quality and they gain weight
Why don't you ask him to make a video about recipes which don't require any food at all next lmao.
Wait, so if you live in a dorm, you might not have a refrigerator? Not even in a common room/kitchen? Or on campus for home brought meals?
That's crazy
You are far better off investing in a cheap fridge and you can get ones for less than 150 bucks esp second hand. If thats impossible due to accommodation rules then learning to bulk cook/meal prep once a week utilizing a communal kitchen is what I recommend. You should not be surviving off meals that are made with ingredients that dont need refridgeration no matter how broke you are.
Thank you! My oldest son is about to go to college! I’ve been looking for a way for him to get more inspiration than cup ramen.
Been watching you for quite awhile. Just ordered your book. Don't let me down. Lol keep it up
I was in a food rut and I actually had everything to make the spicy chili garlic noodles and they turned out great! Definitely adding this to my meal rotation.
You just blew my mind with grating frozen strawberries... I'll definitely have to try that some time!
Adding a few of these items to my family's menu for sure.
Was really excited to see some cooking get done in each of those houses/dorms, sad to see it didn't end up that way.
I made your hot dog buns for dinner last night and they were so so good, but not NEARLY as good as they were this morning when I used them for this French toast stick recipe 👏🤤
Been looking for this video my whole life
I love the overhang climbing wall in the living room to much
When I was a line cook at an Italian grill, I cooked chicken picata from time to time. Yeah, it's too easy to break the butter if you're not careful (breaking the butter is when the the butter melted and the oils and fats seperate, that's why you want to add it cold).
Omg this is genius thank you papa🧎♀️
THANK YOU JOSH❤❤
So amazing. I wanna cook them all. Sooo easy yet so yummy!
