    I recently picked up the Weber full-size griddle insert for my 3-burner Gensis II. New to griddling so your videos have been pretty good for fast-tracking me to using it. The insert is Carbon Steel and I like it, but only done 1 cook on it thus far.

    Great, informative video. As Derek said above: Use a TOASTED sesame oil, especially for fried rice. Also use oyster flavored sauce (no, it doesn’t taste like oysters, and it’s a very thick sauce). Just like when using just a little toasted sesame oil, use a little oyster sauce towards the end and mix it in well. Don’t overdo it with either or it can cause your rice to flash steam because of the moisture content and it will overpower the flavor and could make your rice soggy. A little goes a long way. I spent a month frying rice 3 times a week trying to find the taste my family and friends like best, and adding those 2 ingredients resulted in the best tasting restaurant style fried rice.

I don't know if it's true but Chef Jean-Pierre said that clarified butter (or gee) is one of the best thing for cooking. I will give it a try. I won't put too much because the taste is very strong. Much more than standard butter.

    FYI, regular/pure/light sesame oil (the kind you feature in your videos) IS for cooking, frying, and sauteing. TOASTED sesame oil is specifically for finishing. Toasted sesame oil will be explicitly labeled as such, and if it doesn't say toasted (or some I've seen say roasted), then it is a regular sesame oil, which is different than the finishing oil.

That is why you should always stick with 100% real Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Pretty much most olive oil in the stores is fake so beware!) Cold Pressed Avocado Oil. Also Cold Pressed Coconut Oil. As for Butter, make sure it is actually Butter and not Margarine and also try and find grass fed Butter, which you can cook in, if you are cooking at a lower temperature and if it is something quick like eggs or a grilled sandwich.

    I know you should season your grill after cooking and cleaning, should you also put some oil down before you throw something on it? My eggs were sticking this morning and I didn’t put down any oil or anything

    • @JohnnyBrunet
      @JohnnyBrunet  Před rokem

      Yes I start pretty much all my cooks with a thin layer of oil. Especially eggs they will stick on you really quickly. When I do eggs I do a thin layer oil and a pad of butter then I pour down my eggs. The oil keeps the butter from burning and the butter just makes everything taste better. Then you also have two fats down as a lubricant so you get less sticking. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching Zach.

  • @nathanddrews
    @nathanddrews Před rokem +2

    Other than seasoning/protecting my griddle, I use almost exclusively butter (300F) and beef tallow (400F) to cook. You can make your own tallow by saving the leftover grease and fat from slow cooking roasts, etc. then let it separate and harden in the fridge.
    I was shocked to learn how shady cooking oils really are with respect to truthfully describing ingredients and sources. A lot of oils get blended with "junk" oil from other seeds and such that can be toxic when overheated (grapeseed, for example). No two olive oils are created equal, for example, so there's a ton of variation and inconsistency across brands and labels. Some of these questionable oils also ship in substandard plastic containers that leech phthalates, which are bad to consume from on their own, but even worse when heated. Generally, look for glass containers if you can.

    • @JohnnyBrunet
      @JohnnyBrunet  Před rokem +1

      I've heard that too and honestly the more research I did for this video the crazier it was. I still use canola bc it's cheap but aft reading a lot of these comments I might start trying to cut all that oil out. Butter and natural animal fats just seem like a safer way to go.
