Kush is the opposite of Ben. Ben is a 50 year old in a 30 year old body and Kush is an impish 10 year old troublemaker in the best way
Perfect description 🤣
A 30-year old in a 50-year old body?
Love Kush! More videos with you in please Sir! Barry, you’re good too!
They balance each other
He the best paki
Kush is trying to be serious like Ebbers, but we love his chaotic energy 😁
He reminds me a little of James which is a good dynamic to have, specifically in regards to the Scales XD
I don't love him, what nonsense.
The speed at which Kush can weaponize the lock box is both awe inspiring and spooky
It made me think...is there a maximum time? Cause I can see this going the way of the iPad lock out in the hands of a kid and easily getting to 3000 days :P
@@TheBeccabusimagine the battery dying halfway and when you put a new set in it resets the timer😂
@@justingoh3622don't want to even think about it😂
The real question is, Did Barry wait the 5 hours or is the box now shattered into pieces?
@@TheBeccabus Exactly my thoughts: I can easily imagine keys, phones, etc getting locked in here for days because of kids.
I love Kush saying he's gonna be really strict and serious, and then stealing Barry's airpods and locking them in a box
It would be fun to do a challenge with those lock boxes and throughout the challenge certain ingredients get unlocked so they have to be smart what they make and how they make it based on what's available yet during the time
Oh I totally agree!!!!
Ooh, or cover the sides of the box and hide a mystery ingredient inside, that they don't get access to until partway through the competition? But they have to adapt and use that ingredient in their dish or it's an automatic fail.
I think their point about dementia patients or children as use cases are the best. I agree. I have zero self-control. If I want a cookie, im having a cookie
@@christiang6960
Or they lock the next person out of an ingredient.
Oooh, do it in a pass it on!
The big question is will Ben be able to take home the cheese curler before Baz adds it to his collection of gadgets that found their way to his house?
Ben will take this one 😆
@@SortedFoodas he should!
The bigger question is: Pretentious or not?
@@yendub absolutely not. Tête de moine has been cut that way since the beginning.
@@martynamaczyszynIt's really the only way to eat it, isn't it? I know such cutters specially for this cheese since my childhood. And I'm from germany. And it is soooo delicious!
Ebbers looks COMPLETELY different with a beard. Holy cow 🐄! He went from a tiny little baby to a full grown mountain man.
Want to see a bearded Ben and Jamie next to each other
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT. I was so shook I did a double take!😂
Photoshop?
Judging by their shorts, I'm guessing wasn't even just photoshop, but a generated photoshop image...@@sarahcampbell8513
I'd have said he went from a tiny little baby to a tiny little baby with a fully grown mountain man beard.
Kush and Barry giving off the older brother/younger brother competing vibes (especially when Kush locked Barry’s AirPods away). I love it
I've had the large Kitchen Safe for 7 years, and love it. I actually bought the smaller one later - the large one is for biscuits or cakes, and the smaller one for nuts, crisps and similar.
My problem: I can have a sealed packet of biscuits in the cupboard and not be bothered. But once I open them, I will go through the whole packet.
I first got around it by not buying biscuits, chocolate and snacks, but that is miserable, especially when friends visit.
The really interesting revelation was when I discovered that I didn't have to set it to 5 or 12 hours, or a day, for it to be effective. If I just set it to one or two hours, when it unlocked, I could know that biscuits were there, but they wouldn't bother me. I realised that it was the first biscuit I ate that caused me to want the second, and so on, bingeing through the pack. If I took one, locked the safe, and then ate it, I could enjoy that biscuit, and by the time the safe opened again, the urge to binge had gone.
I then found I could use this practically - having a cuppa and a biscuit/cake break, then *immediately* going out into the garden to do a job or something similar. By the time I came in, I no longer wanted another biscuit.
A wonderful gadget for anyone with this problem.
Totally agree! Wish I could like this more than once. ☕🫖🍪
There's definitely something about how accessible a food is that makes it so much easier to binge eat. I like to have some ice cream for dessert. Come evening I'll grab a bowl, scoop some out and put the ice cream back in the fridge, and that's enough for me. But a few weeks ago I bought a box of ice cream sandwiches because they were on sale and suddenly it was mid-day and I'd find myself grabbing one to snack on in addition to my evening dessert. Suffice to say, the box didn't last long.
There's just something about an open package of snacks that makes it so easy to grab some whenever you feel like it. I can absolutely see this sort of lock box gadget helping people deal with that snacking urge.
Kitchen lockbox would need to be opaque.
If I see it, it calls to 🎼 meeeee.
@@joansamuels3241 Both are available - clear plastic bases and white plastic bases. The tops come in a choice of colours.
My diabetic aunt on her see food diet could really use this. She's been known to polish off whole packages of cookies at a sitting.
I love that Kush is getting more screentime. He is quickly becoming my favorite to watch. I'd love to see him do a Chef Low Budget vs. Normal Unlimited budget battle
Big Agree with this
Ben is great at this, and I think seeing Kush's take on that would be just as amazing but in a different way.
Man, I still remember when Kush got onto this channel, he was all awkward and shy. Now that he's gotten used to the camera, he's an absolute chaos gremlin - it's great! Love the energy.
Kush having worked in a Michelin star restaurant is becoming like Ben having had an allotment. As in: he never mentions it. 😜
Or that time went to Japan/Asia
8 Things I did not expect to see in this video (but did):
1. Ben Ebbrell with a beard
2. Kush reminding Barry that everything between them is a competition
3. Barry Taylor ranting about the word 'ergonomical' being overused
4. Barry Taylor washing dishes at the studio
5. Barry and Kush role-playing as mummy and baby
6. Kush locking away Barry's earphones for HOURS
7. Barry and Kush having an almost extreme reaction to the glass chopping board
I have to imagine that pun-crafting ability is stated as a requirement on the Sorted job application form
It definitely is!
These puns Kush is getting into the reviews are absolute bangers 😂
He’s very quick 🤣
God, I absolutely winced when they started chopping on that last gadget; I absolutely HATE that noise and I can absolutely see why Kush got rid of all of the glass chopping boards.
What I can't understand is why they had glass chopping boards to begin with!? I mean, seriously? _Why_ ?
@@whydoineedanameiwillneverp7790 I suppose it's all for that certain... aesthetic.
If you want to give the Girolle a special twist: They sell chocolate wheels specifically for this purpose so you have fresh chocolate shaving at the table if you want to be fancy during dessert 🍫
I’ve seen people do it with flavoured butters too! 🤤
I love how Mike is now just casually tasting and enjoying cheese. A few years ago he would of had green colored face just by smelling some 😂
My thoughts exactly.
The scouring pad glove would be excellent for those who have difficulty grasping items. This enables independence in doing tasks that others take for granted by doing with ease.
An episode on knife sharpening gadgets would be fun - there's a lot out there, and a lot of entertaining tat too. The Precision Adjust system comes to mind as a good start (for an actually decent gadget)!
Mike and cheese have reached an epiphany, he eats it without a flinch now and is actively trying it!
Love seeing Kush getting more screen time🎉🎉🎉. Hopefully there's more to come🤞
Kush, once again, talks sense, while simultaneously being the funniest in the kitchen.
Love Kushs reaction to the glass cutting board. Couldnt agree more. Just the thought of cutting on that sends shivers down my spine... and im by no means a chef or even cook. Just, metal and glass, ugh
I knew what that first one was right away, I recognized it because I saw it a few months ago! I was at the local deli in my little town on the west coast of Canada, where I like to get their recommendations of what cheeses to try. They were trying to describe this gadget, when another customer heard them, got very excited, ran out to his car where he for some reason had this cheese and this gadget (I guess he carries it around with him wherever he goes?) and he brought it in and made some cheese curls for us all to try right there! It was such a random experience, seeing it again here made me smile.
The cheese curler is following you
As a Vancouver Islander, I'm very curious where this inspiring cheese shop is!!
That was very generous of the customer! ❤
What a great story! I love random stuff like that. First time today I have seen one but I will know what it is now!
Omg. The only thing I can think is that he had just bought it earlier on that shopping trip.
Those scales look perfect for weighing my cats. Big enough for them to sit on, go up to 15kg, not just 2kg like most kitchen scales I've had...
I actually had the same thought... it would give a better measurement to adjust food.
You can also often use a scale meant for babies, they are also much bigger. Otherwise, I just grab my cat, weigh mysel, then weigh myself separately. Accurate to about 100 which is accurate enough for most cats.
That cookie safe would make a fun sabotage during a cooking competition. Lock up an ingredient, their utensils, or whatever for a period of time.
Diabolical!
I like the Kush and Barry duo. We need more of them together.
The big scales would be useful for dough weighing and splitting, mainly when using a plastic dough scraper to split the dough. But I'm with Kush, steel knives on glass or stone is horrifying.
I have a small kitchen scale with a “detachable” read out specifically for oversized pots/bowls. I bet most digital scales have that feature but people don’t know about it.
@@lamebear1000 Not most. I had to shop around for one that did but they are out there.
Just do not buy that glass cutting board/scale thing.
Even for saving space the amount saved by not having a couple of plastic and/or wooden chopping boards is minimal.
@@bunnywarren And you would have to find somewhere to store those *enormous* scales! From experience, these kinds of digital scales are best stored flat and shouldn't have pressure applied to them (e.g. storing things on top). A couple of chopping boards can be slid down the side of a cupboard or drawer - I've no idea where I'd put one of these!
When the Ebbers away, the Normals and Food Team will play 😂
Kush is a great addition to the on-screen team. And while we're at it, kudos to the off-screen teams as well. This channel produces great content.
Barry petting Kush like he is a scary pet of some sort 😂😂
10s in and I'm already guffawing 😂
As a Swiss I recognized the first item immediately and I used to have one but I don't usually consume that cheese enough to keep it so I gave it back to my parents xD That said, in supermarkets here you can find shaved rosettes of the cheese prepackaged and they're super delish so there's really no need to get one :D
As for the glass chopping board/scale I'm so so so glad other people find the glass surface horrible to chop on too - my mom loves those for some reason and it's always so uncomfortable using those at her place xD
Love seeing Kush in more videos! Will always love Ben as the Sorted chef but I feel like the dynamic with two chefs and three normals balances it out more
I'm really loving the fact Kush is in more of the videos lately! ❤
We all do! 🥰
I love that Kush brings the pessimism that is absolutely needed
I love seeing Mike eat cheese. Not in a weird way.
Same!! For me it's like a growth arc of your favorite character in a book.
I just love seeing Mike lol
Love the interaction between Barry and Kush! 🙂
Kush is such a great addition. Has all the knowledge you could want but he’s got that dry humour
Just in case anyone has the problem Barry mentioned of not being able to see the weight on a samll scale when weighing with a largeish container. Get a bowl, turn it upside down and set the large container on top to weigh. It provides the space you need to see the weight.
Hold up, Kush has worked in a Michelin star restaurant? Definitely wanna hear more about that. Maybe go over some of the things they'd do there that you would never do at home
Yep, Le Manoir actually has 2 stars. It’s one of the best restaurants in Europe, with Raymond Blanc as the chef patron.
The BOSKA Cheese Curler Amigo can also be used for curling cold butter, though I use a special curved knife (bigoudi à beurre) for doing it presentation wise. But then I'm not doing huge amounts at a time.
The Duramitt can also be used for for prepping large amounts of veg with papery skins like new potatoes, carrots...etc.
Salter should know better. I'm with Kush on glass chopping boards, knife killers. I have some very nice knives & enjoy sharpening them well. Would never go near these scales with them. A relative gave me a glass chopping board when they first came out. I was going to toss it, but I have found a use for it. As its so shiny, anything that needs suction to stay in place, like some graters, blenders or mandolins are rock solid on it. So if the person that gifted it ever visits I still have the gift. I don't even like plastic chopping boards. As they age & get used bacteria can build up in the micro knife groves & they can be hard to clean. Certain wooden boards actually kill bacteria naturally, but it's still a good idea to clean them properly. As well as washing I regularly scrub them with course salt & lemon juice & go over with a scraper regularly.
Cant get enough of these kitchen gadgets videos
I just did the oatmeal “pancakes” someone suggested way back during black friday livestream.
Add agg to your leftover oatmeal and fry and they were absolutelly amazing 🍽
So glad you enjoyed them!
The Kush/Baz/Mike dynamic in this video is great. A fun trio!
I made one of those mits about 15 years ago in University but it was more like glove and each finger and a different sponge/surface for different uses.
In the spirit of the late great Bob Barker, I'm loving the $25.01 from Baz!
hahaha the look on Kush's face when that sponge flip landed in a bowl was priceless hahahaha
You guys should review the Scrub Mommy from Scrub Daddy. I know it just seems like a gimmicky sponge, but I've been thoroughly impressed with both how much better it cleans AND how much longer it lasts than a normal dual sided sponge. It also seems to scratch less than a normal scouring pad.
Whereas I hate all products from Scrub Daddy. I don't know what they make their sponges out of, but they feel sharp on the hand and they literally tear my psoriasis apart.
@@HaralHeisto That's very interesting. I can see why you would find the scouring side to feel sharp (at least when dry), but it surprisingly feels like it scratches dishes less to me.
Then again, the Scrub Mommy sponge is the only one I've used, and not any of their other products.
I just had a fantastic idea come to me about that timed lock box for a cooking challenge! Choose ingredients that have to be used but are not accessible for a certain period of time, I'm not 100% certain how it would work but it could be sort of a 'chopped' style thing where all the normals are given a chance to make a dish but they have to include the 'mystery' ingredient that unlocks after X time. Creativity badge maybe? I wanted to say this before I forgot!
I was hoping for a shot in which Barry would get his pods back in a studio with the lights off and everyone have already left the building.
The Kitchen Safe could be a good aid in giving an older child some independence in a task like taking medicine daily. It would allow for it to be kept in a more accessible location, but still be (reasonably) safe outside of a specific period. When they first showed it I thought it was a silly product, but as a tool beyond the kitchen, it actually has some useful applications.
I think for that purpose you could create a much better product: a series of small compartments for each dose of medication; an independent timer on each compartment that you can set to a specific time (i.e. 6pm, rather than 10 hours from now); some sort of alarm or notification, maybe paired with a smartphone or tablet.
@@hannahk1306I think there already is a device like this. I've gotten YT ads
some alternate uses for a couple gadgets: The Timer tub could be used for like marinades as you can put how long on the tub rather than having to remember or set an alarm on your phone. The scales would be useful for anyone weighing a large amount for instance any kind of batch cooking, home cooking/baking business etc that requires hefty weights which a smaller one cant handle easily, totally agree its a useless chopping board but its a great scale for specific circumstances like barry shows with the cast iron pan.
Would like to see you review the "Microplane Spice Mill Black for Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Tonka beans". Its a rotary hand grinder for large spices like nutmeg & so on. It has storage inside to keep spices fresh. You can adjust the coarseness manually. I like it as I use a lot of nutmeg, but hate grating my fingertips off. This is much faster & does a better job.
as soon as I saw Kush I knew this episode would be brilliant, Kush is crazy and I love it!
Im with Kush on the glass chopping boards. That sounded so terrible with headphones on
Ouch!
You guys are the best! My days are always better with your videos lifting my spirits! Longtime fan! Your team dynamic is such a joy to watch! Your joliness always puts a smile on my face! Always look forward to more of your amazing content! I’m so proud to be a member of this community! You're all Truly awesome!
You're the best!
@@SortedFoodright back at ya🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
I doubt that could be anymore English if you tried. A polite off
seriously loving Kushs' appearances in the videos...and his rather on point feedback
16:23 The handshake along with them just looking into each other's eye is hilarious!
“Everything’s a competition”. 😂🤣😂🤣👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Great quote from Kush.
You two are great together! Love this duo.
My husband has the K-Safe! He uses it for his phone (and also computer mouse occasionally). Has been somewhat life changing for him. Probably should use it myself, too tbh😂
In southern germany (and switzerland, i guess) you can buy that monks-head-cheese in every supermarket and a lot of people have that shaving-tool at home, but you can also buy the cheese pre-cut at a lot of supermarkets
The stare when cutting the garlic , perfect --> 14:40
We've always had one of those cheese curlers at home growing up! Tête de moine is my absolute favourite cheese ever 😍😍 but they do also sell pre-curled packages to the cheese in the supermarket in case you don't own a curler!
Does the curler come with a lid though? Or do you take the cheese off every time? Or do you put the whole thing in the fridge?😅
@@glockenrein I'm sure there are some that come with lids! But we usually but some cling film over the cheese and put the whole thing in the fringe or on the window sill in winter. Taking the cheese off every time is too much effort 😅
@@melaniehochuli4728 okay that makes sense, thank you! 😄 Might have to buy some pre packages one try.
You can hear Mike cracking up as he reads about the Duramitt 😆
Kush comment on glass chopping boards made me think of a local Dutch chef who always said the only good thing you could do with them was build a little aquarium 😂
I am absolutely in love with Kush! No reason, just his vibe is amazing
Love Kush’s energy. He’s such a great addition to the onscreen team. 😊
3:41 I literally just choked on my drink laughing at that photo. High 5 to whomever photoshopped that masterpiece 😂
Photoshop?
Jaibbers Ebbford can't hurt you, Jaibbers Ebbford isn't real...
Kush was such a good addition to the team. Just the right spice to balance the dish. I love all of the original boys including James, and Kush kinda feels like he has always been there.
Having used glass cutting board for more than 20 years and i don't want anything else, i love them
Great seeing Kush on camera, brings a fun but chaotic energy on screen! 😂
A better way of solving the scale problem is to have a scale where the display is on an arm or cord that can be pulled out and placed where it remains visible. Or, like hook it up to an app, but I'd prefer a more analog solution.
OXO has a scale with a pull-out display for exactly that purpose. It works well.
Kush is just so much crazy fun, love the crazy madman! Good to see more of him.
I laughed outloud at these chopping scales. That clinking - omg, thank you, Kush.
I recently bought a glass chopping board (a set of three was the cheapest), but it's not for cooking, it's for some crafts where at times I need and acrylic glass board because my glue doesn't stick to it, and other times glass board for a precise sliding cut.
You can also use it for chocolate shavings. Great video once again lads thank you
Test the bay leaf theory , bc I've personally tested it and there's a huge difference between using bay leaves and not. It's def not the main flavor, but you really notice when it's not there.
Just in case you didn't see it they did test it and made a video and agree it does make a difference.
This episode was the Gadget Discourse we were waiting for. MORE BARRY-CHEF KUSH CHAOS PLZ
omg the face of total disdain at 14:44 is priceless
I love seeing Kush in these videos. Hopefully we can see him a bit more often!
Kush is such a good dynamic in the boys. Have loved seeing him in more and more!
You gotta appreciate the raw spite it took for Kush to chop the onion and gralic on that thing. You could see him visibly cringing, but he HAD to prove his point.
It's so funny to me that the girolle is in a gadgets video. as a swiss person, growing up it was just normal to have a girolle in the house. Like having a wine opener, a peeler or a garlic press.
I also had to smile when Baz said "cause it's sold in the posh shops" - you can get it in every supermarket/groccery store here
Either someone on the team is great with Photoshop or Ben grew a beard without any of us noticing. 👀
Kid: Can I have a cookie? Parent: In 30 minutes. 30 minutes later: pops open and kid empties it out. That's what I would have done. Very dumb invention.
Though to stop mindless snacking on high-sugar treats, it’s enough for that. Just makes the process of an adult grabbing “just one more” snack inconvenient enough that they won’t automatically do it. So a weight control measure for 80% of the population.
@@Tang-qi6zw Someone who can't control themselves when it comes to snacking on crap will not be deterred by this invention, nor will children who don't know any better. People must learn self control, not buy useless gadgets. Don't buy the cookies to put in it, problem solved and money not spent.
@@d.d.mac.3773IF that alone worked, 80% of the country wouldn't be obese. Willpower is so temporary. Instead, harvest it for inconvenience. Because inconvenience is the only way to change habits. Notice how sometimes you drive the usual route, which is the wrong way because you were going somewhere else? If you don't track your food, how much can you remember what you eat? You don't even look at your hands or keyboard when typing. Most of what people do is automatic. Based entirely on patterns and convenience. So even if you buy the stupid cookies out of habit, the case CAN help change the habit because you can adjust when actively thinking.
@@Tang-qi6zw Well, it seems timed cookie dispensers are obviously not working either, are they? Either obese people don't have the willpower to use them or even buy them. You can also get into the habit of eating certain amounts and at certain times, but I don't see them doing that either. A cookie dispenser will not solve the obesity problem. They are a waste of money. Don't buy your kid or yourself cookies, and then you don't have to track how many you've eaten, problem solved .
Barry's love 2 hate journey with the washing mitt is great.
I'm giving you ALL the likes! What a new dynamic duo 🎉
Kush is a riot... that earpods move was so smooth...
It's nice to see Chef Kush more on camera, he is incredibly talented chef and delight to watch!
The glass chopping board scale thing gives me the willies. The idea of it being space saving is maximum irony.
The cheese curler is also regularly found at Dutch secondhand stores for cheap since it was in a lot of company Christmas gift boxes a couple of years ago 😂
Boska cheese curler amigo is giving "Mojo dojo casa house" energy 😂
We definitely need Kush in more review videos, imagine Kush and Ben together, and even James when he's back!
As a cheese lover, I'm always happy to see Mike eat some cheese and genuinely enjoy it :D
Thanks, Kush, for validating my hatred for glass cutting boards. I hadn't thought about them dulling my knife, I just couldn't stand the noise.
3:40 Mountain Man Ebbers would be a hoot emerging from a cave in Scotland. 😂
Wonderful.! I'm with Kush, "everything IS a competition"!
Kush's little flick of the sponge into the bowl at 00:08:04 is too underrated for me!
Kush and Baz are so funny together!!!
