@@SortedFood 4:53 - I have to say, that cut looks comfortable, and though I'm not trained more than having learned at my Grandma's knee and from my parents, I vastly prefer wearing one when deep frying (which we do a lot) as it doesn't even feel warm if it pops onto the jacket, is that a new style? I got in the habit at a restaurant where I fried sopapillas all night 4 nights a week and my boss saw I was getting little blisters from the pops so he had me wear one, and while warm in a hot kitchen, they are very nice.

Videos like this imo should be the bread and butter of the channel. Their most successful and engaging videos are the battles and challenges because there’s more energy to observe but these videos are much more educational because the focus is on Ebbers instructing and demonstrating different things, there is knowledge and skills passed on in the battles and challenges because there’s always something to learn from what’s happening but it’s not the main focus of the video so isn’t always as evident or memorable

Do love making sauces. The first thing my father taught me to mak when I was wee was a bread sauce. Studding the onion with cloves, bruising the bay leaves it was all like magical alchemy to me. Have found that if you want to make the white sauce taste "fluffier", smoother and lighter, once its made, pop in a stick blender or pop it in a food processor. Also makes a little sauce go further. Kimchi is nice, but a dollop of andou or some chorizo is good. Though my fave Mac & Cheese is a sauce with softened onions, wholegrain mustard, bacon and some peas, with halved boiled eggs hiding in the bottom of the dish. Loving the Friday extras, I know there's no mucking about like you usually do, but its always great to see a chef enjoying the creation process. Would be great if you could do a series on sauces, so many out there, mainly stemming from the mother sauces. Made a lovely fish served with a soubise last week, was so tasty.

Lately I've been on a kick of watching old Sorted videos, and suddenly was very confused about why I didn't remember this one. As it turns out accidentally clicked on the newest one without knowing.

Love this series! I’m a huge fan of everything else too- the pass it ons, the battles, etc., but these are SO easy to understand and replicate at home. I’d say I’m an experienced home cook, not a beginner, but I’m still learning something new every Friday. PLEASE keep these going!

I really like the ending of these videos - the out of focus, calm discussion while tasting. It's a nice wind-down from the video. Please do that more often. (But not during Pass It On because we need to take in the fail).

My kids are now 6 months away from turning 40 and when they were toddlers LOVED Mac & cheese. I started using half milk, half stock way back then and it yields a lighter sauce, which you can boost with more cheese, which (as Ben said if you change the sauce/cheese ratio, makes it thick) doesn't make it thick. Also, we LOVE cauli cheese! I actually poach a whole cauliflower in about 5cm milk, and a little stock or water if necessary, and use the poaching liquid to make the sauce and add Hot English Mustard to the sauce. To be honest, caulie mac & cheese is wonderful, but possibly not everyone's choice. (I wrote this before seeing the end of the video, where Ben extolls the benefits of the two. I agree wholeheartedly!!) If I'm making mac & cheese, that's all I'm making. If I'm making cauli cheese, that's all I'm making. Both can be portioned for separate meals and chilled or frozen. I am DEFINITELY trying the kimchi mac & cheese though! Sounds AMAZING

White sauce, made exactly this way, and then turned into cheese sauce or tuna mornay or whatever was one of the first things my mum taught me to cook, and it was one of the first things my daughter learned, too. It's just so versatile.

I think I cook this at to high a temp cause once I add the cheese it feels really grainy, but that's just a guess.
@rachelgriffin9645
@rachelgriffin9645 4 жыл бұрын
That's exactly right if it's too hot it causes your sauce to brake and gives you that grainy texture.
