i'm not british, and the idea of 'fresh custard' casually sold in the supermarket is beyond me! lucky you! next series idea: strange food item recipes. i saw a bag of dried tiny fish in the spice isle in my local supermarket and on a whim got them because they were ridiculously cheap, but i've never been across a recipe that asked for them and now they're just sitting in my cupboard, leering at me with their tiny dead eyes. so how about you try your hand at some of the food items we see a lot in the supermarket but never pick up because we don't quite know what it's used for?

[@JessRushworth]

they sound like whitebait! the best thing to do with whitebait is deep fry them and serve with mayonnaise and chips! you just crunch them whole! yum yum

[@MyfiDilston]

Jess Rushworth pretty sure they did a recipe with tiny fish, can't remember if it was whitebait, but it was at ben's house i think!

[@nelle541]

I vote yes for that :)

[@charlnylamaeque8975]

hi! you can fry them and eat it as is or dip them in vinegar! i should know 'cause im proud to say that im from the Philippines :)

[@sankalpa523]

Can you believe that there are still people who watch all the videos but not subscribing?????come on world it's FREE and no harm to anyone at all... after all i cannot believe people are not subscribing to a wonderful and super helpful channel like this...

[@graceschammer6384]

Can you do a summer Christmas recipe for all your southern hemisphere friends:) for example seafood, or something with stone fruit?

[@Bee-ol1xr]

yeah, I'm from Brazil and it's insanely hot in this hell of a place... lucky them, I could live in winter weather for life

[@michaelpesavento8268]

Hi,I've don a braised Monk fish with plumbs,apricots and peach. First I lightly brown the fish in olive oil and butter then I remove it and brown the cut up slices of the fruit and de-glaze the pan with a splash of white wine then put the fish back and the whole thing in a hot oven to finish. A squeeze of fresh lemon and it's dinner!

[@MWA35]

I made a St. Germain trifle the other year, very summery flavor, went down a treat. I'm going to be bringing an asparagus tart this year.

[@themusicmoonkey]

Seriously guys can you do a t-shirt/apron/utensil/crockery set with a sprig of mint logo?!?! x I would soooo buy! x

[@jstMichael]

I am a sucker for crumbles! The crispy biscuit crumble combined with the soft fruitiness of the fruit base is just beautiful. When you mix in vanilla custard with this, it just turns into a gift sent from heaven.

[@lauracolleen]

Definitely gonna give the pear cranberry crumble a go at Christmas Eve. It looks amazing!!

[@TheDylanriley]

Have you guys ever thought about making a cafe or deli or something of that sort? Maybe even a restaurant? I think it'd be a huge success! ...and I can't express how much I love your channel and all of your different personality's and how you manage to make gob-smacking-ly yummy food mixed with moments of genius jokes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@OllieOllieee]

Barry makes me melt a little he is so adorable :) this is giving me ideas for Christmas and its only August

[@sheella113]

Love Jamie's cardigan with snowman! So lovely! Love the recipes too as always! SORTED is the best

[@roberthanlen6036]

In New Zealand our Christmas is at the start of summer so we go for salads and barbecue a lot but I am SO determined to do a traditional mid-winter Christmas in July! I love your Christmas recipes - a modern take on trad fare.

[@jaxnibbles9552]

The triumphant return of the sprig of mint on everything! Not going to lie, more excited to see that than Barry.

[@TalmaesWorld]

Christmas is my favourite time of the year to watch you guys! I watch the rest of the year too, but you know.

[@Imjustlikeyou12]

Ben and Jaime are just being adorable with each other!

[@benjivaudeville]

I made the Mince Pie Ice Cream for dessert (still have a little in the freezer now) and am definitely going to next year planning out different ice creams I want to make!

[@TamrineRichards]

haha you guys are brilliant. I absolutely love the banter between you guys. and your recipes are great!

[@mnascimbeni]

At some point in the first 50 seconds of the video, Barry and Ben share a look and it looks super cute. Barry starts laughing and it just made my day.

[@AmbroseReed]

You guys always make really beautiful desserts. I want them all!

[@howtoSmile101]

Another really good hack is to add oats to the top of the crumble. Not only is it healthier, but the uncooked oats on the top become crispy, and the ones below soak up the fruit juices and become super yum!

[@jangu677]

You guys let me fall in love with every little food ingredients in Tesco!

[@feefee88]

guys im from Australia and for Christmas desert here a big winner is pavlova.... soooo good and so easy

[@isiholliday3051]

I would have left the pastry out of the icecream and served it in the pastry cases, quick simple and looks delicious. Can't wait to get cooking 😊

[@ainekirwan5342]

This is so incredibly bitter sweet, I love watching these videos but it's hard when all I have to eat is cereal! I'll be sure to give the crumble a go when I get home next week, looks yummy!

[@100daysmic9]

The pear ginger crumble sounds the best. I make a pear/coconut milk yogurt cheese cake with candied ginger. I use ginger snaps for the crust.

[@katie4623]

That minced pie ice cream recipe us just genius. I've never seen such a simple ice cream recipe before !

[@tehillahmcxxxx234]

Yummy I love pudding!💕

[@julieipsen9064]

Risalamande Danish Christmas dessert, it's amazing. Can't stop eating it! You guys should try it!

[@crimsonpanthers]

Definitely have to put you guys in a shout out video on KZbin and Facebook. I love y'all! Much love from New Jersey, Jackie XOXO

[@5131justin]

Mike's "my crumble" part was so cute :) Happy birthday!!

[@Hazz6996]

amazing !

[@foodishbeauty]

Mmm trifle the ultimate Christmas dessert! Was just thinking about filming a cheats dessert for the final stressful days running up to Christmas, and you guys have beat me to it ;) Great ideas!

[@BeautifulGoodbye13]

These all look good, but your recipe for a baileys yule log has become a favourite at our house and I'm afraid if I'd make anything else I'd have an uprising on my hands.

[@SortedFood]

eve van kaathoven Haha well it's good to hear that it goes down well! The good thing about Christmas is that it's acceptable to have more than one dessert! ;)

[@003andrey]

These dessert receipts are amazing~~

[@mufflonplaylist]

I have to admit I didn't know, mincemeat and minced meat are NOT the same. Thankfully... But was I the only one who flashed back to Rachel's minced meat trifle? :D

[@LovefromIsabel]

Merry Christmas to everyone at Sorted Food! You guys honestly make me smile on my worst days and ravenous on my best! These all look phenomenal, though they're all very British - I'm not sure if I'll be able to get everything in my American supermarkets (e.g. minced pie, custard, etc.)! If I ever visit the UK you'll have to make them for me ;) I can't wait to see more videos and I wish you all a very happy holidays!!

[@SortedFood]

LovefromIsabel Thanks! Merry Christmas to you too! :D Hopefully you can find some of these ingredients and substitute if you need to! :)

[@hatorigirl1202]

Last year I made Pannukakku for Christmas breakfast, and I think this year I'm going to try Finnish pinwheel looking holiday cookies I saw my Finnish cousin talking about last year. I think they had a fig or date jam in the middle? Trying Finnish dishes at the holidays makes me feel like I'm injecting part of myself into times spent with my fiancé ' s family with their very solidified holiday traditions. My family is scattered and it's hard to get together. I didn't grow up with a lot of Finnish culture, but my dad got a lot from his aunts and uncles, and I always felt like I missed out on that part of myself.

[@luna_london]

Hello guys...Love your video....you look very Christmasy :)

[@Spankypenguin1]

2:12 The scariest Christmas smile, like that uncle who isn't allowed to visit any more...

[@hopetotheworld]

Yum!!

[@angelafire94]

Wow, these looks really nice. Might try one out next week :D

[@Jess-rs8zm]

Definately going to give the mincepie ice cream a go this Christmas!

[@ferdaozdemir]

I am aware of your youtube channel for a short time and I really loved your videos. You became my favorite recipe channel in youtube already. I also like cooking very much and get lots of inspiration from you. PS.I am also wondering the other boys cooking without Ben :) ( I think they will be quite all right by the way ) A fan from Turkey....

[@SortedFood]

+Ferda Özdemir Sönmez Welcome! Glad you're enjoying the videos :)

[@samurdhiwarnakulasuriya2530]

Made the Trifle today... ^_^ sooooo good..... Wishes for a Happy New Year from Sri Lanka

[@ShaneCarrigan]

:) I would love to see a video of all you guys grocery shopping for the ingredients you're using LOL.

[@NuzhatJabeen]

I would really love your take on Christmas fruit cake and pannetone

[@1337gaia]

My favourite low-budget christmas dessert: Self-made potato noodles with sweetened ground poppy seeds in butter...and stewed plums with winter spices.

[@Vyndil]

For Canadians it's gotta be a good homemade butter tart. I don't know if it's especially Christmasy, but it's the only time of the year we ever make them in my family.

[@mikescrazycomedy7362]

I first started to watch sorted after you appeared on Rhett and link good mythical morning. Goood show you do. I am from texas so keep up the good work

[@aaliyahs8596]

My boyfriend and I love your channel so decided to start from the very first video 😂

[@MCGraphics3D]

My Nan bought us back a fresh panettone from Italy and it was AMAZING!

[@ShaneCarrigan]

By the way the flavor decisions for these recipes are stellar! Just amazing. These may give the white chocolate blueberry cheescake a run for its money.

[@melissaheissel4414]

Four handsome lads taking over my screen again, and with three amazing puddings, nobody is complaining :) Merry Christmas guys

[@yapeva4437]

can we all take a moment and talk about how adorable Jamie's christmas sweater is? *_*

[@madiyhaghafoor992]

Yule log please! It's my favourite desert.

[@NadaQamber]

Argh, your videos always get me so hungry.

[@moniquethenko4638]

happy birthday mike!

[@jeremieanne01]

The mint is back!

[@sydneyca]

Totally called the liquor recipe yesterday!

[@thePirateQueenKt]

I'm hoping for a video on Christmas morning breakfast ideas :)

[@galaxydefender95]

more like 'How many puddings can we squeeze Tesco's Finest Vanilla Custard into...' They all looked very yummy though ;P

[@Beachgirl1950]

My favorite sweet treat after Christmas Dinner is either pecan pie or pecan chocolate fudge. All of the desserts on this video sound awfully yummy. Enjoyed. :)

[@patmaurer8541]

Our traditional Christmas cake is sponge made with hazelnut flour, layers split and drizzled with orange juice, filled with chocolate mousse and raspberries, then enrobed in dark chocolate ganache. Despite all the rich ingredients, it's not heavy. You may even have room for a second slice 😉

[@TheFatDuck1234]

the mint leaf shall NOT be optional! mint leaves are to ben as cardigans are to mike. without it, you're left with an unbeautified lump.

[@feitocomfruta]

I have yet to make it, but you lads' Bouche de Noel still looks like the best Christmas dessert. Aside from that, I was watching a special here called "Holiday Baking Championships" and they did sooooooo many different things from Hot chocolate and peppermint baked puddings to Yule Logs of all sorts. They even made a very good point to have a round dedicated to the other important meal you lads missed: CHRISTMAS BREAKFAST. Really, how could you guys have missed Christmas Breakfast, with sweet rolls, waffles, pancakes, and so on?

[@aurorapoetrig]

i just realised that u posted this on my birthday :) yay xDDD love u guys

[@TheDramakiddo]

I love how Barry just laughs to himself all the time, and he just has his own little moments there for a sec...

[@viktoriaringsmose2726]

You should really check out the Danish dessert ris'a'lamande it's amazingly delicious!! 😁😊❤️

[@mohamadkh6105]

I have been watching you guys for long time, thought this is my first comment! And I would love it if you could share a vegan recipes from time to time (I tried some of your recipes with vegan ingredients before and it went really well) Soo yeah! Vegan dish/dessert would be cool!

[@mmmmsashimi]

Yay the sprig of mint came back. #christmassmiracle

[@merrynanderson7945]

The classic Kiwi Christmas summer dessert - Pavlova!

[@didi78350]

my favorite is the cumble and mike! they are "à tomber par terre!"

[@tonyafitzpatrick840]

You guys should do a Helping Hands video! That's where one person talks and another person acts as their arms :)

[@aliceminchin3351]

it might seem weird to you in England but the perfect Christmas dessert is definitely a good old pavlova! haven't seen you guys attempt one lately, but its a great Summer food in Australia :)

[@iTwistedVisionJC]

Massive tip with crumble - substitute some flour for rolled oats! You get a beautiful nuttiness to the top. Another possibility is ground almonds - delish.

[@AFriendlyWeirdo]

From what I understand the different between a crumble and a crisp is oats. If they added oatmeal it would be a fruit crisp.

[@gloria8971]

just a suggestion i had in mind for the mince pie ice cream. you can put the ice cream into the leftover pie crust instead of crushing the pie on top of the ice cream. i don't know how it would taste but i think it would look cool

[@RJ_Cryptid]

I'm making the crumble for my family's Christmas dessert this year :-) hope it turns out looking (and tasting) as good as yours!

[@SortedFood]

Robertta Ragan I'm sure it will! Enjoy it and send us a pic when you've cooked it! Merry Christmas

[@RJ_Cryptid]

SORTED Food it was a definite hit! I'd send you a picture but it was eaten to quickly! They all scarfed it down like it was the main course lol

[@joannegray5138]

My mother usually smashes up a few Daim bars into random splinters and uses them to top her Christmas trifles.

[@SatanHarmonia]

Ben answered the fruit to crumble ratio question like a good politician: dodging the question but not really dodging the question.

[@Richarizard92]

The food looks good and all, but I think Barry's face is the most delicious looking thing in this video.

[@LiqdPT]

You know what I do for Christmas dessert every year? Cranachan.

[@andysbg77]

Ginger Bread Mousse and Orange Panna Cotta!

[@ggboy1208]

Christmas pudding ice cream is a family favourite with my family. Considering that it is celebrated in summer down under

[@Totallyrandomthatsme]

heeeeeelllllllllooooooooooo people

[@Totallyrandomthatsme]

i'm sorry it's just I rarely come across a ragican elsewhere :)

[@ggboy1208]

Totallyrandomthatsme Wat

[@realtop10s58]

Can you do a episode for '5 deserts with less than 5 ingredients each' . I hate it when I don't have enough ingredients to make the spectacular deserts you guys do.

[@lilaylou]

tip to have a rustic crumble : put the biscuits in a ziploc bag, bash them with a rolling pin, then you get uneven chunks :)

[@jamiefreeman1682]

Pear and ginger nut crumble☺

[@TomFrantzis]

There was no sprig of mint on that trifle :(

[@mufflonplaylist]

OH NO! That must mean the world is coming to an end... :O ;)

[@sarahr.6304]

could serve the ice cream IN the pastry cases?

[@croaklikeatoad4384]

Or use the lids to make ice-cream sandwiches.

[@PresumablyTunes]

The crumble sounds delicious. I'm not a fan of mulled wine or mince pies so they're out of the question for me. But that crumble D: I NEED SOME!

[@serenakristin5761]

I absolutely love all the recipes you post but I'll hardly make any of them ever(I'm vegan) but I just enjoy watching the videos so much I can't get myself to unsubscribe because all of you are fantastic

[@janelleligarde177]

Definitely crumble

[@dr33ds]

Can't help but noticing Ben & Barry are staring at each other at 0:25 - 0:27! *cue for fridgecam jingle*

[@sarahpertiwi4299]

What about the drinks? :D The recipes on the previous video and this one are amazing, but any ideas on Christmas theme drinks? ;)

[@BeardedDanishViking]

Rustic is just another culinary term for "I could not give a single fuck" xD

[@2010bethanys]

I would love to make the crumble for xmas :) can you make it the night before ???

[@drtns]

You guys should do Figgy Pudding!

[@Walter5850]

When are you guys going to do some french crepes recipes ? :D

[@banibadwal7995]
