Those vessi chelseas look great!!! I wonder if they're available in Germany

[@TheMimiSard]

Call it a "Green Pea Episode" and fill it with jokes on the word "Pea". Because, that would be fun.

[@John_P._Buryiak]

Hi Beryl, I've made this comment on your videos before but I can only guess you didn't see them. The reason your pot tips over when empty as it does at 0:51 is because you put it on the burner with the handle between the arms of the grate. If you place the pot on the stove top with the handle lined up over one of the grate arms it will not tip over. Alternatively you could fill the pot before placing it on the stove and then the weight of the contents should stop it from tipping regardless of where you position the handle relative to the grate arms. Hope that helps! John

[@John_P._Buryiak]

That's funny that at 3:58 you speak to the tipping and various bits of advice given by the audience. I guarantee that if you line the handle up with one of the grate arms it will not tip. Yes, adding stuff to the pot will help but where the handle is pointing is the key.

[@bettylocks2.0]

If you line the handle of the pot up with the bars of the stove trivet, it stops it tipping. I have the same issue with pretty much all my smaller pots on my gas hob/stove, and it is because there is nothing supporting the weight of the handle. 😊

[@artistlovepeace]

Absolutely one of the best channels on the internet. Wow! So much educational, multicultural and wonderful content. This is the life and entertainment for me. Big Beryl Shereshewsky fan.

[@KilanEatsandDrinks]

I'm Indonesian, so yes, I'm here for the Indomie, but I'm most interested in the cold dipping noodles because I love cold soba and I think this type of noodles would work really well in the hot and humid climate of Indonesia.

[@kikisakamoto]

i think its better with indomie goreng noodles texture, dont use the indomie goreng aceh noodle texture

[@KilanEatsandDrinks]

@@kikisakamoto I was thinking shirataki noodles 😁

[@kasiapek7575]

One thing that i learnd from this chanel is that i probably would like arab, turkish and persian cuisine. Its always look so nice and fresh and full od vegetables:)

[@Pandeyziipandit]

The most vegetables were in maggie tho💀😂

[@mostlyvoid.partiallystars]

Ashni got that foodtube influencer vibe. 🎉 I would watch your channel girl. ❤

[@alexlucasxvx]

If you watched this and you happen to be Lebanese, know that we love you and we‘ll always stand up for you. ❤️

[@phyllisreinking4208]

That tippy pan needs to be pitched out - mainly because of the unsafe scratched nonstick coating.

[@alc5440]

If you want to use up some of that ube extract I'd recommend making an ube cheesecake. They are absolutely incredible and have the most striking, beautiful purple color. The channel Cooking with Kurt has a great recipe if you need one.

[@there4im839]

I’m so glad you discovered both Nongshim noodles (my favorite texture) AND vegetarian mushroom oyster sauce. Try using that sauce in EVERYTHING. You won’t be disappointed.

[@Lawomenshoops]

A couple days ago. I made the only vegan instant noodle, the soy sauce Top Ramen! I added the flavor packet, fresh spinach, and some leftover Chuck vegan pulled pork!

[@colleenuchiyama4916]

I use coffee and espresso in many dishes. If you don’t overdo it, it can bring a super deep bottom note to your dish. I also put it in every chocolate dessert I make for the exact same reason. Really amps milk chocolate.

[@Olivia_Dsa]

Are we not gonna talk about how perfectly that noodle fit in the pot in the first recipe?

[@ShuklaAayushi]

I am here for all the dishes in this one. Definitely trying the cold noodles and the wai wai chat one first. Fatima's view on the traditional dishes with a twist was so nice. Love all of these 💖

[@RWCLtd3]

Beryl! I save so many of the recipes to Pinterest. I loooove instant noodles. I don't have an Instagram account, but I live on Long Island so it would be easy to send some noodles. Ilove how inclusive you are. In today's world, it's so important to not be afraid of other cultures - and what better way than to do it through food. Thank you! - Rachel

[@phetheringtonnz]

Thanks Beryl. Are we all else eating 2-min noodles more often now, with the cost of living crisis?

[@BigBadWolframio]

I LOVE the Soon noodles ❤ One of the best vegetarian options out there. And that mushroom oyster sauce is great too.

[@rosejustice]

New challenge! Guess how long it will take Beryl to go through the block of cheese? A) 6 months B) 1 year C) It’s already gone. ❤️🥰❤️ Love you Beryl!

[@hi_im_angie]

Beryl, I've lived my whole life (50 yrs) without an icemaker, and I finally have one, and it is AMAZING. I'm so grateful for it, every day. 😂

[@gacchan]

I looooove cold dipping soba, so happy you tried it. I definitely want to try Fatima's dish.

[@aberoxas7515]

The dipping noodles hack is based in abura soba and also called tsukumen. Some of the ramen shop in NYC serves tsukument and it's awesome. One of my favorite ramen when I lived in Japan

[@missglittertron]

In Australia we pronounce it Maji with a soft g, & call the 2 minute noodles. It's one of the first things I learned to cook. I love adding soy sauce, chilli, Maggi sauce, peanut butter, spinach or bok choy, tofu, bean sprouts, lime juice, & broccoli. It makes it a proper meal, & is delicious

[@jacksonokane4176]

Same pronunciation for aussies and kiwis😂 maggi

[@PurrPearl]

Originally, Wai Wai is Thai brand, invented in 1972. The founder of Nepali Wai Wai came to meet the executive, learned the recipe and production processes, and founded Wai Wai in Nepal in 1984.

[@PurrPearl]

Fun fact: Wai Wai in Thai means quick as it is quick and easy to make.

[@Pandeyziipandit]

Love wai wai more then maggie❤😂

[@naveena4879]

what a cute lamp the french lady has!

[@lisam9233]

Another great episode! Can’t wait to try the cold dipping noodles recipe…that looks yum! And an “episode featuring garden peas” would be fabulous 🫛

[@CarlGorn]

Since You Asked: I don't have an automatic ice maker in my freezer, but what I do is use food storage cups to make giant ice cubes. Makes every drink feel like you're at a fancy bar. Even Kool-Aid. 😀

[@angelameredith4132]

Oh I loved this video, I live in a very artsy small city, AND I’m sure grocery stores here would not have some of those sauces and noddles. So I guess will need to order online. These recipes seem simple to make, taste very good. So online I go …. Love you Beryl !!!! You are a joy to many of us

[@2mangamonsters]

Yum! Eating Mi Goreng noodles while I'm watching but I have a few more instant noodles brands to try now!

[@neilbertulfo7700]

Beryl, for your pot not to tip over, align the handle to one of the four corners or the metal support of your burner. It distributes the weight better.

[@Bunke09]

I like my Shin noodles with a soft boiled egg and some fried peppers of any kind with onions and some grated ginger. I cook my noodles with barely enough liquid so there isn't broth left over and the noodles stay very firm and I end up with just noodles covered in yoke from the softboiled egg. I always double up the dried vegggie packets as well because my son doesn't like his noodles with the dry veggies!! Lucky me.

[@riturajsinghbais]

Also, WAI WAI is the best. As an Indian I can confirm it. I will always choose Wai Wai over maggi Or Top ramen because Wai Wais taste profile is more Indian like since it was made for the Nepalese palate

[@cookbook800]

Just sat down to eat some instant noodles, and your video came up first on my feed………… I am not only eating instant noodles, but the SOON instant noodles in your first recipe! What are the chances of that?!? They are the BEST noodles ever with the best noodle texture! 🍜

[@jadedjhypsi]

The maggi version with veggies is how i always did my 🍜 and interestingly enough, I am from Oregon which is where the girl who helped her mom post this is from 😉

[@jo-b]

You are inspiring me so much to make like a male version of this. Been wanting to be a food vlogger for the longest time. 😊 Thank you and I love your videos. Plus your quirky character.

[@jengle1970]

Yeah, you are a menace to me with that Hot & Sweet. 😊 I have been trying to find it for a really long time, no stores near me, including asian, had it. Online it was running like $15 a bottle. But just last week I found a small Indian grocery store near me and they had it for a normal person price. This weekend, since I am in TX, I am going to try marinating some chicken leg quarters in it and putting them on the smoker. 😈 Now I wish you would do a what to buy at an Indian grocery store episode. I went for the Maggi and came home with bags of snacks - some were winners, a couple were NOT 😢 - sweets, and a bunch of cooking ideas.

[@mhariclare1]

For heavens sake Beryl! Retire that too small , no longer nonstick pot ….for all our sakes 😳😂🇨🇦❤️

[@lillithdv8]

Pssst Beryl, for you PEA episode there this gem of a dish: sweet peas and strawberry pie. So short crust base filled with crème-pâtissière infused with puréed peas (best choice is spring ones - frozen will do in a pinch) topped with glazed strawberries. Delicious

[@asdisskagen6487]

An episode focusing on garden peas would be awesome.

[@kareninalabama]

She could just focus on garden peas, or open it up to include snow peas, sugar snap peas, and field peas.

[@heahterranier6926]

Vegan Oyster Sauce with Japanese mayonnaise is the only sauce I’d ever need for pasta. Also rice. Also eggs. Virtually anything.

[@LeesaTamblyn]

Noodles are life ❤

[@barbaramiller349]

Fun episode. I’m not a big instant noodle fan, but I think a couple of these sound great. The cold one is very intriguing! ❤ Oh, I don’t have an ice maker. I really don’t want one. I do have a washer and dryer now and for many years I didn’t. It’s an absolute luxury!!

[@teridoster5840]

Shin Black are my absolute fave ramen! So yummy

[@friesencj1]

I want a counter top ice maker. It can be put anywhere that has an outlet (so not necessarily the kitchen - taking up precious space). They don’t require being plumbed in like a refrigerator. I can freeze filtered water. I don’t need to keep it stocked as I don’t need ice often, but when I do I don’t necessarily have freezer space to make ice for several ice trays. They produce a lot of ice quickly. Check this appliance out. BTW it’s time to retire that pot - forever chemicals are leaching into your food with those scratches. I know it’s hard to separate from things when they are the perfect size.

[@xXHarleyMaeMcAfeeXx]

I love the nongshim soon veggie ramen, I do it different though in Scotland. I slice spring onions, cook them in (vegan) flora butter and Korean chilli pepper flakes, then put in garlic powder and cook that, then place it in my bowl. Then I start cooking the vegetable flakes in the same pot I just used, then I’ll put in the soup powder, cook, then pour over the spring onions in my bowl, then cook the noodles in freshly boiled water, drain and put in to my soup, which I then put in a nice big teaspoon of chilli oil, and a little drizzle of toasted sesame oil. It’s delish!

[@conniesawyer5108]

New word of the day: autumnal...lol

[@martinkreuzer5450]

I am so amazed by Fatima's enthusiasm, understanding and involvement in what she has called a fusion cuisine - which I as kind a ignorant white western guy would not have spotted (levantine and Arab - are they are not the same... ?). Great dish, too. I also was amazed about how many locks her door has ... (no - just kidding... but you can see in one shot it is at least three...)

[@ChrissyCat87]

Here in Norway a refrigerator that makes ice cubes is not common. And they're super expensive! My whole life I'm just used to making my own, always have several ice cube trays in my freezer. 😊

[@MissDesdemona]

I really want to try the first and third dishes because I really love vegetables and always wanted to try vegan oyster sauce.

[@jeffjones4654]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Beryl is adorkable.

[@jennylawrence6135]

If it were me, I would change the instant noodle packets to the flags because one instant noodle brand can be created in many ways from many countries actually. And honestly these 5 countries are so creative in making instant noodles and look very deliciously divine.

[@yvettemor7282]

Thank you for your channel! From South Africa. Any chance of getting those noodles?

[@sasivardanreka9691]

@BerylShereshewsky A tip for your tipping pan problem, while placing it on your burner instead placing it so that the handle points in-between the four supports, place it right over the supports .i.e., the handle should be right over the 4 burner support rails. Hope this helps :)

[@ellsbells9943]

There is a restaurant in LA that makes Ube milkshakes and they are delicious!!!! You're welcome 😅

[@4433kurt]

I liked. Fatimas take on changing traditional recipes to suit where you might have grown up. I am culturally German but where I grew up in America some traditional German ingredients were unavailable to us so we due. No bratwurst then hor dogs would do. also, look in your freezer for a panel on one side of the box. underneath this there may be a connection for an icemaker, depending on the brand. love your channel!

[@biancaguaranyspindler4175]

In Brazil my mom always put mayonnaise left over beans and extra veggies like corn and peas and would scramble an egg on top (like egg drop soup) It kind of became a bean soup or like a pasta fagiole dish Italian Americans make lol

[@punchpineapple]

I have the same ice problem - anytime the freezer is too full, the ice cube trays get sacrificed and then I forget to freeze them again.

[@krisy-in-italy]

I just did this AGAIN earlier this week. I set the 4 ice trays in the sink next to my back porch freezer so I had room to put some ready made meals inside I had just finished. I could probably have squeezed the ice trays elsewhere but forgot about them till the following day. 😂

[@wendywarrelmann1743]

Had a fridge that could make ice, but just didn’t wanna. Had repair men come and go, and the little debutant of a fridge was like “no. Noooo. No thank you”

[@justynanew]

Have you ever heard of Polish 'barszcz/beetroot soup' instant ramen noodles...?

[@philoctetes_wordsworth]

Pea Episode!!!👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗. 🤣

[@schnuds]

6:58 I think it's an very American thing... in the parts of Europe I've lived/been in, no one has that we make ice cubes as in we put water in an ice cube tray & then freeze it

[@telebubba5527]

Actually it is used in Europe too. My sister has a fridge with an ice cube dispenser in the door. You don't even have to open the fridge. Search for them at hardware stores online. I can't think of an area in Europe where they wouldn't be sold.

[@laurelinyosoup]

My sister has a fridge with an ice cube maker (Finland), but her family is really into high-tech and smart homes in general. I don't think I've ever seen one in other people's homes. They do exist though! Just not as common as in the States.

[@michellekennedy4426]

I live in Ireland,no one I know has a ice cube maker plus I've never seen them sold in furniture stores so not super common here.

[@CarlGorn]

I love using instant noodles in soup. I throw out the seasoning packet, use my own homemade broth. The noodles just have a more reliable texture than using regular dried pasta. It's nice for when you're just making a batch that will be eaten immediately. Not so much for a big batch to last you a few days, though. Pasta's your friend there.

[@bangalorebobbel]

Wow so many instant noodle dishes, and all are great! Thanks a lot for that video! I totally love the WaiWai brand which is since many years also available in India. I definitely prefer it over other brands, what might have also to do with the fact that you can eat WaiWai noodles raw or just two minutes after adding water, giving you much more options compared to Maggi etc. Because you mentioned the WaiWai recipe cannot prepared long in advance, yes that is totally possible, there is just a little trick to do it: you prepare everything in advance and keep it in the fridge, and only just before serving you add the WaiWai noodles (and maybe you do the same with the Haldiram mix). It increases even the taste a bit if you keep all these veggies and onions etc. mixed in advance. It is totally up to you what you mix inside, whether mushrooms or a bit of canned corn or radish or Feta or Tuna or small chicken pieces or whatever else you want, it always tastes totally great.

[@Trendz4U]

Oh I'm really excited for this!

[@midoriya-shonen]

Me: aw man, I don't think I have anything to eat at home for dinner tonight, but I don't have the energy to go shopping. Guess I have to do instant ramen again Beryl: Oh boy do I have a treat for you 🍜

[@katja7560]

You can make a special episode for things you use rarely.

[@pamelapilling6996]

Cold soba noodles with soba dipping sauce is one of my favourite dishes. I never find it in restaurants.

[@ayamasakya4196]

Soba noodles can be found in Japanese restaurants.

[@williamgtz5393]

Hi, Beryl! Have you considered trying dishes with strong vinegar flavor? Don't know if there's a lot of vinegarlike dishes around the globe, but got to say that I love the flavor. Greetings from México. 🇲🇽

[@jillsarcasmo]

[@TF_NowWithExtraCharacters]

Regarding the vegetarian oyster sauce: yep, made from mushrooms and soy, no oyster. Doesn't taste the same as the one made from real oysters, but it serves a very similar purpose. Imagine adding a dollop of that to a stir-fry or stew

[@riturajsinghbais]

A well made saucepan always tips over if it's placed empty on a stove. Don't worry. That saucepan is ride or die

[@bettylocks2.0]

If you line the handle of the pot up with the bars of the stove trivet, it stops it tipping. I have the same issue with pretty much all my smaller pots on my gas hob/stove, and it is because there is nothing supporting the weight of the handle. 😊

[@OSheaDean]

Mama or La Mian 👍👍 Absolutely trying Erika's cold noodle dish.

[@AsjahKay]

I feel your ice cube pain Beryl, I always forget to refill them until I need more ice.

[@molissa3]

I have to say I love your shirt. My very fav movie ever.

[@saugequipeut]

Looooove the mushroom version

[@teridoster5840]

I’ve wanted to try Maggi Hot & Sweet sauce since I first saw it on your channel ages ago, but I just can’t seem to pull the trigger on the $15 Amazon price tag since I haven’t been able to find it in stores in my area. I’ll keep looking tho!

[@richardpetty9159]

Do you live in or near a large city? If so, drive over to an Asian market. It’ll be a lot of fun because you’ll see a lot of other things, too.

[@teridoster5840]

@ yeah, I’m about a half hour from any Asian groceries, and I don’t typically drive that direction whenever I do go anywhere, but one of these days I’m gonna make it there, lol

[@angelica40]

I’m a fan of your I love noddles too

[@anastasiarene6617]

Does the pot tip over like that when you put in on a counter or table? Maybe a portable induction burner which has a solid surface. They’ve gotten so much cheaper than when they first came out - you can get them anywhere, even IKEA. The problem is you won’t be able to use your Pyrex glass pot on it. 😢

[@kristinwright6632]

When you position the pot so the handle is over one of the bars of the stove it doesn't tend to fall over then. Put that handle at a 45 degree angle rather than 90 degree and see if that works. I have expensive pots that can happen with if I don't do that.

[@putul8963]

Hey Beryl, there were three books in the video, right? Two were A thousand ships and before the coffee gets cold. Can you please tell me the name of the third one? Thank you 🙏

[@TheMimiSard]

Ice, for me, is an automatic refill of the trays when I empty them. Part of it is the need for future ice, but also as a way of putting away the ice trays as well. But I also buy ice bags from the supermarket, but that ice is my summer crunch ice. I have only been buying ice bags this summer and last summer, but this summer I have been ordering two bags a week. Yes, I still use the ice trays, as the bag ice is for crunch, I use the trays for tea-making, and pull them out and empty them in the big jug to pour the tea over to cool. Mind you, today's jug of tea was chilled by a block of tea ice - I made a batch of tea (around 2 litres) and shoved it in the freezer. This morning I looked at the fridge and found my orange and passionfruit drink and like 3 quarters was still left in the bottle (I also buy two 3L bottles of Mildura a week) so I filled the big jug with that, so today's batch of tea is just tea and juice-drink.

[@TheMimiSard]

Maybe the Levantine dish was someone tossing in the dregs of their cup of coffee and deciding "That worked!" so they keep putting in some coffee and published the recipe online with the coffee in it.

[@TheMimiSard]

I found I only ordered one bag of ice this week. We have a predicted day with the power off for maintenance coming up, so maybe if I go light on cool days I can spin it out. (I eat it in 1 litre cup servings, sitting and crunching through it. It crunches easier than home-frozen ice cubes.)

[@mykafoxx]

I looooved your Indian alphabet videos💜❤️💗

[@dreamysap]

Instant noodles!!!! My fave kind...

[@r.h.6249]

This is a crazy coincidence but today i was craving maggi noodles specifically cheese maggi but my cheesw went bad so i experimented and put and sweet spicy ketchup and mayo in my maggi and it turned out so damn creamy and then i clicked on youtube and you were here making maggi noodles and other instanr noodles...and please do make maggi like that once, you will love it

[@cloverhighfive]

I just had an idea. I don't know if it's good lol - find an ingredient you have in your house remaining from some recipe (like the ube flavouring) and do a whole video on it, so 1. you'll finish the thing, and 2. everyone who bought the thing will finish theirs too, and 3. everyone who thought nah I'm not gonna do the recipe and be stuck with the thing, now can make many recipes! :) I'd call this series "help me empty my pantry" haha

[@MercuryXZ]

can you do an episode on cucumber dishes?

[@northernkarma9296]

13:19 Those noodles look so hearty and healthy and perfect. Side note, Maggi hot and sweet sauce is my favourite and I keep a shamelessly large stock pile of it if the big WW 3 happens! Gotta have that sauce!!

[@miznic]

that vegan oyster sauce... is on my radar for grocery shopping tomorrow... (edited to add: and now my hubs knows who to blame for my bhujia addiction... lol)

[@rkkr8466]

I’d love to try that wai wai chatpata but I don’t think we have this brand here. Any other good substitutes or just normal ramen?

[@akshatgaur9527]

Try top ramen curry noodles thet are also very good

[@FishareFriendsNotFood972]

If I'm on a diet and am offered ramen.....I pause my diet until tomorrow, lol

[@kareninalabama]

14:33 How about saying "I want to do an episode about various types of peas"?

[@fyrekrystaal27]

What can you use in place of amul cheese?

[@AmaliaSings]

My dad is CRAZY for maggie hot and sweet

[@limeparticle]

I thought the tipping pot had been banished forever! 😮

[@aleksandrabojadjieva4924]

What is the vine leaves dish the last girls is talking about?

[@anika9259]

This is excitingggg

[@marshaloneagle4646]

Lol, maybe do a bladkeye pea episode, a green pea episode, etc. :)

[@AlecS-p4b]

In Sweden, it's at best a rare luxury thing for rich people to have an ice maker built-in in a fridge. I have never seen one in real life in Sweden.

[@seemaprasad6677]

In US any decent sized refrigerator has built in ice makers. Being from India we rarely have ice or ice or ice cold water, even in 100 deg heat. When having to buy a new fridge, I looked for ever to get one without it, with no luck. Luckily I have one that you can shut off the ice maker. It stays shut all year except for the few times we invite people over for dinner. 30+ years in US and I still can't understand the Americans' obsession with ice.

[@AlecS-p4b]

@seemaprasad6677 I think ice is useful for adding in a towel to put on your body to cool down, but I often get brain-freeze headaches a hard time swallowing if I drink too cold water or suck on an ice cube. Also, your soda gets watered down when you put ice in it and that melts. Not a fan of it. Ice is also good for quickly cooling down atuff when cooling abd baking. But as often or rather seldom as I need ice cubes, I can manage by just using ice cube trays, and freeze water in 50 centiliter plastic bottles for using in a towel and put on my body to cool down during summer. Also, doesn't the extra stuff make the freezer/fridge more expensive than necessary?

[@donnawalker3910]

My LG fridge has ice in the door and a second ice maker in the pull out freezer. Plus we have a built in bubble ice machine. Why? It was there when we bought the house.

[@Eltanin24]

wai wai chat had everything but bay leaves :)
