I love how you really pay attention to the needs of your viewers, it shows how much you care (and yes, I'm talking about the Mike suggestion).

[@donalskehan]

What a fine tart you have there lads! Now pipe on a pile of meringue on top and I'm yours! :)

[@augustusvandusen6258]

+Donal Skehan yeah an authentic tart from the north of france always has meringue on top

[@KrazeeHouse]

+arthur herman well thats a lemon meringue tart, this is a lemon tart, or Tarte au citron, which classicaly doesn't have an italian meringue

[@MacBBakesTheCakes]

Agreed :)

[@callmeyourdai5y518]

no the tarte au citron traditionally has meringue. Lemon Meringue is made differently. There are several types of meringue.

[@006096]

the most beautiful discussion on internet!!!@@callmeyourdai5y518

[@fahimrahat1920]

Sorted has always had the best subscribers, I would say on KZbin. Everyone is friendly and thoughtful. And virtually no haters. I've been watching you guys since Barry cooked fish in a dishwasher 5 and a half years ago. Keep up the great work boys.

[@SortedFood]

+Fahim Rahat That's why we love you guys!

[@HJF]

loving the realness in this one. another great recipe.

[@elisas.8157]

Does anybody else feel this deep need to give Ben a hug and comfort him? Like #YouDoYouBen #ThatSprigOfMintReallyIsClassy #NoChoppingBoardDiscrimination

[@jecaosorio736]

Ben's clingfilm skills are ON POINT! Is that a thing they teach at uni or something? Clingfilm and I aren't actually simpatico and I can't help but be amazed at how Ben uses it without problems. I need some advice on how to do that. Thanks in advance!

[@SonaliMankaSingh]

It can sense your fear. Be confident with it.

[@AnaArantes]

+jeca osorio Be the master of it... show the clingfilm who is in charge! And always have a pair of scissors at hand. They will fear you.

[@sayenerocha4689]

I love how sorted food makes us feel important when you guys show and do what the comments ask . I think all of you adorable *.* greetings from Brasil!!

[@rosiefryer7156]

It took 3 takes to say that? I feel we should have some more bloopers :)

[@Lizzehh]

Agreed, would love to see some bloopers!

[@rosiefryer7156]

+Lizzy C yeah, the last ones were nearly 3 years ago lads! 😉xx

[@by_purqatory]

include bloopers at the end of the videos to make us watch until the end!!! lol

[@MacBBakesTheCakes]

Agreed :)

[@sansa9550]

yaa blooopers

[@TheLordFuzzles]

I love that subtle joke toward the end. Instead of serving it on one cutting board, they ate it off of three cutting boards.

[@wannasniffyoear]

I love when they enjoy the food at the end of the videos. It's my favorite part.

[@charlottehoyle273]

This tart is the meaning of lemony heavenly deliciousness and I love it, made it all by myself and I'm 15 so anyone can do it

[@Onekitchenblogfood]

Lemon tart heaven guys!! Absolutely beautiful!

[@naomipatrao]

I love how at 4:20, Ben screws up his nose as he feels the tartness of the lemon, saying, "Lemon Tart: tart, but sweet", like he's trying to convince both us AND himself! Hahaha! The SORTED Quartet are the cutest ever!

[@poisonmushroomcookie8770]

Holy Ben, Batman! Lemon is probably one of my absolute favorite flavors and y'all NAILED this recipe. No doubts.

[@lailazoghaib1734]

I'm 13 and obsessed with this channel...

[@umaymah5334]

So am I

[@TheVegetarianBaker]

+Laila Zoghaib Same

[@gracemorgan9576]

+Laila Zoghaib Same but I cook and bake all the time

[@nave7537]

Same but I don't really make any of the stuff here 😂😂

[@Simalacrum]

+Laila Zoghaib Good for you! :) Baking/cooking is a good hobby to get into while you're young. As a 24 year old, believe me: your future self will thank you for learning to cook now!

[@GalaxyStar85]

You guys are OUTSTANDING! I love this show and have been following along for a few years now i think. Always enjoy each and every new episode.THANK YOU!

[@AnaArantes]

In my house, instead of milk + sugar, we use a can of sweet condensed milk (because of course)... You should give it a try... ;)

[@SortedFood]

+Ana Arantes Because of course :D

[@robertoaguiar8082]

+SORTED Food Because she is probably Brazilian (given her name); and here people tend to overuse condensed milk. But she is right: lemon tart with condensed milk+lemon juice filling, and meregue topping is a classic in Brazil. It can be found everywhere.

[@abdulhussein122]

+Roberto Aguiar Well that's a shitty way to put it....Brazilian food is fucking bomb and when they put condensed milk into anything it tastes better

[@AnaArantes]

Abdul Hussein It's very good. Not better, just different... I think there's a compliment in that, somewhere... so thank you! ;)

[@AnaArantes]

Roberto Aguiar There's no such thing as an "overuse" of condensed milk... :P

[@tosharomano5367]

I really am fascinated by using some of the pastry to help tuck it in around the pan. Good tip!

[@BarbFromPoland]

I used this recipe for mini lemon tarts. I had 10, 9cm and used about half the pastry (I was weighing them instead of cutting because it was too loose to roll) at about 25g per mold. For the filling, I made 1/3rd from the recipe and it was so exactly 5 table spoons per mold and all were full. It came out perfect 👌

[@BarbFromPoland]

It was not so yellow at the beginning, but as it set, it got to the normal full yellow color. I was worried, so I’m writing for others to know :-)

[@BarbFromPoland]

Next day update: It’s almost impossible to take out of mold after a night in the fridge. When it was just baked it was very easy

[@bunnytootangy]

Lemon meringue tart is one of my favorite!!

[@sidhantkhatri9901]

+Bunny Tang There's no meringue in this. Use this recipe to make a Lemon Meringue Tart: www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/lemon-meringue-tart-recipe.html I use it all the time and it comes out perfect every time.

[@bunnytootangy]

+Sidhant Khatri thanks for the suggestions

[@andyt2k]

I agree with the fans that sent in suggestions, plenty of citrus flavor, I don't want it to taste a bit lemony, I want BAM lemon taste

[@CookieMonsterRawr21]

I am SO happy I found this channel, been following for a couple of months now and will, of course, continue to do so! The range of yummy dishes is amazing and the comedic value is top notch - keep up the good work, can't wait to see more! You deserve all the success that comes your way! X

[@SortedFood]

+Shamaila Iram Thanks! Glad to have you here :)

[@againemily]

I don't know why but one of the things I love most about sorted is that they never use a lemon reamer, they just squeeze the lemons with their hands using brute force XD

[@classicjitters]

No sprig of mint? My heart just sunk...

[@SortedFood]

+Yujin Ju I wasn't allowed! :(

[@AnnaChugunova]

+SORTED Food I actually would agree - a sprig of mint is missing :( tart looks naked without it.

[@irinabeer9578]

Here in argentina we make the filling with egg yolks, condensed milk and lemon juice. It comes out perfect every time!

[@doodbool3719]

i wish you guys use this simple format in a series again

[@stacey-lauren2931]

i love it when you guys do stuff with lemon.... lemon is my favorite! makes me so happy :)

[@hidupkusebagaidebbie2267]

Just what i need!!!!

[@FoodAndDrinkInSeconds]

We do LOVE a citrus dessert and this looks delicious :)

[@TheVegetarianBaker]

This lemon tart looks amazing

[@JulieTardif]

This is the best pie ever! Just had a piece for breakfast! Thank you!

[@idkjolyn]

I think it's cute how the cream was in a glass bottle!

[@EmilyJelassi]

this is practically the same as my lemon tart recipe, except i use extra lemon zest (not orange) in the crust. delicious!

[@happyfoodstube]

Love lemon tart! Look delicious!

[@boy638]

Instead of vanilla sugar, I would put seeds from a vanilla pod to give it a stronger vanilla flavour and the seeds gives the tart a nice look to it :)

[@Xx1midnightcry1xX]

every time I've seen something I didn't want to see, I come hear to clear my mind. love you guys 😁

[@pipocaaa]

I don't even like lemon and after watching this I have the urge of going out and buying a tin and some baking beans.

[@princessabella6033]

can you make another series? this is the concept, you'll find or subscribers will request any recipes found in PINTEREST. to test if its doable or not, or just to know if its delicious or not,.... perhaps upgrade an pinterest recipe. sounds great right? you're welcome!

[@princessabella6033]

ps: love you guys!

[@melindaberman2393]

i think this is the first dessert video where ben HASN'T put a spring of mint on the dessert. At first I was upset, now I am overjoyed. Maybe we can stop Ben's mint addiction!!!!

[@cianohaskfell5973]

This look soo good , and help-me to improve my english ! Thank ALL of you só much !!!!

[@cherrie1415]

"It's not on a chopping board" and Ben's adorable laugh at 3:53 is everything!

[@rudigert99]

[@sjhlion]

I'm actually going to make tartlets this weekend and was hoping to see a good filling recipe here. Now, I'm debating about changing my dessert. :)

[@ShereeMaryamDeen]

Omg! That looks amazing! Makes my mouth water.

[@jr52990]

I challenge you to make a full meal using Only ingredients in Barry's fridge.

[@BabyBluePrincezz]

+Joshua Walters are you James's brother? (HAHAHA sorry I just had to!)

[@celiniciousth]

+Joshua Walters OMG YALL SHOULD DO THAT whats IN barry's fridge first of all

In chile (i have no idea if it's common in other countries as well) we make lemon pie which is filled with condensed milk and lemon juice and topped with creamy meringue :) it is so yummy!

[@storiesbybrittney]

[@rhiannearcher-frew5637]

Mike is gorgeous! The tart looked amazing as well, but mike is so yummy!

[@Xereoth]

For anyone following the recipe from the website, the filling can fill 3-4 pies. Halve of what they say will be plenty regarding the filling.

[@lautaroneumann810]

Great job guys! I hate condensed milk and I dont like mint so this is the perfect recipe to me. I love it! Argentina love ya ❤

[@StephanieMorelli]

[@heraakhalid596]

[@FroodTooth]

[@golden1302]

Oh yeah! You guys do it every time. xx

[@enyao3537]

Da boys: "So what zest are we using today, Ben? Lime? Lemon? Or-" Ben: "ORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGE!!!!"

[@dwaynewladyka577]

Would a combination of lemon, lime and orange work in this? I love lemons.

[@Fatimah34363]

I am 13 and watching cooking channels!!! Gosh I feel so old!

[@MakeSushi1]

looks delicious :)

[@moiztareen122]

oh mah gad. i love your sushi channal 😅😅 strange of you to comment here

[@MakeSushi1]

thank you :)

[@jenzwooz2043]

looks great... I was talking about Mike

[@wanzuli5485]

Suggestion: Make a recipe for Rendang (a Southeast Asia dish) with western twist please?

[@cyclamind]

Nice! I would like to see something with walnuts and dried figs.

[@chucknight]

I've been trying to figure out why your videos seem so different these days and I think I've got it: The videos used to be Ben showing the boys how to cook and in turn teaching us how to cook. Nowadays, it seems like a straightforward cooking show where Ben just shows us how to cook and the boys assist him. Does anyone else feel the same or does the cheese stand alone?

[@Sarah-tb6io]

Yyyeeeeesssssss

[@nandapanda92]

Have you tried your hand at making Rotiboy aka Mexican coffee buns? They have made a huge splash in Southeast Asia and Korea. Pillowy white buns with a crisp coffee topping. So delicious. I would love a video :)

[@adiosepic1829]

Btw, in my experience, it's easier to zest firm lemons, so the softening them up by rolling should be done post-grating.

[@ktschrettner]

I am definitely making this. Maybe with some grapefruit too!

[@agirlandhermusic99]

just when I thought I couldn't fancy Mike anymore he goes and grows his beard out a little more than usual! ultimate heart eyes

[@1Dispretty2me]

i love soggy bottoms in pastry like this, all my quiches and tarts are wobbly and slightly soggy

[@AllergyActressCooking]

Love the pacing of this video! I'd also love to know what you did for your lighting. And of course the tart sounds amazing! Great job guys!

[@brendapxh]

looks so good!!!

[@MelanieGalima]

This looks so good!

[@junepereira97]

I'm surprised it was only 3 takes. I thought it would be more 😂😂😛😛. Great recipe by the way.

[@perspectivelee]

perfection in 4 minutes x

[@hortypuma5412]

Please do a lemon / tangelo drizzle cake

[@SteampunkPrincess]

"Not on a chopping board." Riiiiiight... I see what you did there Ben. It may be on a plate, but that plate is on top of like 5 chopping boards.

[@SortedFood]

+SteampunkPrincess ;)

[@amazingkickthedanisnotonfi5768]

The 'lift and roll' is the pastry version of the 'bend and snap'

[@tomysonnier9128]

Do you keep the dough trimmings for future baking or do you discard them?

[@raghusood]

guys u should do a tutorial on how to make English muffins it will be awesoms

[@jamiesalloum9771]

WHAT NO SPRIG OF MINT??? THIS IS MADNESS

[@seamusburkett5233]

could you show us how to make bakery style muffins (blueberry or choc chip)??

[@wizzzard999]

How would you change the baking times if you were making a bunch of 3" tartlets instead of one big one?

[@Ethendirhil]

Let's all write down this lesson from Ben : "No soggy bottom". And damn, now I have to go buy lemons !

[@loveandmusic91]

This is really close to my favorite desert Lemon Meringue Pie :)

[@elodi_rose]

Can you guys make a behind the scenes video? Including clips from creating the recipe, shopping for ingredients, and all of the hard work that you put into your videos :) Maybe for a fridge cam...

[@CanuckJim]

I think Mary Berry should pop in to check out your work.

[@crowskinned]

Could you try making a Butterscotch - Cinnamon Pie?

[@Premanator2000]

Now do a classic strawberry tart!

[@rosemaryhe8257]

bit surprised Ben didn't add a sprig of mint this time!

[@alidexy7760]

Please do something with scampi or seafood - I adore things like that!😘😋💚🍤
