Some people will never understand how therapeutic it is to finely chop a bunch of vegetables and then just ****ing eat them.

[@AuntamedWolf]

recreational cutting yes

[@insertclevername4123]

Trust me--confetti does not make every occasion more festive. On the upside, being banned from family funerals frees up a fair amount of time, and those things are just way too depressing anyway.

Coming from you, that is a real compliment!

[@leonbelmont4028]

just a tip if you still haven't made it: i would replace the olive oil with some mayo and add some canned tuna. trust me it makes it so much better. i have been making this for years now..

[@nostalgicfragments]

“The perfect crime”. Haha!! What other food crimes have you committed? 😉 It looks amazing! I can’t wait to try it!

[@chrispavlides2105]

“Freshly thawed” peas! You’re so funny Chef John!

OMG that looks great and once again you accidentally made a vegan dish! LOL keep up the great work going to make this tomorrow thank you so much John

[@aliaoutrey8669]

Coming from a home-made fried rice addict, that rice salad looks delightfully delicious, Chef John! As usual, I got immense satisfaction watching you eat some at the end, and I had to giggle that you ate from the serving bowl hahaha!

[@C00kii0]

When I'm depressed I watch your channel because cooking is the one thing that brings me joy. Its joy I can share.

[@alkinoosmpoukouras]

Throw a can of tuna (olive oiled) in there and some lemon to taste, thank me later. Chef John you rock

[@alkinoosmpoukouras]

That ricey goodness needs some canned fishy goodness!

[@BriPer1992]

That also sounds really good!

[@jeanm.buscemi7967]

I made this tonight but I actually kept mine at room temperature. It was GOOOOD !! Thank You for the recipe..✌🏾

Where do I get the "freakishly small wooden spoon?" And me, being me, I will use brown rice and my pressure cooker.

How does he come up with this stuff lol

[@torbai]

Why you guys don't use the rice cooker for cooking rice?

[@foodwishes]

Very few American's have rice cookers, since it's not a starch side that's made very often.

[@firstnamelastname9646]

Thanks Chef John, I have been looking for a cold rice dish to pack for work! Would be cool to see some more rice salads you could come up with. 😁

[@NaomiClareNL]

Cutting up veggies (and/or meat) is a good way for me to practice mindfulness and relax after stressful moments earlier in the day. It is one of the better things about cooking for me (after the tasting and eating of course).

I have learned so much from you, Chef John. You’re the best! I thank you, and my family thanks you. I had a spinal surgery a couple years ago, and during recovery, stuck at home, I spent a long time dealing with depression. My way out was becoming a home chef. I wanted to write you a thank you, because of all the recipes I’ve watched and tried and learned from, you have been a guiding light and an inspiration the whole time. Thank you, Chef John. So very, very much.

[@beth77449]

I love watching you, you make cooking fun. Thanks for brightening my life

[@kareemosman3064]

this will put my boring avocado and red paper salad to shame. Note. I am positive it will get tossed to my face one day.

[@765respect]

What? No one has tossed the red paper salad to your face yet? I don't think I will eat red paper salad:) That said, there is nothing boring about avocado and red peppers.

[@davidk.1089]

You are really talented! But, I'd suggest lowering the salt. Seems like a lot

[@jimmie200]

I, too, could live on cheeseburgers.

[@katesage3221]

So much salt ...🤔

[@caitlynlunsford6130]

Pointing out that people who complain about the time involved in cutting up vegetables are also those who don't cook, is quite possibly the best observation he's made.

[@gandalfthegay9503]

Thank you so much for this video! I've never heard of that method of cooking rice, I consider myself a very capable cook, however i consistently screw up rice every time in some shape or form. I think its a rice curse! Which sucks because I love rice. Seriously, thanks a bunch dude. Entertaining and educational as always!

[@bftigdd]

Chef john how proud of me are you LOL

[@voidofopinion]

Some people have disabilities which makes chopping veggies more difficult and time consuming, if not impossible John... really unnecessary shaming there...

[@worldoutlookwithbilal]

I impressed by his prompt ideas and the way he speaks. Lively Voice From pakistan

[@KoyasuNoBara]

As the one who does the slicing, dicing, mincing, etc. for my sister's cooking, it is actually annoying and time consuming. However, I'm pretty sure it's because our knives suck.

[@ChrisArbaugh]

Bruh - It's late on the East Coast, but I am seriously considering going to the grocery right now to get some fresh veggies right now and making this happen. Like, really --- I might.

[@coolwater55]

Thank you for cooking rice technique! I do similar with brown rice, but not the pilaf...i will definitely try that next time! This is a great salad mixture. Gratitude!!

[@chloeba-baminnie392]

Made it and family LOVED it! Now, taking it for potluck at work but using fruit vinegar instead. Yummy!

[@nunya9034]

Double dipping with your fork! Then the cover up. Ewwww. 😂

[@mattie_makes990]

The comment chef made about people who don’t cook complain about chopping stuff being hard is so true 😅

[@ginafriend1690]

The only thing to mess this salad up, would be not making it! Yumm!!

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

Shit hot Chef J. Brilliant recipe.

[@TheChickenRiceBowl]

I've been unknowingly making confetti salad out of leftovers from dinner to have for lunch at work the next day. Been doing this for months and had no idea it was a real recipe with a name lol.

[@sweetbabyrick5382]

I love Chef John, you always learn something. This dish isn't for me but I got a couple of chuckles and found out about the pilaf method in the process. He's the Wolfgang Puck of your next potluck.

[@boojay111]

living alone I could never make this much but wondered how long is cold rice safe to eat if kept in fridge, thanks CJ

[@grapetomatogirl2141]

This was delicious Chef John, thank you. I don’t have a freakishly small spoon, but I did use my freakishly small whisk. Also, I used the boiling vegetable water for the rice, and, it set in the fridge for the full 24 hours. I’ll use the tips you posted on your site next time I make this. However, I’ll make a double batch so I can keep one of them vegan. Thanks again Chef ~

[@debrankine6453]

How I’ve missed the freakishly small wooden spoon!

[@pasgaf19]

Isn't it bad to eat raw (or blanched) green beans? I learned you should always fully cook them.

[@OMGitsTerasu]

But is there cayenne?

[@cyberherbalist]

There was! It went by rather quickly, but it was there...

[@walterkeathley]

Chef, should the rice to water ratio be adjusted to the type of rice we’re cooking? Or by this method is it a 2:3 ratio regardless if it’s short, medium, or long grain?

[@delicatedark2376]

Because confetti cake just isn’t enough!

[@Ladyoftheroundtable]

Please for the love of god talk like a human being. You get these one of sentences that sound normal and it's a constant reminder you can speak naturalistically

[@cozettewendemu7007]

Do you find it works just as well with brown rice? Thanks for sharing.

[@sandrastreifel6452]

Looks delicious!

[@swongsonvanee]

So you're sticking the fork in your mouth and then putting it back in the bowl of rice?

[@robinbaich169]

This looks absolutely delicious! I'm going to try it, but I'll cook my rice the old fashioned way - on the stove.

[@twolfn]

Will you ever run out of people to reference? You are a beautiful human. Never change ♥️

[@ShirleyBrian]

I love getting a great deal on 4-5 pounds of carrots - and then chop and cut them in various sizes. I freeze them and therby always have nice sticks, ribbons or cubes of carrots ready for any sort of meal. Knife skills for the win :D

[@platypus5543]

I love you, Chef John! This rice reminds me a little bit of a salad the Monks at La Tourette Monastery made for me and my fellow travelers when we arrived late, after dinner. What a beautiful recipe! Thanks....and I do enjoy!

[@acm1101]

This looks delicious Chef. Can’t wait to try it. I might go for your suggestion and use butter instead of olive oil for the rice.

[@KatsaGrace1]

I like a little rice and veg with my oil ..wow why so much? I love your videos but wow

[@kendavis8046]

Just finished (except for the dill and parsley) with this salad, to be paired this evening with some nice salmon steaks and brussels sprouts (I know, not everyone likes those, but my wife and I do.) The taste test before I put it into the refrigerator to relax for the next 6 hours or so yielded another wonderful dish from Chef John. Thank you, sir, and thumbs up!

[@oceancream9071]

I tried this and it turned out great, easy to make ,too. It also tastes good with soy sauce.🙂
