Don’t Buy Bottled Sauce Until You’ve Watched This Video

Hey Andy - if you want your pesto to stay green, you need to blanch the basil leaves before blending. I've done this myself and can confirm it works.

[@joshjamesuk]

Surely this will completely change the taste of the basil?

[@Alphonselle]

@@joshjamesuk Not at all. Blanch in boiling water for 10 seconds, shock in ice water, squeeze out excess water. Green veggies for days.

[@Sweet.Nightmare89]

i put thin layer of oil on top of pesto and just mixing it in every time i take some out, it gets little bit thiner but not much to bother me

[@KJezza]

Yeah a thin layer of olive oil on top in the jar stops the oxidisation for a while

[@mentallyinsaneryan6895]

It going brown, has todo with the air that is getting to it

[@SaschaBielicke]

Thank you for the nice recipes ... if you want keep the pesto longer green - stop the oxidation by always keep a layer of oil on top after scooping something out of the jar

[@marc_spence]

Mate, every time I get a bit sick of cooking, I watch one of your vids and I always get at least one thing from it that gets me back into the kitchen and inspired to have a crack. This time was the Nuoc Cham so thank you once again brother.

[@Chig_Beggers]

The one thing I love about Andy's recipes is that they're easy. They cater to both amateur and home cooks without the barrier to knowledge. Making a lot of these sauces I feel is daunting when researching on your own, and there's so much variation in the recipes that I imagine to a lot of novice chefs it's a bit of a turn-off. But it's great to see such an simple guide for condiments I use everyday with easily accessible ingredients. Excellent vid!

[@andy_cooks]

Thanks legend, glad you liked the video!

[@robertsmoker6655]

@@andy_cooks Andy can you hack the praise French dressing ? Aka make a recipe video

[@AhimSaah]

It looks easy on TV but making these things creates a mess in your kitchen, just think of cleaning your blender! Andy is very entertaining and cool but doing this stuff is a nightmare, you don't see the behind the scenes. That's why we don't do condiments in Mediterranean cousine, tomato sauce is garlic and tomatoes and nothing else.

[@Null_Experis]

If you have an immersion cooker/sous vide machine, you can make your homemade mayo last much longer by pasteurizing your eggs before using them. Set your water bath to 135.0ºF, and when it comes up to temp gently place your eggs inside for 1 hour and 20 minutes. When done, put them into an ice water bath to cool them and dry them off, then mark the shells with a P so you know which ones are sterilized and put them in the fridge. Mayo made from pasteurized eggs will last up to a month with no issue.

[@JC_2311]

You meant "up to a month...no problem"😉

[@asbibu3240]

Hey Andy, can you make a episode where you explain why we need to use dry spices instead of taking use of the real vegetable/herb? =)

[@TrinaMadeIt]

Pesto freezes really well!! We make huge batches and freeze in individual portions.

[@andersonomo597]

Kosho - never heard of it but definitely will make it, it sounds amazing AND it's so economical. I love recipes that use ingredients that might otherwise end up discarded, like citrus skins. The tomato sauce is one I'll try when tomatoes are in season. Looking forward to the celebration when you hit 5 MILLION subscribers! YOU, dear Andy, are THE LEGEND!! Cheers from Sydney.

Hey Andy, doubtful you'll see my message but I just wanted to say im a massive fan and your channel has been a much needed escape for me that last few months. I was diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma at 23 years old at the beginning of July and have started chemotherapy since. I wanted to extend my thanks that your videos have given me alittle bit of an escape and inspiration to cook and love food again as chemo sort of rips that enjoyment away from you at times. and FINALLY, I now have perfected grilling steaks thanks to your videos!! which is such a win at the moment. Absolutely love the videos Andy! Keep up the fantastic work

Excellent video as always. The biggest takeaway for me is the technique Andy uses for zesting the citrus for the kosho. I have been doing it wrong my whole life.

[@simonbertiou3611]

Pesto also freezes really well , if you use it for hot foods its not a problem and if you want to use it for cold stuff just take it out a few hours later

[@LynneBaillie-d3j]

When I am planning to freeze pesto I leave out the cheese. I add in cheese after it is thawed and I’m ready to use it.

[@myopiczeal]

I keep an old ice cube tray around for pesto and demi-glace. Make cubes, dump into bags, grab a couple cubes when I need them.

[@iwakiri_]

@@LynneBaillie-d3j when I do it I use good quality aged parmigiano, and it preserves its flavours really well, but overall, Parmigiano is just there for the msg and the salty flavours, so it's pretty similar if added later. Try nettle pesto!

[@surlespasdondine]

you never heat pesto. You add it to warm pasta but the pesto itself is never heated. I either make it fresh with a mortar or buy a good brand.

Learned something new today.... I've been making what I call Aioli from a recipe from my Dad. But it uses egg yolks. So I've been making a garlic mayo apparently. Still very tasty on steaks that I serve with it. Going to try the real thing from here sometime.

[@gackerman99]

lots of restaurants in the U.S. call mayo aioli for some unknown reason. so it's not your fault

[@vaazig]

It's a quick allioli, but it's not.tjr authentic thing. Allioli gets its name from all=garlic and oli=oil, so garlic and oil. Those are the only ingredients. It's hard in a machine so a mortar and pestle is used. The oil has to be worked in very slowly, so it's not a quick process at all. It's vegan though, and delicious with meat.

[@janicecarey3592]

@@vaazig If you are eating meat, why would you care if it is vegan. :) Just joking.

Love love LOVE the proper distinction between mayo and aioli. I've got a friend with a wicked egg allergy and it's always a bother for her when we go places and have to ask if the aioli that's everywhere on menus has egg in it. Just because aioli and mayo are similar, and aioli has some gourmet connotations, does not mean that you can call your mayos aiolis.

[@rwhynot1]

I just made a hot sauce today after a 3wk fermentation of reapers, Trini scorpions and 7 Pot Brain Strain peppers. Half the batch was straight-up like Andy's, just a touch of vinegar and the second was flavoured with garlic, onion with equal parts honey, liquid smoke, apple cider vinegar and bourbon. Homemade hot sauce is so much fun - you don't even need to ferment (but the flavour is so much better).

[@HeatherRobbins-dk2ko]

Hey, love your work. Can you please tell us about the little gas cooker you often use on the bench.

There’s a great ramen restaurant my brother in law took me to in Sydney. He lived in Japan for many years. I had never been crazy about ramen, but I tried a yuzu one and it was AMAZING!!!!!!!! With loads of yuzu rind in it, it cut through the rich broth. Delicious.

[@josephfowler5728]

You’re so right. It’s how I first had it in Kumamoto. Incredible stuff. It’s always in my fridge these days. If you want a fermented version, look for Kanzuri.

[@cthulhudude23]

Pesto is definitely a fave to make knowing how easy it is to make. Same thing with salsa verde.

I started to make my own ketchup and sweet chili sauce without sugar (with monkfruit) and it tastes sooo much better than store bought no sugar sauces.

[@MrDancingrobots]

That's such a good idea, I love sweet chili sauce but hate that much added sugar

[@MrHighRaw]

Just stick with the six year old sauces at the back of the fridge. The added fermentation adds to the flavour. Plus just remember that if it's safe to eat blue cheese then blue mayo is fine.

Great and timely video! I just started making my own Aioli last week as Heinz Seriously Good is getting pretty expensive here in your homeland Andy. I guess it is garlic mayo now though as it has eggs in it. Either way it was bloody great! I was using Virgin Olive Oil for it but going to swap out half of that for Canola next time as it is pretty expensive and Avocado oil is even more expensive. Might have a crack at your real aioli too, as I do own a mortar and pestle.

I did a fermented chilli sauce once - popped them in a vacuum bag with some salt and sealed them up.

Then made the sauce similarly to yours from that point.

For the pesto make a seal by leveling it and pouring a thin layer of olive oil on top. Once you break the seal just mix in the oil and reseal with a bit more oil. Naturally if you do that reduce the initial amount of oil and use smaller jars so that you don't have to reseal more than twice.

Alioli traditionally doesnt use lime or anythibg like that, its straight up crushed garlic with oil. Ali (from the latin root word for garlic) and oli (same for oil).
