Has James May made the worst sandwich yet?

[@NickH1997]

I love James's surprised reaction to "unexpectedly" finding each of his prepared ingredients in the fridge

[@reliantncc1864]

I wouldn't have expected to find spices - in the fridge. It's an odd place to put them, for sure.

[@ArbathSahadewa]

Weird isn't it.

[@DJ_Mooseknucks]

The crew should plant a decapitated head in there next time, just for funsies

[@GundamFreedomz]

@@reliantncc1864 it's a great place to store spices if you live in the tropics. Keeps it dry so that it doesn't clump

[@littlebigman6957]

That's the joke 😊

[@lymb3914]

Watching two adults share a perfectly awkward silence for six straight seconds while they tried to think of something to say about what they were eating was magical, thank you

[@theyarenthere]

All these unusual and exotic ingredients slapped between a couple slices of “council bread” and “lurpak salted butter founded in 1901” is just hilarious to me 😂

[@reliantncc1864]

It's like wearing a kimono and tennis shoes.

pretty sure that butter is spreadable more than salted

It’s always great to see that Lucy Brown has invited James onto her show! 😉

[@DEAJP10]

Don’t get me started! She did soooooo well finding that spoon after saying there weren’t any and needing to be asked to go and check 🙄

[@danm2173]

I love when Lucy makes an appearance. I miss her videos on Lucy at Drive Tribe youtube channel. Her & James make a great team. I want to believe they are real friends because it seems they are.

[@MrDPlaysStuff]

What if you used the gin to pickle something like a cucumber, lettuce, cabbage or something similar to inform the flavour of the gin into whatever sandwich you make? I reckon I could be on to something here.

[@Magpie_Media]

..bit like Kimchi then?

Ginchi?

I still get surprised by the appearance of James’ evil twin every time the fridge door opens.

[@IntelligenceCorn]

In an attic somewhere there's a portrait of James May ageing, de-ageing and then ageing again erratically.

[@ricksgrandauditorium8790]

Why am I cracking up everytime James opens that door. Thank yall for the content.

[@ragerancher]

Cheese

[@Felice_Enellen]

Even watching James accomplish nothing at all is such a lovely, relaxing event.

[@Sackmatters]

I wish we got to see more James videos, absolutely love the guys energy. When I was young I preferred clarkson and Hammond but May has a special spot now days. He’s just a normal guy doing goofy stuff lol.

[@pamelah6431]

Nah... Andrew is kinda meh. Uncle roger and james collab would be funny, but tbh no youtube foodie/chef really matches his vibe.

[@CoehnJJohnson]

i don’t ever wanna lose james, richard, or Jeremy

[@Games_and_Music]

I used to make cheese and Doritos Hot Salsa dip sandwiches, with some added sliced sour pickles, but that was about 20 years ago by now, they had changed the recipe and it became much more like a sauce than the watery dip that it used to be, which i loved. To be fair though, the watery dip made it impossible to prepare the sandwiches and eat them some time later, because they'd be soaked and falling apart by then, but still, it just tasted better. Long story short, have you tried making sandwiches with dips?

[@joonassummanen6130]

James should definitely make a new cooking show for Amazon Prime, but this time make food with weird ingredients and combinations (and maybe his Gin) suggested by the fans. So almost like this.

[@tetsubo57]

I'm beginning to think there is literally only the exact ingredients in the fridge and James is just pretending to suddenly "find" each one of them as if it wasn't just right there

[@reliantncc1864]

Another possibility: it's like those magic shops you see in fiction like Twilight Zone. It actually has whatever the person looking needs. If James opens it, he finds the ingredients for his sandwich. If I open it, it's just chock full of beer, cheese, and pickles. If Lucy Brown opens it, it's empty because she doesn't actually like anything.

[@NGC-7635]

@@reliantncc1864 😂

[@brolohalflemming7042]

I don't think they've ever said where the bunker is. Or shown inside the fridge. If they did, we'd see the big hole in the back of the fridge, the wall, and the inside of the food warehouse they've tunneled into. This is why James gives a cue "I wonder if we have any lard?" which prompts a runner to go fetch it, and plonk it on the shelf.

[@Burning_Dwarf]

I like the twilight zone theory. But my realistic guess is lucy stocks it with a vague idea james wants, lets say he uses half of whats in it.

[@sussvarman]

as someone from a tamil family, it's weird realizing that something i took as holistic stomach ache medicine (fenugreek, or 'venthaiyam' as my mother says, while i puke) is also used to make alcohol, which causes the very stomach aches.

[@justme002]

If you want this channel to do anything anymore you need to work the gin into it somehow.

[@wifisaysbye]

The best Christmas present one could ask for, a new sandwich video!

[@peterthompson7859]

Might have been an idea to add a splash of gin to the pan at the end to give the parsnip a bit of softness and caramelisation

[@GryphonWahle]

Lucy's highlights are on point.

[@gregmuon]

A better approach might have been to make quick pickles with the parsnip, and then use them to dress a banh mi sandwich. That would have required planning ahead 24 hrs though, and I suspect that much planning wasn't something they planned for...

[@619TheLineman]

There is something decidedly pleasing about a "gin sandwich". A quick phrase said amongst friends with an flexible interpretation and as an greater concept.

[@banderdash2702]

I think parsnip sandwich can work, just perhaps not pan fried. Maybe cubes of parsnip, skin on, parboiled and then roasted with the spices and a bit of oil would work better.

[@TinkersKustomPaintball]

When Lucy Brown said "Paste" I really felt that

[@KyleNornIreland]

So James raided the kitchen supplies. He admitted to the knives but seemed to be a lot more missing 😲

[@lukeproctor69]

Roast parsnip slices in an oven to remove the water content. Allow to cool; then create a marinate with the spices and add to the cooked but now cooled parsnip; allowing those flavours to seep into the parsnip. Pan fry the parsnip crisps at a high heat for a short time, then add to the council bread layered with Lurpak spreadable butter invented in 1901, season the crisps with a touch of sea salt, and serve. You could also separately create a spicy mayonnaise to dip the toasted sandwich into. Thank me later.

Honestly thought James was going to make a sandwich with gin "Roy Swallow Cliff, a tastefully modernized 18th century pub in south Wiltshire, just off the a30 between Shaftesbury and Salisbury. Very reasonably priced rooms, an excellent menu and a superb selections of wines, spirits and beers."

[@iankoladay]
