How Restaurants Do Sour Cream Better - Home Cooking Hack

Why do restaurants always have better sour cream? Is it because they make it from scratch? OR is it because they prepare them better…
My hopes in this video is to show you how restaurants elevate their sour cream but for your own applicability at home. Let me know if you would like to see more of these hacks!

I move to the DR about two years ago, and I’ve missed CHIPOTLE so much. I made your recipes and wow.. thank you so much!!

[@CookingwithChris1]

Glad you like them!!!

[@PoeLemic]

Thank you for showing us this. Nice to see you making new content. Please, keep showing us how to make copycat versions (your take, of course) of Chipotle recipes. You were the only person on the planet that taught us how to do Chipotle chicken right. You've got it nailed down pat. Now, we don't have to spend as much out. Too bad you can't help people copycat Taco Cabana or Taco Bell too. Those places just cost too much, so we are learning to do everything at home. If you want, I'd be more than happy to share what I've learned so far, but you probably already know what I know because you worked at a similar place. All I am doing is watching people on KZbin and taking notes.

[@CookingwithChris1]

Yeah we can collaborate!

[@PoeLemic]

@@CookingwithChris1 Another place that people go to is CulinaryHill on the web with Meggan. She's got some top-notch Chipotle recipes, but she doesn't have videos. Or, at least on 05-17-2024, she doesn't have videos for it -- like you do. Please, do a printed book of copycat Chipotle recipes, and I would buy it. Or, even an e-book. Sell it for $9.99 and make yourself some easy money. I sure would if I knew what you know.

[@eltacobandito]

Idk but the mexican lala sour cream is so fire. Literally my fav

[@milanjankovic4925]

I add a bit of garlic powder and a few drops of pickled jalapeno water

[@1CandyGirl]

THANK YOU, CHRIS. 👏🏾 Taco Tuesdays at my middle school are very busy days. To add, that thick Daisy sour cream is the cause of the tremendous slow-down in the food line. I tried the 'stir' trick last week but didn't do it long enough 'til my hands were ready to fall off. From now on, I will.

[@tomasgarau5338]

You need to show us how to make black and pinto beans! I've tried too many times without it coming out anywhere close to how I want it to. Great vid btw

[@jjojobobohohojhb]

He did a video on the black beans already

[@robhulson]

You got a nicer kitchen, Chris! And lighting. I still tell everyone I make your Chipotle recipes for about your channel, or anyone I know who eats Chipotle. 😜

[@CookingwithChris1]

Thanks rob! I appreciate you spreading the word.

[@n19kolas63]

Thanks for all these cooking videos! Would you do a video on the chipotle steak recipe similar to the one you did on the chipotle chicken?

[@tresbeans]

Thanks for the tip. And just because other restaurants do it different doesn’t make yours wrong. ✊

[@CookingwithChris1]

That’s how I see it! I love hearing about everyone else’s ways of doing things. It just makes me better!

[@gumplebumpproductions]

Bro… I’ve been so curious about this!! Definitely appreciate these tips and recipes!

[@CookingwithChris1]

Hell yeah! Hope it works for ya

[@alexgomez-bi2bk]

I've eaten sour cream with yellow rice and chicken, but I'm going to try your technique thanks

[@jazminleech751]

Your Nachos look divine

[@theguyshow3392]

I like to season it with lime juice salt and pepper, spices.

[@L.DOT.P.]

Love this channel bro thank you

[@CookingwithChris1]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@taegancharles8336]

If possible can you show us how to do the Regular Steak at Chipotle? It's one of my favorites there and there seems to be no recipe that matches it the same as the in store steak. that would be awesome! great video btw!

[@CookingwithChris1]

I have it under my short video recipes

[@taegancharles8336]

Just saw it, it looks amazing and looks way better than any of the other copy cat recipes that are on the web! Can’t wait to try it!

[@riffdex]

I too prefer this runnier consistency of sour cream like what you get at chipotle. If you leave the sour cream in the squeeze bottle and place it in the fridge does it become solid again?

[@CookingwithChris1]

It will but it takes a while. Just give it a quick stir and should loosen right up!

[@rhoads0098]

Please do a video on your nachos!

[@CookingwithChris1]

Okay!

[@kevinscovers7171]

All you do is take heavy whipping cream, add like a little lemon juice, stir and cover before bed.when you wake up you will have a lot more sour cream, cheaper, and the ingredients and know how to make more when you run out.

[@kevinscovers7171]

Plus it will be around chipotle sour cream consistency already, so at most all you need is to stir just to combine at night, and again, you don’t have to whisk your hand off next day.

[@kevinscovers7171]

Takes a bit more time but 90% of it is just sleeping

[@kevinscovers7171]

So cheaper, easier, less painful on the wrist and bonus, you get to sleep. Plus restaraunts likely have enough lemons and whipping cream to make their own in batches pretty much free.

[@kevinscovers7171]

Learned it while looking for a video like this, so if you don’t have the time, and you do have sour cream already this is perfect.

[@victorestevez7809]

Does Chipotle make their own sour cream -if so, can you show us, or do they buy a specific brand?

[@CookingwithChris1]

I would follow this for the best match 😁

[@cheddabandz4768]

Try Crema supremo

[@RRGHOST2006]

@@CookingwithChris1 hey Chris can you please inform me how to create their crunchy tacos.. I’ve tried many of different ways and none match.

[@dizziechef9502]

I use a hand mixer not a whisk. Same results.

[@CookingwithChris1]

genius! even easier

[@aeromotive2]

nice !

[@jena5642]

Do the cilantro rice please

[@fafflerproductions]

Take 2 cups of extra long grain white rice ______________________________ Side note: Make sure to wash it with cold water thoroughly. If you don't have a strainer, put the rice in a bowl, fill it up with cold water, mix the rice vigorously with your hand, dump the water and repeat until the water is basically clear. ______________________________ Put the rice in a rice cooker with 3 cups of water, and remember to add a single bay leaf. Then let the rice cooker do its job. Chop one bunch of cilantro while you wait for the rice to cook. When the rice is done, add 2-3 Tablespoons of vegetable oil, mix it, and let it sit in the rice cooker on the warm setting for 10 minutes. Mix in a half a cup of the cilantro you chopped Add half a teaspoon of salt Add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of lime juice Then mix thoroughly and you're done Hope this helps!

Is that so? 😮

[@Atilio.isaias]

Do chipotle steak plz🤞🏽

[@CookingwithChris1]

I have one in my shorts!

[@soapymommy]

Can you use a blender for a larger amount of sour cream?

[@IzzyEatz]

Do you have the carnitas recipe or a video?????

[@CookingwithChris1]

I do, it’s a short!

[@IzzyEatz]

@@CookingwithChris1 ok I found it

[@jedidias7091]

How long does this last after you whipped it ? When refrigerated does it turn back thicker or keep the drizzle effect ?

[@CookingwithChris1]

It takes a few days before it needs to get stirred agaib

[@bobdobbs7828]

Why bother to like and subscribe if your videos are every 6 months?

I’m working on it, but ain’t that the truth.

Working on a new video right now! Gonna be short ones, but I am getting back to it. Anything you’d like to see?

I just finished the queso video! It is in my shorts.

[@BeginnerVids]

This is wrong. It’s 1:1 Sour and half&half.

[@CookingwithChris1]

Again, this is my experience! I love to see everyone’s different techniques

[@georgiabigfoot]

From my experience restaurants use James Farm sour cream

[@cratediggah]

Actually you're wrong brah! It's been confirmed time and time again chipotle uses daisy sour cream, they just beat the bag until it reaches desired consistency

[@user-gk2ut8mc5e]

I was gonna say there is no way to make squeezable sour cream by JUST whisking a tub of sour cream till it's warm(yuck) and thus thinner😂

[@cassandramollura4233]

​@@user-gk2ut8mc5eI just did right now and it's pretty squeezable, even more than mustard
