Yea and in the first place what he said about cooking was wrong? we originally cooked to make foods safe for consumption, no other reason. I don't disagree that food is an important part of a culture, but I don't think culture needs to be an important part of food if that makes sense, when a lot of people are struggling to cook in the time they have or with the budgets they have.

So it’s your original recipe then? Also, when you make it, is your frying oil become as dark as Josh’s oil that he used in the video here? It was nearly black and made me nauseous looking at it! I wouldn’t want to eat anything fried in that… I was wondering if it was the fermented fries that caused the oil to get that dark, or if he was reusing oil from some other gross recipe LOL.

[@RG-mb6jn]

The reason why the pickled fries lead to such crispiness is because it actually removes water from the cells of the potato. The pickle juice has a much lower osmotic potential than the potato, and so water is drawn out of the cells via osmosis. It is the same in how salting prosciutto ham will create a dry crust on the outside of the meat.

[@kel-seagull]

this is how my grade 9 biology teacher wanted me to see the world, all in terms of osmotic potential

[@arnevaneycken2878]

Yeah, I was getting confused when Josh was going on about them being water-logged considering they had been properly pickled instead of just parboiled.

[@christopherkarr1872]

@OP NERD! Seriously, though, that's a great comment. If anyone wants to improve browning on their fries, they can use an alkali solution (lye, lime - calcium hydroxide, or even baking soda) to soak the exterior for a few minutes prior to frying. Expect the fries to bubble a bit, as you're adding an acidic item to a basic mixture.

Here in Japan there's a lesser known type of sushi called Chirashi Sushi. It's sushi but deconstructed; a bed of vinegar rice with whatever raw fish, salmon roe, etc thrown about on top. The sushi bake is conceptually not that far off so I could see someone slowly pushing it from what it was to what it is. If people like it then why not :) P.S. marymaryquitecontrary9765 in the comments said that sushi bakes are warm dips in Hawaii which is one of the many places where Japanese culture has evolved outside of Japan so the more you know I guess!

[@paradisestruggle404]

Sushi bakes are super popular and enjoyed by locals in Hawaii. We also have tons of musubi options at 7-11 that are microwaveable/heated. We are very familiar with warm sushi and we definitely know chirashi sushi.

[@saboo480]

Thanks for adding to the conversation :) glad to have a local that can add more context. That's awesome

[@seev132]

I like Joshua’s videos but at times he can come off very pretentious, sushi bake is great and way faster to serve at parties if taste good it’s good!

[@saboo480]

I'm going to give him a little grace since he may be hamming it up for the camera and maybe some people find that entertaining? Hopefully someday he'll grow past that.

[@KaedeLanyo]

Isn't a compacted box, the original form of sushi anyways? With the roll being the later invention. In general it's a method which simply makes more sense for a home cook. Less equipment, less room for error, pretty much the same taste.

[@AvengerofGallifrey]

I made a version of the baked feta pasta today, and I've got to say, just making a few adjustments really turns it into a pretty nice and easy meal. All I did was add some cloves of garlic with the tomatoes for that roasted garlic flavour, added oregano in addition to the salt and pepper, put some cream cheese and pasta water with the tomatoes and feta and mashed it all into a sauce. Had it with some spaghetti and pesto. Was pretty darn good.

[@braoha123]

Yeah last time I heard of this feta-pasta thing I don't recall the baking of the pasta part, to me it would be better if it would go directly on the cooked pasta like a sauce, just like you did. Seems like a decent weeknight dinner to me!

[@Y0G0FU]

I usually add some Chicken or Shrimp to the Dish and turn the Tomatos and Feta into a creamy sauce. Its a fast, delicious and suprisingly cheap dish (i guess Feta prices vary immensly depending on where someone lives).

[@AvengerofGallifrey]

@@braoha123 Yeah, just add some more flavours in there and you're good. I remade it since I had a little sauce left over, but this time I put some vegetable bouillon, maggi sauce and parmegiano reggiano in there, and man did that level it up.

[@AvengerofGallifrey]

@@Y0G0FU Idk if I'd like shrimp in there but I'll definitely try out chicken at some point. Maybe swap the pasta water for chicken broth ors too

[@JustRichii]

Yeah he forgot to add the garlic cloves. It makes a big difference. If you love garlic like me, then a LOT of garlic cloves is also an option. Shrimp/Prawns also works wonders - you will need to cook it separately with some butter/garlic and add it at the end. I do agree with what Joshua says, that traditional carbonara IS easier to make - but the flavour is much more different to the feta which is a more sour and savoury taste. So if you like that type of flavour then this can be more superior to some.

[@marymaryquitecontrary9765]

I've had sushi bake here in Hawaii at potlucks for years & it's more of a dip served with wonton chips or small sheets of nori. NEVER eaten as a casserole. If it's gone viral recently I think it's someone who saw it & assumed it was a casserole not a warm dip...

Hi Josh, I want to say that I'm a chef myself, and I've always been watching your videos. I've taken so much inspiration and knowledge from all your content. As a chef, you should know how much food is being wasted in this industry and the food sector of the economy in general. When you come up with content like this, you are wasting so many resources that many people are literally starving for. I've just started watching that video, and you're coming up with a massive bucket of horrible sauce that you know from your experiences will taste bad, and no one will ever eat. If you want to make content like this, please consider making testing batches like you do in the restaurants. Food is not just pleasure, money, and satisfaction from eating. Food is a resource that we all need, and we don't have enough for everyone.

[@BrunoDeOliveira-j5v]

The smash burger taco is actually an amazing tip. Remember some people don't use or have a lot of recipes to use up their already bought tortillas so it's good to have random variety meals, especially simple ones, to let you spread out your ingredients in different ways while still scratching some of the itch of different cuisines. And I just found a brand of tortillas that are very low calorie.. so this might be actually a really cool idea to do the low carbs thing with all the fat in the patty to balance it out on a low carb day.

[@olandomer]

Okay - all respect to what you stand for as a chef (I'm an actor, and I feel strongly about my own art form just as you do your own). I love watching your videos and using the techniques you display to help improve my own culinary skills. And yes, social media like TikTok is often targeting the dopamine response our brains crave to get a quick fix. With that being said, why bash these creators for trying something they enjoy? Where's the harm in trying to have some fun in what they do while also giving encouragement to people who don't have the time or energy to dedicate to creating a fully realized meal? I use a lot of these TikTok videos as inspirations for what I make for my meal prep during the week. I get it - food is a cultural, almost spiritual thing for many, linking them with their familial and geographical roots; it deserves more respect in a lot of ways. And, hundreds of people dedicate their lives to perfecting the science and technique that goes into creating a unique and flavorful dish. But, that's what they're equipped to do - why diminish others for trying something they might enjoy just because it's not consistent with what you believe is good enough? I would've much rather seen a video that was Babish-style, encouraging people who try these recipes with advice on how to improve them to be closer to your own personal standard of acceptability and perfection. Use this idea to encourage those who are hesitant about upping their mealtime game or don't think it's feasible. That is something I'd love to see in regards to TikTok recipes.

[@andyramone]

Glad someone said it. Honestly this just feels like Chef Gatekeeping (as do a lot of his videos sadly, eg Air Fryers) and borderline snobbery. Experimenting and sharing recipe ideas is what creates a food culture. Just because it's through TikTok or any other social media doesn't make it less valid. Especially if it tastes good, which lets face it, most of these do.

[@shangrilai1990]

I've been looking for these comments. Things are feeling more and more judgemental in each video to the point I'm getting ready to unsubscribe.

I’m so glad to see someone else with this opinion. He has good ideas and cooking knowledge, but every of these recipes he starts with, “This is going to f@&@$g suck.” Then goes, “Not bad. But you suck for making this.” Or “Knew it, it sucks and no one should ever attempt this EVER!” I prefer the approach of, “Let’s see how this is. It’s terrible, but what if we changed THIS to improve it.” Or “This recipe isn’t any good. I’m wondering why they did it THIS way instead of THIS way?”

[@favouriteK]

Yes, thank you. I've been following Josh for a while now on and off tiktok cause he's fun to watch, but videos like this are starting to give me the ick. It's almost like that situation where a friend gets like a thousand followers on IG and is suddenly too good for you and is "famous" so their whole ass personality seems to change. I feel like Josh has been going through something similar. He's grown as a cook and appreciates food more vivaciously than before, and that's fine, but I think he forgets most of his audience are not chef-level home cooks or have the time, or access, or money to spend on certain things he uses. He's been giving me the ick recently, for lack of a better phrase :/ It's like he's shaming me for experimenting with food.

Gotta say, joshua, the fact that you give your measurements in metric *and* imperial units for everything you do in your videos is really awesome. Youre the only person ive seen do it that way, and its super nice because my gf finds all these other random recipes online and they’ll only be using metric units and, since neither of us know how to convert grams to cups on the fly, it makes her sad.

It easily cooks enough in the 10 minutes pasta cooks, Dont forget to add a spoon or two of pasta water to keep the sauce a sauce. Then you move all of the pasta into the pan, stir a bit and it's ready!

A better way to make the croissant dish is to split the croissant like a bagel, griddle (but don’t smash it) it face-down in honey butter, make your mortadella-burrata-pistach in the middle of it, like a sandwich. Then, instead of arugula (scoff), throw on some pickled cucumber. If you shave it lengthwise with a veggie peeler, it’s so thin that you can basically pickle it in five minutes with some white wine vinegar, salt and celery seed, and it’s brilliant for giving a little fresh crunch to sandwiches if you’re not in the mood for leaves of any kind. You definitely need some bitter to balance out the flavors here, and, if you’re feeling frisky, I highly recommend dicing some figs, dates or prunes onto the burrata, too.

Croissants in the waffle maker are crispy and caramelized. I like them better than the smashed version because the waffle iron creates more surface area. Of course I use a ton of butter. I sprinkle with sugar to get a brulé crunch. For savory, make it into a sandwich, then waffle it. Stale croissants have never tasted so good.

[@YS58329]

soaking things in water before frying is actually a commonly used technique in a lot of Chinese cooking, especially frying things that are originally dry like peanuts and dried fish, the soaking allows the dry food to be penetrated by water and then the water will be evaporated during the frying process, creating negative pressure to draw in the oil, making a more crispy result. This also prevents the food from burning prematurely before the insides cook or become crispy.

[@Nefariousbig]

With regards to the 'waterlogged' fries, I used to work at a chip shop in the UK and we soaked all our chips for a day or two before frying. I think if anything the trapped water can aid fluffiness and crispiness, it gets voided very quickly anyway and the rush of expanding and boiling water does wonders on the texture of the inside. Most important factor for crispiness is to let them steam off after the fry, don't cover them too quickly.

[@whyisitsodifficultomakeahandle]

the water actually drains out and is not trapped which we can see since the potato was flaccid. It is a common experiment we did back in 7th or 8th grade
