Today was a learning experience, Frenchie and I both learned about the Italian occupation of France.

[@alexandresobreiramartins9461]

The DNA test kit is a good way to find out how stupid and evil the notion of race is, and that we're all a mishmash of "races".

[@lizafrench8455]

OMFG THERE IS NO BONE IN PORK BELLY. 20:15

[@Shinigami188]

Hi, love your funny and informational take on famous hobby cook Jamie Oliver. Have you heard about his war on chicken nuggets? Folding Ideas made an awesome video "Jamie Oliver's War on Nuggets" and i would appreciate your take on it.

[@grabble7605]

>Frenchy: French nickname! French cooking! French words sometimes! >DNA results: 'You're basicallly Italian, my dude.' >Also Frenchy: "All flash and no content" Man's such a solid chef, he perfectly roasted himself.

[@Nappa9000]

Kinda wild to see Frenchie's transformation over the year. Man went from "Wtf am I doing here?" to fully embracing the internet, all while still being Frenchie.

[@TheLocomono9]

He even did the woosh

[@nialabalgobin6016]

Cheers to Frenchie! It’s so good to see him comfortable making content now. These two chefs are friendship goals.

[@trigremlin]

It’s the casual outfit, they’ve established before that frenchie comes pre angry when he wears the chef’s smock😂

[@fckSashka]

he's a natural really

[@user-bo8eu1pc7y]

He also changed from French to Italian

[@gaming1zanagi-1999.]

The fact Frenchie said the same exact word as Uncle Roger almost at the same time when Jamie use Soba is like as if they both share the same exact mind XD

[@jonkleytonalvarez6456]

The horror of Jamie's culinary crimes is a universal experience

[@DG-jq7il]

Frenchy being Italian, Iberian, Irish, and North Western European makes sense, and Validates his French heritage. The English with their Irish soldiers controlled large parts of France, France has been in control of Italy several times, and the same with Spain.

[@innocentsmith6091]

The Irish category is just Celtic overall, so could include any British person, or it could be from Brittany, which was Britons who moved to that part of modern day France.

[@lilrisdley]

I thought Frenchy was Italian. he looks Italian.

[@ZarathosDaimaoh]

Spain under the Moors also invaded and occupied the south of France

[@hismajestylordsmenkhare5878]

Also all the wars intermingling Norse settlers in France all us Europeans are intertwined in some way or another

[@bhavjotsingh5820]

A few other possibilities: - The Celtic marker might be picking up Gaulish ancestry, the Pre-Roman Celtic inhabitants of France. Could also just be Breton ancestry - The Italian marker probably also picks up Roman ancestry. The Romans ruled over Gaul/France for nearly 5 centuries, so it would make sense if that's why it's such a large percentage - The North Western European marker is probably for Frankish/West Germanic heritage, which would be why it extends into Germany/Benelux/etc - The Iberian marker might be East Germanic heritage, i.e the Goths and Vandals. These peoples controlled a few areas of France during the decline of Western Rome before being kicked out into Iberia or assimilated into the local population. Not too sure about this one, though. There are quite a few alternative explanations for that one Also, keep in mind that the two most well preserved lines of descent in Frenchie's DNA will be his direct paternal (via his Y-chromosome) and direct maternal (via mitochondrial DNA) lines. For all other ancestors, the further back you go, the less likely any individual ancestor contributed anything to his genome. Take these results with a grain of salt

[@lmpeters]

There's a TV show from the 2000's called "Begin Japanology", which did an entire episode on ramen, and one segment featured a ramen shop in Japan that was operated by an American chef. As I recall, he made it stand out by incorporating French broth-making techniques, and it was a hit with the locals.

[@mfaizsyahmi]

Can't get enough of Begin Japanology with the iconic host, the experienced broadcaster ✨Peter Barakan✨

[@timmynoir]

Ivan Ramen! He’s got a ramen shop in New York now.

[@criticallol3039]

The cruel, unusual and hilarious punishment of Frenchy continues 😂

[@MeganSin]

Also have you thought about showing frenchie uncle Roger’s reaction to alex of Frenchguycooking fried rice video? I would kinda like to see one french man’s reaction to another French man’s Asian dish with his Asian friend. Like a weird food inception.

[@ChefBrianTsao]

Yep!

[@TheFonzieCommunity]

@@ChefBrianTsaoyes I second this!!

[@maxhaibara8828]

He also made a French-inspired ramen in his latest ramen series.

[@andrewwight6875]

I thirds this

[@sophiarose8018]

When Frenchie looked distraught hearing Nigel got attacked, and was so concerned, it immediately got my heart strings. He laughed it off, but you could tell he cared.

[@_Bosley]

As far as I'm concerned BBC still stands for Bad British Chefs when it comes to making authentic Asian food lol...... Chef Frenchie gets so triggered I love it! Great reaction as usual guys!! (edited for spelling errors lol)

[@rachelblack9024]

I love the "falling off the bone " when he is using pork belly😂😂

[@JupitersTears]

I didn't even think of that

[@user-tn8rl1lc8l]

He probably meant to say “fork tender”

[@user-sm2ql7nq4l]

You two have amazing chemistry. You guys need a channel on its own with the two of you. Doing stuff like you did with Guga.

[@ChefBrianTsao]

[@user-sm2ql7nq4l]

@@ChefBrianTsao Thanks, Brian. Will check that out.

[@chidianuforo3670]

If you want to make lasagna, you can't use spaghetti, just like if you want to make ramen, you can't use soba noodles.

[@annak8755]

But you can use the lasagna ingredients to make a very nice pasta bake. As long as it is tasty and you don't claim it is authentic and try to teach people how to do it, you'd be fine. In other words, had he made that just for his family, he would have been golden, but the moment he put it on TV, internet or a menu, he was open to criticism.

[@rahn45]

At least spaghetti and lasagna noodles is made from the same ingredients... I think it would be more like trying to make lasagna using... I don't know tortilla bread.

[@russellfrancis813]

Yeah. All he had to do was use ramen noodles, marinate the chashu, and remove the spinach ball, and he would have had something approaching ramen.

[@Gilly-bean]

I recommend not skipping the sponspor message, this is the first time I'm hitting 👍 at the Ad Spot... the whole "How French is Frenchy saga" was amazing, extraction B roll had me rolling! Awesome chefs!

[@ChefBrianTsao]

🙏

[@blisswang957]

funny part is that if Jaime used his egg marinate on his pork belly instead of just a teaspoon of miso, that pork will taste like bomb after 4-6 hrs (probably just increase the amount since he put 3 liter of water). and he can use that broth for ramen broth, and add in the miso when he assemble as the tare. So he already have the recipe for the pork marinate. He can also save the sesame oil for aroma oil when he assemble. So technically with the same ingredient he had, he could've made proper ramen.

[@jorgecorea7528]

Only thing missing would be the ramen noodles, can't make ramen with soba.

[@Muscu666]

Well, I'm French, born and raised, from French parents, born and raised, and my DNA test gave me the same kind of result, so I think that proved the point: Frenchie is indeed French.

[@TheBluePhenom]

If there's a video of Rachael Ray making something French, we NEED that reaction complete with full French disgust😂

[@Russman67]

Okay it's safe to say that Frenchie is my favorite British chef. 🤣

[@pauldenamiel]

Now you’re talking

[@l0velycry452]

That ad read 😂 the Frenchie and Brian brotherhood is so real, acting like older and younger siblings lmao

[@user-kx6qw2nd8v]

Frenchie and yourself make even greater reaction videos- the way you feed off each other is hilarious! 😂

[@RJH_LIL]

Yay! Another collab. Love ALL THREE of you, but Frenchie is the cutest one.

[@JakkiPi]

I just realized that what he actually made was "saimin", not ramen! There are less limitations to making saimin and the ingredients are more locally sourced. My epiphany for today!

[@patricknez7258]

I love how Frenchie looks enraged in every thumbnail 😂

[@4C51]

Jamie specifically said "Mirin Condiment" AKA Aji-mirin which is basically a cheap tastes-like-mirin product that isn't fermented

[@danielpizana3682]

Frenchie's temperament has made me think he was Italian on a few occasions lol. Good to know there was a reason. lmao. 🤣

[@paladonis]

If you do make a French inspired Ramen, perhaps the broth from a French onion soup could be a good starting point? Or do a riff of some Ramen beef bourguignon?

[@skechyassmofo]

That's an amazing idea!!!

[@moritze.2449]

Just Cook a good Broth. Stop calling random stuff you See on tiktok.

[@electronsauce]

I moved to Japan 8 months ago. The ramen here is next level and its simply because of a solid stock / broth. It's clean, full of flavor and if you try to take a bite of ramen when its immediately served and you don't cool the noodles or broth off, you should scald your mouth. Everything else is up for grabs. Basics.

[@harraldschmitt9113]

😂😂😂😂😂the new intro killed me right off the bat. Man, you guys are great together

[@ChefBrianTsao]

😁

[@deborahhamilton9388]

Frenchie's shock at DNA results the reason I've not yet done MyHeritage😂. Also J.O.'s ramen bowl srsly traumatizing, thanks for the vid so we could all watch together❤️‍🩹❤️❤️‍🔥

[@Drazex_0]

major reason I love the frenchie vidoes is, you're both having fun happy and enjoying yourselves. makes it very fun to watch yall having a great time reacting to videos together :)

[@ShiroKage009]

Ramen is named after the noodles, and he added Soba. He could have called this soup soba. It's an actual thing.

[@clothokaftan]

for anyone wondering, ramen noodles are basically a type of egg or potato starch noodles, while soba noodles is a type of buckwheat noodle. soba is typically served cold and has a very different flavor profile compared to ramen noodles. its practically impossible to mix them up even as an amateur home cook, this is beyond rookie mistake levels of bad.

[@spwolftech]

Love the vids, also love the fact you make the links to the original vids easy to see and find. Thank You for that!

[@IAMDOLWOTA]

Hey, I actually do have a fave British chef! Heston isn't known for following rules, but he does a lot of research and understands why the rules exist and why people do/did the things before challenging the methods. And whatever foodTV he did, taught people food science and some history (not spread misinformation like Gordo) and inspired people to get creative and adventurous with food (not dump random shit where they don't belong like Jammy Oliveoil).

[@lilyayanami]

Just finished watching Uncle Roger's video where he eats rocky mountain oysters and then I see the thumbnail for this video. I sense a theme for today 😂

Would love to hear Frenchie's thoughts on the movie ratatouille 😂

[@ChefBrianTsao]

Tune in this Friday hehe

[@OilRigWorker26]

Man, I love chef Pauls reactions. When he saw the wrong kind of noodle going in... priceless.

[@Slimcognito2012]

Regarding what was talked about before the ad break - there are 3 basic components of a ramen stock. Those three components are dashi, tare and aromatic oil. Dashi is your basic stock and its the thing that takes the most time, its what you're going to put your bones and aromatic veggies into to extract those flavors. The goal is a clear unseasoned stock. The reason its unseasoned is the second component is Tare, which is pretty much the seasoning component - if made right this stuff is like a salt bomb - and its what ramen is typically classified by (shio ramen uses a salty secondary broth, shoyu uses soy sauce, miso uses a salty miso secondary broth). You usually use way less tare than dashi in a bowl of ramen, like a shot's worth for a big bowl of soup. The third component is an aromatic oil that floats on top of the broth. These things are prepared separately until the bowl is being assembled. A good resource if you're interested in making your own ramen is Way of Ramen here on youtube. Some good recipes and insights to get you started.

[@mulldrifterz6469]

The meddle of a good reaction channel is enjoying a video you have seen before and still enjoy it

[@carlos_herrera]

What part of France does Frenchie come from? When you're talking about linguistics, Iberian can also mean Basque, and if he comes from anywhere along the west coast of France, there have been connections since ancient times between Ireland and Wales and Bretagne, the Gironde, Galicia in Spain, etc.

[@hadeslair666]

Please for the love of god! You two never stop doing these reaction videos, they are always great and keep getting better!!!!

[@movalboy]

Regarding low sodium soy: Aloha Shoyu makes a phenomenal low sodium Hawaiian style soy sauce. It's not vinegary and great for seasoning and adding umami to so many different recipes.

[@rudytrujillo4197]

Ok, first off Frenchie is that dude I need to get hammered with and fall down some stairs. Second, Chef Bri, I will eventually make it to Mission Social one day, but you gotta promise to let me jam with you and your band one time AND make you some bomb ass chili.

[@donwald3436]

I think Jamie saw tenkasu (tempura coating bits) and thought it was pork crackling lol, same as he thought sambal was chilli jam.

[@brei2670]

There are actually different kinds of sesame oil. There are the lighter ones that you can actually cook with, and then there's the dark ones you only use for flavoring. I got into the same argument with someone using sesame oil to cook and then I spent a little time researching it. I do think it's pointless to use the lighter ones, though, because they're not very flavorful but needlessly expensive.

[@FumikoNobuoka]

Just watched Uncle Roger and Cowboy Ken collab. You two NEED to react to this. I LOVED IT!

[@JAF30]

There are a few good British chefs, Sorted Food for example. But Jamie should have called this "Asian Themed noodles"

[@KibaSnowpaw]

At 25:15, the phrase "it's all flash and no content" was mentioned, which ironically reminds me of a past relationship. My ex-girlfriend's was all flash and no content.

[@Taabituubi]

The face of betrayal for a moment when Frenchie said Brian ordered his spinach sent me HARD

[@HDTMYF]

Fun story.. and by fun I mean sad. A very popular local establishment in my town updated their dinner menu and added ramen to the menu. Would you believe it really says "soba noodles". The head chef of this place watches Jamie Oliver and sells it to people. I did put in a feedback form "Ramen uses ramen noodles".

[@adamcockcroft]

18:51 just to answer that question, he did a series called Jamie’s Great Britain travelling and exploring different cultures and cuisines that are in the UK . The van got turned into a portable pub called "the Cock in Cider"

[@frederikgiguere12]

[@jacobwoodard818]

soba is used in ramen that has thin broth like shoyu or shio the noodle varies some forms of ramen uses udon noodles in this case if his broth is thin soba is accurate

[@xxgoldmansionxx]

the soba mistake is the equivilent of going to a car dealership and somehow end up with a fishing boat

[@margaesperanza]

I love how Frenchie wore the same shirt from the gold leaf steak video, so it looked like you played the same video twice!

Chef Brian and Frenchie, much love! It'd be so dope if you did a vid on using layering flavors in your stock for Korean Doenjjangchigae. I love making it but I feel like I could do more to make it better. That soup does not get enough love, it's the cool cousin of miso that smokes and rides a motorcycle.

Its the premise of mother sauces and the derivatives of mother sauce in regards to broth then other preperations made with said broth

That "calling people by the house they live in" used to be a thing in Finland also. And to some extenct still is in rural areas. Eg. in the village I come from there was this old lady who was called by the house and not her actual surname and I learned her actual name at the funeral.

That truck is a mobile pub complete with wood-burning oven. He built it for a series called Jamie's Great Britain a number of years ago. It is IMO his very best show. He is great when he stays in his lane. He traveled around Britain, met the locals, and cooked traditional foods from the area with of course a chefy twist. I have the cookbook for the series and it has some great recipes. That pub is da bomb but I would hate to keep petrol in it!

Another thing about the miso being added too early and into boiling or simmering liquid is that it kills the fermentation of the paste, which is where that signature miso flavor comes from. Essentially all you’re doing if you add miso to a stock is just adding bean paste, which does absolutely nothing for flavor.
