People keep asking for easier recipes when, in my opinion, Josh’s channel is not here to do that. Seems to me like he is here to show us the real techniques to make the best possible tasting dishes that we know and love. Keep it up Josh!

[@catherineaustin2]

Yeah, I can't help but agree. There are already channels out there that do plenty of that. The market is well saturated with plenty of chefs that make easier recipes.

I like how he blindfolds the taste testers like they might maybe feel a squished sammich and go "oh yes, JW's classic presentation technique, a flattened sandwich that is now cold, this might maybe be his homemade stuff"

[@seanmatthewking]

Lmao yeah, which tastes better, the food that’s been sitting in a bag for 2 hours or the one that is fresh, twice as tall and very obviously the one your boss made. But I’m sure his is better because I had a spicy chicken sandwich from KFC a few months ago, and it wasn’t great.

[@CalebCalixFernandez]

"KFC uses MSG." At this day and age, it should be common knowledge that everything mass-produced industrial food contains MSG.

[@stapuft]

more like all GOOD food has it in it, seeing as its 100% natural and in most foods that people find delicious, like essentially all meat, mushrooms, and tomatoes to name a few.

[@HeavyMetalMike]

@@stapuft yep, just like any other ingredient, not to be overdone but it really does amp things when you start using it. I made Josh's turkey with MSG butter and smoked it, it was popping

Josh can you make a "but easier" series where you take really hard dishes and simplify them but that also still taste amazing Edit: Since I've noticed that there are some little dickheads complaining how "but easier" could turn into "but lazier" I really wanna discuss that first of all: "But Easier" means something that still requires some kinda work to do but it doesn't need god like skills of an professional chef with 25 years of cooking experience, also I really want to make a goddamn recipe that doesn't require *cHiNeSe BlAcK vInEgAr* or *GoDjAjOng* (that thing that looks like a darker tomato paste Yes I know I spelled it wrong) and basically ingredients that obviously not every country has considering I live In the poorest country in the European union (that doesn't mean I'm poor ok?)

I think the reason I resonate so much with Josh's cooking is because of the attitude. He knows when he's side-stepping things for better flavor or better texture and doesn't apologize for it, just leans into it even harder because hey, it's his food and that's what he wants to do. Gotta love it.
