For me, the best thing about your channel (and your first book) is the fundamentals. Learning the concepts has made me much better at cooking off-script, improving/mixing up written recipes, and made me question why I'm buying certain things pre-made. Things like ketchup, pickles, fruit jam and tomato sauce are so easy and inexpensive to make, and I can make them with no questionable ingredients. I also really appreciate learning the difference between tomato sauce for a chicken parm dish vs pizza sauce. So similar but distinctly different. I can tell some of the things in this video would be much better with a few more ingredients, but I do appreciate the simplicity of the things that do *not* seem contrived, such as the tomato soup and tortillas. These are good fundamentals! I understand that you appeal to various audiences and you've made it big, and that is seriously awesome. Congrats on the success!

Saran wrap? That’s not the trick. To prevent ice crystals, you need to add some vanilla extract or mint extract etc (depends on what flavor of ice cream you’re making) that has alcohol in it. The alcohol prevents ice crystals from forming in this recipe. I’ve made this recipe multiple times before - Gemma from Bigger Bolder Baking made it super popular years ago, and she explained the purpose of the extract. I never had a problem with my results because of her recipe using that. Josh totally flubbed it by not mentioning that crucial ingredient.

I made the 3 ingredient chicken teriyaki, and the hardest part was trying not to add more ingredients like ginger and garlic. I had to wait longer than 15 minutes for the sauce to reduce, but when it did, it came out so so amazingly good. Chef's kiss❤

[@Inscribbles]

As someone who cooks often, the simplicity of bringing it down to 3 ingredients is wonderful. Lots of home cooks can get overwhelmed with too many ingredients and the basics are forgotten. As I have cooked award winning mac and cheese, panko bread crumb, gruyere and random cheese mixes, it's easy to forget it really is noodles, half and half, and cheese 😅. I enjoyed this video thoroughly and it has inspired me to go back to said basics. Besides, if I taste it and it needs something I want, I can add it and that is the fun part! But im not overwhelmed because "it's only 3 ingredients" feels just a bit less daunting. Thanks Josh!

[@SilverFoxCooking]

This was one of your better videos! At the end of the day just getting people to get in the kitchen to cook is the goal.

Josh i loved this video, seeing you cook simple home recipes and teach us along the way filled me with nostalgia for old cooking shows like Emeril legasse. The challenge of 3 ingredients is both to make a point of showing you dont have to overcomplicate things but also to build a solid foundation of technique and flavor, i think. I appreciate the suggestions that implied this lesson (add lime and cilantro to something for example) but also a video like this allows the individual ingredients to really shine and display their presence in a way that's digestible and simple. Hope to see more of this style!!!

[@one-eyepadidally8449]

One of my favorite ways to prepare certain veg makes them feel like a dessert they are so yummy, yet also uses minimal ingredients. Dressing steamed broccoli or boiled/steamed cauliflower with melted butter, salt, and lemon juice concentrate is WILDLY delicious! I challenge anyone who hates broccoli or cauliflower to try it like that and tell me it’s not amazing (romanesco is another veg to prepare/dress as such, if you are lucky enough to get it in your grocery store!). Another favorite where I could eat the veg like candy when it’s prepared a certain way is baby carrots and fresh green beans. You par boil them first (so they aren’t fully cooked yet), and then sauté them with butter, tons of fresh minced garlic, salt and a dash pepper. My favorite Italian restaurant repairs them at such and I was blown away when I first tried them! Lastly, this one is a bit more ingredients and not AS simple, but still super easy to make for such a huge flavor reward... This flavor combo goes back to cauliflower. Boil it, layer in a baking dish with plenty of butter, colby jack or cheddar cheese with plenty of sautéed minced garlic, thyme and just a dash of salt and pepper, and use some lemon juice concentrate for dipping or dashing on at the end just before eating each bite. If you happen to have parmesan cheese and bread crumbs, those are a nice extra to add on top of the bake if you’d like, but it’s not necessary to experience the previous flavor combo I just described which is delicious on it’s own. You bake it in a 400°f oven in a buttered casserole dish for 20-30 mins until cheese is melted/golden top. I hope you or others might try and enjoy! :)

Now I feel like I can whip up anything, in a pinch, with creative confidence highlighting simple, fresh, quality ingredients. I'm excited to start adding a few extras (i.e. basil to the tomato soup) and it's really simplified things for me...I feel like I could get through at least the first round of chopped lol.

[@Ash_Wen-li]

​​@@blairhoughton7918It's the same reason flour is sold separately. You can use it for multiple purposes and you can customize the soup to your preference. Plus in Japan, the ingredients to make dashi stock are basic pantry items so it's assumed many already have them I do think it exists though. I'm just not sure if the miso is dashi flavoured or it's actually meant to be eaten as the soup

[@Ash_Wen-li]

​​@@joerinaldi207​​It's a streamlined recipe meant to take 5 minutes with no pots and to be made while cooking other dishes. It's not meant to be proper from scratch miso soup (even then the dashi is the only real shortcut here) Biggest advantage is that you can make 1 portion in 5 minutes instead of having to reheat old soup and kill the flavour of the miso.

You avoid this by putting a thin layer of peanut butter on both sides which also allows the peanut butter to stick to itself from each peace of bread and form a seal that won't let the jelly shoot out on that first bite. TRY IT THIS WAY PEOPLE!

[@inferno3345]

Theres no way. Im gonna try this

[@daviddeane3163]

YOU'RE TELLIN' ME FOR FORTY YEARS I COULDA BEEN DOIN' THIS!? AIN'T NO WAY... :)

[@fakepistonnotrealuser9]

Also good to add something crunchy like pretzels, and/or sub jelly for something like Nutella or apple butter(my fav) . I made a speech at school about peanut butter sandwiches.

Wrap sausage with bacon and bake in the oven, you can also use small sausages but it'll take time, and right before it's done - about 10-15 minutes, brush it with barbecue sauce. And bake another 5 minutes. Done! Delicious 😋😋.

I am blown away by the amount of content in this video. A lot of effort on your part and very entertaining. Thank you so much.

[@haleywagner3144]

This video is great because it helps people who arent as confident cooking, practice skills and still make something worth eating without all the bells and whistles of 4+ ingredients. You can add more stuff if your comfortable, but its a great building block for some and spark of inspiration.

50 recipes in 35 minutes. Fantastic efficiency.

[@Aaronmillager]

I want something similar to this as a cookbook, where there are various recipes, but their total ingredients for all recipes do not total more than 20/25. For example, Eggs, tomatoes, flour, and garlic. Combine them one way, you can have an easy Pasta and sauce, but another way you have a VERY basic shakshuka (spices everyone should have so those get a pass I GUESS) or just take the flour eggs and butter/milk and you got a cake! I hate buying ingredients for a one off meal and then having half a bottle of something left over that I only know goes in the thing I just made but if there was a book catered around those 20/25 odd ingredients it would be cool to know how else it can be made without finding a new new recipe that uses half another bottle/box of an ingredient and the issue repeats itself.

[@johnnybear8139]

GREAT idea. Call it “The Only 20 Ingredients You’ll Ever Need” or something like that.

[@polinchikblinchik]

Thank you! Sometimes you don’t have an energy to come up with a big meal, or don’t want to have too big grocery store list.. that is a gem! Good job!

[@nerapsnart]

I'm a new viewer and I really like your videos. I'm a decent cook and really enjoy your knowledge and easy to follow ideas. This video is one of my favorites. Although I agree with other comments, it's a bit of a stretch to use a fully put together purchased item like a cake mix, but it's still useful information that I can incorporate into my own meals. And that's what counts.

[@MireilleAntone]

Those mozzarella sticks in wrappers are EXACTLY how my mom would make them every New Year! Except instead of mozzarella, we'd use cheddar so they don't melt as much (and have slightly more flavor than mozzarella), we just called them "cheese sticks". We dipped them in a very simple "thousand island dip" which was just mayo mixed with ketchup.

[@Andrew_BIake]

Maybe you can suggest meals (and make a video) you can freeze for home made ready meals for people who work long shifts? I work 12 hour shifts and factoring into account travel to and from work, I literally come in, brush my teeth and sleep... (factoring into account 4 hours of travel per day, that's less than 8 hours of sleep per day I work (I work interchangeably day and night shifts)).

[@DwayneShaw1]

pretty much any recipe you can buy commercially in a frozen meal will freeze well. A good option for easy fresh meals is to keep various proteins (individually portioned) in your freezer with a variety of frozen vegetables -- Beef and pork loin, chicken and fish, shrimp - diced onion and peppers, corn, peas, snow peas, broccoli, etc.. I generally start with frying a diced potato, when about 3/4's done (5 minutes or less), I'll add in a few frozen vegetable (5 minutes or less), then, at the end add in a diced protein - placed in the fridge to thaw the day before (1-3 minutes). In 20 minutes - prep, cook, and cleanup - ya got a freshly cooked meal in one pan (eat out of the pan, or heat up some tortillas in the microwave and eat like tacos, and your dishes are a knife, a fork, a spatula, and a pan) By switching up this handful of ingredients you can make a variety of stir fry meals in a few minutes. One night maybe fish and corn, the next night beef and snow peas, ... chicken and broccoli ... chicken and brussel sprouts ...etc .. (as stated above, I almost always start with a base of potato and onion .. good hearty meals, quick and budget friendly (you don't need high end cuts of beef for cutting into thin strips to stir fry)

[@briannagarrett5022]

A lot of things can be frozen and reheated. They have meal prep containers that are freezer safe. Just make whatever you like in a big batch so you can store some. A Simple great recipe get the el Mexican beef chorizo dice 1 onion throw them broth in a pan and let cook until the chorizo turns brownish in color then throw in diced chicken breast with some chicken bouillon seasoning add fresh spinach and let it cook. I usually serve this over white rice but it can be freezed. Another easy recipe 1 pound of turkey sausage. Brown it and set aside. Then take 2 boxes of chicken rice a Roni and brown the rice according to directions then add the water, seasoning, the cooked meat and some frozen mixed veggies. Finish cooking it based off of the directions. It's really good and super easy I usually put some lousiana on top of mine.

[@lauriem2053]

Lots of meals you can freeze like I used to make homemade lasagna and homemade pizzas. However, when I used to do 12 hour or 8 hour night shifts my best friend in the kitchen was a slow cooker! I would highly recommend looking into 3-5 ingredient slow cooker/Crockpot recipes. There are so many out there that are super easy with less exotic ingredients. Very simple and super delicious, healthy, inexpensive. I always have two crockpots and use them to this day. One smaller one larger.

I unsubbed months ago. Just come back once in a while to see what trainwreck of a video he made this time. Guess it's not just the algorithm, he is a book author now. He needs to save recipes for the next release. But given that I am not getting any recipe out of him that I would actually wanna try, there's no point in buying his books anymore. Buying his books was a way to support what he did on the channel, not the other way around.

Tip for my overwhelmed GF peeps: you don't need a mixer for the peanut butter cookies. Use the empty peanut butter jar to measure the sugar, dump it in a bowl with an egg, mix it with a fork, cook. I'm sure it's not as perfect as measuring and using a proper mixer, but I've got ADHD and sometimes I just need protein/fat/sugar bombs in the oven in 5 minutes or less!

[@jvallas]

Is mixing with a hand mixer any faster than a fork?

[@eclecticcode]

@@jvallas no idea! If you're aiming to get a fluffy mixture then yeah probably, if you're just mixing to combine then it might work out slower just because of the overhead of getting out the machine and getting the right setting and getting the mixture off the whisk attachment and cleaning it.
