[@joshuacreel3000]

so i SHOULD eat the yellow snow?

[@leodipaolo1890]

Lol

[@MrBeatboxmasta]

It's not yellow. It's just the pee refracting in the ice crystals. :P

[@TheRealMrBeard]

Watch out where those huskies go & do not eat that yellow snow.

[@troywilliams3906]

+MrBeatboxmasta L

[@psul42]

and pay no attention to where the huskies go.

[@Snugglypatchvids]

My favorite part of every video is googling who I am when making the dish.

[@KaijuRamen54]

😂😂😂

[@leosid9609]

Lol

[@JeffGloverArts]

Chef John, I just found your channel and website and I am now totally addicted to Food Wishes! Where have you been hiding the past, what? 8 years?!? I guess I should have checked the kitchen. Thanks for all the great recipes served with the kind of smart-ass wit I appreciate. My wife also thanks you since I do the cooking at our house and now she gets to eat stuff that tastes ... well, a lot better than before. Thank you, thank you thank you!

[@JeffGloverArts]

Oh, and who are the 23 dopes who didn't like this?!?

[@nasem7470]

Around the outside, around the outside, around the outside

[@christinab.2864]

That should be a bunt

[@18Everything]

lol is it me or does that sound like yg song?

[@TanTanRahlf]

Without Me - Eminem

[@dobrilabijelic1631]

"Buffalo Gals" by Malcolm McLaren 1982, Eminem references it in "Without Me". Chef John and I must have older siblings (WAY older) that would play the original ... we are both 21 :)

[@martzfartz]

Hey eyes, don't you ever get tired of being wrong?

[@Kugaine]

When I'm really lazy I like to just put a bottle of Powerade in the freezer and shake it about every 30 minutes until it's chunky enough. Maybe drink a little bit of it beforehand so there's room for it to shake.

[@adoresessy101]

That's... actually a good idea. I'll try this with a lemonade or some other drink lol. I'm so lazy to even boil water and mix it with a fork. Whoop.

[@NessaRossini...]

Same here...too lazy. I like the frozen lemonade idea in a bottle, just shake. :)

[@rbwirth12]

I'd go for a shot of gin over it rather than vodka, but you are the Harley Quinn of your vodka and gin.

[@drkjk]

I was thinking gin as well.

[@AmarettoEyes]

hehehe.....great.

[@nathanfielure4305]

Does Donald Trump of your rum works?

[@Dubbadee124]

if he does rump roast you can be the donald trump of your roasted rump

[@samanthagilmore8530]

Chef John makes me so happy! Amazing food at the best times !

[@Chubunater]

I love lemon flavored stuff, IM SO GONNA TRY THIS

[@Nairod2]

This is going to sound incredible... but my sister burnt a sauce pan boiling water.

[@floweringmandevillavine2310]

I know someone who did that too. They forgot about it & it turned the pot black inside lol

[@leodipaolo1890]

Bruh...

[@Nairod2]

Flowering Mandevilla Vine same story, different outcome. the water was for pasta so she put oil and salt on it. not only did the pot got black and crusty. the kitchen was white in smoke.

[@christinebonfiglio3040]

boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

[@floweringmandevillavine2310]

***** WOW! :-P Gawd it's kinda scary that just trying to cook & making a mistake or forgetting about something could cause a disturbing & possibly dangerous outcome! One time my cousin was sent to the store for a head of lettuce & came back w/cabbage & family members teased her so bad she never tried to cook anything ever again. Ever. She's the one who messed up the boiling water

[@dishouttang3000]

I'm a simple man, I see a new video on foodwishes I thumbs up.

[@renardgrise]

I guess I'm going to have to go get some fresh lemons on the way home today!

[@erinnkemp]

Guess, I'll knock on my neighbors door for a bag of lemons. : )

[@kuroholic]

no one makes me wanna cook more than chef john

[@HugoHugunin]

I always add the tiniest pinch of salt. It slightly lowers the freezing temperature and brightens the flavour just a bit. Always guarantees a sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia when eating.

[@AlexTheKing11]

Chef John, you're a real inspiration but I have two questions: how many fork mixes did it take for you to get to the desired texture, and who taught you how to cook?

[@potatohead3389]

nice dad story:)

[@CloudyDaze]

This has been my food wish for years. LITERAL YEARS.

[@nelle541]

in Jamaica we call this a snow cone lol....can't wait to try this!!

[@nelle541]

That's our snow cone lol. Honestly, once it includes it's shaved iced, we consider it a snow cone lol

[@gavinwoodard9178]

+TheNormalOddball he even says snow cone in the video...

[@dahlei]

"I see a couple of tiny seeds that got through the lemon squeezer, which reminds me of something funny my father told me a long time ago..." I totally thought that story was going to take a darker turn.

[@bllybao]

4:34 give it a proper "forking" :))))))))

[@evazdivaz]

Being a New Yorker and seeing this, you have inspired me to make this!

[@Saratrooper]

Oooohhhh, I'm definitely going to have to try this out - my fiance loves lemon food stuffs. Plus it looks perfect for all the hot weather we've been having lately.

[@bootblacking]

Alternatively: add vodka along with the lemon juice and put into an ice cream maker for sorbet.

[@InTheKitchenWithJonny]

I wish I had this right now. So refreshing 😋

[@t500010000]

I have been making this by accident everytime I make too much lemonade lol. Great lemon ice story btw.

[@TreatFactory]

looks so refreshing 😋

[@dougeastman]

Yes Chef John, that is literally, exactly what I was thinking.

[@katiek1856]

I tried making shaved ice this weekend. Major fail! I am so glad you posted this!

[@CanuckJim]

This can also be made with crushed blackberries. The berries give the final product an almost creamy texture. Oh and crushed pear slices as well as long as they're VERY ripe.

[@jeremyfinch2835]

You are the Reince Priebus of your lemon squeezes. I honestly laughed hard! Great show, chef!

[@SJohnsonVoiceOvers]

nice Eminem reference. Maybe next time you can make some (wait for it) Vanilla Ice. haha

[@dgillespie13]

Fresh cold water, not to be confused with stale cold water. Good tip, thanks John.

[@erinnkemp]

I made your cantaloupe cayenne sorbet! It was delicious! Use two pinch cayenne. It was too spicy for some folks if you use the recipe amount (like I did). I recommend the recipe. I can't wait to try this recipe . I'll let you know how it turns out!

[@curtisleow]

If you've never had lemon ice before, urine for a treat!

[@thebaconfromhell]

Pee jokes were a missed opportunity for this video.

[@spidaminida]

Please could you do an episode on your favourite drink recipes? Whiskey sour is about my favourite thing in the world, pretty sure you have other good ones up your sleeve!

[@SoulFoodCooking]

Looks great!! I have to try it :-)

[@ninjapupftw]

I don't make most of these recipes. I am mostly here for Chef John's commentary haha

[@mckenna8663]

Oh my goodness !! YES !!

[@Smullet90]

I have watched hundreds of Chef John's videos... and I don't cook.

[@SkanRashkae]

"hey eyes, you ever get tired of being wrong" 5:42

[@jacobdon2431]

So simple and easy, will deff give it a try!

[@kaganstamps6261]

Such an awesome recipe. You rock Chef John!

[@suewoo5]

my fave ice

[@shauna-leesmith9786]

Round the outside, round the outside lol. I wish we had lemons in Jamaica.

[@nejojohnson]

Yes to the vodka! I also like cracked black pepper on the top, as well.

[@naeema.verygoodkayani7146]

mouth watering

[@christinab.2864]

I wonder if it can turn a slush if you put it into a coke bottle shake it put in the freezer and pour it out? King of random trick

[@donalso]

I once put some Irish Mist into a wine skin for a day of skiing on Sunshine in Banff.40 below that day. On the way up my mustache had rather long icicles attached.My buddy and I stopped after a while for a drink. The Irish Mist turned into this wonderful slushie. That was cool! Pun equally intended.

[@AustiuNoMatterWho]

you see... i burn water. well actually i burn the pan because my 2 loves are cooking and video games and some games last for longer than the water can but on the other hand i have my favorite chef so even when i do this, i clean it up, try again and eat amaziing. thank you chef John

[@dwaynewladyka577]

Looks awesome! It would be cool if you used a mixture of lemon, lime and orange juice and zest.

[@xbalraj]

that's a nice zest tool.

[@MSI2k]

A proper forking.. ayyyyy

[@Ahbkz]

Mmm... Yellow snow 😍

[@hack4151]

can't wait to try

[@enricorpg]

No cayenne? Are you really chef John?

[@rachelsweets]

Love it

[@emkay7233]

around the outside x3 lmaooooo

[@viperhalberd]

How do you keep this once it's made? I get the idea it would turn to a solid block of ice if I left it in the freezer without "a freezin' and a forkin'" it all the time.

[@Chemeleon15]

once it's made, the sugar content and shape of the ice crystals will stop it from freezing into a block unless you let it melt slightly.

[@daniireland1985]

Im always amazed how the most simple recipes you do seem... idk, grand. you definitely need to upload daily for us obsessed fatties. :D

[@brettaugarten8445]

Making this tomorrow!

[@DesiDuzzit]

Need to try! This looks great, especially with this California heat that feel as if it's trying to kill me haha.

[@MamaMittens]

Yum!!

[@pabloricardodetarragon2649]

I do not use the fork technique. I use a good strong 1/2 gallon plastic jug with a large lid. I put 5 o 6 stainless steel marbles, and I shake the 1/4 or 1/3 of gallon liquid every 30 mn.

[@anthonygulick]

Great video chef John!

[@phoshizzl3]

I'm so high. I LOL'ed so hard at the whisky sour joke

[@maggiepadron4320]

+Theresa Vercide I laughed at how you said he laughed by saying "LOL'ed"

[@URKKfdf]

If I make a large amount of this, and leave it into the freezer, will it maintain its texture?

[@mariegracie8455]

Hi C.J. Can you tell me if I were to use a sugar substitute such as Splenda would this recipe still work ? I can't wait to try making this. Thanks 😀👍🇺🇸

[@janekim5137]

as much as I really want to make these--like seriously, my mouth is craving for it ryt now...Ufortunately, our freezer is extremely full as of the moment. Welp, maybe next tym.

[@FeelYourMeal]

Refreshing

[@toddweller]

Mmmmmm Yum!

[@Tipper1941]

Why does the sugar water mix need to cool before adding lemon juice? Curious.

[@garrettducat5769]

why should you wait until the mixture cools before adding the lemon juice? also, if you boil the water then don't you get invert sugars?

[@Omar-rd2uw]

Chef john can you show different recipes for steak

[@DaniPanti11]

Question: if we are saving it for later and we stick it in the freezer, it'll solidify.. so once we're ready to eat more after that point, what needs to be done? Or is it only all to be eaten pretty much right away? Thanks!

[@manojborude2145]

Lol his way of talking and explaining things!! He is funny.

[@ahhhfakemonsters]

I wish my freezer was big enough to make this

[@ryangt]

we do these in our family but do it with rum and have rum slushies

[@Stoneman4]

could I freeze the recipe fully overnight and put ot thru a food processor with the cheese shredder attachment? I would break the lemon ice first of course .

[@VladPasculescu]

Chef John, what type of lemon juicer do you have? I bought a few different brands and returned every single one.

[@stephisteti]

watching as I eat a pint of gelato

[@nicememebro69]

Hi chef John

[@Utharas]

Is there a reason you don't freeze it solid and then put the ice in a blender?

[@roky1337]

Hmm, thinking out loud maybe add a splash of limoncello in the water before you put it in the freezer? The alcohol would make the end product even more "snowey" and the lemons would make it even more "lemoney" ...

[@UseAbuseReuse]

Hey Chef John, if I make this with limes, would I still need to use any extract?

[@bluejuiseritsma]

Hi Chef!! This looks delicious! Do you have a recipe for DIY KIND bars?

[@melaniemarquez5056]

very excellent forking skills.... :D

[@megantay2513]

Please do a mango granita recipe!

[@rebeccamartino3627]

This is one of the only recipes that I can recall Chef John not using cayenne pepper

[@zippadeedooday]

This would be really good with peach, too. Just reduce the amount of sugar.

[@HardWayFarms]

The Dad reference puddled me up a bit, and the vodka reference made me laugh out loud!!

[@lauraharmon6508]

"Watch out where the huskies go. Don't you eat that yellow snow!" Oh, I see someone else on here is a Zappa fan.

[@theneonryu9679]

I want lemon ice

[@spokehedz]

This needs a shot or two of Limoncello mixed all up in there.

[@freemenownrifles8814]

bet the farm your dad is one proud dude....

[@layneathebutterfly4959]

No not vodka lemonchello!😋

[@andreaslied7077]

you had me at "proper forking"

[@warmedscissors1]

Henry's kitchen would appreciate your measurements :-)

[@JonasTheLundh]

What kind of cup, chef? Teacup, coffecup, U.S cup or U.K cup?

[@peepslostsheep]

US measuring cup.

[@asdfrozen]

Yellow snow!
