But faster is pretty fun. Looking forward to seeing more. And the fact that Josh can do it in a “but better” way is just proving, MAKE IT YOURSELF!!!

[@seanplaysgames2551]

my guess is that most of why the "but better" versions are so good is that he makes them at home, he doesnt even have to make such a effort cuz lliterally just cooking this at home makes a huge difference

I agree with this comment, maybe slow it down, and give us a bit more detail / tips on how to speed things up. I was stressed for you watching this

[@chocolateyCOOKIES]

I loved this because as much as his other videos are edited to show the perfect takes and therefore really pleasant to watch, I could relate to so many parts of this video as someone who cooks at home regularly; like how he started running out of counter space, how the oil didn't heat initially, and missing the egg dredge. Thanks for giving us a window into your struggles and learnings too!

[@samfitz9]

I would definitely never be able to cook this fast but I love the chaotic energy of this series.

[@m4rr563]

I love how he read the comments and saw that a lot of people were complaining that his methods took too long and fast food has to be fast. Now he is showing that you can make better food in the same amount of time.

[@Airborne92]

Unfortunately one could argue that he was still slower because the fast food was ready in at least half the time, it just boils down to drive time but still, better than what I can personally do

[@m.e.p.7223]

but still, taking into account shopping, cleanup, and the fact that not everybody has as organized a kitchen as joshua does, it's debatable. it was a fun video for sure, but it doesn't exactly prove anything about the actual timeframe someone could make this dish in. hell, just having a neat, big kitchen where you know exactly where everything is cuts SO much time down when you're cooking, and josh already knew exactly what he was doing, even if he didn't know the recipe 100% and forgot some things. i'd argue that ordering takeout is still probably faster than the average person being able to make orange chicken from scratch.

[@dtemp132]

Fun video. Doesn't include time doing the dishes. I do dishes for 20-30min every day and it's the worst part of my day. The best part of takeout isn't the food quality or saving time cooking (which I enjoy), it's no dishes.

[@alfredgomez3128]

He still goes extra in making everything from scratch, when people have trouble with assembling and cooking the meat. His cooking videos are still not true basic starters, they don't encourage cheating when the restaurant industry clearly does. I could use the chicken recipe and add Panda Express Orange Sauce....or buy pre-made Orange Chicken and add the same sauce. The latter's a good start if you've never fried anything and need quick practice.

[@m4rr563]

[@MS-fx5yf]

I really like how you prove it can be made at home faster, cheaper, and fresh. Having worked in Foodservice for 24 years… and being an absolute stick in the mud when, it comes to authenticity - I feel that authenticity is far more critical than speed. Going to head to the Asian market to pick up some missing key items we can’t find back home, before heading home to try out your recipes. We used to order from Mr Nings, but they have since closed, and there’s been no replacement since.

[@ronlongwellphoto]

Love your channel, Josh! I'm 57 years old and love to cook, and I've been having a blast making your recipes over the last month. You've convinced me that I NEED a stand mixer. Not everything has turned out like yours. My Cashew Chicken doesn't have the color yours does, but then again, I can't find black vinegar or dark soy sauce locally, so maybe that's it. I'm making this orange chicken for my son and his girlfriend tomorrow night. We'll see how it goes.

[@Meuduso1]

Alright, "But Faster" may be a bit less educational but still very entertaining so I like it! I really enjoy that Joshua didn't train to make make the orange chicken like 5 times before to optimize everything and that it's a genuine try, so yeah I'd love to see more "But Faster" episodes

[@hockey_hungry]

Haha yea I love his vids, and really enjoyed this one as a one off type of thing but I would much rather watch the but better orange chicken. I want to learn how to make it as good as possible haha.

[@evage99]

Agreed on the second point, I was pleasantly surprised that he "messed up" his usual recipe a bit and said "Meh, it's fine" while frantically doing the stack-the-dishes kitchen shuffle. Much more relatable! xD

[@kingdanett4043]

I've been following a lot of your recipes recently and what I've found is that for the first 1 or 2 times you make the food as an at home chef its easier to do everything step by step and then once your comfortable with the recipe it's so much easier to do it all at once. If you start doing multiple things at the same time for a brand new recipe it just stresses you out and you tend to let things burn.

I like this new series. One small thing I'd like to see is even if you get the restruant food first and back home before you finish making it, to still make it. You could be like, sure it took 5 or 10 minutes longer at home to cook, but it's still better even tho we technically lost.

[@darkxzero13]

I like the concept, would love to see more! Personally, I'd benefit more if the show focused on techniques to be quicker and efficient. We all understand that papa will be fast, but going over the skills to practice and get up to speed would be huge. The whole racing thing is fun but feels like we get the same effect if Josh just tries to keep everything under 30-40 minutes vs a stopwatch, with the taste tests at the end. He can stop the timer to go over details of how/why he's doing something. I'd like to see more of him talking about how he would prepare and lay out his kitchen beforehand to go faster. Setting up would probably still be faster than me putting things away, getting dressed, and finding what I want to order tbh. Time saving/flavor boosting tips like preparing the chicken for 5-10 minutes the night before would also be helpful.

[@aurifulgore]

It definitely felt like "how fast can /I/ make this". And he's a trained chef. 😂😅 sorry Josh but I have no hope nor the desire to run around like Speedy Gonzalez Weissman in the kitchen here, especially with sharp knives and splattering oils. Doesn't make the cooking process very appealing when it's adding another type of stress.

[@kiltedcripple]

Yes, prepping ahead where you can is key. Like if i know I'm making saucy dishes for more than just me, I prep the sauces the day before. Especially useful for sandwich sauces or noodle sauces. I make stock 3 or 4 times a year and jar it, so if I'm planning something that will need stock, I pull one out of the freezer the day before to let it thaw. I pull beef out the day before and salt brine it, especially steaks and roasts. If I'm braising, I might only salt the meat 10 to 15 minutes ahead. I make seasoning blends ahead to cut down on reaching for individual spices while cooking. Definitely useful for Indian and Mexican dishes. And definitely, if you're deep frying or boiling, take those big pots of liquid started while you prep veggies or start carbohydrates because they take forever to get up to temp.

[@paigelauryn4328]

I agree! I woukd have loved to see a walk through of how he cut & deseeded the chilli so efficiently

[@dianabriones2971]

Ethan Chlebowski (here on KZbin) just did the type of video you described, but to make a Chick-fil-A sandwich. He didn't rush the process and still had time to explain his steps/recipe.

[@mcbedo6568]

the problem is, if he did that people would still complain. A lot and I mean a lot of his recipes call for preparing things ahead of time and all people could do was complain about how they "don't have enough time to do smth like that" Imagine wanting to be a home cook while also juggling a busy life but not wanting to put in the minimum possible effort needed to achieve that. I've noticed that those same set of people always lack a certain amount of common sense. Like how they thought buying bulk ingredients for "just a sandwich is stupid" when you can literally use all the leftovers for a million other recipes across the week.

[@gamingproject5601]

but the prep was in the video, he Did everything on screen, the cleanup part should not be considered in this Challenge simply because restaurants does not have one person doing the cooking the prep and the cleaning, is a business with more than one person, and then if we have to be this specific since the restaurant messed up the order he made the food in half of the time he got his food right (If we consider that the restaurant they went was more or less 10 min as they said in the video, it took around 40 minutes to get the proper food)

I really like the concept of this series, and obviously since it's the first episode you're just testing the waters. It's good as is, but I feel as if it could be the perfect way to test out "speed cooking" hacks.

@@justinjackson3123 Something tells me that Ethan may have gotten his fast food ideas from the fast food restaurants. But that's just me.

@@jaredfulcher4890 who gives a shit who did what first, they are food youtube content creators. Everyone has ripped off someone its 2022. It's EXTREMELY unlikely there is an original idea anymore. They aren't inventing cures for diseases here or claiming copyright over something. Watch or don't.

[@Tzurakmar]

Josh, Josh, JOSH! Yes, this is the series we needed. And honestly, the little peeks of the crew and the whole set-up make the series seem that much more wholesome and genuine. Half the reason we get take-out is because we're convinced it's faster. PROVE US WRONG!

[@ylllom]

Audibly cackling in the office rn. Thank you for sharing your stress and candid cooking 😂🫶🏻

[@paring3450]

Loving these cooking speedruns, but I do prefer Ethan's complete start to finish style of vids.

[@unithy11]

I was looking for a mention of Ethan's videos. Do you think this series is a little bit of a rip-off of Ethan's or purely coincidence?

[@paring3450]

​@@unithy11 The format of the series seems completely identical, theres no shot that its just a coincidence, at least in my opinion. Content creators do their own twists on ideas all the time tho so its no big deal I suppose.

You will never beat Ethan

[@aprylharper7374]

This was really fun! I love this new series! I feel like more time could have been saved if we used the stove behind you. Spent a lot of time rearranging the table top stoves and making more room because of them.

[@alisonhopkins7600]

This is the series we really needed, thanks papa for realistic tools

[@benemery1644]

I love it! The slight tension combined with your culinary expertise and showmanship make for a great and exciting video, I hope you make lots more of these in the future.

[@camicromwell9895]

I love this series so far. One of my biggest issues in the kitchen is timing. Sometimes its hard to figure out what I can do at the same to to save time. I know you'll have great tips! Thanks!

[@jeanpierre3061]

I love seeing the crew in the videos. Would love more of that.

[@toniodejimi3905]

I like how chaotic this is? Like it seems like he’s actually cooking at home on a busy schedule.

[@fisheo]

5:25 I always use my pressure cooker to make rice. It even has a rice setting. Super great!

[@robynbirde]

I love this idea for a series! Agree w others that the editing was a bit too choppy and the "rushed" feel was unnecessary in the editing, as it's already built into the content itself. But lots of fun and I hope there's more of these!

[@arieldanielle23]

Part of what makes Ethan's version of this so good is that the editing is so minimal. It's basically one long cut but he speeds up some parts when he's just futzing around looking for stuff. This is kind of a poor co opt on the concept

[@plataroo]

Love this new series!! Probably will become my favourite 😊

[@kait7232]

Loved this. Just tried making it and it was the first time I have fried something. Thank you!!

[@mikeomata9582]

This series is incredibly helpful! Great stuff

[@lordasayt]

I fully support this “But Faster” series, even the intro hittin (I also fw how I see the real deal, raw Joshua kuz I’ve even done that no egg mixture a FeW TiMes…I just wash it before breading and fry it more)

intro is go2work - Ballpoint

[@chimmychim7848]

Love it! Can’t wait to see more

[@fovarberma752]

I swear, I was watching a VIDEOGAME speedrun channel not 2 videos ago, and had watched some Korean Cooking and Kitchen Nightmares. KZbin brought me here and I completely enjoyed the experience. Subscribed right away. Keep it up!

[@TennisMasta3]

I already know I'm going to love this series. I learned so much just watching you scramble around the kitchen yet so getting shit done. Whenever I try making your recipes it takes me forever but seeing how you navigate the kitchen in a time crunch will be super helpful!!!

[@jirons2709]

I just want to say thank you Josh for listening to our comments. Ive seen the “But Faster” suggestion on many of your videos. The fact that you’re listening to your fans isn’t going unnoticed.
