Remaking and Reviewing our First EVER Recipe | 2010 vs 2018! | Sorted Food

[@thaiseathaydesantos]

I'm really happy about how much you've grown in experience and as a channel, you guys deserve it. This is by far the most entertaining cooking channel I've ever seen!

[@shishirleyy]

Thaise Athayde I know right!!!! THEY ARE SOOO PRECIOUS

[@MrMultiPlatform]

you need to get out more

[@thaiseathaydesantos]

@Evie Henry I just watched the I suck at cooking video about tomato sandwich, I'm laughing way too much 😂

[@thaiseathaydesantos]

@Evie Henry not exactly a cooking channel, but seriously funny.

[@thaiseathaydesantos]

@Evie Henry It reminded me of "true facts", but for food.

[@jeymf4467]

I've been watching Sorted since 2010 and I HAD NOT NOTICED this transition from babySorted to now. I guess when you watch consistently you don't notice the aging process, but comparing babySorted vs currentSorted had me SHOOK! BabyBen was all sorts of gangly awkwardness... it's great!

[@sandypatrick2121]

Agree! I admittedly just started following and have been watching through a playlist and the changes happened on screen over a few days (yes days) but still seeing the side by side it is amazing to see the growth!

[@ronnnnie]

agreed. this makes me wanna go back and watch all videos from the beginning.

[@ledoi5961]

and ben was a lot skinnier :D lol

[@yamiatemyugi]

Jey MF I love the name BabySorted. BabyBen is the best

[@marthawilson444]

This was awesome, the garlic in and out was so funny. I may try to re-evaluate some of my recipes.

[@fairygirl626]

Biggest difference between then and now: We can trust Jamie to chop garlic without chopping his fingers off. Ben did ALLLLLLL the cooking back then.

The normals did some things-just slowly and awkwardly.

they always cut stuff back then

Great to have you along for the journey... do you have a fav video in 7 years? Probably over 1,200 to choose from!

[@ProudGeek94]

I’ve actually missed the simple one video one recipe thing you guys used to do, so this is such a treat. I’m not saying I don’t like your new videos, but this is such a good mix of old and newwwww. It has a nice throwback-y vibe, but is also comparing different versions of a dish, and as an assessment and proof of how much you guys have evolved. I would NOT BE MAD if this became a recurring thing. Loved it.

[@shahadjz2]

I agree!

[@user-qo5no3yr6l]

I used to watch these videos lying on the floor of my bedroom, writing your recipes on flashcards and dreaming of my own kitchen. And now I'm in my last year of university, cooking for myself every day! How time flies

[@thatbrickbloke3751]

I was only thinking the other day how much different your videos are now compared to when I started to watch sorted years ago. I hadn't even noticed you'd stopped saying sorted at the end!

[@SilverAlaunt]

That Brick Bloke wow! I never noticed that either until I read your comment.

[@FionaValerie21]

Same!!

[@jeremyciesla5798]

Probably because they've more or less stopped giving us recipe videos

[@DrLobster]

They have moved to entertainment, rather than education. It happens to all the channels once they get large enough.

[@chamashadissanayake536]

Omg me too!

[@izzy1221]

look at Baby Ben go! He was stick skinny! *Guess it shows that better food means bigger chef.*

[@SortedFood]

That was straight after working a year in a pro kitchen... Many hours a week of active work. Things have calmed down a little now.

[@maddymp4]

You look happier and healthier now Ben! :)

[@FaultAndDakranon]

I think that a happy chef is a better chef :) And that means enjoying food more too.

[@barbaracunningham964]

Never trust a skinny cook!

[@RICDirector]

Jamie, on the other hand, is getting awfully well padded... :) Of course, so am I....LOL!

[@ChaunceyS]

I love seeing the change in people. It’s awesome! Also Jamie, here’s my dad’s favorite dad joke. He only did this when he was going somewhere and I had to stay home. He would look at me, and in his best Terminator voice, say “you be Beethoven, I’ll be Bach.” Still to this day says this to me, and I crack up every time.

[@bcaye]

Your dad sounds fun.

[@r.scougal4696]

[@393chandni]

was hoping they would bring back "Super GeEK!" when Ebbers said spreadsheet😂

[@SilverAlaunt]

CHanZ I miss the days of the “super geek” tune and bens obsession with sprigs of mint.

[@aletheabarretto3624]

I miss that so much

[@isabely3502]

I also miss that they don’t end with sorted anymore. Or talk about Bens red shorts anymore. I wonder if he still has them?

[@SilverAlaunt]

Isabel Y the red shorts! Oh, how could I have forgotten those. It’s been about three-four years since they’ve made an appearance.

[@limaman7262]

Ben saying “and that, is our Beef and Ale Stew, *sorted* ” gave me goosebumps. Their first video didn’t have Ben saying that and hearing him finally say it 8 years after is chilling. I’m so proud of you guys. ♥️♥️

[@ethancampbell215]

Is there anything more iconic than Ebbers shoehorning some form of alcohol or obscure vegetable into his dish 😂😂 if there’s any opportunity whatsoever to include alcohol in the dish he’s guaranteed to take it and if celery or carrots can be included he’s all over it 😂it’s the brand he’s built for himself over the past 13 years of Sorted videos and I can’t complain about it even the tiniest amount 😂

[@Listrom]

As someone who only found your channel recently, It is crazy to see how amazing your videos became. But it was also troubling, I thought Ben was born as a man in his 30's.

[@hailey1371]

James always got upset when Ben finished dishes with mint but he just put a garden's worth of weeds on top of his and Barry's stew. Injustice and hypocritical.

[@haleyvanwinkle620]

That wasn't mint it was celery leaf.

[@sofiadaluz9120]

The Rarest Lion She never said it was mint...

[@rumblefish9]

@@sofiadaluz9120 She did though "James always got upset when Ben finished dishes with mint"

[@Arif-kw5rw]

A little sprig of mint does not add any flavour/freashness. In comparison, a couple sprigs of coriander leaves adds just enough freshness. All James version is missing is a squeeze of lime at the end

[@Fyreflier]

When garnishing, always use something a) edible, and b) already part of the dish so throwing mint on a dish with no mint is a bit daft but putting celery leaves on a dish where celery is included makes sense

[@jchangaus]

"My chance to be a daddy" - Ben just can't help himself. 😂

Hope Tyrone didn't hear him say that :)

[@ntlespino]

Came to the comments looking for that joke

[@Shorty24136]

Young Ben was hot... To be fair he still is... PS roast your potatoes for mash and gnocchi it adds an extra depth of flavor and it also means they dry out more so you end up with a better consistency.

[@mindom]

I actually made this stew after I saw the video. It was damn good!! Now I gotta try this "Sorted Leveled Up" recipe

[@rachelallsop6524]

When Barry is a dad can it be multiple dad jokes of the week ????

A Resfresh of the old nandos recipe????

[@bakadraco6321]

You should totally do the Crusted Spring Lamb with Butternut Squash Purée that you made for that Japanese KZbinr, runnrunny999!

[@carterthomas9182]

You guys should do a normal vs chef ultimate battle where the normals team up to make an ultimate dish and the chefs team up to make an ultimate dish. You get 90 minutes to make your dish. The judges will be people from around the office. Love you guys keep up the amazing work :)

[@mrinalini9112]

carter thomas Yep, but to balance, chefs should get a little less time, like they get one hour and the normies get one and a half.

[@joyjohnson1900]

Great idea

[@bcaye]

@@mrinalini9112, no way. The boys have gotten way faster at prep and are able to remember processes without instructions. The 3:2 ratio is enough of a handicap!

This has made me realise I’ve gone from watching you guys as a revision break doing GCSEs all the way up to me graduating university this year .... thank you for being a lovely consistent piece of my life guys, I really appreciate this channel and your hard work and it’s so nice to see how you’ve all evolved and changed (for the better) over the years. Xx

[@DanParkerFilms]

I only just realised that at the end when Ben was holding the plate his top button was open. Nice little callback to the original.

[@johan21mp]

Developing, adapting and mish-mashing flavours and dishes to my own liking is the most involving and joyful exprience as an amateur chef. Making something that is of your own making, an imprint of your cooking style, that is then enjoyed by you and those you dine with. That is what makes me love cooking.

[@whoopsydaisy707]

This video just shows how (for me anyway) SORTED videos have gone from "yeah I'm gonna make that" to "looks delish but I'm never gonna do that" haha - still love watching and learning from you guys though!

[@Litomatoma]

You fellas give off those good vibes

[@dianehutchinson9257]

The way Ben says "viscosity" is exactly why I'm so in love with him! 😍

[@lonitbonit5618]

I love redoing recipes that I've made for years. My mother started teaching me to cook when I was 6 and claims I was a better cook than her by the time I was 15 because she embraced my love of tweaking and playing with ingredients. I'm excited to start teaching my daughter how to cook (She's 3 and listens like a rock, so I have a while yet) and I hope she enjoys it as much as I do.

Exactly maturity! Nothing to do with Stockholm syndrome at all... but seriously I love you guys. I've learnt so much from you over the years and also got to pass some of it on. In fact I took your chocolate tart recipe and combined it with one from binging with babish and made it for friends yesterday. Absolute triumph x

[@imogenna_]

My nostalgic heart! I started watching you guys about a year into the channel and just hearing the music and seeing the old video just filled me with so much happiness to have been here so long. You’ve come so far and changed and done so much and I love this channel, i love all of you, and the community it’s created ❤️

I love how Mike is still so funny, Barry is suchh a millenial and Jamie is the biggest meat man in existence. And James is just my favorite redhead in the world. Much love to you guys
