Barry shouting "EMULSIFY" like he's trying to cast a spell in Harry Potter was pretty wonderful

And the thing is, he's been part of the channel to know that if your mayo is runny but not separated, it's because you haven't added enough oil. He just straight up faffed it.

yeah, but the thing is, Barry is being a Lockhart.

It didn't work because the spell is "emulsifyamus" emphasis on the emulsifYAMus" in order to be effective.

[@larissapinto3791]

I've honestly been impressed by Jamie's performance since last year. He has definitely improved, and become more organised and precise. It's a stark contrast to the early days when Jamie in kitchen meant chaos, it still means chaos but just more controlled chaos

[@renees766]

Agreed!

[@wmc58]

Jamie's basic photography badge win will probably forever be my favourite moment of this entire chef skills challenge series. Sound of Silence duet is a close second.

[@gknucklez]

Jamie still flops in most "Pass It On"s, but when he has full control and a bit more time to prepare things, he is almost always a close contender for first place, he's become pretty good :D

[@fionaclaphamhoward5876]

I reckon he's matured a bit, in a really good way. His "bit of a lad" shtick often used to come across (to me anyway) more as just mean and unnecessarily disruptive. Now it's fun and entertaining. Maybe fatherhood has been a good influence?

[@averyeml]

Jamie’s gone from being the kind of chaos where someone more likely than not going to end up bloody to the kind of chaos where he’s probably just going to derail a Pass It On idea.

[@katy4523]

I just want to say this was the most relaxed I've seen Jamie in a while in the kitchen. He did such a fantastic job and has really improved so much!!! Also I think one of the badges should be the ABCs of fruits and veggies and they have to identify them in dishes, visually, or blind test

[@mattyspratt9906]

just don’t add pineapple bc Barry could easily identify it by the swelling in his mouth

[@graphenaishata7960]

Also jamie would have a hard time on identifying fruits based on visual, since he is colorblind xS

[@katy4523]

@@graphenaishata7960 oh yes that's absolutely true. I wish there was a way to help someone who is color blind to know which veggies are which. Like guides at stores for example

[@bcaye]

@@katy4523, the only produce I can think of that tastes different based on color is apples, and they are labeled by varieties. Even grapes don't taste much different by color. Bell peppers do, but they are labeled by color and green peppers are much cheaper so you could go by that.

[@CarlGorn]

Blind tasting would be interesting, since most veggies in a dish are not there to stand out, but to blend in and harmonize with the rest of the dish. They'd really have to work for that one.

[@markquaker8743]

"Hello dukkah, my old friend... I've come to learn your blend again..."

19:42 When Ben revealed Barry had lost a badge, I love how Jamie’s FIRST reaction was horror FOR Barry, in sympathy. He knew how gutted Barry would be. It’s cool that, even though these three boys are competitive, they still genuinely care about each other. (And yes, I’m sure it very quickly occurred to him afterwards to feel horror for *himself*, as he realised all his badges have the potential to be similarly rescinded. But in that first moment, it was all sympathy for Baz.) Edited to add: Haha, it didn’t stop Mike and Jamie from roasting Barry at the end though. “Is there a ‘How to following instructions’ badge that maybe you could go for?”

[@TheGrimReaper678876]

So you are telling me there is a chance....YES!

[@chairofthebored]

Want my fool proof method? Oil up a nonstick pan, crack your eggs in, put it on a cold element/hob/burner (whatever you want to call it), cover with a lid of some sort, turn the heat on to medium high. Eventually you'll hear some crackles and popping and that's when you check your egg. Cover with lid and leave on for a few more seconds at a time to desired doneness. The gradual increasing heat will help cook the whites thoroughly, the lid will help it cook from the top as well, and the yolks will remain completely runny.

[@CarlGorn]

What I do is this: Cooking spray in a nonstick pan, flame on high, crack the eggs into a bowl and then pour them into the hot pan. Cover for 30 seconds or until the outer white is set. Throw an ice chip OR a tablespoon of cold water in the pan and cover for 15-30 seconds, until yolks are just clouded over. Yolk should be runny and perfect for dipping. Learned this steaming trick by watching DDD. Thank you, Guy Fieri.

@@Serendipity.fff8e7 very good question: here's an answer: "Selon Escoffier, il existe cinq sauces fondamentales, qui sont des sauces « mères » qui servent de base à toutes les petites sauces composées : la sauce béchamel, ou reine des sauces ; à base de lait épaissi par un roux blanc. la sauce espagnole ou sauce brune ; obtenue par réduction d'un jus brun lié par un roux brun la sauce velouté, où le jus est un fond blanc lié par un roux aussi blanc que possible ; la sauce rouge "tomate" ; généralement à base de tomate, des carottes, des oignons, de l'ail, du beurre et de la farine, ainsi que de la poitrine de porc et du bouillon de veau. la sauce mayonnaise ; mélange d'huile, de jaune d'œuf et d'un acide, soit du vinaigre, soit du jus de citron. A la suite d'une traduction anglaise du livre de référence d'Escoffier, Le Guide Culinaire par William Heinemann en 1907 intitulée "A Guide to Modern Cookery by Escoffier"[8], la sauce hollandaise remplace la mayonnaise dans la liste des sauces mères et est depuis considérée comme telle à l'inverse de l'intention initiale d'Escoffier."

I think you missed out an important bit in this video - how to salvage Barry's failed mayo. How to identify when it's failing, why it's failing, and if it's beyond salvaging.

[@mjlim6610]

If I were to venture a guess, it might be that he added the oil too quickly - in the initial phase you have to add oil in tiny quantities or very very slowly to start the emulsification(?)

[@TheVietnameseCatGoblin]

To save it, he has to start with a new egg and a bit of mustard in a clean bowl, whisk that egg constantly while drizzling a tiny bit of the split mixture in at a time (basically doing a new mayonnaise with the split mixture as the oil part). Or he could leave it still until it splits completely and then blitz it again with a stick blender. The fully separated mixture will whiz up, but simply blitzing the egg into the half-split mixture would not work - I had the experience when I made my first mayonnaise. Agreed with the comment above about him probably adding oil too fast, it was what happened with my first mayo.

[@rulitossimplyrulitos1088]

Was very worried that the half cup of EVOO I put in it would go to waste. But then the starting again with a new egg in a new bowl and slowly drizzle in works like a charm!

[@LightningRound1st]

Jaime is really impressing me. He continues to give solid and, sometimes, inspired skill presentations. I think he's going to win the year. Mike has really improved. If "most improved" qualified for a win, I'd say Mike has that nailed. Barry...bless his heart. He lets his ego and bravado run away from him. He shows some strong skills but always ends up falling down if the slightest thing goes wrong. If he loses the bravado and can roll with the punches, he could upset everything and take the win.

[@miguelcostas-sabatier2817]

Just when I was looking for something to watch, Sorted came through!

[@SortedFood]

Love it when that happens - enjoy!

[@caveminer2789]

Yeah they sorted you out

[@atheeralharbi2736]

Same 🥰🥰

[@hannahtriz]

So true

Mike and Jamie with that harmony definitely badges there.

[@chelsea1990.]

I miss them singing , my favourite was the Disney battle

[@NaraShikamaru21]

Ben last week: "I think Barry knows who is handing out badges the rest of the year" Ben this week: "I think I'm going to take away badges from Barry the rest of the year" Barry, you played yourself.

This was one of my favorite videos. I'm afraid I've been binge-wathcing lately :)

[@firstlast5068]

The harmony between Mike and Jamie at the end singing "Sound of Silence" was lovely!

[@carloscjr_]

Poor Barry lol. But respect to Ebbers for holding them to a standard.

[@Y0G0FU]

hes doing good. I love his merciless Professionalism in these challenges. Makes these far more entertaining and educational for me at least :D

[@Zivon96]

Barry's utter despair made me smile, and I have never felt worse for laughing this hard in my life.

[@gateauxgato]

Their faces as Ben announces Barry's lost badge XD

[@TheGundamGirl17]

From the schadenfreude over Barry's loss, to the shock/realization that they too could potentially lose badges, to the confusion and hilarity that Barry didn't know what goes in Dukkah, and full circle to schadenfreude again. The range of emotions was *chef's kiss*

[@peterterry7918]

Oh, yes their faces showed all the emotion.

[@maryjoyspohrer256]

Oh, my goodness! On top of everything else, they can sing too??? That was LOVELY!

[@frauleindinchen]

I love the Harmony when they started singing in the End! SO NICE! GIVE US MORE!

[@Lisa-np4hw]

Would love a chef skills challenge about allergies and or food preferences!! Like the boys get a recipe and then they need to make substitutions to make it gluten free/lactose free/vegan etc. It’s such an important skill for normals as well, hopefully this year can bring some more dinner parties! 🙏

[@Alfiewow]

21:18 Jamie starting off with the harmony and then Mike joining in was cool as fuck!

[@firekracker92]

I made a comment on the last video that said "I want to see the chef do the skill or tell us about it and then show the normals doing it so we can see where the gap is". And they did that in this video! It was a huge help to see what the "standard" is to see how well the normals do and to also learn how to do it properly. Keep being awesome guys!

[@ashlynharrison3170]

I just love Sorted so much. I just smile through the entire video no matter what it’s about 😊 Congrats boys! You’re all less than normal!

[@TawdryTempest]

The shade in this episode is fantastic. I giggled along,; reminded of being around my siblings and being competitive about everything.

[@peterrogers1324]

Love Ben being tough on the normals! Makes it a proper competition and, of course, ups the stakes

[@nyonggg1111]

I insist that jamie and mike do a full acapella cover of Sound of Silence. That harmony at the end was AMAZING LIKE WHAT

[@chenandfriends]

We NEED a full cover by Mike and Jamie of “Hello darkness my old friend”

[@nickpels5772]

It’s called Sounds of Silence, by Simon and Garfunkel

[@australianwi-fi]

@@Tom-vx5eq what the fuck are you on about

@@australianwi-fi Precision in speech is important! There are a lot of common ways that people screw up, and Tom mentioned a few of them.

20:05 Mike's out there listing the spices in Dukkah while Jamie adds salt and pepper to the list like he's actually very familiar with the blend too XD

[@KatDJZ]

Just the looks on Mike & Jamie's faces when they heard that Barry lost a badge...so good 🤣

[@laurennsspencer]

“I’ve got to put it back” “No”

[@chrisallen5854]

Jamie got Chef Lanlard'ed again!

[@tylermorio1878]

Literally rolling when Jamie said "oh got to put it all back" I love yall so much

[@amontpetit]

I'd love to see him try tbh

[@alishabaker9346]

I love how we get an explanation as they are doing the challenge so we can see if they go wrong as we watch instead of waiting and know how to do it ourselves

[@dv260]

Of all the "badges" videos, this one stands out above the others (which were all good). There should be an almost endless amount of badges to give out and keep the series going.

[@rk1362]

That was so funny. I really enjoy your channel guys. Excellent!
