Idea: Random Ingredient. At the start of each of their turn they have to draw a random ingredient out of a hat and they must find a way to use it in the dish.

[@Debilinside]

I like this one!

[@Maddi3ver]

Ooo and if not all of the 5 main ingredients get into the dish it’s a fail!

[@Lionall]

5 random ingredients can really throw off a dish (not that it would matter in this case xD) but i could see it working with every odd or even person.

@@DharkDemonBlade In fairness, you don't put the lid on until it boils and you turn down the heat. Lidding a rice pot still coming up to the boil is a recipe for disaster, and would waste the next person's turn on cleaning a starchy mess off the stove.

[@ninaradio]

It’s only the key to cooking rice. NBD. 🤦🏻‍♀️ And then they keep adding cold water. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ What utter idiocy! Rice is literally the easiest thing in the world to make. Just put it with twice as much water as rice, boil, cover, and let it simmer until the water is absorbed. No rice worth eating has ever been DRAINED IN A COLANDER. 🤮

[@Quirkyalonester]

Thank you!! That kept bugging me with each new person!

[@leea8706]

@@ninaradio I know this comment is old, but another key thing is leaving the rice alone with the lid on, and off the heat once the water is absorbed for about 10 minutes. I swear it fixes any kind of rice mistake, too much water at the start? Just leave it to steam for 10 minutes at the end. Slightly too little water? Same thing. Not cooked long enough? Doesn’t matter, leave it to steam a bit more. I honestly don’t understand how people have so much trouble. My mum taught me how to cook rice when I was a teenager and I’ve never had any problems cooking rice. In fact I quite enjoy the process.

[@goranpersson7726]

@@ninaradio that's where you're wrong mate, I cant remember the specific region but I believe it was in northern india where they basically treat rice as pasta and boil and drain it. comes out just fine. it just so happens to be that the x1,5-2 water to rice ratio bring to boil reduce to simmer then cover and leave be is easy af and hard to mess up. basically any way that makes the rice absorb enough water and heat up works just fine. some are just easier to do than others

[@whydoineedanameiwillneverp7790]

@@goranpersson7726 The "pasta method" is definitely the way it's done in Bengal (East India). We even have a special pot to cook rice in, whose shape makes it easier to drain the rice. I didn't know there was any other way of cooking rice "correctly" till I got into cooking KZbin. (The "incorrect" method for Bengalis would be to use a pressure cooker - it's faster but is considered 'unhealthy' because 'too much starch stays in the rice' since you can't drain it + exact ratios are hard, so your rice tends to be too mushy). I still don't understand why anybody would faff about with exact ratios. Nobody thinks they need a pasta cooker and an exact ratio of pasta to water to get perfect al-dente pasta. Why treat plain rice differently? It's just a starch to mop up the flavour from the sauce (aka the curry) - it ain't that deep!

I think that a fun order would be "unknown". Each person doesn't know who came before or who will come after them. This way they don't know if they can rely on a chef to come behind and finish it.

[@gregord1986]

They would have to get an extra person to grab the next person in line. The only way to keep it fair

[@carolinemariahendriks8110]

They could draw a number (1-5) out of a hat for the order but not allowed to share with the others until it's their turn? So they would know when they're up but not who comes before or after them. Instead of calling the next person's name they could call out the number instead.

Barry’s thought process when plating is so interesting! I’d love to see him explain some of his most beautiful plates of food and how/why he decided to plate them like that. Hearing him talk here about not liking the plate, ‘going angles’, etc., I think that could be a great way to give some tips to home cooks about little things they could do to improve their presentation skills at home - and maybe a video with everyone cooking different dishes, and Barry plating them up and talking it through. It’s been interesting to hear Ben and James talk through their thoughts in how to approach a new ingredient, or what to do in Pass It On, so I think something similar about presentation skills would be interesting.

[@deactivated-78936]

To be fair to jaime his order was pretty well thought out. Immediately chef: going to pick a rice I've never cooked as though this wasn't hard enough.

[@alwyfadlluah574]

Tbf it was james ... ( cue the clip of james not picking pastry on pastry challenge )

[@phoenixfreefall]

@@alwyfadlluah574 lol yeah James just shouldn't go first. He has too much outside the box kind of thinking that the rest just never figure out what he's up to.

[@aidanbyrne8267]

I think that's the first time Barry's ever turned a hob off 😂

[@PokhrajRoy.]

“Where’s....the dish?” FABULOUS

[@leosmith7511]

I've been having a really stressful time lately, so watching my usual let's plays is too chaotic. So what better time to binge watch my favorite sorted vids? You guys give me joy, especially watching Pass It On hahah Your stress relieves mine.

[@jomi025]

I'm like James stressing out & screaming at the screen on how the rice was just drying out/burning coz the heat was too high and nobody's bothering to cover it as the instructions said. 😂😂😂

[@saimatasnim5716]

Can you do a cake relay.... that would be CRAZY especially with the decor 💀

[@SortedFood]

Haha! Good idea.... we can only imagine what we would end up with.

[@kashishdua7730]

And jamie goes last and we can see jamie try and decorate the cake

[@NerdyMusicChef]

Didn’t the pastry battle basically ended up being cakes?

@@SortedFood Order: Ultimate Battle Victories: most to least.

[@JudyCZ]

@@SortedFood Give yourself more time, though. It sounds like a great idea but I always prefer when you guys have realistic expectations while still being under some pressure. Most fun for us.

[@Jalte7]

How in the world did Jamie get away with re-toasting rice krispys, adding the side veg to the already veg added chorizo, and grilling celery? The dish was literally perfect until this absolute chaos was thrown in. There is a reason he stayed quite until someone said something they liked that was his lol We need a Sorted Reacts video for this(others as well), so we can everyone’s jaws drop

[@Thenlar]

There needs to be more Sorted Reacts (to their own vids) in general! I really loved those and wish there were more.

[@khaxjc1]

Maybe if lock down means they need home filmed content or god forbid they need to quarantine then they could film reactions over video chats.

Any rice recipe that includes straining the rice after it's cooked is wrong.

Calling Uncle Roger for a beat down on how to make rice.

[@bookworms77]

Me the whole time: Put the damn lid on the rice, please someone!!

[@segoi11]

@@andrewscott891 Even the instructions on the rice packet included putting the exact amount of water required and no straining involved. sigh.

Just get a rice cooker

I truly believe that the pass it on series is a modern miracle. I’m spending my Christmas alone (because of Covid) so I’m just rewatching all of the series. Not a bad way to spend Christmas

[@FaereSedura]

It's always so amazing to see how chefs are parallel processing all these ideas and actions while in the midst of things, really the big difference between them and us normals

[@MurderOfSuburbia]

James: You only have to put a lid on it when it comes to the boil Ben: *thinks in geek*

"I'll leave the hob on, it's his safe space." Spot on!

Order suggestion: Someone/Everyone picks the order, then whoever gets picked to go last, goes first instead.

[@GirishManjunathMusic]

They've already done that, right? They select the order then reverse it?

[@hayitsnara5093]

This one isn't reverse its 5,2,3,4,1

[@Azeria]

@@hayitsnara5093 I actually meant 5, 1, 2, 3, 4, but yeah

[@deanderthal]

And all of them leave it uncovered and don't bother to follow the obvious printed directions. *facepalm*

[@dorifrance4937]

Love how the chefs think its a pass and the normals are so hard on themselves and give it fail. Love watching you guys and see your thought processes.

[@deprofundis3293]

No need to rate you in order. I just love these Pass It On episodes SO much. I was cracking up the whole time. And no offense guys, but when you fail, it truly is more entertaining than when you pass. 😂 Don't worry, it doesn't affect my trust in your cooking under normal circumstances! ❤️
