9:00 ish Gabbie is right, you season as you go, each ingredient gets salt as you cook it. When sautee mushrooms for my oasta every night i cooked the mushrooms in olive oil, I add onion powder and carmelize them. Then i add salt which brings out the flavor. If i add too many and crowd the pan or salt them early they release too much water and dont carmelize well. I only add salt once the maillard reaction has occurred. I suggest this approach for steak as well, salt it then immediately sear it, but you cannot skip salt and wait till it gets to the table to season it.

They've shown a disservice to British food off the top of my head I can think of plenty of British dishes which are amazing but never shown: roast dinner beef wellington fish and chips pies and mash( they're shown a disservice in this video) various savory pastries such as a pork pie or Cornish pasty various stews and casseroles cheeses such as Wensleydale or cheddar for dessert their are various cakes cakes, scones theirs also a variety of curries which were invented here such as the chicken tikka masala( a famous Scottish curry) or a style of curry called Baltic which was invented in Birmingham

This is a very London thing

Ollie sold me on the pies and mash when he added salt and vinegar to the dish. Neither one of them sold me on the eels though. I enjoyed this JOLLY with Barry video! ☮ and 💕

[@carolpray9816]

I really thought there would be a race between Barry and Ollie to see who was going to 🤮 the jellied eels up.

[@matthew4107]

traditionally liquor DID have chunks of eels in it, but SO MANY people dont like eel, that they just straight removed it. you can still get eeled liquor at some places.

I've missed you guys so much! You look great. Welcome back.!

After that throwaway comment about the Thames being polluted, I had to jump in to defend it. It's actually currently doing quite well, You can see from birds that fish there that life exists within those waters. I'm not sure anything did when I was little half a century ago, but now it is one of the cleaner waterways in the world.

[@liserjones8465]

Barry! I can't believe you got jellied eels again especially after poor Gabie's reaction! You should take Sorted to Korea!

[@ericmgarrison]

In the southern US, we say "pot liquor" to refer to the liquid in which anything is cooked, e.g., collards, kale, spinach, mustard greens, or shard.

[@Nooticus]

Love the shout out from Barry to Potters Bar’s building trade!! Barnet and Potters Bar, truly a mecca for builders LOL

[@sharonsmith583]

We have pot likker in the Southern United States. It's the liquid from cooking turnip greens or collards. You put you put a vinegary hot sauce on it and eat it with corn bread.

[@AC-ni4gt]

I'd go for stewed eel over jellied eel. Grilled eel is good too.

[@sylviaruvalcaba9142]

So good to have you back!

[@marysweeney7370]

I swear I could see Olly turning green as he ate the jellied eels.

[@Blrdman]

He ate a giant piece

[@martinsmith3354]

and yet Korea has lots of eel dishes?????

[@traceypotter7669]

I love Korean English man. I love Jolly. I love Sorted. And I jump every time you all do a collab! Combining favourites makes me so happy 😊

[@OHSloopyIO]

Ollie putting all that salt and vinegar on his is the equivalent of one of us Americans drowning something in ketchup. LOL

[@serasotasadie]

All other compliments and comments aside, I adore Ducky!!! I rewtch more of your videos with him and Luke in them getting to try food than any other, and that says a lot as I rewatch all your vids, on both channels fairly excessively! Please feed Ducky and Luke more on camera! I love it!

[@NightOps71]

Barry's face when he ate jellied eal is just great

[@Kiwi91663]

I laughed so hard at Ollies face with the eel that my apple watch gave me a LOUD notice....lol.... Thank you for letting me put this on the list of place I really don't have to bother with when I ever get back to the UK...lol....
