THE ULTIMATE PARTY APPETIZERS | SAM THE COOKING GUY

[@russellkarath3206]

I am a pastry chef, just an FYI on your “failed” bourbon caramel sauce...in the future don’t swirl the sugar and water...agitation promotes crystallization...which=bad for caramel 1) use a bigger pan/pot. 2) just let the water and sugar sit and cook, if necessary brush the sides of the pan with water to remove the water/sugar mix because it will crystallize as well. 3) When the sugar/ water mix is a nice amber color add hot cream to deglaze the caramel, it will help the caramel to not “seize” up on you...use a whisk at this point 4) add your bourbon and salt last Your welcome Keep up the great videos, love em Happy new year!

Your industry isn't more important than the overall health of the entire country. Your industry is the hotspot for how the virus spreads. Once the pandemic is over, you can rebuild your business. You can't serve food to dead people.

@@johnchase4408 John, I'm nearly 36 years old and I've been running my own businesses since 14 years old, when I founded my first web development company. If you've been an entrepreneur for as long as you say, and you didn't find a way to reinvest your profits to diversify your company's revenue via numerous verticals, you're horrible at what you do and you don't shouldn't be anywhere near running a business. Also, good job not addressing my point at all. You can't serve food to dead people. You should have been a better entrepreneur if this is killing you.

[@XionAvalonArcadia]

@@Boudiccanyc I understand you are blind to the hipocrsy of the left but your going to tell me that multiple smaller venues can spread faster than say, Walmart, a place where more people can gather for different needs? What about the Lady who had outdoor dining set up and now forced to close to only have the are next to her designated as safe? Do you even have any empirical evidence to support these claims? If lockdown can help, why are other countries that were much more stricter with them now having spikes again?

[@Boudiccanyc]

@@XionAvalonArcadia You're so blind to hypocrisy that you're not even aware of how to spell it. This isn't a political issue. Closing places and having everyone wearing masks works. This is why many Asian countries like Japan and Taiwan as well as countries like New Zealand have handled the pandemic much better than we have. This is an irrefutable fact.

*FYI:* the pepper Sam uses in recipe #2 isn't a Pasilla (which means "little raisin" and is the term for a dried Chilaca pepper), it was most likely a Poblano pepper.

[@IsabelBPerez-iq4fs]

He said green pepper 🫑 so it’s “ Chile morrón verde” you can find them green, yellow, orange or red colors . Pasilla it’s the dry Chile . So he is using Green Bell Pepper 🫑

[@SuzanneBaruch]

@@IsabelBPerez-iq4fs that is *definitely* not a green bell pepper (aka Chile Morron Verde); he says at 7:03 that he's not using a green bell pepper (which is traditional in a Philly Cheese Steak Sub). And I already wrote that he's not using a Pasilla. The dark green color and thicker skin of the pepper he used indicates it's probably a Poblano.

[@IsabelBPerez-iq4fs]

@@SuzanneBaruch When the Philly Cheesesteak is prepared, one large green bell pepper is used . But if you want to use the poblano you have to roast and peel the poblano. I'm not going to argue, it's just my opinion. With any of those is going to be delicious anyway. 👍🤝✌️

[@SuzanneBaruch]

@@IsabelBPerez-iq4fs I'm truly not saying this in a mean way, but maybe you don't understand what he's saying. He says this at 7:03: "Look -- traditionally it would be green pepper [in other words, Green Bell Pepper] but the Pasilla just gives a bit more flavor." So clearly, he's saying that INSTEAD of a Green Bell Pepper, he wants more flavor here so he's using something else. Now, as I wrote above, he's obviously not using a Pasilla. It's not correct that you *must* char and then peel a Poblano before you use it. MANY people (including myself) use Poblano peppers instead of Green Bell Peppers. I have literally never charred then peeled a Poblano before using it, and I've never seen any cooks (except for Hispanic ones) do this first. The Poblano is simply sauted in a pan just like Sam has done.
