I got one to add! An immersion blender. Easy to use, easy to store & minimal dishes. I love not having to pull out a giant blender for a small job.

I think another one you could have mentioned was a quarter sheet. Us common folk with small shallow sinks will understand the struggle of trying to maneuver a large item as to rinse it and not get water outside of the sink. With a quarter sheet, it fits easily in most sinks, fits in most toaster ovens, and honestly made me enjoy roasting more as it wasn’t a giant sheet I had to fill, rather a reasonable size for the meal I was trying to cook

The best use case for paper towels is soaking up grease.

Two videos in a week? Truly we are blessed this day!!

One thing you forgot to mention about carbon steel vs. cast iron is that they are hell of a lot lighter therefore easier to maneuver and heat up compared to most cast iron pans of the same diameter. My only gripe with them, or at the least the one I own from deBuyer, is that the handle is not very ergonomically designed because it's flat and so uncomfortable to hold, even through a towel. Anyway, great video! I too implore people to own a nice carbon steel pan (or wok) themselves. It gets better every time you use it and the progress you make on seasoning it, makes it feel like you're levelling up in an RPG.

Steel bowls are indeed the underlooked hero of internet cooking. I almost exclusively use it rather than glass bowls, it's lighter, more robust, is easier to clean, and aside from presenting a salad in a glass bowl in which case "seeing through" is an advantage, steel bowls are just better in every way.

Love the gaming reference at the end. I have never cooked a meal in my life but I love watching your videos.

Carbon steel is one of the last holdouts of the "professional secrets" in cooking. Every fine dining restaurant I've worked in (including some Michelin-starred places) uses them. They are 1000x better than cast iron.

@sparksbet

11 ай бұрын

@@linkdude64 Rust is no more of a risk with carbon steel than with cast iron. It's also unlikely to be an issue in a restaurant setting because it results from the pan sitting around without being oiled/seasoned regularly, which isn't going to happen in a kitchen where it's used daily. Stainless steel is very popular in kitchens due to its hygenic nature, but it's not strictly required anywhere afaik, and there are some things you need a non-stick surface for and thus cannot use stainless steel pans for.

Very good list. But if you are going to recommend a mandoline, please recommend a cut-resistant glove to work with the mandoline.

After years of using IKEA non-stick pans because of roommates and general cheapness, when I moved out to my own place the first thing I got was a carbon steel pan, discounted from a kitchen supply store because it had some surface rust. Cleaned it up, seasoned it a little and just started cooking with it a ton, and it's honestly the best kitchen investment I ever made next to a good Dutch oven and an espresso setup.

I'd love to see a kitchen tour type video, where we see how you organize things, which things are most important, etc. Just an idea!

In my experience carbon steel pans will eventually warp. I've tried them again and again and each one eventually warps. Now this warpage won't bother you if you have a gas stove but on electric they will rock and not heat evenly.

@sirnuggets9666

good point, never thought of that. I heard some companies sell significantly thicker carbon steel pans. Their weight is closer to cast iron so less likely to warp but still easier to use than cast iron. My friend had one similar he said it was German made but it didn't have a logo so I have no idea where he got it from. I also heard you can retemper your pans by placing them in the oven at 450 and letting them cool as slow as possible in the oven helps to reduce stress in the metal and reduces warping.

This guy is informative, straight to the point, and incredibly knowledgeable. Possibly one of the best cook youtubers there is. And he doesn't try to fluff his videos with cheesy humor. Love him

Bro, the whisk in the wine is the best idea ever. I have a decanter, but I rarely drink with it because its such a chore to clean it again. And once it got marks that won't go away with soapy water it's so hard to make it look pristine again.
