Truly incredible Chefsteps!!!

That making of the new cheese was fascinating

For everyone at home, you can make your own sodium citrate by reacting baking soda and a solution of citric acid in a pan on low/medium heat. You can use lime/lemon juice too, but you will get the flavor of the juice(minus the acidity since the baking soda neutralizes it) in your final dish, which can be very nice for a queso or fondue! Happy cooking! 😊

I attempted to do the square bread thing with a milk bread recipe and a covered pullman pan like you use....about twice the length of your pan (USA-PAN?). I thought I had calculated this recipe to scale for this pan but I was in for a surprise. I heard a loud POP from the oven and this bread blew the cover off sideways. No damage to the pan or the oven and the bread tasted great. Made some Monte Cristo type three layer Sammies with some process cheese I dunt with a Joule and some fancy melting salts from Modernist Pantry, and a lot of muffin rings, and three types of cheese. Yeah like one day making sandwiches but the experience was great. Love your channel.

You made the ultimate delicious grilled cheese sandwich adding a lot of chees texture however this video will be levelled up in the kitchen fantastic video and extremely helpful for everyone thanks.

I like to slice the sandwich after the first flip. Melty cheese oozes out and crisps up 🤤 I'll also shred a bit of cheese and melt/crisp it up in the crust. Can't have too much cheese!

Love cheese, love bread but I agree. The deficits in the first two grilled cheese's definitely needed to be stated

❤ the cheese SKIRT!

Love the bracelet! Where can I get one?

So glad that your have a Shokupan recipe! Been follow your for 10 years! Hope to see your grow in the next 20!

No SMPH? Do you not like using it as an emulsifying salt anymore or did you go with just Sodium Citrate for accessibility/not scaring off lay people?

Using a Pullman loaf pan to make a milk bread is a really good step here, makes a big difference in terms of texture and shape reliability.

A good recipe. I have gotten in the habit of egg washing grilled cheese to finish the sandwich to deal with the holes in artisanal bread.

"I'm not into that. I don't like holes." Perfection. And hilarity.

Not a fan of cheese singles, but still another useful CS video. Using grilled cheese as a convenient way to examine the variable qualities of different breads and cheeses. Knowing more allows you to better decide how to create your own eating experience while cooking and baking.

I made the manchego version of the cheese. It turned out much firmer than expected (sliceable with a knife) and did not melt quite like the video shows. as there are different ages of manchego, I wonder if mine was aged more than the recipe intended...

I thought I was the only one singing Halo theme music while preping food😂 7:10

The trick is to cook it open faced with a lid. Cooks the outer sides evenly, and the lid encourages the cheese to melt. Then you sandwich it and it glues itself shut with the melted cheese

Not the same thing as what they're talking about. Chef Steps looks at applied food science via modernist gastronomic techniques blending the artisanal approach found in high end cuisine with the consistency of industrial technology and food items processed at scale.

My ultimate grilled cheese uses coconut oil (a ChefSteps trick) and then toasting in a combi oven with steam so the outside is perfectly evenly brown and the inside of the bread is moist. It's like a cover of Food & Wine version of grilled cheese!

And its sandwich time... 😋 I am gonna attempt making some sandwiches and waste my time ,just like the chef did... 😂😂

Even though I love the crunchy messy gooeyness of gc on artisanal breads, I want to try this. One question: The biggest gc lover in my life is lactose intolerant. She can eat cheese, but milk powder in anything is bad news. Any way of pulling off a similar bread without milk powder?

@marcusmello69

11 ай бұрын

I've seen lactose-free milk powder here in Canada. If you can't find that, the recipe calls for 13g of milk powder, which is equivalent to 100 ml of milk(13g MP + 90 ml water). So maybe you could try slowly evaporating 100ml of lactose-free milk until you have something like 61ml(about 55ml of water + milk stuff) and use it on the Tangzhong instead of water.

god tier grilled cheese has a thin layer of gochujang on the inside of the sandwich

Ultimate grilled cheese: extra sharp cheddar mixed with a little blue and topped with sour cherry preserves. Or if I am feeling anti-social - extra sharp cheddar, mixed with a little butter and garlic and maybe a touch of oregano. It is the ultimate marriage of grilled cheese and garlic bread!

It’s a grilled cheese, FGS! Wonder Bread and Singles is the greatest OG. Everything else is a head game!

The talking portions are very quiet compared to the music. It's annoying to constantly go to the volume during cuts.

This is a bit misleading, innit? To get that cheese pull, one has to make the sandwhich, then cut it, then put it back together, open it, lay in a slices of craft singles, close it again, wait for it to melt and then get the perfect cheese pull. Unobtainable by those not in the know. Be better!

As a non-USA person "Grilled Cheese" drive me nuts because the cheese3 is not actually grilled, but only the bread is. Whenever I ear "Grilled Cheese" I think about a nice slice of cheese, grilled to the pint where it develops a nice millard rich crust outside, and it's melty inside, all in a nice piece oof bread. Please grill the cheese for real.

Жыл бұрын

​@@katl8825 LOL, totally agree on the toasties as a world. It's cute and hilarious. I'm from europe, were we have a great tradition of cheese and grilling them :D There are a number of different ways you can do it, it depends quite a bit from the kind of cheese you use: if you use "cheese" like craft singles of course it's not gonna work. If you start from a nice hunk of real cheese, correctly aged, with a "stringy dough: (ie: cheese that do the stretch when melted), you will be able to obtain a lovely Millard crust that encases the melted cheese. At that pint when you bite into it you go thought the crunchy crust and then sink your teeth in the soft stretchy cheese. It's legit an orgasm for your mouth if you love cheese. Of course the way yo cook it is important too. For instance if you stick a thin slice of cheese on a grill it will of course melt and vanish. But there are cheese you can actually put on a grill if you pay enough attention. A nice and hot Soapstone works great, but a light oiled frying pan can work great too in a pinch. In a nutshell you want to reach the 140-165 C, were the millard reaction happens, very quickly so that the outer proteins make the crust and keep the goo inside. That's pretty much the whole "secret". And when you put that between 2 pieces of nice bread, perhaps with a little jam, or a nice honey, spreaded on the bread, OMG so good. At that point you'd get it why the "grilled cheese sandwich" to me (but I'm not alone in this) doesn't look anything more than a weirdly named cheese toasties :D

Regular grilled cheese is great, but Chef Steps is all about trying new ideas and concepts.

The only reason I watched this “chefsteps” video is because you cant make a grilled cheese with a sous vide machine. All of their other videos are totally useless and there are many chefs that came before the invent of the sous vide machine just a heads up
