Guga: “I’m going to make an amazing side dish and it’s super simple” Also Guga: Breaks out custom dishwear, makes a custom stock, busts out squid ink, home made sauce, and adds in whole shrimp and an entire freakin octopus. 😂❤😂

It all leads back to steak.

Considering Leo is the description guy I wanna say Angel actually hit the nail on the head perfectly. "Longer" Umami makes things that are savory just a bit more savory and the flavor is more deep and impactful. He probably didn't mean for it to be as profound as it was but the description was the most concise it could possibly be.

Yeah that reminded me of the time as a kid, when you had something very delicious you would keep chewing until nothing was left. In order for the taste to linger longer... lets hope i wasnt the only weirdo who did that lmao

Since you mentioned MSG, here is a video idea for you. I recently learned that snacks that use MSG sometimes also contain Disodium Inosinate and Disodium Guanylate (aka DSI/DSG or I+G) to enhance the effect of MSG by 5x stronger (for example, Doritos, Pringles, KFC, Snyders Pretzel Pieces, Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing, etc). From what I’ve seen, some people buy a 50/50 premix of DSI and DSG (for example, by the brand Make It Meaty) and then make a custom mix of 97g MSG and 3g DSI/DSG to make an “enhanced MSG mix”. I was thinking the experiment could be this: 1. Steak + Salt Pepper Garlic (control) 2. Steak + SPG + MSG 3. Steak + SPG + MSG + DSI/DSG Then maybe you could do a mini test with maybe another meat like chicken or maybe a potato based side dish or something, so we can see how it works with and without the MSG+DSI/DSG. I can even see the video title already “Food scientists say THIS makes MSG BETTER!” Anyways, I hope you give it a shot!

Bro what is the tone that in background of angel when he is saying that

Those black dots on the squid aren't actually ink, they're called chromatophores and are essentially skin pores that open and close. This is how they change colour from a white-ish colour, to brown and almost black. The ink actually doesn't cause the skin to change colour, the ink is their defence mechanism against predators 🙂

@Dont_Fear_Phil most welcome :) little known fact about those chromatophores is that cephlapods also breathe through those pores, so that's why they're typically found in very clear water. Murky water is essentially particles suspended in water and would cause them to suffocate, good fishing tip there for anyone wanting to catch squid 😎

I'd love to see Guga talking about his favorite methods for improving a steak and then trying them all on a 1 dollar steak at the same time. For example: a pineapple juice water aged and then using a compound butter with this ink and black garlic

I really appreciate that Angel is trying more and more food. Guy has to open up his palet to the world.

I LOVE you three together, testing, tasting and reviewing 😋 it's alwaaaays entertaining and informative! ❤

Angel's reaction when Guga said Squid Ink... priceless 😂😂😂

The ultimate Guga Challenge: Make all the best Guga steak recipes from the channel at the same time and crown the ultimate Guga Steak.

squid : i have evolved over millions of years to develop this ultimate escape defensive technique guga : i found this amazing liquid to make my steaks better!!!!!

0:10 Hopefully there is a cephalopod expert out there to back me up (or possibly tell me I'm wrong) but I'm pretty sure those black spots aren't the ink. I believe the ink is stored and secreted from dedicated ink sacs located between the gills or occasionally behind the eye. Those markings on the cuttlefish are chromatophores which are used to signal warnings or as sexual displays.

Man your videos jsut keep getting better and better, also you have to do a Korean style raw beef recipe Yukhoe since you did beef tartare, you’ll love the Korean version more and you should experiment with what hot sauces like a homemade one with coconut milk, various chilies and eggplant you’ll be putting that on your steaks to rest and you’ll love the results

It would be good to see some tests between "dry aged with x" vs "compound butter with x" vs "dry aged with x then cooked with butter".

Your presentation format is so on point. No bullshit and straight to the intrigue. I’m hooked.

I pretty sure whenever Guga’s neighbors smell steak they’re going “Oh boy! Guga’s making another KZread video!” 😂 that looks delicious Guga!

"our today's side dish is SUPER simple and here's how" proceeds to make an entire seminar on a single recipe. love you guga.

I'd love to see this trio food critique a fancy restaurant anywhere in the world. P.S. maybe a three country food tour?

Love to see Guga show off his cooking skills beyond steaks and stuff

I love the editing!!! Makes the videos so much more engaging! Keep up the good work Angel!!

I recently bought cuttlefish ink and a jar of black garlic at Jungle Jim's(they have ink in little packs so you don't have to buy or open a whole jar😃) to turn into black pasta. Hard to find people with taste experience of squid ink, so perfect timing. Thank you!

I can't shake off the feeling that you are eating cold food at the end of every video.

That black steak can be a great addition to the halloween recipes, and if it was cooked caveman style on top of some hot stones, then it might just give that right and scary cannibal-feeling to the treat. :D EDIT: I don't support cannibalism at all, just to clarify to those weak and narrowminded delicate posies out there who might run into this comment.

I know the amount of work (well i don't lol) involved in such a massive task, but wow... maybe for 5 million subscriber video? 30-45 "winner steaks +1 control" from each of these experiments, get the Uncle Gordon involved too, alongside all other Uncles and amazing guests you've had to date including the future. Just an idea :D

That side dish!!!! Absolutely beautiful

Great video and that side dish looks next level!

I'm early so wanted to say I cooked a steak today and watching your videos helped!

He's back! Let's go!

Wow Guga this is some next level cooking! 👏

There should be 2 controls: a pure one and another with simple butter. The one with the compound butter is almost always the winner, BUT I guess that's mainly due to the butter and not the additional ingredient. There should be another control to take this into account!

Guga who edits your videos!?!? The editing adds so much to the video, and they deserve so much love!!!

Y'all are such good sports when someone is cooking something a member doesn't like - be it spicy for Guga or seafood for Angel, everyone does their due diligence :D

Ok Guga, this is one I never thought of!

Thanks for your video and nice advices.

Greetings from Spain! Looks fantastic!

Leo is such a class act!

Definitely will try it.

“Let’s dew et!” Those words are truly music to my ears

Ooh new guga video, good day

Guga, whenever you make an experiment where one steak is with compound butter, you should also baste the other two steaks with regular butter, just to make sure that the reason you prefer the compound butter is not the butter-taste itself

I'd totally try that! ESPECIALLY that side dish! I love most seafood - octopus is among my favorite! I made some takoyaki just last week!

Hi chef Guga. You are awesome' thank you for your videos. Can’t wait to get to try some of your techniques when I get back on my feet. God Bless.

Guga Drops a new one very good

You should definitely try Bovril dry aged steak, Bovril is basically concentrated beef so it should make the steak super beefy if it works!

@guga should definitely do a World Cup of all his experiments!!

guga im from spain and i have to say that paella is amazing but when your done jsut add some lemon doesnt need anything else! Amazing videos by the way :)

As leo was saying “the white sauce” i saw Angel laughing.. his mind obviously went to the gutter lol

Fun and memes are fking great Guga, awesome video.

For the stock it would be a bonus if you saute a bit the vegetable to make them more fragrant and boil the shrimps for just 5 minutes with a lid to keep most of the flavor into the stock 👍

OMG that side dish looks like heaven

amazing side dish!! im spanish and even more specific im from valencia home of paella and rice meals. this type of paella its called arros negre ( black rice in valencia) nice job guga👍👍

Ah, the side dish reminds me of the black Paella I had while visiting Spain, yours looks delicious!

Petition in these experiments to add a fourth variant combining the two non-control methods (in this case the dry aged in ink with the ink compound butter)

I've been a vegetarian for 10+ years but for some reason love your videos and steak series lol. Very interesting!!

Pretty good looking paella. I recommend using short grain rice for paella as it absorbs more stock so it gets more flavourful. 2 to 3 times stock to rice and absolutely no cover.

Would love to see a video where you compare your fav steak experiments

The Merrill Howard reference just made me smile

Of course, the main attraction to those videos are always the wonderful steaks (and yes indeed, that's why I watch and love them, myself). But oh MAN, the side dishes... I thought this many times before, but especially this one is simply phenomenal. Honestly, this is what I would expect to see in a very fancy, expensive and also actually high quality restaurant (so the likes of Salt Bae need not apply, heh). Really, really incredible stuff. Probably doesn't help that I'm a huge fan of all things seafood in the first place :D
