When you compare Josh to Jamie.. Both put their "spin" on it, except Josh remains authentic and understands the dish, while Jamie just... no.

the commentary of uncle roger is less educational but funnier whilst brian's is more educational but still comedical so it's a nice balance

Seeing Justin whang as a patron made me happy. He's one of my fave youtubers. I'm a new sub so currently binging all of these reactions. And love Joshua so this video had 3 greats. Love this channel ❤️

Honestly it depends on the rice when you're measuring water. Recently my mum was making soggy rice all the time. I checked it out and realised she changed brands, so I taught her a trick: when you realise the rice is cooked and it's still wet, take the lid off and release the steam while keeping the stove on low. To prevent burning, gently fold the rice to allow more steam to come out. It may take an extra 10mins but the rice will eventually start drying out and firming up. Welcome to thermal dynamics ala kitchen. Gotta love science 👩🏾‍💻🍚👩🏾‍🍳

I would love to see your version of egg fried rice, then an Uncle Roger review of it, then a review of Uncle Roger reviews your egg fried rice. That would obviously be a little silly, but I'd still love to see it

Throwing down the challenge: there’s a way to make fried rice using fresh rice. Go back and watch the fried rice series by Alex the French Guy. There’s a technique taught to him by a Michelin star Cantonese chef that allows the use of fresh rice and still creates the individual slightly dry grains.

Good luck. Try not to get roasted by Uncle Roger when you're famous.

It doesn't matter if it's the same dish that's been reviewed ten times already, I ALWAYS learn something new in every video! Please don't stop making content! I'm learning so much! I didn't actually know you should fry the shallots with completely cold oil at the beginning. After you explained it, it made a ton of sense, though. And opening day is coming up! Best of luck! If I ever make it out to that side of the pond, I'll definitely swing by. Random question, though... to be considered for the giveaway, do we have to comment that we want to be considered, or is it an automatic thing? Because I would like to join the lottery, but I hate commenting being all like, "I want free sh*t please!" I would just much rather comment on the contents of the video. I ask because all three previous winners had commented about wanting the merch, so I was getting curious.

I appreciate the extra effort you put in to expound a lot of the culinary arts and techniques. It really does add to the video - especially with your humor!

I just stumbled into your reactions today, and has been binging on them for hours now. Great content, keep it up, man!

Nothing wrong with putting scallions in early if you're using it to flavor the oil. In Korean we make "pah gilum" or scallion oil and that seems to me like what he's doing it here. Flavoring the oil with the green onions so I think there's a difference in what Josh is doing here and what Jamie did in a previous video. I dunno what Jamie was doing there but it didnt add to his dish.

Just started watching your videos man! This has quickly become one of my favorite things to watch! Thank you chef Brian.

Hey Chef Tsao, I really enjoy your reactions! Mostly because they're not just reactions: they're very informative and have a lot of substance to them. A lot of other content creators just react and rehash stuff, but you offer in-depth explanations and culinary knowledge that, although I dunno if I'll ever use, I nevertheless fully appreciate. Keep doing what you're doing! You're awesome!

Damn that looks good. Lookin forward to yours! show em how its done chef 💪

It is amazing to see how far you've come, Chef! Been following you on Instagram for years now because you've always been one of my favorite chefs. Your knowledge and taste in music was the initial reason, but your KZread videos have taken off and I couldn't be more happy for you about that. These reactions are a wonderful mixture of information and humor, and this one was no different. Being outside of Philly myself, I hope to one day try food at both your new sandwich joint venture and at Beauty and Essex. Best of luck Chef, I'll keep on supporting ya!

Just found your channel. Loving all the knowledge you have! Learning a lot🤘🤘

Man I only just now discovered this channel, but I'm binging it. Weissman is making videos that uses his Western Style to make things as best as they can be (in Western Style). Uncle Roger is a comedian who knows how to cook Authentic Asian Dishes, and makes hilarious commentary over other recipes. Chef Brian then takes my two favorite channels, and adds all the Professional Knowledge that I'm craving over the top of it. Love it!

You are adding a whole additional level to Uncle Rogers videos, fuiyoh! Looking forward to see your Egg Fried Rice video!

When are we going to see YOUR version of fried rice? And then see Uncle Roget reacting to your fried rice? And then you reacting to Uncle Roger reacting to your fried rice?

I'm excited for reactions to start coming out from his video he released last night. It had me absolutely rolling from start to finish.

Thanks for this video, I was waiting for it 🔥🔥

Gotta say, the inception triple dunk on the jam was so satisfying XD The extra spit takes from both Uncle Roger and you just adds so much to the experience

Thanks for standing up for the classics. You occasionally feel that all you get is someone's take on something and it's never the thing that is actually imprinted on your brain, if you grew up with the... origins... The right classic takes you home wherever you are. A take rarely does.

Good advice on getting a first guitar. You get all your lifestyle-arts pro tips in one place, what an efficient channel!

Love the educational/scientific moments in the video, for example with the sugar t the edges of the onions, etc. Really sets it apart!

9:05 - I'm hearing this often, especially from Uncle Roger's videos (used to excellent comedic effect, I know), but I find that 'feel' is the common way of home cooking everywhere. My father made crackin' baked beans in a crock pot. I asked him how much of certain ingredients he'd put in and he said he didn't know exactly how much, he just knew when it was right. It would have been the same for my grandmothers; I watched them both cook and bake dozens of times and not once did they use measuring utensils. 'Feeling' in home cooking, I'd say, is the common way just about everywhere.

Jamie Oliver: Italian-trained chef, has been to Asia some. Gordon Ramsey: French-trained chef, has been to Asia some. Josh Weissman: Japanese-trained chef, deeper grounding in Asian cuisine. All three put their spin on the dish, but one did it without fucking it up and pissing off Uncle Roger too much.

Idk if anyone know this but, in Indonesia, we usually use the spring onion for the mixture of fried egg. If you see the recipe of Telur Dadar, it should've use that

loved the reaction to the jam moment xD. Josh is a weird dude but i love his borderline bougie cooking also love the educational twist on things man and content

The aside on deep frying made me so happy as a food nerd. As Alton described it; it's like cooking with a pan made of the t-1000. You are doing the useful type of education while being thoroughly engaging and fun.

Would want you to review more of Joshua's videos. I enjoy watching them so much.

There are 3 different kinds of sesame oil used in Chinese cooking. Depending on the exaction method, some of them can be used for high temp cooking (for example, in dishes like ginger duck stew 姜母鸭 or sesame chicken stew 麻油鸡). The kind used for high temp cooking is usually the dark variety and less fragrant. The ones we can easily find in north America asian grocery stores are machine chopped and pressed. They are dark reddish brown, medium in fragrance and not great for high temp cooking but will tolerate SOME heat. My favorite kind (and the most fragrant) is from northern China. It is stone milled then oil is exacted using hot water. they do not tolerate any heat at all. it's usually used as condiments after the food is done cooking (eg: adding a few drops to a bowl of noodles or cold dishes) because they would char almost immediately in a hot pan due to the high water content. Sesame blend oil are often advertised as sesame oil as well, but I don't consider that real sesame oil

Will be in NYC a couple times this year, and definitely will be checking out Mission Sandwich Social, and am telling people I know in NYC to check it out

One night at 4 am I was looking at your vids randomly suggested by KZread. Now I'm a fan. 🤗😂

I came across this channel a few months ago and have enjoyed every video I've seen. Great content Chef. Keep it up man.

Been waiting for this one. Lets goo baby

Nice video . I’ve been watching all your and Uncle Roger’s reaction to many of Asian foods for last three days and I can say I really enjoyed and will keep watching you guys. And Joshua, I am for that he is using measurements for his video so amateur cooks like we also can make it and taste. Again Bravo

I would say in my experience with some cooking in restaurants that untoasted sesame oil would be used at the start of cooking and toasted sesame oil would be used as a finisher, I do agree that the way Joshua used it is a bit weird but you there are some restaurants that use it at the start.

Watching the double reactions is really giving me a good cooking education. After the last video, I finallly stopped burning my rice on stove-top!

Can't believe this hat can be won worldwide! Can't wait to come back to NY and experience your new joint in Brooklyn. Cheers from Marseille!

You should do a react to Nats What I Reckon videos, they're a mix of good cooking, humour and heavy metal! Great stuff as always, really informative

İ really like your comments . Knowing that I listen to a professional metalhead-cook reacting to a professional comedian-cook reacting to a professional home-cook , that's awesome!

I love how everytime you show the Beat Bobby Flay challenge how Bobby just looks put out as f about getting beat

I have no idea why I keep watching your videos i don't even cook, but i keep coming back

I use sesame oil to sear off my steaks. I love the mild flavor that imparts on my steaks. I also use it to fry shallots off if I'm making something like a mushroom sauce. I love the notes. The heat kills the powerful flavor so it doesn't overcome the meat, but instead gives it a nice, accenting note.

I have my stuff together and I've never needed a zojirushi. The $20 cooker is good enough. My old one has been working for the last 20 years. It also plays happy birthday when the rice is done.

Whang!!! Didn't expect to see him mentioned here!

Great video as always!

I like your reactions you are definitely making the reaction transformative however one thing i would like to see is pics of the devices you speak of

Excited for Mission!

Love these videos!

Hi chef. I think you need to volume up background sound a bit so we can hear clearly. It is barely can be heard. Hope you read this and fix it in future.

I'm loving your video reactions to reactions!

Hey Chef Tsao! I’ve watched many of your videos and noticed the string joy hat. I figured that you were a guitar player! How many guitars do you have and which one is your favorite/go to?

Love to see you check out the Cowboy Ken fried rice Uncle Roger keeps mentioning. Have a great Easter 🐣

Fun tip for home cooks who don't want to wait until the next day for fried rice, do a quick parboil on the stove 1-2 minutes and then move the rice to bamboo steamer (or a stainless steel one) with cheese cloth or a thin cloth napkin and steam it 20-30 minutes or until al dente. You get nice separated grains without adding much moisture, ready to fry after an hour drying in the fridge.

I feel like the trend of going cheaper to start is the best thing to do in general. That's the way I went with my knife sharpening equipment and knives. Bought some cheap stones and a cheap knife knowing I wanted to buy a very nice knife and be able to take care of it. Now I have a pretty nice set of stones and some pretty nice knives. Plus now I'm looking into setting up a small side business sharpening and repairing knives 👍

Oh my god, can't wait for the "red" Thai curry you react to

I agree with your guitar advice. I've had 2 guitars thinking I was going to play it, and never stuck with it. Thankfully it only put me out about $300 total 😂

Heya Brian, The only time I see sizzling green onions acceptable is if you were to make scallion oil as a finishing or dipping oil. Agreed? Been binging on your reviews and learning some stuff from you too!

Here, in Brazil, we have something to wash/soak the rice before cooking it. If you search for "lavador de arroz" you'll probably find it, it doesn't have a proper name. We don't use rice cooker here that much and Brazilian rice is usually shallow fried with garlic and salt before cooked.

Been a fan of all three of u guys. Joshua, you and Roger. In that order.

I can't wait for the video collab Uncle Roger and Josh did while he was visiting him during his tour. I hope you will review it too.

I would like to see Chef Tsao’s version of what he reviews, it’d be awesome!

bro, still waiting on YOUR fried rice video. Also, he added the sauce with the sesame oil at the end so while the sesame oil did catch a little heat it hasn't heated up enough to denature.

Watching from Philippines, I love your content it is fun and also educational. Wish you success for your sandwich shop.

Hi Chef, I agree with the day old rice BUT sometimes I don't think of it. I've had good results making rice in the cooker, taking out the metal pan from inside, then pouring water along the outside of the pan to cool it down. Once the metal is cool to the touch I toss it in the fridge, and do all the other food prep. With about an hour or so to rapidly cool it makes for a pretty good alternative to day old. Schedule wise it's super easy to throw rice in a cooker right after work before you do anything else including maybe a short trip to the grocery store for fresh ingredients. Not exactly 3 star Michelin advice but an option vs hot rice for the casual person cooking for themselves at home.

Love your reactions. I also have learn more from watching your videos.

I have the Zojirushi Neuro Fuzzy, and it will auto correct your rice up to a point, If you have too much water, or too little water, it will adjust how it cooks the rice to get a perfect result each time

I want to try that egg fried rice. Not something most people could do at home, but cool to watch.

I love these uncle Roger videos you have been doing!

After watching so many videos I finally subscribed lol

I know it might sound odd, but after hearing about the traeger and smoking everything, I had the thought of using it to smoke everything you'd need to make sushi beforehand, idk how great that would be but that sounds like an interesting experiment at least

Love the reactions keep them up

React to anything from ChefPK his motto is always "Play with your food" i think it'd make for a good episode

I have at least 2 rice cookers but I always end up traditionally steaming my rice. Also, speaking about woks, my mom owns at least 6, mainly to decorate our garage.

indont know much of elec coockers but i in my home use pressure coocker 1liter variant. put washed rice, fill it with water till finger knuckle, close it, then onto flame and one whistle the rice comes perfect all the time.

gl with the opening

I am definitely going to stop by opening day to support.
