He certainly proves evven Chefs won't shy away using "canned".
It just blows my mind that we get to learn from a freaking Noma chef, and the emphasis on inexpensive ingredients makes sure that this knowledge and skill is accessible for people. Such a cool concept and fun to watch. Thanks Chef!!
I don't usually recreate a recipe straight off YT videos because of lack of reviews, but after so many delicious and unique recipes, I've learned to trust Dan enough to cook it myself straight away. Also, thank you for always providing vegetarian options.

I love this show! I love Dan! The recipes are so minimalistic, in a good way. His tips and techniques are what I'm here for, they are absolute gold! And he's so chill! I feel like he's the kind of guy who not gonna yell at you to fold the laundry but bring it to you and ask if you want help. AKA the perfect man.
Everyone, I just tried the salad, it’s a huge success and doesn’t take that much efforts either! Thanks again Dan, will definitely try other menus too!
Crazy that the bell pepper was the most expensive ingredient in that first recipe!
Yummy!! I am totally gonna make all of these, except throwing that bean salad in a tortilla or over tortilla chips. 😋
The Instant Pot is the easiest way to always have beans on hand for cheap and cook so quickly. The beans come out so creamy in a half hour.
Another great video! Love that you use unpretentious and accessible ingredients. Can’t wait for the next one.

I am in love with these videos. I’ve made so many recepies already, they are amazing! And Dan is so enjoyable! Thanks to YOU for taking the time to make these videos for us!🥰 ps: most people that don’t like cilantro is because of a gene mutation that makes them more sensitive to a molecule that’s present both in soap and in cilantro, which makes cilantro taste like soap!🌸
What a great idea of a series. Epicurious has the best chef ideas. I've made the Roteserrie chicken salad over and over. The black bean breakfast looks wonderful. The other two look great too. Just love those corn muffins.
Schnmokin' hot and yummy - nailed it again. Love this series. Can you please share some non cooked meals for keeping cool in the scorchio summer we're having?
Thank you for sharing. Your instructions were very clear.
Thank you, I bought a smoked turkey wing for a gumbo (which I never made) and I have lots of canned black beans. I'll make all these recipes and great tutorial.
Love it! I'm definitely trying the breakfast one in the near future, and the rest... eventually. Thanks for the ideas!
“I need as much encouragement as possible to actually eat breakfast” can’t relate
Here in Mexico, many of us enjoy our black bean soup with chicharron. It gives the beans a ton of flavor.
These look great! Very keen to try all of them

As a kid he wanted to grow up to be a corn muffin 😭
Lol, I'm sticking with soaking and cooking dry black beans. Soak 8 to 12 hours (over night or all day) drain off soaking water, rinse in cool water for a few minutes, put into a rice cooker (I have a 6-cup Oster rice cooker) with chicken or vegetable broth (bowl should be no more than ⅔ full), put lid on bowl, turn on rice cooker. Check liquid level every 30 minutes, top of with broth or water to keep beans covered with liquid. Cook until beans are tender; I cook the beans for 2 hours. This can also be done on the stove in a traditional stock pot over low heat; still check the liquids & top off as needed to avoid burning the beans. A 2-lb bag of dry black beans cooks up to the equivalent of at least 6 to 8 cans of black beans, and costs the same as about 3 or 4 cans of black beans. I prefer the economy of the dried beans; they're not too difficult to cook, just takes some planning and preparation.

DUDE! YOU ARE A SMART CHEF. AMAZING FUN COOKING..LOVE IT!..
So, I also eat bell peppers like an apple, much to my husband's chagrin. Also, Jiffy's mix tastes very similar to my mother's cornbread, so I love it! Final thing: How on earth did you get the muffin wrappers to come off so cleanly?!?! Especially since you didn't grease them!
I had black beans in my freezer that I'd precooked with a ham hock and mirepoix. So I left out the turkey wing and veggies and added the other ingredients (chipotle pepper, tomato paste, and more garlic because why not). 3 cups of water was too much so I just let it cook down to a consistency I liked. The extra flavors rounded out my original recipe, plus the extra cooking (30 mins) gave my beans a much nicer texture. Served over rice...chef's kiss 😘😘 Thanks, Chef Dan!

As soon as the heat and humidity leaves, I will be baking up those corn muffin. I will be putting my egg, tomato, spinach and feta mix (Starbucks copy cat recipe) on those muffins. The salad and stew look great and never thought of buying a smoked turkey part, but I will now. Thank you.
Wanting to be a corn muffin as a child is a universal chef fever dream. 11/10 love this series
I love that you make videos about how to make delicious food with humble ingredients. Write a cookbook, PLEASE. I'll help you write it, if you need help!
Breakfast looks divine. I'd rather have red pepper condiment. Gonna try it. Thanks for the vegetarian friendly recipes.
Finally our July video has dropped hope we get at least one more this month as you haven’t posted in some time perhaps your busy but maybe you been thinking of a way to surprise your fans
Would you folks please put the recipes or recipe links in the video description? I generally watch channels with recipes I want to make, and it is very helpful to have the written recipe to reference. Thanks! Oh, gross. You guys are Conde Nast.
The seeds of a chili are not hot/spicy at all. The membrane that wraps around the seeds is the spiciest part of the chili. So it is easy to see why most people think the seeds are spicy.
Common food myth but no, the seeds aren’t the spiciest bit. It’s the ribs or white pith that holds most of the capsaicin. Seeds are spicy because they’re nestled among that pith and so become hot through contact.
I never liked peppers until recently now I love them.
I would scoop the top of the muffins, put the beans inside and replace the top.
I don't eat meat but that turkey wing recipe looked CRAZY delish!
I'd love to see a challenge where Dan has to make 3 meals under $10 using X ingredient--but the catch is the meals have to be appeasing for a family with picky children at home!

After all, thinking of little kids I know and when I was a kid myself, I don't know how many children could eat many of the meals in this video because of how spicy there are--a good number of kids would find jalapenos and chipotles to be painful in the mouth.
"This might not be spiy at all." "..." "Thats's spicy... that's very spicy." *coughs Laughing so hard about that one! What a great guy, perfect fit for this channel!
We want a tofu episode!
Bonus dessert: 1 brownie mix + the entire contents of one can of black beans (including water, purée smooth). Bake as directed (don’t add oil or eggs or anything)
… nest of Shredded lettuce under the salad/sour cream on the corn muffin before the black beans… Nice recipes… God bless America…🇺🇸
I make jiffy muffins all the time and I like them. But I also wish I knew how to make them like store bought with the dense cake like sweetness
I haven’t bought canned beans in a while… now that has to change!

Chef, I disagree one does not have to "soak" dried legumes aka beans as it relates to this video. Additionally you have complete control over seasoning components. Now this is not intended to deminish the value or use of canned beans and they are quite handy at times, but in my humble opinion one should always have an assortement of dried legumes they enjoy on hand.
0:23 True, but there are easier ways to cook dry beans. One of them is to put them in the instant pot if you have one. You do not need to pre-soak them. Just put the amount of beans with the amount of liquid you want, and all the ingredients. Cook in high pressure for 35 minutes, and boom, you have freshly cooked black beans. Instant pot is relatively cheap, and has a lot of uses, so you get a lot of bang for the buck. You could cook, big batches of beans and freeze some of it. Dry beans are extremly cheap and in my opinion, freshly cooked will always taste better than canned beans. Not to mention that you can make them how you would like them. Doing something like, cooking it on your stock of choice, it will end up amazing. In the long run it will be cheaper, healthier and tastier that way, with little to no effort.
I loathe the taste of black beans and even I thought this looked good! Also dont feel bad about wanting to be a muffin, I wanted to be a bin lorry/garbage truck. Not an operator, the truck itself
