I'd love to see the control steak replaced with an MSG steak for these "better than MSG" videos. We all know regular Guga Steaks are great, but in the original MSG video, the MSG steak was more popular than the control, so it’s hard to get an idea of how these seasonings actually compare to MSG.

you sound so cute saying Zaatar (arabic for thyme) and Boharat (arabic for mixed spices) always love your vids, but this one has a special flavour to it

Baharat is an Arabic word which translates to 'spices' hence the blend you made :) I'm glad you enjoyed it Za'atar is literally my favourite thing - if you want you could mix it with olive oil and spread it on flatbread sprinkle some cheese ( or without) and broil it in the oven trust me its a 10/10 will highly recommend

For future ideas: There are some sauces that can be found all over the Canary Islands, they come in a red and green variety. They might be worth trying, if you can find them. I think the names were Mojo Rojo Picon and Mojo Verde.

@@ijustwannaleaveacommentony6511 "Mojo (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈmoxo], from Portuguese molho [ˈmoʎu], meaning "sauce") is the name, or abbreviated name, of several types of sauces, varying in spiciness, consisting primarily of olive oil, local pepper varieties (called pimienta in the Canary Islands), garlic, paprika (called pimentón in Spain), cumin or coriander, and other spices. Mojo originated in the Canary Islands, where the main varieties are green mojo (mojo verde), red mojo (mojo rojo), and spicy red mojo (mojo picón).[1] Other countries have recipes similar to mojo, where acidic ingredients such as vinegar, lemon, orange, or lime juice may be used."

I love how it went from Greek MSG, to mediterranean MSG to Middle Eastern spicemix within 6,5 minutes or so. I mean, yeah, I can google the answer when I'm gonna make one of these mixes for myself. But some form of consistency wouldn't hurt. In any case, great video as always :)

Zaatar is a Lebanese/Syrian mix we have for breakfast usually with olive oil on a very cooked dough pizza like. It’s based of Greek oregano. I’m Lebanese and know both of these . Bharat is usually 7spice mix used for cooking it gets mixed within food preparation just like salt and pepper .

Zatar on lebneh with some fresh pita is one of my favorite appetizers. Also tried muhammara recently, and that was a huge flavor bomb.

Those edits are on point!

Happy to see one with Zaatar. I learned about it from a food truck chef near my old job. I've been using it ever since.

Interesting. I had never heard of either of these seasonings, very cool.

Cool to see Guga make dough, another awesome side dish.

Guga! from a Viking to a Steak Master! I would like you to try Cheese Whey. Maybe Age it by making it lay in there. Icelandic People used to and still do to preserve sausages. I thought is that it could preserve a steak or maybe even make it more tender!

I tried Za'atar about 4 yrs ago for the first time and now use the seasoning all the time. It is one of my favorites.

Guga you tickle me about how simple your side dishes are ❤but most of us don’t have half the ingredients in our arsenal as you do ❤❤

I got an idea takes a dry-aged pellicles grind it up into a meat powder along with the spices put it on a stake than suvee and dry aged one

the thing about Za'atar is... it's good on it's own... many people eat it witha bread and olive oil as a dib... it is considered the (poor) breakfast in my culture.... you can use it with olive oil and put it on dough, creating a type of flat bread, there are many ways to pronounce its name but in my city it is called (Manageesh). as for Baharat.... it is just the standard spice mix in the middle east and north Africa, the word (baharat) literally means (Spices) in Arabic.

Note: Za'atar has a very highly debated history but, shortly, it most likely has stronger historical ties to Palestine and Egypt than it does with Greece but, it's historical and modern usage is pretty widespread. This is especially important because most of the time culinary histories of all sorts ultimately root down to Greece or China and this is an unusual exception. Tip: Make sure whatever you buy has Hyssop as a primary ingredient. Ps: I love Za'atar and it is easy to find dozens of brands a little more small scale and traditional than Spice Islands (American company in Iowa owned by B&G Foods in New Jersey).

good on you Uncle Guga for talking about men's health and being a role model in a way and using your youtube celebrity for good like this

I feel like that side dish could use some kinda sauce or dip. I was thinking a light creme fraiche of some sort using lime juice as acidity to balance out the other heavy flavors present and add a bit more depth. Might try it at some point.

you are right, we dip it in labneh which is basically strained yoghurt

Guga..one small suggestion for the side dish. Try cooking it on high heat in the Pizza Oven for about 5 to 7 mins. Would come out nice and juicy with an excellent crust.

I bet those would be really good in a compound butter as well!

You should make a side dish where it's eggs sprinkled with za'atar and drizzle of olive oil enjoy with bread😊

OMG man that zoom in on Angel during the side dish killed me!!!! XD

I know that Guga has several different editors for his videos but whoever edited this video was really on their game as they really accentuated what was happening in cool ways which made the video way more entertaining.

That side dish is a very popular main dish from the Middle East called Lahmacun, Lahm b'ajin, or Lahmajun (and several others depending on the country/region), which all basically translate to "meat & bread", it's essentially a Middle Eastern pizza, very easy to make and always on the menu in Lebanese or Turkish etc restaurants.

Señor Editor was on FIRE today with this video. Three cheers for the people behind the scenes

That cardamom and clove mix sounds like a very distinctive flavor profile. Sounds interesting. Seems like something that might work better with pork. So did those to spices stand out or blend in to where they were unnoticeable as individual spices? I'm curious. And as for that side dish. 🎉 I want to try that for sure.

I gotta get better using my flame thrower. You should do a video on how you get good color on your steaks with it.

baharat seasoning is my go to seasoning for whenever I make steak... When I make chuck roast I take it one step further by sticking rosemary leaves inside the steak... you will not disappointed

You should do a battle of the side dishes to see which one is everybody's favorite.

I always love it when Angel speaks. He should speak his mind more. His opinions are always great.

I love how no matter how many times they taste a control steak it’s like they’re eating a guga steak for the first time

Guga + Lebanese is a match I've been waiting for forever ❤

I use Cavenders all purpose Greek seasoning a lot

This is all from the Levant, and there is many mixtures of zaatar each country got a zaatar of its own (lebanon, syria, Jordan, Palestine). And for the bharat its called the 7 spices, it can be bought already done. And the side dish is called lahm baajin its from Levant/Armenia and to take to the next level when its cooked sprinkles some paprika on top and squeeze a lemon too, its incredibly good, to be enjoyed with a ayran drink.

You're right I'm Israeli and our za'tar is different than other za'tars

There are so many people I've heard over my life who swear a good steak never needs more seasoning past salt and pepper. I always thought that was wrong. I always believed that no matter how good something was it could be improved. and this is proof once again. I'm always looking for ways to improve myself and my food so this was pretty great to learn about.

Hahahah the editor went wild with this video, I laughed to the top ! 📈

I actually have a jar in the pantry because my roommate/landlord works at McCormick. Might have to try it on something I don’t usually use regional spice blends save for herbs de Provence

What do you do with the drippings from the sous vide bag? Are there only certain drippings you re-use?

Uncle Guga, I have a correction if i may :D Za'tar literally means thyme, yet we do have a mix called Za'tar, because thyme is the main ingredient in it (thyme, sumac, sesame seeds) however the one you used in this episode is more of Dukkah, unless it did include thyme as a main ingredient but it was not mentioned in the screen at 00:12

Zatar is my favorite spice mix.

Here in Chile we use Merkén, is a traditional condiment in Mapuche cuisine, can you try it Guga?

Guga you're fantastic man. Zaatar is arabic though, with its roots in the levant, mainly Palestine, Lebanon, Syria. In my opinion the kings of levantine cuisine are Damascus it doesn't get better. Give Egyptian Basterma a try as a commenter said, use like bacon. There's also a cheese called gebna roomi (which I suspect is romanian in origin) that should be fun to pulverize and dry age with, then wrap in Basterma, basically egypt's version of Pastrami. There's also Armenian Basterma which I think tastes better. For something super unique, try Jordanian Jameed as another commenter pointed out. That should be incredibly interesting. And then maybe you can take it to the next level and try Renga and Fisikh, these are egyptian salted/fermented fish. Also super unique. Keep it up man.

To the TOP!

this gram system is wonderful to make the dough

I did my own experiment like this using Garam Masala. I was blown away by how different/ delicious it was. Do it!
