Actually the equivalent of MSG which brings out Umami is Asafoetida. Garam Masala is a mixture of whole spices that varies from home to home. There are recipes available online but it’s a combination of coriander seeds, cloves, green cardamom, cinnamon, star anise, mace, nutmeg, cumin, fennel seeds, etc. In South India we use the spices whole at the start as a base flavouring, whereas in the north we tend to use it as a fresh ground powder at the end as an aromatic. Try using Garam Masala in the mixture when making meatballs. It will take them to a different level.

Hi Guga, India is like 32+ countries rolled into one. Each state has its unique set of cuisines. Each state different levels of delicacies and decadence... Come to Delhi, we can start from there and then travel to a few more states in the North, South and Northeast of India. Also there are many versions of Garam Masala and many other unique blends of different spices. I usually prepare custom masala blends for each recipe - freshly ground from whole spices for extra freshness. Also introduce you to a few well known and seasoned chefs and food connoisseurs with a lot of experience.

Okay, that Sous vide machine has me super curious now! I bought wagyu flat irons from Grand Western a bit ago (still haven't cooked em) and wonder how they'd end up using that to cook it.

You need to do a review on Spade L. Ranch beef marinade, I've been using this pairing it with some good ol' Sweet Baby Rays barbeque sauce as a marinade and I say its the best steak I have ever tasted, but i would really like to see your thoughts about it.

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!

I wonder if some spices like this would work best with a quick hot sear first, then season with garam masala, and finish an oven/etc. This way you could get a nice sear without needing to worry about burning the spice. No matter how you do it, it's going to be a compromise of course, but this could possibly improve it. Maybe even add the clarified butter instead of just the spice itself, letting that melt all over the steak while it's coming up to temp. Guess I have some experimenting today - thanks Guga! lol

I'm glad yall are honest about the sear on those steaks. 410 does not seem hot enough to properly sear a steak. Looks good otherwise. I am definitely going to try the garam masala.

Ooo yes this should definitely work, not as India's msg though but just to create a really nice flavoured steak.

Only a pinch of Garam masala is used at the end of cooking as a finishing spice.. coz it’s a very warming spice & should be used sparingly.. base spices are usually ground coriander and cumin along with a pinch of turmeric & chilli powder.

For making dry fry only we used this much spice, for just oil fry use chilly powder, salt, turmeric powder, ginger garlic paste, its enough for beef

Nice that you liked Garam Masala on the steaks! A few pointers on garam masala would be to: -Try not cooking it too much as the flavours and aromas are mild and cooking it for longer periods/harder destroys some of those aroma and flavour compounds, -It's a bit tedious but try grinding your own Garam Masala mix, rather than buying it pre-made(Or at the very least try to buy a Pakistani/Indian branded one). Making your own garam masala from scratch results in overall better flavour and aroma. You can also controll how much you add of what, so you could goo slighlty sweeter, spicier etc. -I think the best application for a steak would be to season the steak with just salt and red chili powder, then making a compound ghee (ghee instead of butter) with garam masala like you did in the video, using a homemade garam masala mix. An extra plus would be to slightly toast the spices before grinding them into the garam masala powder, and maybe not going too fine with the powder.

Yes!!!! You made my video!!!! Love this stuff! Told ya that was some good spice for a steak.

Every state in India has its own combo of main spices they use. Paanch Phoron is used in Eastern India heavily on the Bengal Side, Southern India heavily uses a Mustard, Coconut and Peanut paste.

You should try oyster sauce on a steak... it's used a lot in Thai food

Maybe you can make video about Sasa(indonesia msg) too, bc on your previous video you already make video about mi goreng (Indonesia instant noodle) and you also make experiment with the seasoning.

Try using indian chat masala chat masala is also mix of many spices but with savoury its also a little sour sweet just like everything at the same time and tangy too

omg the Oaxaca cheese egg tortilla creation - just get in my belly

The biggest difference with Guga's preferred sear method with the flame thrower is that mild grey band. Looks like this new tool was starting to introduce it.

Guga-san, please try Kurose no supaisu (JP: 黒瀬のスパイス), it's local spice from Kitakyushu of Japan. You can buy it online or visit Tanga market

What about dry aging with or seasoning with shichimi togarashi

You know how to make a mouth watering video!

Love it! Kudos!! In India, you'd eventually end up making a buffalo or mutton steak. Beef is illegal in most states other than the Northeastern and extreme Southern part of the country, and you could get by with a pork but it is still extremely hard to find one. So better get yourself acquainted with a buffalo/goat/sheep steak beforehand.

Next up try the thing that we all have on our steaks here: montreal steak spice, which is basically the same rub that goes on montreal smoked meat, our version of Pastrami... come to think of it, maybe also look into Montreal Smoked Meat too. Could even be worh a visit at some point.

Thanks for another great video, Guga. How do I apply the 15% off to the purchase price of the machine on Amazon. Thank you!

I've done a few steak experiments with indian spices but the spices generally burn too quick on the sear. Maybe this searing kitchen device helped prevent that a bit.

What do you call that side dish really wanna try this once

I love using a bit of garam masala in my BBQ rub. Been doing it for years.😊

Searing the steaks in that nonstick crap really brooke my heart Guga!

Guga ,you should try Masako or Royco to season the steak

Guga .. you HAVE to dehydrate a several different kinds of greens, grind it into a powder, use it as a spice rub and see if angle loves or hates it !

Great video Guga, if you are planning a trip to India, try not to get stuck with the common tourist spots in North India. There are so many amazing cuisines in the South as well. I would suggest you visit Chidhambara Vilas in Pudukkottai, Tamil Nadu for a taste of the Chettinadu cuisine, but fair warning, this will be spicy even for some Indian people, but trust me its worth it. Visit Kurnool in Andhra for their rayalaseema cuisine, and any place in Kerala for their cuisine.

I'm from Lucknow and my bias towards my city aside overall food in south India is better.

If you go to India you've got to visit the mountains to get that clean fresh air! Come out to Dehradun and I promise you won't be disappointed in the food or the views!

Try using a combination of black stone flower powder (Kalpasi) and fennel seed powder (saunf)... Ups the game on any meat dish...

Guga here in India you can taste whole lot variations in food., For example in Eastern part of India is known for fishes., Southern part is known for Spices , In west (especially Gujarat) try out sweets and veggies

Bro, come to Goa!

What was that machine he fried the steaks in?

We daily use garam masala in our beef preparation or in any meat...love you guys from india

Hey Guga... you are always welcome in any part of India. At every 20 KM, you will have different taste of food. And your taste bud is really going to acrivate its all cells to taste all flaours of indian food. 🥰😍😁

If you're visiting India, you should definitely come to Kolkata. It is one of the few cities in India where beef is legal. So, you'll be not missing out on your favorite thing. You should try out the local restaurants here.

Damn Guga you killing us with this video ❤❤

try kasuri methi also. It is very underrated Indian spice.
