The water drop at 3:48 was so cute!
Pizza is an excellent leftover! You just have to reheat it properly. A dry frying pan is all you need. Just preheat the pan somewhat, and put the cold slice in with no oil. This even works with fresh pizza if it got a little bit floppy during delivery or if you just like a well-done crust. The only trick is that when reheating it from the fridge, you usually need to cover the pan in order to get some heat on the crust; I'll even go as far as to drip a little bit of water (a tsp or so) around the edges of the pan, not touching the pizza itself, to create some extra steam to melt the cheese. Creates perfect pizza every time, and requires no special equipment.

The sauce is dryer, but not by a lot, and the baking sheet re-crisps the bottom somewhat.

I wonder if you are refrigerating or freezing leftover meat? I always freeze and I don't notice it either.
I feel like the biggest key in improving your leftover game is learning how to reinvent or reinvigorate the ones that don't benefit from the extra time. My wife can't stand leftover Mac and cheese, but I find a small spoonful of sour cream gives it back its life and texture as well as giving it a nice change in flavor. And that leftover rotisserie chicken? Makes for amazing quesadillas! Most things just need a minor adjustment or a new use, like the tonkatsu example in the video

When you mentioned that some food do better when reheated in certain things or worse. That implies there's a perfect way to reheat food the proper way for a certain desired taste, texture, and toughness or softness. You guys should make a video about that.
Can we please appreciate the "ways to warm food up" wheel? It's got everything from a Minecraft furnace to slapping

That comment about "warmed over flavour" I found really interesting, because I'm one of those people that has never heard about it and right up until this video, had no idea such a taste even existed. Reheated food definitely does change in taste and texture, but it's usually something I can quantify easily, like "it's drier" or "the gravy has turned really liquid-y". The way it's described in this video ("damp dog hair"??) seems far more drastic than anything I've ever tasted.

"that's what poor people do" bruh poor people don't have leftovers
Love this. As a person who cooks in big batches that are eaten over days or even a full week, this is all very accurate. Being British by upbringing, a lot of the meals I cook are perfect for leftovers: stews, curries, pies with robust stewy fillings, etc. Probably why this system works so well for me. Also, I dread to think how much time I'd spend in the kitchen if I cooked more often. I cook relatively rarely (couple of times a week maybe), but often for 2+ hours due to the nature of these dishes.
This is one of my favorite channels on youtube, I hope you guys don't stop making these
Please keep providing me content like this. Minute Foods has improved my cooking already and I thought I knew everything I could about the basics!
200% on doing something special with the leftovers. Turning yesterday's fajitas into the next morning's heuvos rancheros is just divine. Leftover fried chicken goes great as a garnish on almost any pasta dish (esp. with cheese melted on top). Loved the video and how informative it was for sure. 😁👍

The key is in how you reheat different leftovers - fries, pizza, egg rolls, crunchy things go in the air fryer for 5 minutes. Noodles, rice, bread thats gotten a little dry gets a little water dropped on it or covered in a damp paper towel and microwaved. Almost good as new, pure science. Fruits and veggies a little on the older side go in a shake 🤝

Lots of good tips in here. FYI I frequently make extra of a meal for on-purpose leftovers, that I then mix and match for future meals. For example, a meatloaf makes for great sandwiches the next day; beans can become the foundation of future "bowl" meals with the addition of various toppings.

It is the ONLY rice you should use for fried rice, any decent cook knows that.
cold fried chicken is great. its best when its still got crisp to the outside though. depending on the given batter, how you store it, or how long its been, that may change. if you don't believe me, next time you have popeyes, leave a piece out uncovered just long enough to hit room temp to try. go from there at your preference.
I like both fresh and reheated (using the oven) pizza in different ways. They definitely do seem like two different types of pizza.
Warming Sushi in the microwave? .*flips card*: Straight to jail, right away!
Love it!
One simple thing you can do to keep foods from drying out when reheating them is putting something over them to trap in moisture. For example, say you made a casserole or a hot dish the day before and you want to reheat it. You can serve yourself up a plate, pop it in the microwave for a minute or 2 with another plate placed upside down over the food. It works amazing. The plate on top gives the water vapor coming off of your food during the reheating process, something to condense on. The condensed water vapor will then fall back into your food rehydrating it as it cooks. Water cycle for the win.
Love this
For pizza, if you don't have an air fryer, I recommend heating it up in a skillet on the stove.
I hope you grow big
Glad to know it's not just me that loves pizza on the day after, and now I know why! Our parents were masters of managing food in this way, in an era without refrigeration...
Leftover Filipino adobo and stews taste divine after a while. Yum!
ice cold fridge pizza is amazing. reheated on a pan it's also good. heated in a airfryer is also great. but neither compares to stiff, cold, fridge pizza.
Commenting for the algorithm but also to say that soup always tastes better the day after

There is a weird thing that happens for me with leftover pizza. I’ve found that for the first couple days, leftover pizza reheats fairly well in the microwave, but if it’s like 4 or 5 days old, sometimes the crust gets INCREDIBLY hard before the toppings have even slightly warmed. I think it might be related to something that happens with tortillas. If the ends of a burrito are properly tucked in, the burrito heats really evenly, but if you’ve got Del Taco style burritos, where the top of the burrito is open, the part of the burrito that’s not touching anything goes rock hard. I’ll usually have to tear off the top inch of tortilla and then eat the burrito.

I have a rice cooker so I cook my rice, buckweat and bulgur in bulk. A good idea is to add butter when it's fresh to prevent drying and in a few days when it starts to get dry - reheat it with some baked vegetables and stock or water with soy sauce.
I have more than once added leftover roast chicken to risotto. Add some carrots and celery(or fennel in my case because I am not a fan of celery) while frying the onions, and that might be my favourite twist on risotto.
I had a friend whose pre-teen daughter turned her nose up at cold pizza. I told her, wait until you go to college. You will realize that this is the best thing ever.
