    Man, you’ve got a certain thing about you that makes the way you communicate super easy to listen to. It’s understated, it’s not flashy, but it’s super confident and the food you put out looks top notch.
    Can’t wait to see where your channel and other accounts go. Keep it up man!

    Oooh. Definitely learning a lot. I didn't know the lady Hamiltons were designed like that. I just knew about the special quenelle shaped curves. I also love that you mentioned the kitchen scale, since I am thinking of making my own video just about why you should ditch your measuring cups for scales, and ditch recipes that don't use weight. One small thing to note, though, 1ml is really only 1g in water-based liquids with a relatively-watery viscosity, so if I am measuring water, unreduced stock or broth, vinegars, or even milk, I can safely just use 240g per cup of measurement (funny thing about the milk. Even though the fat should be making it weigh less, the lipids allow the milk density to also tighten, so the 236g-240g still holds true). However, when you start adding fats into things or using varied viscosities, it can really change things up. Like heavy cream and most vinegars only weigh 230g per cup, honey weighs 340g per cup, and most cooking fats only about 215g per cup. Not trying to pick you apart, because I still use my scale to measure all of those things, but I figured I'd at least mention that it can vary, and it's an important distinction, since the whole point of using the scale is to increase accuracy.

    Great video! My daughter is 15 and she’s always telling me she wants to be a chef. She’s taking culinary class in HS right now and I can tell she’s really enjoying it. I’m going to get her some of these tools. She actually has cooking tools on her Xmas list 😁 you made my shopping easy!! 🥰😘😘

    This is awesome. I would just like to mention that the 1 gram = 1 mililiter is true only for water. Milk, mustard (etc) have different densities than water, so 1g will not equal 1ml

    I’ve worked front of house in a hotel lounge/restaurant for 12 years. When I first started, it was a celebrity chef chophouse. I quickly developed a crazy amount of respect for the men and woman that work in kitchens. Its not an easy job, and not everyone is built for it!
    I enjoy cooking, but it’s always been just for my family. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to work in a professional kitchen. I feel like I know more than the average person, giving my upscale restaurant experience, but I know I have so much more to learn. Your videos really help! You are super talented, Brandon! Whenever the quarantine is lifted, I’d love to visit whatever restaurant’s kitchen you work in! I believe you’re in so cal, right? I’m in Long Beach 😎

    Since watching your videos I've been using my bowl scraper SO MUCH MORE! 😅 I've had it a-g-e-s and it literally never occurred to me to use it for anything other than scraping dough out of a bowl when I'm baking bread! I'm by no means a chef, I have no desire to work in a kitchen in any capacity. (Think I'd get stressed too easily) but I LOVE cooking and for years I've made two or three trips from the board to the pan with a knife full of stuff and dropped it on the way (which is all of 2 feet away! I'm a klutz!) The only alternative that ever occurred to me was seeing an Asian chef on tv using a cleaver and thinking "Ooh I could fit more stuff on a cleaver than on my knife, maybe that's what I need." Like all the best ideas it's so simple I can't believe it never occurred to me! 😅
    AND the Seive thing!
    Thanks Papi! You're game changer! (again!) 😃
    Right! I'm off to buy a sieve thing and hunt for some beautiful spoons!
