$279 vs $19 Sushi: Pro Chef & Home Cook Swap Ingredients | Epicurious

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 พ.ย. 2022
- Professional chef Yuji Haraguchi and home cook Joe are swapping ingredients and hitting the kitchen to make sushi rolls. We set Joe up with $279 worth of supplies - everything he’d need for his attempt at Yuji's somewhat intimidating recipe. Meanwhile, a modest $19 worth of ingredients was sent back the other way to be elevated into something gourmet by our esteemed pro. As she’s known to do, food scientist Rose dialed in to assist Joe with a few questions he had along the way. Whose sushi are you rolling with?

Yuji is the best. Explains everything and doesn’t look down on any ingredient
A stand up guy for sure
Dawg he got so creative w them rolls
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ this is the video to be doing something like this?
Rather eat a tuna fish sandwich
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ im atheist baby
This was such a fun episode, and their personalities were so chill. They seem like great friends or coworkers to have in your life
Agreed.
YEAH
Yr 600th like
Hey could you provide some help, I turned my grandma into ash, and added salt then drank it, I need psychological help.
@the chungini man I consumed your grandad’s ashes, mr.chugini-man
I love how yuji literally uses everything, he doesn’t waste a single thing in making his sushi
resourceful and creative - some of the qualities of an amazing chef
@@alandeutsch9987 fr
Sanji 💯
Cucumber seeds were wasted
ive noticed that for a lot of the pro chefs, they really know how to utilize their ingredients
The look on Joe’s face when he finished roll was like “I didn’t screw this up!”
such delight, loved it
That look was so genuine!
Lol😂
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ do you really think that proselytizing in youtube comments is effective? "I was living a life of sin, but then I saw a Bible verse in a youtube comment, and I changed my life around." Just doesn't seem realistic to me.
I haven't seen Joe before, what a great home-cook personality.
Needs to get better at food safety though.
@@josephnation9063 Huh?
@@TheRaptor700Rider has a couple of times where he uses a utensil to eat off of and then uses it again
He is chill, kinda the average Joe 🍸
@@josephnation9063 bad habit die hard
"No instructions at all, he did however draw a little sushi guy, I think that's all I need," LOL 😄😂
"So if you are in the ocean and you have a wasabi root, you can just roll right up to a shark and just do this right on their back." Joe with the absolute BEST advice
also "You should get a donabe" "Don't worry about it you're not gonna get it"
Joe is so comfortable in front of the camera and his sense of humour is perfect for this channel, more of him.
the humbleness from the chef is so admirable considering the amount of training a sushi chef goes through.
I love them both. They are so wholesome, it just warms my heart up.
Joe was such a delight! Definitely would love to see him more. Yuji is always a treat, he just feels like that guy that's working a bar or a food stall and you can just sit there and have a welcoming conversation with him.
Led me to think
Can we have two of the experts or home cooks swap their ingredients to make the same dish? Please
Actually, hear me out. I'd love to see two chefs swap ingredients, let them guess what the other one was gonna make with it and cook something completely different :D
great idea!
That’ll be interesting
@@XxKingCraZyxX really great idea!
YES!
I love how Yuji doesn’t act like Joe is an amateur home cook just that he was making a simple meal. Never made fun of it or anything, just made a great meal out of the ingredients.
"If I had to get the goop out of anyones bones in a medical situation I could do it" solidified Joe as the best guest ever
Yuji is a great teacher, absolutely loved listening to him and his attitude is infectious. Joe, well done!
I LOVE JOE. Bring him back for more episodes!
I like that these guys are pretty chill. It makes them seem more relatable. Sometimes I get annoyed by hosts/guest that are super energetic and peppy. Just chill out people.
The initial dismayed reactions (and Joe's periodic recurring moments) when their ingredients were taken away was a great start to set the tone of contrast throughout the video! Both chef Haraguchi and Joe were such good sports as they adapted. Joe's confidence in encountering the limits of his experience made for a humble yet positive sense of humor. Yuji's skill in improvising was amazing. (and I lurve fried salmon skin -- every time I use salmon, I'll willingly triple my meal prep time just for that extra step)
P.S. I have no idea how much time it took Joe to tackle so many unknowns, but every time I've gotten in over my head on a recipe or dish it has been triple or worse my intended prep time. Big props to him, and I hope behind the scenes there was a helping staff hand or three to make sure everyone wasn't stuck on set for like 6 hours!
Enough bro we didn’t need a review
@@ieatdeoderant5913 - Isn't that what the comments are for? They aren't for being nasty, I'll tell you that.
16:30 the way he looks up and say. "i've made sushi" made me happy for him
I am living for Joe. Had me cracking up the whole time. More Joe please!
It's always a treat to watch yuji cook
I always appreciate that he doesn’t add anything, he only uses what he gets. Some pros add or even straight up replace a ton of stuff
Chef Yuji is so kind and humble. He is one of my favorites in this channel ❣️
lol, I wasn't expecting Yuji to go 'the head is dragging!' because the professional chefs usually are bidding their expensive ingredients a tearful goodbye. I also really liked Joe, he's probably the most fearless home cook I've seen on this channel.
Joe is so cool! The type of friend you need. Plus his sushi did pretty well according to the chef. They both have great personalities! 💚💚
this just proves that it doesn't matter how rich the ingredients its about how skilled the chef is
Bruh it proves the exact opposite 😂 that dude who doesn’t know how to make a sushi did one of the best sushi rolls the pro chef has ever tasted
“What’s a Donabe?” “Don’t worry about it, you wouldn’t understand” 😂
Would love too see more of Joe, he has a great presence! and always a good day when Yuji's around :)
I used to work as a waiter at a sushi place and would describe hand rolls as ice cream cones, I had a couple give me a bad review saying I was treating them like they were stupid. Lol will never forget that
insecurity issues i guess
Joe’s fatality was killer😂
Joe was awesome!!! And yuji is a true professional so humble yet so creative. Another awesome episode!!! Thanks Epicurious! Cheers from your biggest fan in Colombia amigos !
I'm a big fan from Colombia too!!! I'm from Cali and you?
@@toursbydee hey ! I'm from Bogota ! :)
Yuji is a sweetheart! Joe is funny as hell. Both are great and I’m a fan of this style of video. More please!!
Fun episode Don't recall Joe before but he seems like a great guy who really is skilled in the kitchen. Yuji is a sweet guy, seems to respect the ingredients (regardless). I loved the crisp skin in the sushi roll.
😂😂”I’m an expert I can remove the fluid out of anyones spine” 🤣hell no!!
I love Joe! This is a formal petition for more Joe 👏
Joe is hilarious ,another great episode
This was delightful! Both Joe and Yuji have wonderful personalities; I'd love to see more of them!
This video was posted during my early recovery period after I went to the hospital for jaw surgery and I just got to watching it today and it was very calm and relaxing and really made me feel good during my recovery period...so thank you.
Both participants are so wholesome😅
Nobody's gonna talk about Joes fatality??? It was on point!!! 😂
Yessssss
Best voice too😂
It'd be cool to see two professional chefs of completely different foods swap ingredients. Like get chef Yuji making some italian food!
My favorite part of every episode is when the home cook gets validation from the pro chef at the end.
Loved Joe's genuine reaction when he finally made the sushi!
Wait as a med student this is the first time I actually saw synovial fluid, this is crazy 😂
The respect, the workmanship, the love... what an episode!!!! I loved it! 🙌
Joe’s vibe is how I imagine Noel miller in like 10 years, he is so funny
The look on Rose's face when Joe says he has a huge tuna in front of him.... priceless 🤣🤣🤣
I love Yuji being so explanatory and helpful and Joe is like learning as he goes
Wow the Pro Chef looked at what he got and said, "I think I can do a lot with this!". I'm going to have to watch the rest later, I'm at work but thats inspiring for sure :D
I had no idea there was that jelly like substance in spines, let alone that we eat it! Learned something new today
Joe's "FATALITY" is so perfect lmao
More of both these guys please! This was a great one.
Yuji's legit impressed reaction at 17:50 is the most wholesome and satisfying thing I've ever seen lol what a great episode
Picks up wasabi and says it's intimidating. Me thinking "Yep, that's expensive and hard to get."
I've been hoping to see Yuji on one of these, he is so sweet natured and such a great cook. And Joe is a great companion.
I LOVE JOE
The new guy is hilarious! Please use him more !!!
I love how authentic this series is
If ever there were somebody destined to be a food scientist… Introducing Ms. Rosemary Trout.
I adore Yuji, he is so down to earth and a sweet guy. Doesn't look down on ingredients good man.
Lmao I laughed pretty hard when he was all "These are .. uh... leaves?"
Yuji!!! LOVE HIM!! Joe is a new face [to me], looking forward to this episode. 🍣 🍣
Ah the biggest challenge of them all, good thing it was not rigged horribly. Though Yuji gave Joe a challenge in making a kaiseki tier sushi piece rather than playing it safe and testing his knife work with just nigiri and Sashimi
This episode had me smiling all the way through, both Yuji and Joe were fantastic to watch and the result was mouthwatering on both counts.
I like when the pro cook is actually able to accurately guess the average cost of the cheaper ingredients. Shows that they're familiar with the cheap, not just the expensive.
I’ll watch any video that has this duo in it. So wholesome.
All I accomplished by watching this video was that I now have a raging craving for some sushi 😂
I hope Joe actually got a job training under Chef Yuji cause that was one excellent blind interview!
I love how Joe looks like he’s learning surgery as he is breaking down the tuna spine
I loved how chill each individual was. Learned a lot from Yuji!
theyre so cool omg, this is well done. i wanna eat sushi now.
So disappointed that Joe doesn't have a cooking show on TH-cam omg
When I saw the ingredients and what they wanted Joe to make I thought they did him dirty but he rose to the challenge.
The warmth and lightheartedness of the playful banter at the end was the perfect way to start my morning
Joe was a great personality! Hope to see more of him
3 seconds into the video and I already like joe.
Can we please have joe on more often hes so funny
We always learn something from these videos - fish marrow, that's a new one! Plus, Joe is a riot, looking forward to seeing more of him!
Let’s give props to Rose she knows everything 😂
great people here, Joe's final product ended up looking amazing, he deserves a job in a high end spot for sure
imo your best episode yet, felt like a dish that was meant to be that expensive, as opposed to just adding random expensive ingredients for the sake of it
I love how nice yuji was to Joe at the end
I didn't know the bone narrow was actually a thing, I thought I was weird for being the only one that was fishing for the white stuff in the middle of the spine when we eat fish. Admittedly it's such a small amount for the small fishes we have but when I get the spine I always separate the vertebrae to get that good stuff.
It is weird
This is one of my favorite episodes, no question.
Joe a home cook that tastes his food, success was always the destiny
This was a fantastic episode. Both chefs are so chill. Vibes off the charts. Bring them back for another PLEASE
The love and positivity between these two was so awesome to see. I hope they get their own show!
Joe was made for this, he has a great voice and is very personable. You would do well to keep him around.
4:42 puts spoon in mouth, and back in bowl, truly a home cook.
the dynamic in this video was just so so wholesome. loved this one, need to see more of these two together :)
How awesome! Yuji and Joe are the best! They made this so great to watch! Thank you
YES! Bring Yugi on more please, he's my favorite chef in this series
I love it when the chefs include a cute sketch with the ingredient list!
both of these people were amazing to watch!
Two great chefs, with absolute humbleness, this warms my heart greatly
I really need to see Yuji and Emily make a dish, they would be the perfect combo
I love that Chef Yuji draws amusing little characters to help encourage the amateur chefs at the end of all his recipes 🥰🖌️
He seems like a nurturing, fun guy ❤
Chef yuji is always so amazing
great vibes during the whole vid
and of course great cooking
i looove this chef! he's such a beautiful soul and unlike all of the other chefs he doesn't look down on any of the cheaper ingredients and that is why he manages to make a masterpiece like that!
“Ima go back to the knife” was funny as heck lmao
I love these videos. Joe is hilarious 😂 and Chef Yuji with a lot of great tips on how to take simple home ingredients to another level. Well done gents.
