I was watching this on my TV and had to hop on my phone just to leave a comment. That steak/pan cross section is hands down one of the best things I’ve ever seen in any type of entertainment media. Not even high cost productions have even done something like that ! I couldn’t tell if it was real or not at first, even if it was just graphics, it would be impressive. But the fact that it’s real AND cooking at the same time just blew my mind. And all of those close ups with the animations on it. Your channel is easily one of my favorites and I appreciate and admire all the hard work you’ve been doing to provide top of the line quality for our entertainment. The fact that this video is a month old and only has 33k views is absolutely a crime. TH-cam needs to start pushing your content harder cause this sets an entirely whole new bar for creators, not just on this platform, but all platforms. Bravo 👏🏼
The production value of these videos is crazy. Your videos seem professional enough to almost have a Food Network watermark in the corner, but also amateur enough that it still feels like a TH-cam video. I applaud you.
The production value of this video is insane and your knowledge is amazing. Never stop making videos, i was a bit worried for a while when your last video was like 3-4 months ago and now i see that i have 3 weeks old videos to catch up to!!
This seems so obvious when it's laid out but I've never considered it before this video. This is what all good chefs go for, the process of consuming the food prepared and it's enjoyment. Dude, great video and outstanding production. The information and way it's delivered is why you're one of MAYBE 3-4 people I am subscribed, why I thumbs up, and why I have your notifications on. You get the views because you provide legit content and don't go for clickbait. You deserve the success because you're working hard for it. I will be a customer of the thermometer too, very soon.
Becoming my go-to channel along with Kenji. When I was culinary director at a huge grocery store back in 2013 my co-worker and I messed around with your books quite a bit. Thanks for the video content. The pan cross-section is mind blowing.
Excellent video and good experiments for science in the kitchen. Theoretically, seared meat, having a drier surface, will cause us to eliminate more saliva during chewing, since it is essential to be able to better dissolve the components and feel the flavor better. It's the same thing that happens when you chew on a crunchy cookie versus a softer cookie. But that is the good thing about science, that we are always thinking critically. Greetings! 👍🧪
"Magic is just science we don't understand yet." Chris, I love how you both challenge and confirm everything our grandma's taught is about cooking. Truly, appreciate what you do. Thank you!
So, I believe that the myth is that searing your steak first would seal in the juices as opposed to the reverse sear technique. Not just searing in general. Also, I believe Kenji Lopez-Alt did this experiment awhile back, testing the moisture retention on chicken breasts that were seared first or seared after cooking and found no improvement. He also tested the difference between wet vs dry brining vs no brine or marinade.
Been watching since I saw your hexclad video. Great stuff dude. I love the effort you put into each video. You really go above and beyond to make these videos perfect
This is awesome. I'm a big fan of the MC books, got the series sitting on my shelf in front of me. A video series that captures some of the magic of the books is something I didn't know I needed, but I'm here for it.
Thanks Chris, so if i understand you correctly - by taking moisture out of the browned edge of the steak during the searing process, your mouth needs to fill with more saliva, as part of the way we eat foods which are drier and need more 'work' to help chew up and wash down to our stomach. And then because your mouth is wetter, you'll perceive the pink bit in the middle as relatively more 'juicy' even though it's actually covered in a dry crust. Presumably if you had trimmed off the outside of the seared steak - leaving just the medium rare fleshy bit - it would have the same mouthfeel as a similarly trimmed piece of sous vide steak when compared. The extra saliva is only happening because you have a bit of dry crust to chew and swallow. The logical extension to this is that instead of searing, you could get the same effect in terms of extra 'juice' by popping a piece of dry cardboard into your mouth with the pink fleshy meat. It would save you some cooking effort. Unfortunately, while the cardboard would contribute to extra saliva, causing some 'weight gain' in the cardboard, it's not as tasty as seared steak crust. I suppose this is why people sear their sousvide steaks after cooking, rather than simply serving them with a pile of shredded toilet roll tubes.
the best thing you can do for your steaks is a dry brine, salt them 24hrs beforehand heavily and then put them in the fridge with only a paper towel covering them. This draws out the moister of the steak and makes them tender. Then salt and pepper both sides before you put them in the smoker. Then reverse sear in a smoker. 1-1/1/2 hours in a smoker at 100°c and then sear off. Perfect steaks every time. Cook to whatever your guests desire, the reverse sear allows a medium rare without too much trouble, but you can easily go to however you want.
Fantastic video!! Cutting a pan in half to show a cooking method was great. The saliva section was informative and I am glad you did it. I have subscribed.
I'm a new cook (been teaching myself using various sources) and I love a good scientific deep dive! Thank you so much for your videos and the unique information!! I'm definitely not overlooking the graphics of the section of the steak cooking in the pan - as an engineer, that's glorious. :)
Despite your final comments you did in the end demonstrate how and why this works with an experiment (I wont question the validity of the experiment that would be taking it too far for its purpose, it seems plausible enough to me) but that brings it all back science, thank goodness. Thank you for doing these, absolutely great.
Great video. Taught me something useful, interesting, obscure, and obvious in retrospect. And that pan footage was beautiful to behold. From now on, I'll be thinking of the implications of the impact of food on our senses affecting taste and texture as food is chewed. I'd never considered how deliciousness changes the environment of the mouth, changing the taste. But of course. Now I'm eager to learn more about how our response to deliciousness is part of why things are delicious at all. An underexplored subject, worthy of a great book. Keep this up and you're going to get TV show offers. But you might be even better doing this here on TH-cam. I'm sure your channel growth is rapid. One viral video could make you an A-list food TH-camr. You'll have hundreds of thousands of subscribers soon. Content of this quality, if produced regularly, will garner more than a million subscribers.
Chris doesn't just answer questions from his experience as a chef, he breaks down the science and gathers empirical data to produce tangible results and hard numbers that can't be denied. You can't argue with that.
I knew that searing, sealing in the juice HAD to be a myth. But I ALSO knew that a well seared steak SEEMED more tasty and juicy. I've never been able to reconcile these "facts". Now I CAN!!! Thank you, young man for an EXCELLENT and informative video. If I can make a steak even a TINY bit better, it's worth the effort. Thanks again.
Very interesting video. There are a number of studies that measure salivary flow rates for different flavors. It would have been interesting to add seasoned steaks to the mix. Also since chewing plays a part in saliva production I’d be curious to see if a tough cut of beef produces more moisture then a tender cut.
I have your combustion thermometer. About to take advantage of your sale to purchase the same for two of my sons who enjoy cooking. Interestingly they are both Oregon State Troopers. I am an M.D. So much for following in dad’d footsteps. Lol My comment on the video. I have cooking Sous Vide with the Joule for a long time. Certainly, at least with most proteins, a sear, either before or after cooking is necessary both to develop the tasty Maillard reaction and for visual appeal. It would seem that having a Sous Vide cooked steak, without a sear in any part of the cooking process, introduces an unfair variable. Especially when using saliva production as your main indicator of juiciness Thank you so much for your expertise Michael
The taste of food has always been subjective. My example: Back in the day when I worked for telephone repair service (Working outdoors in all weather conditions) I could sometimes be running late for work and skip breakfast. By 9 o'clock I was hungry as heck for eggs and bacon. Stopping at a local diner the anticipation of eggs and bacon and sausage, toast, brown beans and coffee would make the "taste" heavenly ! The same breakfast at home at the kitchen table could never match that late morning diner experience. The same thing applies when family gathers for BBQ steak, baked potatoes, steamed veggies, wine and laughter. The food tastes so much better. When really hungry even the cheeseburger will taste better. Great video !
one of the main reasons for the perpetuation of this myth is that for many "experts" the ONLY valid technique for searing a steak is to flip it once. when scientifically the opposite is actually true (as you have already demonstrated last year)
Incredible. it makes so much sense. I know that in addition to salt, bitter foods like lemon and vinegar can stimulate salivation. Perhaps adding a side dish or topping to your steak that had these (or even just a vinaigrette with a salad before the meal) would increase the perception that the steak was even juicier? Like "revving up" the salivatory glands.
Your conclusion is mind blowing. Never considered a factor aside from the food, saliva, would influence the taste of food at all, but once you said it, it made perfect sense.
Cut the pan with a bandsaw, and carefully slices the steak at various times. Pretty much how I did things for Modernist Cuisine too, just harder in video because you can't Photoshop out every mistake as easily.
I guess it is the same principle that applies to more "crusty"bread like sourdough. The crust makes us produce more saliva and not only does it make the bread taste better, but it also helps digestion by "pre-digesting" it in our mouths. Amazing video!
Hey Chris, great job as always! I do have a question though….. Would there be a difference in actual juiciness between hard sear method and the constantly flipping method of cooking the steak?
I love the dedication to challenge your beliefs. I also have a question, why does the seared piece have a greater measure of juices gained? Is it really causing the mouth the produce more saliva? I understand the premise of parching your mouth the yield start from an equal starting point. Yet are you weighing only the food? Or are you weighing the food plus the retained saliva create form chewing? What if the dedication zone of the seared piece being drier is cabals of collecting more saliva than the non-seared and that could mean it’s advantage of saliva retention yields a greater weight gain. I think you could answer this question using your cotton balls. After you remove the chewed piece of steak you could add cotton balls you previously weighed dry and then use them to collect the remaining saliva produced from chewing the steak. This could account for all the saliva produced and could answer if the seared steak is produces more saliva or if it’s the same amount saliva but rather it’s seared crust allows for more juices to be retained than the non-seared? Perhaps this is a moot point, where the retention is the factor to indicate juiciness. It’s interesting none the less, because it appears the intent is to determine which stimulates the most saliva production as indication of yielding juiciness, so if that’s the case, you would need to account for all the saliva produced, that retained in the chewed steak and that in the mouth. Also what if there is a factor of the non-seared having the capacity to loose more moisture from chewing where the seared steak has less moisture to loose. In that case you would need to evaluate on a curve to account for moisture to lean mass ratio. Also variations in intramuscular fat could be a factors so an exception lean muscle would be ideal to avoid intramuscular fat discrepancies. Not trying to be rude, just was a fun exercise analyze your experiment. That’s what makes your content fun!
@@horrorhotel46290just knowledge. Applications can be determined later. If the experiment shows it's basically the same as an unseared steak, then there really are not any potential improvements to be made. But if it's perceived to be just as good as a seared steak, then that opens possibilities. Like maybe a synthetic sear can be created that you just sprinkle on. Maybe not ideal for an actual steak, but good for say slices that end up in a sandwich.

I would never have thought of taste causing more saliva and hence a “juicer” steak.
I was wondering why the thumbnail was blurred out. I'm just glad his mind didn't trick him into thinking those cotton balls were marshmallows.
No one will ever think about this other than you. Great experiment!! Please keep up the good work!

Fantastic work as always!
Came for the infotainment, stayed to try to figure out whether or not these graphical displays were incredible engineering or overtly expensive CGI.
Real video. Cut the pan in half with a bandsaw and used multiple shots for different exposures, then composited everything together.
What's up with that super thick steel bowl at 2:36 where can I get one of those!?
Wow...another great video. You always make the science behind cooking interesting. I'm blown away by your cut away frying pan.
