- The tables have been turned today as Ben is set the ULTIMATE CHALLENGE. With Jamie and Ben left alone in the studio, what better than to task them with another recipe from the 160+ year old cook book, Mrs Beeton’s Cookery and Household Management?!

Pls delete when needed but there's a part in the cc where it says "shoe paste" instead of choux (around 1:49ish)
Here's a fun idea: A challenge where the normals have to each pick one dish from that cookbook and have to make both the original version and their interpretation of a modern one.
With the added caveat that they can't just pick the simplest ones.
thanks for including a non binary option in the survey !!
You left poor ebber's with sauce all over his face at the end for shame.
@@WesDuplantier203 funny I thought that he said shoe paste and that that’s what he meant as in it wasn’t very good😅
I like how ben is more chaotic when he's with just Jamie and Jamie almost becomes the voice of reason 😅
*almost*
Lol you know things are bonkers when Jamie is the voice of reason😂
Jamie has two modes: Chaotic Good or the team's dad. 😂
Meanwhile Ebbers is just *waiting* to unleash chaos when he doesn't have to be the voice of reason 🤣
I mean, no matter what he does, jamie is going to make a worse mistake.
Love it that Ben does the chef thing of reading the recipe and then ignoring half of it. 😂
That old classic 🤣
While Jamie keeps correcting him, using said recipe! 🤣🤣
@@GIBBO4182 that is indeed the best bit! 😂
I think some degree of that is expected with recipes of this era - they were definitely written for people who largely knew what they were doing.
Whenever you cook outside of your wheelhouse, it happens!
"Fry up some veg!"
I like how Ben could have just said "mating season" for when the ducks aren't hunted but instead made it somehow 100x more awkward 😂😂
Very true. Ben has talents beyond “Chef.” Add, “ability to making things very awkward”
He can't help himself, he is just full of ben-uenndos
Jamie didn't get the ducks and the bees talk. Lol
Repro-duck-tion? Eh?
Absolute quakers.
I honestly like this style of format. There is a challenge, but doesn't feel like a timed challenge. During the mean time, it also feels like more of an educational video. I'd be happy to see more like this here and there
Agreed, the format is great and it can move to other types of food that they are not too familiar with.
Next up, Swedish Kroppkakor (literally means body cakes, but I have no idea why) :).
I love when the team get involved in the running jokes. The "Quack Quack" in the background was very funny.
...and after the 101 things to do to a duck!
I thought they were going to go with "duck around"
There's something pleasing about the vibe Jamie and Ben has when cooking together. Good stuff
Jamie is following instructions, helping Ben read the recipe, and being generally a pretty competent cook. In all, a perfect sous-chef!
I do like this combination a lot
Definetly would like to see more of it
was botu to say this, two of them are a joy to watch when they are alone
It really is a great combo, it will would be interesting to see the other lads work along side Ben like this and then compare
This is one of the most enjoyable episodes you have done in a while. No panic, no rush, no gimmicks. Just two friends working together to try something absurd.
Actually quite lovely to just have a "regular" cooking vid for once. Just nice to see ebbers and spaff chatting casually and teaching the audience gently.
The subtle panic in their faces as they laugh through recipe at the beginning is golden 😂
🤣 awkward laughing.
Izzy's comedic timing is on point in this one.
I'm really sad that there isn't more "quack quack" comments tbh xd
@@Karlyr_ quack quack
Please don't be racist
Ben's role is usually as voice of reason, since he's the chef and has the most knowledge to share, but whenever he's on the hot seat and isn't obligated to host his chaotic "for content" side really shines
one of things i love about videos like these, when each of the normals gets paired up with ben, is that u can really see how each dynamic is different 😂 when paired up with jamie, ben becomes a little bit more chaotic😭
Izzy’s “quack quack” is killing me 😂
Hey guys, can you do a video on the book "the forme of cury"? It is the first ever recorded english cooking book from 1390, would be hilarious to let the boys try to decypher the old english recepies in a video
Excellent idea - WITH NO TRANSLATION
@@fingersfinesilver exactly! 😂
This please
It was published at the request of Richard II, who ironically died of dehydration and starvation in an oubliette after Henry IV seized the throne from him.
Good shout!
Now, I have an idea. Take these recipes and "modernize" them. Make changes to make them more up to date but still stay with the idea and flavours of the dish. Would be interesting to see what you guys can come up with!
Love the videos. Love you all!
But after they have done them the original way first!
The thing about the modern way of doing this, is that you would not do anything of the sort.
The sauce would fly, but it's very complicated and maybe more steps than you really need.
Duck basically already clashes with the concept of being light, as it's fat and dense.
Thus this song and dance to try and un-duck the duck.
To make it light, use some of these ingredients, but treat them way differently.
Essentially assemble them into something like Peking Duck with pancakes.
You do the sauce, probably with a way condensed process, and reduced down.
Then you take the spinach and/or similar fresh veggies with thin slices of duck on pancakes.
Drizzle the sauce on, done.
Now it's light by virtue of being like 50% fresh veggies by volume and fluffy pancake. Very airy, fresh and full of that sauce. Also you can actually tell you are eating duck.
😂 Ben literally trying to tell Jamie and the birds and the bees during springtime.
Genuinely impressed with Jamie butchering the duck! Do you still do badges? If yes, this was worthy of one! 😂
The man has skills.
It’s Jamie and it’s meat. Of course it’s going to come out perfectly.
Jamie describes a goose: it's a big duck. Jamie describes a pheasant: big chicken. He's spot on in all four! 🌺🤙🏽💜
@@endymallorn quack quack
@@tessss7329 lol!
Mike using his daughter Lottie as an excuse to escape work 🤣🤣🤣 !!!!!!!!...... Jokes apart...... So happy for him and Kirsty on the new Baby Huttlestone ❤️❤️❤️ !!!!!!!
I really miss the little bloopers at the end but this episode had plenty of funny moments throughout and I loved the crew interactions…quack quack lol
The way Izzy stole my heart in this video ragging on Ben relentlessly
“Today in ‘EBBERS DELIGHTS’, we have…Ben doing 101 things with a duck!”
Also, Izzy is the MVP of this video going “Quack Quack”. Happy Women’s Day to SortedFood HQ!
I love that Ben could have gone with "laying eggs" but instead made a custom euphemism that will never go away.
I never thought I'd say this but Barry and Mike are obviously the "adults" of the group, now that I've seen these two cooking unsupervised. :D
🤣Are you SURE about that?
😂😂😂😂
you know things have gone wrong when barry has to be the adult of anything
@@SortedFood That´s a good question :)
The sigh out of Ben when Jamie asks if the butchering the duck is the same as dissecting a chicken 😂. Classic Ben.
I do love the duo of Ben and Jamie. I feel like it’s a controlled or organized chaos than the usual random chaos we normally get
I love how Ben’s trying to talk around the duck thing 😂 could have tried the old classic though, “When a mommy duck and a daddy duck love each other very much…”
Only with more rape and giant corkscrew shaped penises.
At Disneyland I saw two wild ducks going at it and my dad decided to say to my mom “Donald’s doing Daisy” maybe thinking I wouldn’t understand but I’ve been scarred for life ever since.
Ducks don't do love, they are likely one if not the most perverse species out there....
@@aggese Which is why June 5th is Dead Duck Day.
Between this book and Le Repertoire De La Cuisine in this day and age I'm surprised there is no French chef who hasn't started just filming making all the recipes
I love watching ‘anti chef’ but especially when he is cooking Julia Childs recipes from her books, similar idea but, obviously, the books aren’t as old as Mrs Beeton’s etc. And, of course, I love watching ‘Sorted Food’ too. ❤
Good shout!
@@janetroberts2262 came to say this
Some chef already did that and said to burn the book and go for a real cookbook ie a recent one. You can look on youtube
I loved Jamie asking all the smart questions and double-checking the recipes.
@12:10 Ben: "Let me scrape your bottom and see how close we're getting" I say pretty darn close if you're scaping his bottom (grin) 😁 "quack quack"
Jamie’s expression of disappointment after all that work is priceless.
I really enjoy seeing all the other people behind the scenes
Love to hear it :)
I’m really enjoying the move back to tasting the food at the table. I get that Covid guidelines made the change necessary originally. But I didn’t realize how much I missed you all sitting around the table until it started to happen again. There is a different energy and it is easier to see everyone’s reactions at the table
I love seeing Ben cooking /with/ the guys, not just watching, judging, or cooking against.
Kush being adorable as usual. I hope we see him in the next Pass It On!!
I love how the book gives you no indication of what you're actually making, so after an afternoon of cooking you end up with little turd fondants
I love the guys working from the old recipe books! It is hugely entertaining watching them interpret the instructions through a modern lens, but also great to see foods and styles of presentation that have fallen by way...
Many thanks! :)
Watching your videos always puts me in a good mood, but Izzy's background quacks at the Benuenndos honestly made my whole day
Benuendos 😂
Loved the camera spin to show the team behind the camera. Also, unexpected Kush cameo.
Jamie has grown so much over the years.
We need more Izzy haha 😂 her “quack quacks” after some of bens comments were brilliant 😂
Out of all the historical dishes you’ve made in this series this one is the MOST 19th century yet.
The texture of the duck makes sense given zephyr means ‘gentle wind’ and is associated with clouds/cotton/spring. As soon as you said the name of the dish I immediately guessed it would be a mousse!
Soooo…101 things you’d rather do to a duck, you say Ben. As a matter of fact, I seriously love making duck, so I’d much appreciate the Video “The 101 things Ben would rather do with a duck!” Go!
The old school recipes are good to see the ingredients, and foods that have stayed in fashion.
You guys should definitely try and have Dylan Hollis on for one of these episodes some day. He's the undisputed master of old cookbooks, and I'd love to see both you and him in a video together
I’m a culinary student at le cordon Bleu Paris and am graduating September of this year. I have been watching for a couple of years and thought it would be a cool video to do 2-3 recipes from the 3 different level( basic , intermediate, superior) but they have a similar set up as culinary school practicals and see how the basics do as the recipes get harder.
Oh, how the turns have tabled! Some of us wanted Ben to be inspired by this book and now’s his chance!
Ben doesn’t know what WAP means and Jamie doesn’t know what a ‘Breeding Season’ means. Lots to teach, too little time 😂
This is one of my favorites, the absolute confusion, Jamie trying to keep things on track, just a sweet quiet cook, I just love it ❤
I love everyone on the Sorted team but I feel like Jamie and Ben are just such a great combo, I love seeing them work together
"just a velope" - I giggled so hard.
Need more izzy she's hilarious
Um ... can we have a just Ben and Jamie segment more often... I like the odd couple dynamic sooo good .. the heavy breaths of frustration from both at each other lol just so 👍 good
These videos are so much more enjoyable to watch when there is no timer, no competitiveness, just cooking with friends from an old book. This is fun. I've come to realise I really no longer like timed videos, especially as it's mostly artificial timers. Only the pass it on series is fun really because it's timed but co-op.
When Ebbers said "Yes..." on the question as to whether ducks and chickens are the same, he looked at the camera like he knew that the next statement that most of the bones are the same just slightly different would upset *someone* in the comments.
We all know that there's some expert in avian skeletal structure watching and s/he is *seething*.
I love it when Ben speaks “chef”.
I realize why Julia Child was so beloved and still is, is because she took entire books like this and made it pretty simple to understand. She would have loved you guys ❤
My mom apprenticed as a cook under a classically trained Chef and the FAFFING in these classic recipes is unending. No wonder she became a languages teacher after all was said and done.
It was really great watching you cook this. It reminded me of the way my father used to cook. He was a highly skilled chef in the early 1930's onwards.
Thank you
Hoo-boy! Bet you guys had a laugh with this one! Love your reactions!
Love how Ben is usually the one spouting off innuendos but gets shy about the mating season for ducks.
Love all of Sorted's videos. But I would love to see more of this kind of format of just cooking and bantering with one another. It reminds me of how my family just gathering in the kitchen spending time together
Shut your eyes and thats a perfectly good duck pate. Maybe. I'm also enjoying Ben progressively popping more buttons since the nuddy christmas card 😂
Congratulations Mike!! Also I LOVE when you cook from this book. It's always so fun watching you guys!
Good on Jamie for perfectly taking apart that duck! It's times like this that you see how far he and the others have come in a year in terms of skills.
love these old recipe book episodes, really cool hearing Ben talk about the outdated culinary ideas and why the thinking we have today is better. great and fun video!
Thanks for the laugh in the taste-testing stage, Izzy! Quack quack.
5 mins in expecting duck eclairs, not what I was expecting. Can't wait for the next recipe😂
I love that Jamie lowkey roasts ebbers a couple times throughout the vid and threw in his face that he's beaten chefs recently ( ben). and ebbers face reacting to it. Priceless
This is one of those "I'm so glad someone else made this." And, if I hadn't known EXACTLY what it took to make it, what went into it, I could not have been convinced to eat it. Thanks, guys! Brilliant work, as always.
I like this kind of episodes a lot! There is no time pressure, but there is some pressure connected with the unknown. Recipes are a bit mysterious, vague, and I feel we can really learn something about culinary history and how the tastes change through centuries. Also, it seems to me that many recipes relied not on flavour combinations and good quality ingredients, but on technique, processing and very sophisticated ways of presenting the final dish. I think it's a great lesson for homecooks who try to have some variety in their dishes - not only good examples, but also what's not really worth the time and effort.
Jamie and Ben made a great duo, with Jamie being the voice of reason here - and I like that Jamie insisted on sticking to the recipe even when Ben knew a better way of preparing something.
I wonder what would be the result of a comparison of dishes, if you had 2 chefs cooking the same old recipe, with one sticking very strictly to the text (maybe with Jamie on the shoulder) and the second one doing roughly the recipe, changing whatever he or she thinks would work better (Barry would be an inspiration here :D)
Okay guys, I'm going to ask again - really would love to see you guys' ideas and/or takes on kroketten/bitterballen. I think the Dutch audience would definitely be excited, I know I would be!
Cheers!
We will pass your idea onto the team - thank you!
as a Brit living in nederland, I absolutely adore bitterballen and kroketten (I even made kroketten for christmas back in the UK and my family loved them). Big +1 from me!
we need this! if only the hear them try to pronounce it...
@@SortedFood Absolutely Marvelous lads! 😁
Are bitterballen breaded meatballs bound with a thick roux and flavoured with nutmeg? If so that's a good shout, easy to make and so moreish!
That last "Quack, Quack" got me good, lmao 😂
I love seeing a normal cook along side a chef, it's very funny but we are still learning new things. Professor Ben is awesome x
Love finally seeing a chef on for this book! Is Ben ever going to get revenge on Kush for that solo Le Répertoire De La Cuisine video?
Oooo. I had forgotten about that video!
This is without a doubt one of the best episodes in a while. A slightly sassy Jamie keeping Ben down to earth is a fantastic combination!
"While im off having a baby" is just the most sophisticated way of saying "No bitches?"😂
It would be fun to see how Ben would have cooked a contemporary version of the dish. Or make it a challenge, first you cook it together following the recipe and later against each other in their own version.
Love Ben ducking the subject of the birds and the bees.
I wonder if Mrs Beaton is looking on laughing at the struggle 😂
I have been loving the Sorted content recently. It feels like there has been so much variety within the videos and I'm all here for it.
I was literally trying to look for a picture of the dish when y’all said there weren’t any 😂 Love it !
I love how Ben gets more out of pocket the longer he spends with Jamie. Poor Jamie is borderline in Dad-Mode keeping Ben on track. Quack Quack.
Have you guys ever considered creating a book that follows along as one of the "Normals", so we can level up and get a similar experience to them. Or even for cooking episodes, leave some kind of how to in the notes so the "audience" can cook along if they want
Seeing some vintage recipes be brought into reality in the image of a modern chef using modern techniques and interpretations makes me appreciate the change food has made over time because I don’t think there’s yet been a dish out of this book that I’ve liked the look of
Watching Ben and Jamie work together here, it's very interesting to see how they measure things differently. Whereas Jamie is typically checking everything via scales and pitchers, Ben appears to simply read the recipe for a general idea and then eyeball it, stopping when he's there or to suit his taste. It could just be me, as someone who has no culinary expertise beyond following instructions on packaging. I might also miss some moments when he does weigh out ingredients. But I still find it impressive.
Also, you guys were supposed to use a "Fancy" mold for this dish. I usually plate it slightly differently. But it is our Thanksgiving traditional that we have every year!
Congratulations Mike!!
lmao, this recipe is wild and i’m so happy we got to go on this journey with ben and jamie 😂😂😂
Love the normal and chef working together instead of the usual putting them at odds vibe. Wholesome and very fun to watch!
ben and jamie have such a wholesome dynamic when it’s just the two of them i think the other two may be a bit of a bad influence xD
Hey Sorted Team, the "normals" (for me they are mor like "assistant cooks")have so many badges for cooking/creating everything, wich is totally ok for me. BUT sometimes i have the feeling their use of knifes (especially wich knife for what occasion) could be a little bit better after that amount of time. So i think an episode of something like that would be very nice. Thanks for your attention
I also think knowing how to sharpen knives is a very necessary skill
@@melcky4750 oh yes forgot about that. Thanks
I think we should whip them too 🤔
Y'all should do a series where u cook the old recipes, and then modernize them!
Congrats to Mike and fam! I hope everyone is healthy and happy
Hello Sorted!!! Thank you for all of the great videos (congrats to Mike too).
Thank you Jake.
That was great! We learned something, Ben swore and innuendo's were plenty and there was a tender moment at the end!
When Izzy quacked after Ben said there were several other things he'd do to a duck 😅
So funny. How hard is it to say mate and have duckies to a dad. Maybe Jamie needed a drawing? 😅
Jamie: How much does half a pint of water weigh?
Ben: 280ml.
Good weight that.
These old recipe book challenges are my favorite videos. Please make more of Ben cooking the Signature Dishes book!
I like Smug Jamie telling Ben the correct way to do things. 😂
