Lily biting the raw onion made me realize that she isn't getting weirder the more she works there, she's always been weird, she just wasn't sure how weird she should be in the new work environment.
>bumps into someone walking down the street
*>quickly pulls Onion away from mouth*
*EY, Im Chewin' 'ere!*
I love her 🤣 I need Emily to do a vid with her and they should either be cooking against each other or teaming up against Josh to make something
Lily getting a stick of butter smushed to her face, and says "great tyre pressure", killed me 🤣🤣
she's so funny!
Same 🤣 she cracks me up
I saw Josh get butter smushed on his face and then Lily said that. Idk what video you watched.
@@bcayeuh... 7:12
Adderall abuse will do that. This channel is pilled up 24/7. It's not healthy.
1:33 WAIT. THATS ME?!!!
My sister just called me 3 times back to back while I was on a run. She never does this and I thought there was an emergency. So when she asked if I had seen today’s ep yet, I was so confused and just, OMG
Thank you so much! I’m honored.
Have a great day! Here's a friendly wave from one of your Instagram followers. Your comics remain amazing. Thank you for continuing to create and share them with us. :)
@@TheSarge23 my day was totally made by this and thank you!! I’m so glad you guys like them. You have a great day too!
Of all the things he could've said, that he mentioned you I would think means he's a fan. That's awesome.
I read your comics on Reddit all the time! I would have never expected you to show up here! Life is getting more meta...
yas qween! love your comics! saw your post about this on IG and had to come watch it. SO COOL!!!
Lily is getting crazier since she first started showing up in videos 😂
It is Josh's impact. Everyone in the Mythical Kitchen slowly becomes crazier the longer they are around Josh.
@@darththeo josh is one of the few whose ADHD is contagious
I watched her intro on the theme song like 5 times. She is so funny,she is becoming more and more unhinged progressively. Amazing cook,and she could be a comedian.
I'm pretty sure she took Joshs ADHD as a challenge and said game on MFer lol!
when she ate the onion i died
21:54 "sharp knife, wet towel, refrigerate... these are all wrong; these are onions." great delivery, Josh
I love that Lily has gone from the most reserved, shy member of mythical kitchen to possibly even more unhinged than Josh.
Lily with the aggressive onion snacking is amazing.
Especially with that wicked grin ^^
Debunking your own Tik toks is a new meta.
Contacts are 100% defense against Onions. Spent years cutting onions with contacts. Laughed at workers crying being around the board.
Then I got glasses.
Agreed, with contacts, no cry, with glasses, streaming tears.
Same here! I always thought people were overreacting, nope!
When I was in the gas chamber in basic training me and another guy had our contacts in. We were the only ones that weren’t crying, 😂
Yup! Came here to say the same thing!!
Josh calling people too stupid to properly use a microwave then hitting us with the seamless merch plug was smooth af
Someday y'all will test the ACTUAL best (and single step) method for reheating pizza- in a pan, COVERED, with a splash of water like you're cooking gyoza. Melts the cheese, softens the stale crust, warms it through, AND crisps the bottom- all in no more time than just heating it in a pan.
Yes! There are DOZENS OF US!!
That's a lot of words to say, "toaster oven"
@@jodosh nope. Not the same. And not everyone has a toaster oven.
Too much work. Paper plate in the microwave = no clean up. If you want some moisture, just wet a paper towel and throw it over the top.
Air fryer is the best method hands down
Lily’s face staring over the onions, just tempting them to make her cry… chefs kiss
Personally I use a stick of butter to grease my cake pan then add flour and make sure it's thoroughly coated and every time my cakes come out flawlessly.
I second this. If you're generous with the flour layer then you'll get a good release most if not all the time.
Exactly you need to thoroughly coat it not sprinkle some in like they did
Every time. And if you are making a chocolate cake, add a touch of cocoa powder to your flour before adding to your pan.
Yes! and if I ever bake with boxed cake mix, use some of the cake mix to coat in place of flour
i love that everyone uses the term sous chef mike for the microwave at work i like to call it the tumble dryer to confuse the other chefs
I worked for this restaurant manager who was from Dublin. We live in Virginia. Whenever a customer would send an order back because the cheese wasn't melted, or the soup wasn't nuclear hot enough, he'd tell the customer "ah no worries. I'll just take it back and give it a go in me ol Polish Broiler." And these rednecks would just smile along and be like "oooh SO fancy! A Polish Broiler? Wow! So interesting the things you learn about other cultures."
Meanwhile it's just a microwave.
i call it the chef purely so i can revel in the moment of confusion after hearing me say "throw it in the chef"
"Just pop that in the Printer real quick- nobody'll be the wiser"
>Irrefutable and insurmountable Confusion
I’ve been at home sick for the past week, so I re-binged all of Myth Munchers and made a spreadsheet🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
I just finished it last night, so perfect timing! 🤣
Nicole has the best record of accuracy (she’s at 61.11% with 66 correct out of 108)
then Trevor (59.48%; 69 out of 116)
Lily is third (51.67%; 31 out of 60)
Vee (exactly 50%; 56 out of 112)
And Josh is last (42.42% accuracy; 56 out of 132)
There were 3 myths across the videos where the answer didn’t matter; I counted them all correct on those 🤷🏻♀️ Trevor called it a freebie in the Thanksgiving Sides video; who am I to argue?
Great job!
Our butter goes from the freezer, to fridge, to butter dish on the table. We buy butter in bulk and kept in freezer. One stick is left in the fridge until the stick in the butter dish is almost gone. Then all is transitioned as needed. Room temp butter from the butter dish is always spreadable.
Same
Josh: "You don''t need to refrigerate butter"
The whole-ass continent of Australia: lol
Thank god Australia isnt real.
Indonesia climate: 33 degree celcius (87 degree fahrenheit)
Am I a joke to you?
Southern California as well, where the show is filmed. I lol the concept. Keeping butter out only works in cool northern climates.
I'm Australian, and a Chef, I don't refrigerate my butter at work.
@@Spav at work it probably gets used up much quicker
If you're not a heathen like Josh and don't want to griddle both sides of pizza (though ngl that looked really good), pan-fry with a LID is the best way to reheat pizza. Crisp bottom, steamy-melty top.
I feel like Josh should try some Toast with his Butter
Lily embracing her internet persona is awesome
I want a Hot Dog Is A Sandwich episode that's just a Josh rant about people who don't know about the power level on a microwave. Sous Chef Mike is a valuable part of any team if you know how to manage him.
Lily physically cringing at Josh's facts lmaoo! I really did want to hear the Caesar fact though!
supposedly there was a rift between Caesar's side of the family and his brother's side cuz supposedly Caesar stole credit for the salad; however there's a big difference between Caesar's version of the dressing, which does not have anchovies, and his brother's version, which does
not Julius Caesar btw, an Italian chef living in Tijuana, Mexico named Caesar Cardini
Dude Lily could have her own show, she is so freaking funny lol
Microwaves have exactly 2 settings: off and 100% power.
That explains why Hot Pockets end up the way they do.
Inverter microwaves are starting to be commonplace now and they let you vary the power delivery to the magnetron, so they can in fact lower the power during cooking instead of having On/Off states for X%
@@vaelophisnyx9873 Magnetrons *only* work at 100% power. The inverter only takes out the inefficiency of the switching the transformer on and off frequently. Magnetrons still take several seconds to resonate.
Technically true. But then electric ovens are the same. It just turns off when it gets to temperature.
@@ZipplyZane Turning an oven off (electric and gas both work the same) doesn't immediately stop the radiation and conduction of energy to your food. Turning a microwave off does. Why would you make this comparison?
1:22 JULIE “THE CAT” GAFFNEY! I LOVE A MIGHTY DUCKS REFERENCE!! 🖤🖤🖤
That intro kills me ..I love when Josh is on the banana and u can clearly tell what he says towards the end I love it..😂
Lily I got you, the conditions of the fridge simulate Autumn for onions and garlic which is typically their growth phase where you'll find they send up shoots and in garlic particularly they produce garlic scapes which are probably due for harvest in the US around now. Look for the scapes when they're curled and they can be used for a pesto if you have a lot
8:08 "men weren't socialized to be communal..." Wow deep bro. 😆
You can skip the trying to cut out the beret circle by running your parchment paper order water. The water will hydrate the paper and make it easier to shape!
Another thing I like to do is to take another pan the same shape and use it to press the hydrated parchment to mold it to the pan
I am making a sceptical face but will try it!
I need pan fried versus air fryer for the ultimate pizza reheat showdown 😂
Air Fryer 100%
Pizzazz is my favorite.
This!! I'm all about the air fryer 🍕
Cold pizza with congealed cheese is indeed better.
I'm in Ireland and no, I do not put butter in the fridge but in winter your butter is still gonna be rock hard in the morning because we don't put the heat on right through the night. We have it come on an hour before we get up but it's gonna take longer than that to soften that butter that's been in a cold kitchen overnight. I watched a TH-cam video about how a microwave works. You can't actually lower the strength of a microwave. When you put it on a lower setting the microwave oven just uses shorter blasts of microwaves in a stop start method. Sounds boring but it was actually quite useful to know how to use your microwave properly.
unless you have an inverter microwave that does lower the strength.
@@Zach476 yeah modern microwaves are pretty cool. Less deadly too, if you somehow touch the internals while its charged; and lighter as well
Defrost settings do a similar thing but with larger periods of both power and rest.
My personal favorite way to reheat pizza is to take two slices (bc who can eat just one) and put them face to face in my panini press. The crust gets crispy, the cheese and toppings get gooey, and I get a pizza sandwich. My panini press is by far my favorite Christmas present I've ever gotten.
Lily just monching on onion is a mood.
I always use the bowl of water trick to reheat my leftover Pizza. Keeps it crispy 100% of the time.
I use a frying pan. I put some olive oil in a frying pan and super super low heat. Put the lid on and just let that puppy heat up for a while and then at the end turn the fire up. Take the lid off put the lid back on put the lid off.
Then done and cheese is melted. The bottom is soft but crispy at the same time it’s warm. It feels just like when you ordered it.
That’s when I feel like it but most of the time I’ll just eat it cold and not even bother
The boil method is good
If you drip a bit of water in the pan and recover, the steam will melt the cheese faster. 2 cents.
@@micahjones2090 I also boil my leftover pizza. Take a whole pizza and throw it in some water. Perfect every time.
@@tigernotwoods914 " Take the lid off put the lid back on put the lid off. " Did you have a stroke?
Cutting onions ----> use a fan, blowing the air away carries the onion vapor away so it never reaches your eyes. Works every time.
We use our toaster oven to reheat pizza (using the REHEAT mode). Makes it PERFECT.
For a minute there I thought I was going to have to write a strongly-worded email to Mythical about how they left out Josh's poster. I'm unreasonably invested in the posters 😂
I'm with Lily on cold pizza. I love cold pizza.
I tried reheating leftover pizza in a pan (bottom and top) for the first time today. Simply mind blowing good, probably better than when it was delivered fresh! Thanks mythical kitchen! Would never of thought to try that.
lol, the eye contact lily made with the camera during the onions segment has sent me.
Shout out Julie "The Cat" Gaffney! Doesn't let anything by her!
First thing I thought of when he said Bangor, Maine 😂
they should do a food myths video where they'll try kitchen "gadgets" that are supposed to help and make things easy in the kitchen
Most microwaves DON'T actually reduce their power output on "lower" power settings, like defrost. They just turn the magnetron on and off at intervals.
I love microwaving Pizza. Having a nice crust is good but theres something about the softness of microwave reheated pizza that I love. Prob more than fresh
5:19 exact same thing happened to my great grandmother. Everything just fell apart after she fell 97 years old.
It's so common, a hip break is so often the beginning of the end 😞
My mother, as well.
Air fryer on reheat for left over pizza 🤌🏽😚
Watching Lily becoming more and more unhinged is my favorite.
The editing team sure had a lot of fun with this one! It also doesn't help that everyone was in a _mood_ today.
I'm only 8 minutes in and they already have me practically in tears!😂
22:15 I think the more you cut onions you build up an immunity to the onions and the eye watering. I cook everyday and cut onions nearly everyday and don’t “cry” anymore.
I worked at subway for 3 years, and cut pounds of onions everyday and that's just not true.
I used a chipped meat slicer to cut onions and it would literally fling onion juice as it cut. I basically speed ran onion tolerance. My coworkers would have to walk out of the room sometimes when I was doing onions or occasionally complain about it from a different room
@@davidoriggan”thats just not true” thats just not true, all these replies were anecdotal, its probably different from person to person.
"great tire pressure" sent me😂
Side note, Nicole…the contacts make all the difference lmao. I forever thought I was immune to onions because I constantly wear contacts…and then I cooked wearing my glasses one time and was DYING lmao
as someone who struggles with acne, watching Josh put that greasy pizza on his face made my blood pressure go through the roof oh my god
he likes to do things to provoke :P
In Europe, we DO put butter in the fridge. But we also now that you can cut off the portion you need and leave that on the counter over night or 1-2 hours before you need it. Planning is key.
Air fryer is the best way to reheat pizza IMO
Don't have one, but I use my IR toaster oven and it works great.
My method for not crying when cutting onions is to spend a few minutes keeping my eyes open, drying them out. The theory is that the sulphur compounds have less water to mix with in your eyes so cause less irritation.
It works extremely well for me, I can cut up 20-30 large onions in one session without issue.
For baking I just put the cold butter by the oven vents while I wait for the oven to preheat because I have never remembered to take butter out of the fridge (where you store the extra butter from the box) and if I don't then I also forget to preheat the oven
I watch this episode with a proudly reheated slice in my hand.
Same. Don’t have time to dirty a pan for a piece of pizza 😅
Cold Pizza the next day slaps
love the mighty ducks reference @ 1:20
I love that one of the variables is always "the weird way josh does it"
Oh god I just rewatched all the myth munchers today and was hoping more this is freakky
with the cakes, they didnt consider the time to clean the pans after either. the cake goop is more mess meaning more time to clean up afterwards
Exactly! Not just the pan but the immersion blender, too
when i used to be a stoner i cut up cold leftover pizza and put in in scrambled eggs. pizza eggs? also, cooking and baking as a career for the last five years i have used the microwave a LOT. i don't have one at home, but its pretty cool. i love you mythical kitchen! you make me happy :D
My go-to ways to reheat pizza: 1) air fryer at 300 degrees for 3-4 minutes 2) panini press
My worst case scenario for baking is throw it in a little cold and let the stand mixer tough it out because it's early enough in the recipe to do a little over mixing
That doesn't work for a lot of recipes where you mixed it in later
❤️.
Depending on the toppings of the pizza, I may just eat leftover pizza cold. For example, pepperoni pizza. If you reheat pepperoni it gets even more greasy, so I'd rather eat it cold.
Pause @ 6:10, the bowl is cooling faster because it's thinner and bigger with more surface mass for the heat to escape.
5:22 I don’t put butter in the fridge. I store it in a butter bell on the counter with some clean filtered water. Change the water out every two days and you’re good
Butter bell is an extra step. Just get a sealed butter container and put butter in there ❤
Butter bells are great when you don't live in a place that gets to 45°C.
@@NateyCat I prefer the way my bell works. It’s a preference of mine. I have used air tight containers and they just don’t do it for me.
@@kredonystus7768 so it’s 113 degrees in your house…. No air conditioning? Do you have a fridge? You can store bells in the fridge.
@@NateyCat also an air tight container only has butter safely edible for up to 14 days. In a water sealed butter bell it’s good for 30 days.
Yeeeessss
the best way to reheat pizza is to not reheat pizza, because cold pizza is amazing
I always have a stick of butter on a butter tray on the counter. I will replace it when it is gone, but the spare butter is in the fridge.
Also, butter is great for you. Your body can digest the good fats in butter where as with margarine your body can not process out the processed oils it.
❤️
*The **_perfect_** way to reheat leftover pizza is...*
*Step 1:* Remove from fridge.
*Step 2:* Consume delicious cold pizza.
*Step 3:* Let your body reheat the pizza.
Just leave it on the counter. I haven't died in 40 years.
@@bgriffiths1840haha That works, too 😁
Although, I'm like Lily and like it fridge-cold. 😊
I know temperature impacts flavors, but I've found that with pizza, different flavors are allowed to come through while cold
I will say that if you're going to leave it out, I say at least put it on a plate and under cling wrap, so that it retains its moisture. I recently was too tired to do that, having just stuffed the entire box in the fridge, and I was shocked at how dry it was! _(I didn't think the cardboard would wick away as much as it did)_
[/ramble]
@@DUKE_of_RAMBLE Fridges dry out bread because of the temperature range. Which is why I don't refrigerate pizza. There's no recovering fridge bread haha.
@@bgriffiths1840 That's what having it on a plate and under cling wrap prevents. 😀
Thank you for these kids of episodes! Keep up the good and fun work MK!
My dad always reheated pizza in a skillet with a good amount of butter and would flip and butter each side- he called it fried pizza and it’s my favorite way to have leftover pizza for sure!
Why would you reheat pizza?!?!? half the joy of leftover pizza is getting to eat it cold... I AM NORMAL!
Three girls one onion 🤣🤣🤣
Lily getting increasingly unhinged as the episode went on had me cracking up!
love this new editing layout!!
Awesome job Josh drop a like see you on Thursday.
The produced intro joke is tired.
I know an air fryer is a mini convection oven, but it does make a difference vs a full size one. Air fryer is absolutely one of the best ways to reheat a slice of pizza
I’ve found that the only way I can keep onions from making me cry is to wear my contacts. If I’m in my glasses the waterworks are on full blast. My contacts are like an onion shield
I was taught to coat the pan with shortening, then dust with flour for a good pan release. It's always worked for me.😊
Sharp knife is definitely safer as a wood worker I can 100% confirm as if you get a ragged cut from a dull knife it heals slower less clean and gets infected more easily plus it’s harder to glue or stitch
We love a random D2: Mighty Ducks reference casually thrown in lol And I'm with Lily, cold pizza all the way!
Josh, there are 2 reasons why a sharp knife is safer than a dull one; first, it won't slide off of the food you are cutting so you have more control over it and second, if you do cut yourself, the cut is more even and will heal faster with less scarring. This is why they use extremely sharp scalpels in surgery.
Best way to reheat a pizza is treating it like a pot sticker....oil in pan to crisp up the bottom. After the bottom starts to crisp again, put some water in the pan, cover with the lid. Steam it. After the cheese melts, remove the lid and let the water evaporate.
I'm with Lily, cold pizza for the win. I buy pizza and wait for it to get cold before I eat it
I always reheat pizza in the microwave for 30 seconds, into a medium pan with a touch of oil base down, once crispy a quick 30 second flip on the cheese side to create crispy layer of cheese and serve. Best thing ever
I love Josh,Vi and Nicole ❤️ They are crazy in a tame way❤️ Not over bearing! Feel Lily is going towards Trevor’s young minded way 😮
I'm with Lily - Cold pizza is underrated. A pan is too much hassle, a microwave makes it rubbery, and an oven is just slow. An air fryer probably works if you have one?
Lily with the onion killed me 🤣
Lily is sooo fun to watch! I love the GM Kitchen crew too!
Lily has been holding out on us shes absolute GOOF I love it
best way to warm up pizza is to toss the cold pizza in a ziplock, put it in the microwave long enough to get the bag steamy, let it just sit in the steamy bag for a moment. then air fry it for whatever.
i reheat pizza a 275 in the oven until the surface starts to sizzle and it always comes out crispy on the bottom and nice and hot, very satisfying
Pizza reheated in a pan with the flip makes any "cheap" pizza absolutely amazing. IDK how it is with a New York pizza but your Dominos, Pizza Hut, Little Caesear etc. sooooooo goood. For thicker doughier pizzas when I flip it on the cheese side I also put like a tablespoon of water in the pan and cover to steam it up a bit.
Best way to reheat Pizza is actually using a Panini press/George Foreman grill or something similar, specifically one that you can lock the top so it doesn't actually touch the pizza, but just hovers slightly over it. Perfect every time.
