Oh shit, my girlfriend's BFF has a grey cat named Atlas. You takin the piss? (favourite British saying, sorry) What are the odds. Good video though so far, going to go watch the rest. First time I saw your cat.
Try working 90-100 hours a week in a restaurant, and still having to make meals for your family to warm up.... Then coming home to a dirty kitchen...after you just cleaned a giant kitchen..... Cooking fatigue is for the weak (I hated my job, so take it all as sarcasm)
@@Ellbat I used to wiggle my feet under the covers and my kittens would jump on them it was so cute. … 12 years later … I can’t have my feet stick out of the blanket with out adult cats wanting to wrestle them. I have regrets.
@@Emojibones yes, per cat behaviorist Jackson Galaxy, never use parts of your body to play with cats or kittens. Because their play is literally hunting practice. Always use toys to play with cats and kittens.
Maangchi, everyone's Korean TH-cam mom, has an "easy Kimchi" recipe and I make it all the time. Your kitchen is bigger than mine, so if I can do it, you can! I don't use rice flour but regular flour works just fine for the porridge and it is LEGIT delicious. I use old large peanut butter and pickle jars.
Maanchi is great. I showed my Korean grandma her videos and she goes" theta not a Korean accent. She's not Korean! " 😂 Lol but she did say that her kimchi recipe is pretty accurate. Of course every family has a kimchi recipe that gets passed down generation to generation, so no one recipe will ever be the same
Since this a safe place to vent, I’m so tired of school, I used to get high grades before but this year I just can’t I feel burnt out, I graduate high school in two months but there’s so much left and my parents are expecting everything and I don’t want to disappoint my family but I just want this to end, even though I know people have worse situations than me... Anyways thanks for letting me rant, your videos always cheer me up:)
just because other people have worse experiences, doesn’t mean that you’re having a bad experience. burnout can be really tough, and honestly i think you need a break
Your own life, your body, mind and emotional health is all important first and foremost. I ask that you pleas take care of you first and then give what you can to others, never give out more than you can. When you need to take time to heal yourself and take care of your needs first do so, and you will have more energy going forward to do what you want for your own life. Never let anyone tell you how to live your life you choose that for yourself, its okay to need to care for you first and its always okay to fail all the time, because failure is always a learning opportunity to fail better, because then you know what you don't want in life and learn from passed decisions to get where you want to go in the long run always stand up for yourself with your needs. I wish you luck in your life journey and please remember your needs and want come first for yourself , just keep trying your best to being your best self one day at a time, stay safe and take care and remember people that love you would only want you to find your own happiness in life and share that happiness with everyone you love, but always put your needs first for self care and get some rest hydration and good food.
You're probably almost done with school by now and I hope you're feeling better since you posted. As a parent I understand. Sometimes you need to take a break. But you're almost done so don't give up. Look deep inside and find that extra energy to push through and give it your best. That's all anyone should ask of you. No one's perfect and sometimes we falter here and there but just don't give up. ❤️
Yea actually my husband grew up on chicken nuggets and fish sticks and I’m a chef, so we have done A LOT of trial and error because he had this super processed mentality. All this to say Indian food opened his eyes and helped him be more open. He loves rice so I ran with that until we found something that worked. Curry opened the door lol
In college, I worked in the dining hall and was friends with one of the cooks who was from Korea. He'd make bibimbap occasionally and I had a massive craving to have it again. I had forgotten how absolutely mind blowingly delicious it is and I started trying out other recipes. I eat really clean by American standards, but I really love how balanced Korean dishes are and how easy it is to incorporate a wide variety of vegetables into each meal.
@@Ellbat yeah mine was just a random vent 😂I’m still watching right now btw, you really know how to keep people hooked to your content 💜 in my home country (Uzbekistan) we have a huge Korean community and lots of these dishes are so familiar to me! 😋
So happy to see my culture represented! I'm half Korean, and have a lot of food intolerances and always find Korean cooking sits with me the easiest. Love this content
Also making kimchi doesn't have to be super difficult! I feel like a lot of videos make it out to be a very arduous process, but it doesn't have to be. Try 'mak' kimchi, where you cut up the napa cabbage leaves beforehand. For the paste, the main things you need are just the chilli pepper flakes and rice flour - all the other ingredients you can p much freestyle :)
No vent here everything is going suspiciously well, but I want to say to everyone else: stay safe! You can do everything you're planning, don't be hard on yourself, respect your mental and physical health :)
this video has served as a great reminder for me to eat! i often get absorbed in whatever task i'm doing that i forget to eat during the day. this is a reminder for everyone to eat enough and drink plenty of water!!
Hi I like your video. I'm second gen Korean and everytime I go to my grandma's house she's always making something. Korean cooking is all about the sides and most times they're already made ahead of time. One because doing them on the spot is very time consuming especially when your hungry but also we love our fermented foods. Then all you have to do is heat up some rice or your protein and you have food in no time. Idk how my grandma does it. But literally ill sit down for lunch or dinner and 5 mins later I have like 10 dishes in front of me. Like bam! It's insane. But yeah I'm also studying to be a nutritionist. And I can tell you that one of the main reasons why Korean food is so healthy is because of the fermented foods and the amount of veg we eat compared to American or European cuisine. Koreans were typically farmers and did not have money for meat. the fermentation is a way to keep food fresh all winter long and is very good for mitochondria and the microbiome.
Okay, but can we talk about how gorgeous Ellbat has been looking lately? I mean, she was always attractive but the hair especially has been on point lately.
I honestly don't get why Ellbat has more subs. She makes such funny and wonderful content that is most of the very informative! I am going to tell other people about the channel
vent incoming: my group uni project was due today, and I wanted to submit that yesterday so we could be finished with it, but one girl hadn't done the one thing that we asked her to do, so we were immensely behind. we met up today before i had a mandatory lecture so we could submit it, and the girl responsible for submitting it. SUBMITTED AN OLD VERSION. and blamed ME FOR IT. it was horribly stressful, and though we managed to fix it, i was late for my next lecture. When i finally got to eat lunch at 3pm, i found the kitchen in a STATE! i have two housemates and we alternate cooking, so it was my turn tonight, but they had both left their washing to pile up on the side for TWO DAYS! I told them i wasn't going to cook until it was all cleaned up, and thankfully they got it done. My boyfriend who i haven't seen in months texted me to say he can't visit me Friday like we planned because of unexpeced work deadlines (the struggles of being students :( ) which sucked. And then, a nail in the coffin, i burnt myself pretty badly on my tray of enchiladas, so I couldn't even eat it properly! today has genueinly been out to kill me, and i still have 5 uni exams left to go! hoo. that was quite the vent. apologies, ellbat! i love your videos and i recommended you to my friend recently. i love when you partner with skillshare too, I get to put on my 'totally not the same person with a moustache' moustache ;). thanks for keeping us entertained!
When it rains it pours. Honestly, you go girl for making your roommates clean the dishes up by blackmailing them with food. I wouldn't have thought of that. 👍
Hello from Macon, Georgia, USA! My husband and I love your videos!!! Thank you so much for the time, effort and hard-work you put into making them! Blessings!
you always put so much work into your videos its amazing how you can put so much time and effort into your videos and still go to university. i hope youre taking some time to do things for yourself sometimes too. im proud of you youre doin awesome!! ❤️
I watch your channel because...you are so you. It is really quite a treat to see you take on the world in your inimitable style. I have not tried Korean food, but you have made me want to. About the amount of food you and that cutie face Jean consumed in a day...I don't think I could do the same, it just seems a lot to me. However, I am in my 70's and just don't need that much food. I'm happy for you though. Everything looked scrumptious. Keep doing you, I look forward to it.
If you're interested in Korean recipes that are easy to prepare Aaron and Claire is a great channel. They simplify recipes a lot and have a great variety. I've too have also lit my oven on fire... several times before -- but I have an easy time with these 😅
Found your channel recently, love it. The videos amuse me to no end. This one though was different. This one made me joyful. Knowing young people are trying to cook makes my day.
You can tones of cooking vids anywhere. 1 idea my grandmother gave me was choose if you are building a meal and the meat compliments it, then the meat only serves as part of the ingredients. How ever the meal you are planning is to support the meat, as in a turkey dinner. How you cook the meat is the starting point of the meal. Every other item is there to support the meal.
I absolutely love kittens, Korean food, and your content, so this was super fun to watch😂❤️ I've had bibimbap and some japchae before (along with bits of a few other Korean dishes), but not the spicy chicken yet. Korean food really is so delicious and healthy, especially when you eat kimchi regularly. I still want to try more dishes. Also, I'm not a cooking expert, but your cooking seems quite decent actually. That bibimbap looked heavenly
Exactly 19 years ago my grandfather died after 2 years struggling with stomach cancer. It has been a really rough day so I would like to thank you for bringing a bit a joy to my day with your videos. I have been a fan for about 2 years now.
well i do not have a vent, but i figured i’d talk a bit here because why not. i got the first dose of my covid vaccine today! it’s a little later than a lot of people have been getting it, but i’m really happy. aside from that, the school year’s almost over. that’s good, because i’m barely holding on, but i’ll really miss my soccer team. we also go up north in the summer, and i’m excited for the outdoors without pavement everywhere! anyways, i’ll leave you alone and watch the video now. i hope you’re doing well everyone, and i love you ellbat!
Almonds "good for the brain... good for the heart??" "Chicken feels like baby cheeks!!" "I ate it because.... science!!"😂 Also, this is literally me in the kitchen... I don't know if I'm doing this right but it'll be fine!!!
Glad to see your face today Ellbat. I needed some cheer. I’m having surgery tomorrow on my foot and the anxiety is real. I dropped a kitchen knife while chopping some lettuce and the knife hit the “perfect” spot. It severed the tendon to my big toe, the main tendon to my whole foot, and a nerve. Needless to say, I’m never eating lettuce again! Also, your kitten is adorable!! 😍
This was such an inspirational video! I enjoy cooking and want to try these recipes. Atlas is such a beautiful good boy. The kitten months are so precious 💖
Omggggg !!!! I would love to see you style YDYB 🥺🥺 it would be such an honour as I want YDYB to be for everyone, and for everyone to feel represented and comfortable in it 😭💜
I haven't watched the video yet but I know it's gonna be a good video already! I've had such a rough couple months and your content has made it so much easier to cope with. You're honestly one of the best TH-camrs out there and I feel so happy that I found you when I did. Hope you're doing well much love 💜
I’m so sorry you’ve had a rough few months, i promise there are better days coming !! Sending u all the love and light, I’m so glad I could help a small bit 💜💜
@@Ellbat you don't understand how much that has made my week. Scrap that my year!! Honestly thank you so much💜💜 p.s your study sessions are such a good idea I'm definitely gonna use that to help me study too as I start uni in September
This video has made me so hungry 🤤 If beef has turned brown it is just oxidation, that greeny marble tinge to yours is off. For anyone reading this that doesn't know... With beef that's off stroke it with your pointer finger and feel it between your finger and thumb ( like this 👌) and if it's very sticky OR very slimy it's not good... Also give it a wiff if it makes you gag it's very off. Yours truely a chef ❤️
stop Atlas is so so so precious omg and all of the food looked so yummy!!!! I had bibimbap in K-town in Japan and it was so good - I would love to try more Korean food tho!!
I have never had Korean food, but I am definitely intrigued by it now. Also, cooking/meal prep fatigue is 100% a thing. I usually only cook a few days a week and then eat left overs because I cooking 3x a day like you did here would make me miserable. Also, the way your kitten was sleeping during the ad portion of the video made my morning - he's adorable
Dude I found you on my recommend and you had me so hooked I literally just watched all your videos (the whole vid cuz you know watch time ++ little cheeky thumbs up 👍) hahah you are so freaking smart man and hilarious!! On to your 2nd channel 😁
Let me just say that I just enjoy listening to you talk. Sometimes I might not be interested in the topic, but might still play the video and just use it as background while I play a phone game or something. I'm sure the accent plays into it, but mostly your voice is just soothing.
I usually cook 2-3 meals a day. But I enjoy cooking and really appreciate a good home cooked meal. I find it easier if you can find dump style recipes for most of them to avoid the cooking fatigue. Like 1 pan roast or sautee, slow cooker dump and go etc. Cuts back on dishes and time spent prepping. Also using the dishwasher if its too much. The tough part is finding healthy ones. But you can even cut time on prep with precut produce or frozen.
The main secret of koreans health is really kimchi, it has SO MUCH good stuff, i ferment kimchi once every 2 months, the fermentation takes only 3 days and it's done at last for months. Recommending! 👌
Cute kitten! Incidentally, a trick I've found for marinating meat is to put the meat and the marinade in a freezer bag and smush it around. Then fridge it for a bit. You can then tear open and empty the freezer bag into the pan you're using, the freezer bag can then be thrown out, saving on washing up but unfortunately not being very green
for the Japche, if you want more spice - gojugaru (the chili powder that goes into the paste you have) or chili oil into the sauce. it helps with some kick
ahhh u read all ur comments? girl i just want to say how much i love u!! 🥺💕 u inspire me & i love how body & nutrition positive u are! 🤍🤍 ur vids always make me happy 💕
Love Atlas, your cooking looked fun. I have done that when cooking a lot of dishes for a party and when I premade all of my family's meals for two weeks so they could eat while I was away on business. Your presentation was of the food was lovely. I felt sorry about all of the dishes you had to wash just before an exam or just after depending on the situation. You have inspired me to make something new the day after shopping.
Rather than 'dehydrating' your cucumber - the word you're looking for is 'macerating' which is the process of drawing out the moisture in food with salt or sugar.
Omg, I watch both you and Taz and I always thought that your videos had a similar style! It's always so funny when a youtuber watches an other youtuber you like yourself😂🙌🏽
Try the asian market ova where yah at, there are pickled cucumber, pickeled daikon raddiah /qhite sometimes wit sting cut carrots in a jar, and try also blanched chpi sum-
Since you invited venting: I spent a while downtown running errands today and it's the first week of genuinely summer weather, so there were a lot of people out. When I got home I realized my dress was tucked into my underwear the entire time and no one said anything. It was super noticeable. Everyone definitely saw.
Hey, so your shoulder has been a great place for my tears to land, thank you for being on the internet. Not sure I can help you - but I'd like to thank you for making my days better. Fantabulous is a real word and thanks for the kitten cameo, that made my entire day.
I was hoping it would be the North Korean daily requirement but alas! Also, the "English cucumber" that you held up looks just like a regular slicing cucumber here in the US (and are usually peeled before eating). Here, an English cucumber is much longer and thinner, and is usually wrapped in plastic. Their skin can be left on. Excellent video, it makes me want to start cooking Korean food, which has always intimidated me.
FOOD technologist here. The meat was not of it actually normal to turn darker. Does not mean u can't use it. They normally put a solution of nitrogen carbonate or Colorososalt in it to keep it from colloring and make it look raw.
I love this video. The food looks delicious. I have been on an Ellbat binge after getting out of hospital yesterday. Your kittens is adorable. Hope the exam went well!
Ellbat, I have to say, you are one of the few TH-camrs, that make me want to watch the ad part of the video. But today you even got me to pause the video, because I wasn't able to see the screen during the ad, because CUTENESS OVERLOAD. I'm sorry, but I need Atlas to be in every video, he is absolutely adorable😍

You takin the piss? (favourite British saying, sorry) What are the odds.
Good video though so far, going to go watch the rest. First time I saw your cat.
King Kohls lol
I cook a lot when i cook dinner and then eat is as breakfast/lunch de next day
Sarcasm you have a very practical sense of sarcasm, because it is perplexing on how anyone can burn their oven.
I cannot believe that.
20:54 Clearly you have exquisite chef skills; your humility and sarcasm, cannot hide your talents.
"In true bisexual fashion, I gave the meat a pass" has my bi ass dying 🤣🤣🤣
This is peak bisexual culture
I’m so tired it took me like half an hour to get this... 😂
@@dark_baphomet i didn’t get it until i read this comment 😭
Bro I was slow to get it but when I did I died 😂😂
I liked this video for this one liner alone without watching to the end 🤣❤️
ok but y does Elena say the most iconic things
like every 5 seconds is just her saying something iconic
😭😭
Hear me out, the 'cooking fatigue' was actually dread of doing the dishes afterwards-
FACT.
That's why I've reconsidered many one-pot recipes 😂
Truth lol
Try working 90-100 hours a week in a restaurant, and still having to make meals for your family to warm up....
Then coming home to a dirty kitchen...after you just cleaned a giant kitchen.....
Cooking fatigue is for the weak (I hated my job, so take it all as sarcasm)
@@POTATOEMPN same thing as cooking 3 meals lol XD
The cat scratch on your hand while you hold Atlas is a big mood. They are lovable demons
Dude he plays so rough is wild 😭😭

The octopus is completely optional, I have never used it. Sometimes I put in shrimp paste because I like the funk, but again, not needed.
Maanchi is great. I showed my Korean grandma her videos and she goes" theta not a Korean accent. She's not Korean! " 😂 Lol but she did say that her kimchi recipe is pretty accurate. Of course every family has a kimchi recipe that gets passed down generation to generation, so no one recipe will ever be the same
Yes! I use her emergency kimchi recipe because I’m lazy!
AS A KOREAN IM SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THIS VIDEO (I'm at the beginning of the video) I HOPE YOU LIKE IT
I’m proud to say that I value Elena more than fanfic
We love the chaotic energy
omg so clever I watched all of the integration corner cos I couldn’t get enough of the cat
He’s a marketing genius
@@Ellbat indeed he is
As a Korean follower I have to say you FREAKEN’ KILLED IT! Everything you cooked looked delicious and I’m so happy we share a love of food! 🥰🍛
This made me so happy !!! 😭 thank u so much 🥺

Ellbat is such a frickin legend!
Yup pretty much, an absolute Legend
In my opinion a “legend” wouldn’t pay towards animals being slaughtered, forcefully impregnated and treated as a commodity.

Best rice to try, Jasmine rice for its lite aromatic, and Calrose is cheaper but rounder and starchier, always wash your rice thoroughly

Exactly 19 years ago my grandfather died after 2 years struggling with stomach cancer. It has been a really rough day so I would like to thank you for bringing a bit a joy to my day with your videos.
I have been a fan for about 2 years now.
Taz + Elena
= my go to when I have a mental crisis
well i do not have a vent, but i figured i’d talk a bit here because why not. i got the first dose of my covid vaccine today! it’s a little later than a lot of people have been getting it, but i’m really happy. aside from that, the school year’s almost over. that’s good, because i’m barely holding on, but i’ll really miss my soccer team. we also go up north in the summer, and i’m excited for the outdoors without pavement everywhere! anyways, i’ll leave you alone and watch the video now. i hope you’re doing well everyone, and i love you ellbat!
I don't know why reading this made me happy, I hope you do great in the exams and have a nice summer 💜
"walking without pavement everywhere" sounds perfect! 😊👍
"if you're having a bad day and you want to vent, i'll be your internet shoulder to cry on" omg i love you. my day was meh, thanks for asking muah
Almonds "good for the brain... good for the heart??" "Chicken feels like baby cheeks!!" "I ate it because.... science!!"😂 Also, this is literally me in the kitchen... I don't know if I'm doing this right but it'll be fine!!!
okay but like your probably like on my top five favorite youtubers ever, also i love korean food so much, its so good!!!
I'm so happy when you upload. Helps me get through the day. Lately it's rough but you make it better.
Glad to see your face today Ellbat. I needed some cheer. I’m having surgery tomorrow on my foot and the anxiety is real. I dropped a kitchen knife while chopping some lettuce and the knife hit the “perfect” spot. It severed the tendon to my big toe, the main tendon to my whole foot, and a nerve. Needless to say, I’m never eating lettuce again!
Also, your kitten is adorable!! 😍
Hope the surgery went well x
This was such an inspirational video! I enjoy cooking and want to try these recipes. Atlas is such a beautiful good boy. The kitten months are so precious 💖
Can't wait until ydyb s2 🥰 I want to buy a beanie to wear with my hijab!
Atlas is so cute ahhh 🥺❤
Omggggg !!!! I would love to see you style YDYB 🥺🥺 it would be such an honour as I want YDYB to be for everyone, and for everyone to feel represented and comfortable in it 😭💜
I haven't watched the video yet but I know it's gonna be a good video already! I've had such a rough couple months and your content has made it so much easier to cope with. You're honestly one of the best TH-camrs out there and I feel so happy that I found you when I did. Hope you're doing well much love 💜
I’m so sorry you’ve had a rough few months, i promise there are better days coming !! Sending u all the love and light, I’m so glad I could help a small bit 💜💜
@@Ellbat you don't understand how much that has made my week. Scrap that my year!! Honestly thank you so much💜💜 p.s your study sessions are such a good idea I'm definitely gonna use that to help me study too as I start uni in September
This video has made me so hungry 🤤
If beef has turned brown it is just oxidation, that greeny marble tinge to yours is off. For anyone reading this that doesn't know... With beef that's off stroke it with your pointer finger and feel it between your finger and thumb ( like this 👌) and if it's very sticky OR very slimy it's not good... Also give it a wiff if it makes you gag it's very off.
Yours truely a chef ❤️
I didn't skip the integration corner today because OH MY GOD THIS KITTIE IS SO SWEET
And hey, Ellbat is so fcking shiny and gorgeous with this hair :o
I love watching your vids.
Comical Ellie all your experiments. Thanks for the laughs !!!
stop Atlas is so so so precious omg and all of the food looked so yummy!!!! I had bibimbap in K-town in Japan and it was so good - I would love to try more Korean food tho!!
I was about to go to bed but guess this is what I'm doing now
Lmfao me rn
Hey There! You totally crack me up! I absolutely love your humor & sarcasm!💕💕 You’re awesome sauce !!
After a year of me watching you, my mother finally sends you kisses back.
I have never had Korean food, but I am definitely intrigued by it now. Also, cooking/meal prep fatigue is 100% a thing. I usually only cook a few days a week and then eat left overs because I cooking 3x a day like you did here would make me miserable.
Also, the way your kitten was sleeping during the ad portion of the video made my morning - he's adorable
Oh a new video, this will be amazing! I love you content! :)
Dude I found you on my recommend and you had me so hooked I literally just watched all your videos (the whole vid cuz you know watch time ++ little cheeky thumbs up 👍) hahah you are so freaking smart man and hilarious!! On to your 2nd channel 😁
Aww look at me simping 😂
Let me just say that I just enjoy listening to you talk. Sometimes I might not be interested in the topic, but might still play the video and just use it as background while I play a phone game or something. I'm sure the accent plays into it, but mostly your voice is just soothing.
El: I'm trying out Korean food for the first time
Also El: literally gets bowls you have to set on fire to use...
I usually cook 2-3 meals a day. But I enjoy cooking and really appreciate a good home cooked meal. I find it easier if you can find dump style recipes for most of them to avoid the cooking fatigue. Like 1 pan roast or sautee, slow cooker dump and go etc. Cuts back on dishes and time spent prepping. Also using the dishwasher if its too much. The tough part is finding healthy ones. But you can even cut time on prep with precut produce or frozen.
The main secret of koreans health is really kimchi, it has SO MUCH good stuff, i ferment kimchi once every 2 months, the fermentation takes only 3 days and it's done at last for months. Recommending! 👌
Cute kitten!
Incidentally, a trick I've found for marinating meat is to put the meat and the marinade in a freezer bag and smush it around. Then fridge it for a bit. You can then tear open and empty the freezer bag into the pan you're using, the freezer bag can then be thrown out, saving on washing up but unfortunately not being very green
for the Japche, if you want more spice - gojugaru (the chili powder that goes into the paste you have) or chili oil into the sauce. it helps with some kick
ahhh u read all ur comments? girl i just want to say how much i love u!! 🥺💕 u inspire me & i love how body & nutrition positive u are! 🤍🤍 ur vids always make me happy 💕
Loving the kitten. He needs to be in all videos. He’s a magnificent fluff! I usually skip through the ads but watched for the kitteh!
Damn I love heeerrr, like she's so authentic and funny, I just caaan't 💕 This channel's literally the beeeest 🤩
Such a fun video! 💗 I love your bowl set for dolsot bibimbap, makes me wanna try it myself one day 💕
Such a joy to watch! I’ve not seen many videos recently so glad to watch this one!
I like the yardbird too Jean! Hello to you both from Oregon!
Love Atlas, your cooking looked fun. I have done that when cooking a lot of dishes for a party and when I premade all of my family's meals for two weeks so they could eat while I was away on business. Your presentation was of the food was lovely. I felt sorry about all of the dishes you had to wash just before an exam or just after depending on the situation. You have inspired me to make something new the day after shopping.
Rather than 'dehydrating' your cucumber - the word you're looking for is 'macerating' which is the process of drawing out the moisture in food with salt or sugar.
Omg, I watch both you and Taz and I always thought that your videos had a similar style! It's always so funny when a youtuber watches an other youtuber you like yourself😂🙌🏽
Thanks for this video...!!!
I had my COVID shot today and was feeling bad but you made my day better;-)
Love your content and personality
I got my 2md one on the 5th. For a good week I was sick I was also tired. But today I am fully protected against covid
Love that you’re back
I seriously love your videos. Your personality and sense of humor are everything. 💕
Okay, I had a bad day and then I'm not even exagerating, IT JUST GOT A MILION TIMES BETTER! thank you for uploadiiiing!
u should try henna el
i just did it for the first time and it took 3 hours ohhh myyy gawwwdddd
Try the asian market ova where yah at, there are pickled cucumber, pickeled daikon raddiah /qhite sometimes wit sting cut carrots in a jar, and try also blanched chpi sum-
Since you invited venting: I spent a while downtown running errands today and it's the first week of genuinely summer weather, so there were a lot of people out. When I got home I realized my dress was tucked into my underwear the entire time and no one said anything. It was super noticeable. Everyone definitely saw.
Hey, so your shoulder has been a great place for my tears to land, thank you for being on the internet. Not sure I can help you - but I'd like to thank you for making my days better. Fantabulous is a real word and thanks for the kitten cameo, that made my entire day.
Thank you so much for this video, I really enjoyed it allot. Love your videos. Stay safe. 💗 From South Africa
Omg now I want to try making all these recipes! Lots of love from Brazil Ellbat❤️
This just made my day a whole lot better
I was hoping it would be the North Korean daily requirement but alas! Also, the "English cucumber" that you held up looks just like a regular slicing cucumber here in the US (and are usually peeled before eating). Here, an English cucumber is much longer and thinner, and is usually wrapped in plastic. Their skin can be left on. Excellent video, it makes me want to start cooking Korean food, which has always intimidated me.
Everything looked so freaking good 😋 yum. Gotta try South Korean food, it's been on my mind for some time 😊
I love your videos!!! You and your cat are so adorable😍😍😍
You are so kind
I love you. you are wonderful for just being simply who you are.
omg does elena have a podcast i love her personality sm
FOOD technologist here. The meat was not of it actually normal to turn darker. Does not mean u can't use it. They normally put a solution of nitrogen carbonate or Colorososalt in it to keep it from colloring and make it look raw.
Really?? Even if it smelt kinda funky??
I love this video. The food looks delicious. I have been on an Ellbat binge after getting out of hospital yesterday. Your kittens is adorable. Hope the exam went well!
Korean food is the BEST!! Great job!
you are my fave TH-camr NO LIE
Yes I love this video! I used to work at a Korea bistro all the food you made they had and omg soooo delish!! ❤️❤️
That was quite an amount of food. I could not have eaten all on one day. But these dishes all looked so delicious! Good and healthy cooking!👍👍
I’ve been binge-watching your videos for weeks now. Love your personality queen👑❤️
Girl your cooking technique is better then mine, and I cook maybe once a week haha! The food looked delicious and colorful...made me want some.
Omgosh Atlas has the cutest nose I have ever seen on a kitten I love that it is outlined in Black lol
I love the kurzgesagt posters in the background! One of my fav channels for sure
Oh 100%. Although recently their videos have been SUPER existential crisis-y and I can’t watch without having a meltdown 😭😭
I am so glad I took the leap to subscribe!!
Your videos are so fun to watch swear to god💖
Korean is one of my favourite cuisines, my favourite dish is pork and kimchi stew. Your bibimbap looked just fine!
Ellbat, I have to say, you are one of the few TH-camrs, that make me want to watch the ad part of the video. But today you even got me to pause the video, because I wasn't able to see the screen during the ad, because CUTENESS OVERLOAD.
I'm sorry, but I need Atlas to be in every video, he is absolutely adorable😍
