When you put a garlic in an acid, allicin reacts with the amino acids in the garlic to produce rings of carbon-nitrogen called pyrroles. Pyrroles linked together form polypyrroles, which causes the change of colors :))
Garlic contains an odorless sulfur compound called alliin. It also contains an enzyme called alliinase. When a bulb or clove of garlic is in its natural, whole state, the two chemicals have little interaction (and the garlic is relatively odorless). When you cut or crush the garlic, the alliin and alliinase are mixed, creating an organosulphate compound called allicin. This is what gives garlic its pungent odor and distinctive flavor. And that's why garlic gets only stronger the more you chop or crush it. When garlic is combined with an acid (such as vinegar), the allicin reacts with amino acids in the garlic to produce rings of carbon-nitrogen called pyrroles. Pyrroles linked together form polypyrroles, which throw colors. Four pyrroles clustered together create green (this is why chlorophyll is green). Three pyrroles linked together creates blue. A similar color-forming reaction can occur when the garlic is in contact with minerals from certain metals, including copper, aluminum, iron, and tin. The minerals can come from pots or pans made of those metals, or it can come from trace minerals in the water. You’re welcome!!😁

When the garlic turns blue: chapter one The color change is caused by a reaction between enzymes and sulfur-containing amino acids in the garlic (the same enzymes are responsible for garlic's flavor). When these enzymes are activated by mild acid, they produce blue.
@@lilmess5234 it’s activated by the ‘mild acid’ in the vinegar which is around 2.5 on the PH scale, which isnt actually that mild 2.5 is kinda strong also I’m like 99% sure so if I’m wrong and someone knows exactly how it happens please tell me
@@robey2516 You're absolutely right, vinegar is pretty much dilute acetic acid. when the garlic gets crushed/chopped/etc, it allows those compounds to interact with the acid to give us the reaction
My cousin and I literally microwaved nacho flavored Doritos with slices of American cheese on top. Multiple times. I think we've all made our own "broke" nachos before.
4:20 Hey a chemist here, in case you‘re curious: Garlic contains both the aminoacid alliin and its corresponding enzyme alliinase. Normally they‘re perfectly separated in the garlic. However when you crush the garlic the two mix together (This is also how the characteristic smell of garlic forms). Some of the products of this reaction are so called thiosulfinates. Those further react together with the help of vinegar and heat to form colorful pigments.
As someone who started watching Food Wishes about a decade ago and has really learned a ton from the channel, I loved the subtle reference to Chef John’s cheesy jokes. A nice little respectable nod from one fantastic chef to another.
There's a gene that allows people to taste the chemicals in cilantro. Without it, people say it tastes like soap. So no one is crazy for liking or hating cilantro.
To be specific, it is a variation of the Olfactory Receptor 6A2, and the reason why it taste like soap is because cilantro contains aldehyde chemicals, which are present in soap, stinkbugs and cinnamon.
@Lisa Kerekes don't get me wrong, I love the taste, but I've said that chopping a ton of it at once smells like a stinkbug and I'm often met with crazed looks.
I hate to disagree, but he still missed the mark. The "Naco" is taco meets nacho, meaning you must combine the ingredients of the two in order to do it justice. This was still just nachos wrapped in a tortilla. I love ya Babish, but it's still wrong.
@Amber Lomu I hate to disagree, but you're the one who is wrong. He was clearly using a tortilla (which is what's used in a soft TACO) which is why he's able to make that bag look. Because it's not a hard taco shell, but a soft taco tortilla.
@@lemonzest8650 Order a taco from a place like taco bell, you don't just get a tortilla, you get meat/veges/cheese. Then order the nachos, you get meat/chips/cheese. Open your taco, insert nachos, pinch together like a teepee to close. That's a naco IIRC from like a decade ago.
I showed my mom the jalapeño part where you make your own jalapeños and guess what, It’s been a year it’s now a family recipe. Our house literally smells like vinegar at all times.
Happy about the jalapeño part, feal so sorry for you on the vinegar part, because perseonaly I think it is hard to stay in a room that smell like vinegar
Nope, those are freaking delicious!! i have a habit of letting nachos sit so i can enjoy those first and turn the toppings onto the unsoggy chips. things get crispier as i eat or i can alternate between crispy and soggy! It's the best!!
The problem with nachos is that every single recipe seems to load all the toppings on top, once you eat the top layer you are done and all you got left is a bunch of dry crisps. For nachos, the nacho crisps should be layered with the toppings to make sure that there is not a single un-topped nacho.
Babish is secretly a great impressionist. He did a spot-on Michael Caine at the end of the Teddy Brûlée video and a spot-on Arthur Morgan in the Bear Stew video
I was super surprised when he said that. Last time I made bechamel for an "almost" mac&cheese I thought I got the more mealy texture from the cold milk. No "lumps" certainly, but it wasn't perfectly smooth, either. Something else then, I guess.
@@dowfreak7 You might have had too hard a cheese. Very aged cheeses don't melt well. You could have boiled the milk which can cause it to separate. If you didn't whisk the flour enough when making the roux it could have had small lumps. if you used pre grated cheese the starch on the outside could have made small lumps. Without actually seeing and tasting it no way to be sure but those could all result in a mealy texture.
Well yeah it’s the perfect salt to use when seasoning to taste. That and the pink Himalayan salt from Costco. Iodized salt are just microscopic cubes of salt, kosher is uneven and flakier which results in it incorporating into a dish better than microscopic cubes of salt.
I have made these verbatim for a few parties before, and literally everyone who has had them has said they are the best nachos they have ever had! Yes, it's some work, but I can pretty much guarantee you that it will be a hit!
@@s.engelsman4521 Not much oil required to do the trick. I've never measured but would make a guess at 1/2 teaspoon per medium-sized avocado (obviously avocado size/meat yield would play a role).
I normally dont like jalapeños, but that quick-pickling method makes them so tasty! I just spent four hours making this recipe and it was 100% worth it.
I used this basic recipe, plus some Mexican oregano, whole allspice, and whole coriander (added after the liquid/salt/sugar/garlic comes to a boil, reduced to a simmer and stirred for a minute, then continue with jalapeños), this morning, and it took about 15 minutes including the slicing. So easy, so good!
To anyone who sees this: build the nachos directly on the metal baking pan staying with a layer of cheese. After baking, the bottom cheese gets crispy. Next level stuff.
Oh man. To be one of Babish's stoned friends must be heaven. Edit: Thank you for the likes my stoned friends, and thank Babish for fueling the munchies.
I subscribed immediately when he started counting like Mr. Owl. I came for the nachos (and The Good Place reference) and got distracted by the humour. The nachos looked incredible and I am jealous of the stoners who got to eat them. The Kim Possible nacos was an unexpected bonus.
Don't feel bad for using store bought chips at the bottom, the best part of the bottom of the nachos is grabbing a few crunchy chips and a few cheese soaked chips and chomping into them together. Delicious.
@@mamaowlbear3366 For clarification, use the "shredding attachment" of your food processor (sold separately). Do not food process cheese. That would just make you sad.
What he mentions at 7:40 about the guacamole and sour cream is so important. When I make nachos at home, I usually end up putting sour cream and guacamole into separate makeshift Saran Wrap piping bags so I can squirt them in drizzles all over the nachos.
@@ddobermenn There's a gene that allows people to taste the chemicals in cilantro, without it, some people say it tastes like soap. Hence me being glad I can taste the chemicals so no soapy cilantro
Every stoner needs a friend that can cook. Trust me. I smoke and I cook but there is nothing like a friend cooking for you when you're high. food makes every session a blessing. but friendship makes 1000000000000000000X better.

I normally dont like jalapeños, but that quick-pickling method makes them so tasty! I just spent four hours making this recipe and it was 100% worth it.
Same, I only like pickled jalapeños
I used this basic recipe, plus some Mexican oregano, whole allspice, and whole coriander (added after the liquid/salt/sugar/garlic comes to a boil, reduced to a simmer and stirred for a minute, then continue with jalapeños), this morning, and it took about 15 minutes including the slicing. So easy, so good!
Interesting. Thank you
@@elizabethpemberton8445 I also added sliced carrots with the jalapeño's. Little bit of colour for contrast and hey, pickled carrots are great!
That's awesome! I admire the dedication
To anyone who sees this: build the nachos directly on the metal baking pan staying with a layer of cheese. After baking, the bottom cheese gets crispy. Next level stuff.
Oh man. To be one of Babish's stoned friends must be heaven.
Edit: Thank you for the likes my stoned friends, and thank Babish for fueling the munchies.
Oh! So nice!

That commercial is still on tv.
@Sir Solid Snail the toostie pop lollipop commercial

I did this eight years ago, the homemade nachos magically disappeared! Need to do this again! So delicious. 🤤🥰😋
Hello. How are you today? I have to say that your profile is beautiful and your article is worth reading.
That was a ridiculously solid Tootsie Roll Owl voice.
*tootsie pop
No No, he’s right. It’s a Tootsie Roll in the words of babish
I’m just glad there are other folks here who still remember that damned asshole owl.
Champloo Ronin Fuckin dickhead kept eating the tootsie pops instead of licking them.
@@JC-ln6on Hell, that commercial still airs sometimes. I literally saw it just last month.
Andrew: I’m quoting the Tootsie roll commercial with the owl. You’re too young.
Me: What heathen do you take me for
True, I've seen multiple times. At least 10.
i only know about it because my brothers have been seeing that commercial for 12 years.
I'm happy I got to see the commercials of the owl myself
That commercial is iconic. I basically have it ingrained in my mind due to it being played so many times
I recognized the voice but couldn't remember where it was from until he said it

I am so unbelievably jealous of his stoned friends
IKR
I subscribed immediately when he started counting like Mr. Owl. I came for the nachos (and The Good Place reference) and got distracted by the humour. The nachos looked incredible and I am jealous of the stoners who got to eat them. The Kim Possible nacos was an unexpected bonus.
Don't feel bad for using store bought chips at the bottom, the best part of the bottom of the nachos is grabbing a few crunchy chips and a few cheese soaked chips and chomping into them together. Delicious.
Hahaha I ruined it and made it 51 likes instead of 50

"You are the Chef John of whatever's going on."
Hell yes we are!
I do declare that Chef John must see this video for Babish's epic rhyming skills.
"Chef John of.. whatever's goin on."
That gets a thumbs up.
Plus it came right after he mentioned adding cayenne. Can't get more Chef John than that.
I've watched this video so many times and and I can't get of the " 80's fist bump of triumph" part. It gets me every time
Babish: “I want to do something a bit easier”
Also Babish: “now grate two pounds of cheese”
Food processor is your friend
@@mamaowlbear3366 For clarification, use the "shredding attachment" of your food processor (sold separately). Do not food process cheese. That would just make you sad.
@@ObitoSigma lol fair enough, I assumed everyone would have that. A lot of times they are sold with the extra blades.
creates own pickles
But kitchenaid stand mixers have a cheese shredding attachment
the chef john reference is just 👌🏾
IKR food wishes is awesome

why is nobody talking about Babish’s dance as the chips are soaking in the water
Yes
good eye

Igor de Carvalho Mariano lmao
Who gives a shit
What he mentions at 7:40 about the guacamole and sour cream is so important. When I make nachos at home, I usually end up putting sour cream and guacamole into separate makeshift Saran Wrap piping bags so I can squirt them in drizzles all over the nachos.
you’re a genius

"I'm burnt, so I need something easy." **pickles own jalepenos**

@@ddobermenn why say it again when you can read it again my dude
@@ddobermenn There's a gene that allows people to taste the chemicals in cilantro, without it, some people say it tastes like soap. Hence me being glad I can taste the chemicals so no soapy cilantro
Yea you lucky potato. Im struggling

"You are after all the Chef John of... whatever's going on."

"got some stoned friends in the other room"
why didn't i have a friend like you when i was a stoner
idve died
As an avid stoner and aspiring chef, my friends are very glad to have me around after a sesh
If you are saying “when I was a stoner” you were never a stoner.
Every stoner needs a friend that can cook. Trust me. I smoke and I cook but there is nothing like a friend cooking for you when you're high. food makes every session a blessing. but friendship makes 1000000000000000000X better.
@@Simulated_lifeform broo. Us stoners don't need no more gatekeepers. Everyones welcome.
i have the biggest weakness to nachos. i promise you could serve me the most basic nachos and i would enjoy it like i was biting into the clouds of heaven.

Also Babie: *makes 10 pounds of nachos*
Nice
I'd say the nachos are more fried than he is
"You're probably too young"
Welp time to turn into dust.
That feeling when you're considered "old"

yeah I'm 14 too and I got it

- Babish proceeds to find film where nachos are on screen for 3 seconds
It's a hard job, but someone's gotta do it lmao

"You are however the Chef John of... Whatever's goin' on." Since this is coming right after a reference to cayenne, this is a joke with as many layers as those nachos.
So, two?
@@johnrankin7135 Well, technically Whatever's Going On is a song by The Special Goodness, and those jokes are usually some kinds of musical references. That huge nacho platter was basically three less huge nachos stacked onto each other. So, three~
@@BlightVonDrake Chef John is a chef on YT who commonly makes this joke as well as mentions cayenne pepper. He is featured on All Recipes page a lot so its actually a reference to him.
Haha! LOVED the Chef Jon reference.
