@@cheesed-kun8445 it's funny when foreigners try to teach me my own culture. It's fine to customize food recipes when you don't like or you cannot eat some ingredients but in that case people should say it.
I remember he mentioned it in another video too, and someone in the comments said that "dresses for men" are just dresses... but my man is like, 7-feet-tall. I'll make Brad a dress that'll fit him, if he goes ice fishing with Matty Matheson.
reading the comments i wont watch anymore of this guy..wat a load ofcrap..dont care for alot of it though u dont need tostop watching. wat a incohesive idiot..garlic is in every dish but for those that like t fine but dont need to be a fanboy like that.. same with chees and anchovies.. ur an diot lnsdey.. take ur garlic elsewere..dont put that on my plate.
I grew up in a west coast Italian family that had year round gardens, home made jarred vegetable antipasto and giardiniera were staples in the pantry and fridge. My Nonna added a little tomato sauce to her brine at times and it is wonderful. The antipasto had a chunk of tuna added to the top of the jar. We have a healthy long lived family. Love this vid! Thanks Bon Appetit...
My father has been wanting to learn how to pickle things for a long time. So, when this video first came out, I showed it to him... Today, my mother and father are in the kitchen following the recipe for the fourth time (at least). Thanks Brad =)
Listen. I’ve lived in Chicago all my life. I don’t know if other American cities are as giardiniera- directed as we are, but I as long as I can remember I’ve been on a spiritual journey for the most crunchy, delicious giardiniera I can find. I see now that it was within me all the time to create this miracle. Thank you Brad, in all seriousness. I’ll never have to buy giardiniera from the store again, and when the apocalypse happens, I’ll be running this city
I know this comment is old but you HAVE to try Southside Smitti’s! Best I’ve found ever. They always have a booth at the Italian fest on Taylor. Last time I checked they sold at Mariano’s but they also have a website and Facebook.
Please make an episode on Tofu and Tempeh. It's very trending now, especially the latter, but to make it from scratch for homecook could be a little bit intimidating while in fact it's actually easy.
Brad keeps doing everything fermented, in a couple years he's gonna be fermenting wourder. Brad was probably made in one of those fermentation jars. Which would explain why he likes them so much.
I just made this Sunday, today is Tuesday. To say that this is very active and fragrant is an understatement. My entire kitchen and living room smell VERY strong of this. I mean it's going to be awesome, I have no doubt, but it might have to be stored in the basement for the sake of my kombucha. ;)
I looove Brad’s episodes so much!!!. I’d like to make a couple of points. 1) adding vinegar kills off the probiotics that lacto-fermentation creates. Probiotics are the good bacteria for better gut health. 2) if you want a more vinegary flavor, simply ferment for a longer period. That being said, food is food. So if your priority is a particular flavor profile and adding vinegar gives you that and you’re not concerned with the probiotics then add the vinegar. With cooking and food, it’s all up to you, you make the choices, that’s what’s fun about it.
@@rloz2694 vinegar and lacto-fermentation are both ways of preserving food. I can keep lacto fermented foods in the fridge just as long as vinegar preserved foods. Just about any food can spoil though, as long as it smells good, looks good and tastes right, you should be fine.
Dude, Vin, broskidoski, Vinniedavichi, c'mon man. Let us hear the rants. You know damn well we all wanna listen to his words of wisdom! Don't cut out the long rants anymore bro! Please!
I know exactly what he was about to complain about. You can't pour anything out of those measuring jugs faster than a trickle or it starts leaking down the side and gets all over your table. The spout is always way too small. Someone needs to sort it out
I'm pretty sure "Vinny'" is not his name and the conversation went a little like this: Brad: "Hey, new camera guy, bopbopbop. What's your name?" New Camera Guy: "Jason." Brad: "Jason?" Noooo...that's not gonna work. I'm a call yoooouuuu....Vinny. Yeah. I like that more. Ok. You ready, Vin?" Vinny: "It's Jason." Brad: "You gotta work with me, Vin, why are you saying you're a different name? Trust me, you're a Vinny." Vinny: *sighs* Brad: "What, you don't like your own name, Vin?" aaaaaaaaaaaand SCENE.
Lol. His name is Vincent, and he does all the videos (AFAIK) on this channel. Everyone else just calls him Vincent though lol. Just Brad giving him nicknames. They seem on the same wavelength for sure though lol
It’s really easy to build an airlock by attaching a tube to the lid and running it down into water. As gas build it will escape through the water, but nothing should go back in. Makes it easy to have 1 water jar with multiple fermentations going.
my grandmother always had a larger pieces of vege and would place them on a plate for an antipasto, she sometimes added grapeleaves for the tannins. I always have a jar of something crunchy in vinegar for grab a snack.. my favorite is green beans packed with chili and garlic! brad do lupini beans!
Not sure if it's the same brand, but my glass one I used to microwave water for coffee making gave me quite the wake-up one morning. Shoutout to boiling water. You don't need coffee after you run that down your leg.
You mean the glass container broke or the water exploded? It's very rare to have tap water get super heated, but it can happen, microwaves just aren't the safest way to boil water.
Christmas 2019 I'm buying my father everything he needs for fermenting things himself. For the first time ever I'll give him something he'll actually get excited about!

10:56 This mike guy is having too much fun. xD
Hunzi!
This series is honestly one of my favorite things that has ever existed on TH-cam.
The knowledge. The humor. The editing. It's all just so perfect.
I lost it with the "gutted bread."
Same!! I HATE that!! LOL
So did he
I've never seen that tbh, so I thought something horribly malicious had happened to that bread slice at first LOL.
Lol "What are we makin boats?"
use a tortilla if you wanna gut the bread. smh lol
"I'd wear a dress... Alright, Vinny!" lmao

Is He OK? with Brad

I'M A HUGE FAN OF ALLYSON!
"hard" agree? Strongly maybe.

Get it together Vinny

Yes, the measuring cup mouth *does* still dribble down the side unless you hard pour.
Or some when you pour too hard. There's a sweet spot right in the middle.
So obnoxious!
Depends on the design
Lol, we all knew what he was gonna say there.
He does hesitate when he pours something. You've got to have confidence to pour without drizzling half of it.
freakishly tall man chops vegetables for 10 minutes with a cool knife while constantly mispronouncing the word water

I really enjoyed the interaction in the kitchen this one. It felt more like hanging out with some friends.
it really did made it feel more lighthearted
That's what working in a kitchen usually feels like
I feel that people interact more in the office in bad weather.
I love working in a close knit friendly kitchen.
cut green beans into pieces
this is my last resort
fermentation
brad and vinny
use an airlock to keep the jar from seeping
This should be the top comment.
The fact that I can sing this just makes me giggle at my music choices early in life, XD!
I love your comment.
Is this a papa roach reference
I was looking for something like this ! Best.
the editor of these videos... hilarious. Give them a raise. 90% of why I watch these.
"Wourdur"
Matt Hunziker edits these :)
DONT censor Brad!!! I wanted to know why he wanted to pick a bone with manufacturer. I need hard hitting news guys!!!
It was how it sometimes goes down the side and makes a mess
Jordan Castleton the spouts don’t work
I figured it was the spout as thats what happens too me but i need brad too confirm
They never pour predictably and clean. Always spills
They might get demonetized
10:44 I also get that upset when I find that the bread of my sandwich has been gutted, love that saying though "What are we making... boats?" lol.
_窮 n
Trenching the bread is one thing, but they left nothing but the crust. That was ridiculous.
I grew up in a west coast Italian family that had year round gardens, home made jarred vegetable antipasto and giardiniera were staples in the pantry and fridge.

Finally!
Don't think that was Vinny

Moni B If you watch Brad's episode of Binging with Babish you can see like 60% of Vinny at the end when they eat the lasagna.

Should have Vinny cook something and have Brad record
"You can go smaller if you're into that, or you could go larger!"
