"What's the one thing Ben has taught us in 13 years?"
Always add a Bay leaf.
And a sprig of mint.
😂
If in doubt, make fish pie
Or quiche!
Add 4 bay leaves if no one's driving.
The normals "discovering" everything that they've been told over the years is wonderful.
In South East Asia you dip sour unripe fruits in a salty chili powder, I always assumed that combination was normal. Interesting to see them try with salt and pepper here
Brilliant. That makes so much sense. Love it.
yes, another combo that came to mind is watermelon dipped in salty chili powder as well. It's very popular in Vietnam
In Colombia we mix a lot of fruits with salt pepper and lemon, it’s delicious
Mangoes in salt and chilli yea
South asia too. guavas, raw mangoes with salt chilli
Indonesian here, Mike pronunciation of Jus Alpukat is actually spot on
For the Jus Alpukat recipe as far as I know most of the seller who sell it doesn't use any coffee in it. Instead they drizzle some chocolate condense milk on the wall of the glass, that's why the color is darker when you mix it. And I think it is work as a drink because as far as I know there is no savory meal that use avocado in Indonesian cuisine, so we doesn't really associate avocado as a savory ingredient
one upping this because this is the version I'm familiar with!
I think he use more cafe style, that ussually call avocado coffee, still use chocolate condense milk tough
In the juice stalls all around my city it’s quite common to ask the seller to add a sachet of instant coffee in your Jus Alpukat though.. but maybe it’s just regional thing
I've had it with coffee in it, sans chocolate, but at an Indonesian restaurant here in NYC. The owner said she had grown up drinking it, but as Leva said, maybe it's regional. Not sure exactly where in Indonesia she was from.
In my household, we always use coffee or mocha with our avocado and condensed milk, also usually we don't blend them, so we still have avocado texture there. I believe it's influenced by my Mom and Grandma who are from Ternate. But yeah most of the time they don't put coffee in for Jus Alpukat.
If I'm not mistaken, the soy sauce caramel that you're describing is a popular sauce for glutinous rice balls in Japan. That snack/sweet is called mitarashi dango
Except it also uses mirin
@ahoodedfigure1430 and sugar. Iirc its the same sauce used to coat teriyaki meat? So it helps balance the soy sauce which,appears to be what was ruining the ice cream experience for them.
I love this style of video. It would be fun to see the inverse of this, where you give the normals finished/combined foods and have them work out the pairing.
Immediately ran downstairs and tried the apple with salt and pepper. BRILLIANT! I became allergic to potatoes a few years ago and have been missing potato chips/crisps desperately. This works!!!🤯 Thanks guys!!!! ❤🥔❤
Is it just potatoes? You could get root veggie chips like beets and sweet potatoes maybe? 🥲
I saw someone roast radishes like you'd roast potatoes in the regular oven 'til they're done and then for a few minutes in the airfryer to make them more crispy.
@@karinberonius8799 Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look into that. I love radishes! Appreciate the suggestion. 👍
@@OneWeekTime Thanks for the suggestions! Much appreciated! Just potatoes, I'm afraid. I have tried sweet potato chips and a few different veg-based chips (beets included 😋), and while delicious, I was still looking for that unique potato chip experience. However, this apple with S and P combo really clicked with me! I used a Macintosh apple. Highly recommend if you haven't tried it. *chef's kiss*
@@bernerandgoldenmom7143 ☺️👍
In India it's pretty common to pair fruits with spices like Aamchoor ( powdered raw mango), salt, pepper we have an entire recipe called fruit chaat and it's divine !!!
Idea for a pass it on: at the start of every round, the person cooking is given a random ingredient that they MUST include in the dish
They've done a pass it on where each new person is given a choice of 2 ingredients that they must use I think 🙂
This but with a twist. For example a desert course using fermented products or a breakfast using strong spices. Maybe not as far as natto and icecream, but I could see odd pairings like fish fingers and sweet custard working (thank you Doctor Who for the idea. It's delicious). Or maybe very tart or astringent fruits in a savory dish.
this but make it ingredients previously used in poker face
Since this was a normals only episode (unless the chefs were there behind the camera) I would love to see them cook/bake something using these combos and see what the chefs think of it with no info going in
Balsamic vinegar and strawberries with a little sugar is lovely with clotted cream ice cream 😊
I personally love to eat sour apple or under-ripe mango with salt+chilli powder, also banana with peanut butter. In certain parts of Indonesia, we also eat pisang goreng (deep-fried plantain) with sambal 😋
Sounds great!
Pisang goreng with sambal sounds awesome to be honest!
I like banana and peanut butter; also apple and peanut butter.
I only like unripe bananas with my peanut butter; if it's ripe it's sweet on sweet and that's overwhelming
I only like unripe bananas, or just barely ripe!
I knew the apple one would work because I make a white apple-pepper gravy for my porkchops.
Yeah I've cooked pork with green apples and just use salt and pepper. It was one of my great, great grandmother's recipes (maybe older but she wrote it down)
Apple sauce with pork is pretty normal and, in my mind, pork would always be cooked with the usual salt and pepper.
Black pepper on strawberries is a classic combination, so I knew apples and salt/pepper would work.
Pork chops and applesauce is a classic from childhood. I've done it with a chunkier homemade savoury applesauce. Onions boiled down with the apples, salt and pepper, maybe a but of something else for a hint of spice. Some herbs might work, but savoury applesauce is great.
Apples and old cheddar is a fairly common pairing too so I fully agree.
Whoever gave Barry the ‘pretentious’ shirt is a genius! 😂
He is dainty and posh
I mean.. that's a pretty low bar for genius but I think you're right!
What brand is it?
Barry is the poster child for pretentiousness
I don’t get it? Why is Barry’s planish off white tee pretentious??
"Never trust him on a night."
Would love to hear some of the stories behind that comment about Ben. 😂😂😂
😂 one day maybe 🤣
@SortedFood maybe this weekend. It could be part Janice trivia.😅
Balsamic (either a reduction, or the real, proper expensive stuff) on vanilla or strawberry icecream is delicious.
Also a few years ago over here in Australia, Cadbury made a Vegemite chocolate that was weirdly good. It did the salted caramel thing mostly, but also enhanced the funk that vegemite has.
I reckon the right amount of marmite will probably have the same effect, but i dont know what the ratio would... Probably only a tiny amount.
It's delicious on fresh strawberries too.
Balsamic glaze is the best way to get some kind of value from those strawberries and peaches you get at the supermarket that look better than they taste.
@@bmljenny ooh, never tried it on peaches. Will have to remember.
BTW chocolate and Marmite has been a thing for over a decade, made famous by Paul A. Young
I put salt/pepper on my apple slices with a bit of Balsamic reduction drizzled over. Really nice, can't really describe it.
that sounds delicious!
It works really well with strawberries too
Do a quick pickled apple
Its like apples on a salad delicious
I went into this looking at new flavor pairs, but I gotta say, i'm more interested in the fact that I never knew what "bubblegum _flavoring"_ actually was before this!
So you're telling me that that sweet classic taste is actually a little bit of everything, including the most popular gum flavors? I can't believe it has banana, pineapple, cinnamon, and *cloves* of all things! I can see why the wintergreen, but you never really taste it...
maybe the boys can try making their own bubble gum flavor from the raw ingredients?
That might have been that specific bubblegum drink. I think the 'bubblegum flavour' is a type of aromatic esther, 'cause you can synthesize bubblegum flavour rather straightforwardly. That's where it came from- someone in a lab was mixing stuff together, thought a chemical smelled nice, figured out it wasn't toxic, and used it as a flavouring.
@@Earthenfist Ah, I getcha. Thanks, I thought the flavors were too subtle to actually be used in regular bubblegum flavored gum.
Jamie and Bazzles together are a force of nature
it's subtle, but 1:11 "Jamie loves bacon, lol lol lol" and the camera shakes from whoever laughing. 😂 man, I love this channel.
9:47 First thing that crossed my mind was the Avolatte. A latte inside of an avocado....and im betting that Barry had one of those already😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
5:36 grilled watermelon with salt & pepper is one of my favs
Oooh really?! Gotta try that!
Drizzle of balsamic vinegar and crumbled feta and it's amazing on top of a leafy salad.
Jamie's expression with the Marmite was priceless. Would love to see more of these. How about trying mint and peanut butter or mint and peanuts? Back in the day I used to put peanut butter chocolate candies and chocolate mint bar pieces in with ice cream and I enjoyed it quite a bit.
Vanilla ice cream and pumpkin seed oil is the elevated, tastier version of that soy sauce combo! It’s a pretty popular combination in Austria and tastes AMAZING!
Little do you know: They have already done that in a previous weird combo video. It is a pretty good video.
Can’t wait for the Wild Weekender. It’ll be a sunny distraction during a weekend filled with rain. ☀️
It's going to be so good!
I'm so happy I was able to get the entire weekend free of anything for this.😁
Loved this guys! Now take your scientific findings and prepare a perfectly balanced dish for Ebbers. May I suggest a sundae with coffee avocado ice cream, caramelized bubblegum bacon, and marmite sauce, he'd love that! 😆
I have a one-pan baked dinner with chicken and apples I use on my weekends, so I definitely already knew the salt/pepper combo worked really nicely with the apples. I also just really love oddball food combos that don't seem like they should work on paper to begin with so I actively seek these out when I can for something new and punchy.
When I was a kid in the 1950s - 1960s I remember my grandfather putting salt and pepper on his watermelon. When I mentioned it to another family member later, I was told, "Nobody does that!" But the memory is very clear, and this video confirms that I saw what I saw.
You guys always make my days better!😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
I started putting sea salt on orange slices earlier this year and it is unexpectedly delicious and refreshing, especially on a hot day. I'm going to have to try adding pepper now.
Pepper and orange is really delicious! Black pepper has a lot of floral depth that works really well with bright (but also floral) orange.
Ooh thanks for the tip! I’m on a high salt diet for POTS and I’m always looking for new ways to get salt in!
I feel like that’s kind of a riff on what makes margaritas so delicious 🤤 can’t wait to try that one
What an outstanding video from you three. Very nice to see these combinations in action, would never have tested it myself. :)
Many greetings from Germany.
I love the Sorted community, this video was really interesting and entertaining but then I spent quite a while surfing the comments because they’re entertainment in themselves!!!
Toasted Sesame goes really well on apple slices. So does a combo of apricot jam+peanut butter+taijin seasoning
Missed opportunity to say “Hello!” in a loop like in the good ole days. Also, excited to see new flavour combos.
Happy Wednesday to SortedFood HQ and the Community!
From watching these guys for years, it's a joy. Does seem like chefs are just skill, experience, and the knowledge of how things taste and where to use them. Well cool.
LOL. As Barry said "if a chef was here..." I literally thought "... he'd say -- well, obviously".
I was raised putting salt on fruit and everyone thought I was strange for it. Try kiwi or watermelon. Change your life.
Watermelon with Balsamic Vinaigrette, Feta Chesse, and Pepper is a favorited mine
In the southern states salt on watermelon was fairly common
One of the strangest things I've seen people do ( I have tried it, didn't like it) was crumble "Cool Ranch" Doritos over chocolate ice cream. It's a thing in certain areas of the Southern United States, people argue over how much to crumble the Doritos (powder, or still a little bit chunky), if the spicy Doritos are better... it's something to try, anyway.
I am from North Dakota in the States and shall be trying this. Never hear of it but I like both individually so why not give it a go!?
Great Show! Really enjoyed this one and the crazy combinations were a first for me. Might try the bubblegum and bacon, two of my favourite flavours!! I had an idea for a format and i'm not sure if this has been done yet, but it would be nice for the 'normals' to get blind folded, eat a dish from start to finish, then recreate it without having seen it at all and they have to come as close to the dish they ate as possible. Thanks for the show guys!
Love when you guys do experiments like these!
Baz is a genius. I love marmite and vanilla ice cream. I'm so excited to try them together / make desserts with those flavours in tandem.
I bet balsamic glaze would be amazing with vanilla icecream! I love balsamic and strawberries so I think it would work.
French fries dipped in a chocolate shake. Strawberries dipped in marshmallow, and then roasted on an open fire. I have a list of 100 more of the best combinations. Olives with a hint of vanilla, and sea salt.
Flavourparing
In Germany we have a dish called "Käsespätzle mit Apfelbrei", there is no good translation for it so you have to look it up.
To prepare it, you need a strong swiss or austrian cheese, put roasted onions on top and than eat with cold apple mash, tastes amazing!
Love these combo flavor videos!
And dont worry mates! Just ask Jamie: everything is better with 🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓
Oh my. I apologise in advance if anyone has to try my weirdest one I tweeted! I loved it, but know most won’t 😂😂
Same
What was your flavor?
@@Urandayumm a few like the worse one were Hummus with cinnamon and porridge instead of water it's with Akdimal.
One best is watermelon and ginger
@@moonbook12 I hope they didn't force anyone on the show to pre test them hahaha.. Although the watermelon ginger could work
@@Uranday agree, I think they did
I love that you guys actually talk about flavour profiles and try and train viewers' palettes and brains to consider what they're eating -- rather than just saying "OMG THIS IS AMAZING DELICIOUS MUST EAT" or "OMG DISGUSTING GROSS TIKTOK TREND HORRIBLE". While I do think elements of clickbait have crept in to the channel over time, that is probably inevitable in a competitive enviroment. You deserve to be commended for how considered this video is. Great watch!
Vanilla ice cream and toasted sesame oil is also a weird but amazing combo!!!! The nuttiness of the sesame oil pairs well with the sweet, creamyness of the ice cream
Watermelon and soy sauce go well together. And if you add some furikake seasoning to that it’s absolutely delicious.
I'm gonna try that because I love all 3
One of my favourite snacks is a Granny Smith apple dipped in soy sauce so will definitely be trying it with watermelon now, thank you!
If you swapped out soy for miso on clotted cream ice cream it could be a better combo. Miso is so good in fatty foods, miso butter is amazing for example.
A couple things some people do in the US that I may or may not agree with:
-sliced tomatoes with sugar
-watermelon with salt
- dumping salted peanuts in a bottle of beer
That bacon pun was brilliant xD
Very interesting flavor combos, and of all things Bacon and Bubblegum...
I've had soy sauce flavoured soft serve ice cream in Japan a few times around tourist attractions. Some of the bigger vendors will have all sorts of flavours like wasabi, macha, sesame etc. In my experience they do taste just like vanilla ice cream with the added flavours and they work really well!
Weirdest one from Lebanon has to be figs with Zaatar (which is neither a condiment not a spice mix lads 😏😂)
Gotta try that 🥴❤️
weird combos probably even the internet hasn't tried
Hot Cheetos with garlic mayo
Waffles with Thai sweet chili sauce
Eggs with melted marshmallow
French fries with coffee syrup
Grilled chicken breast with strawberry/apricot jam.
i'm definitely gonna use some of these pairings for my oat meals lmao! and Mike, no worries, your pronunciation of 'jus alpukat' was perfect!
After 1 or two more of these vids I’d love to see you all do a weird pairing battle using what you’ve learned!
I've always loved the combo of (green) apple and cheddar cheese.
Slices of unripe green mango or jicama (singkamas) + sauteed shrimp paste and Champorado (chocolate rice porridge) + cooked dried salted fish (either dried anchovies (dilis) or dried sardines (tuyo))
Omg, I'm so proud! They're really learning and starting to get the cheffy way of mentally deconstructing taste!
Dill Pickle and peanut butter is an amazing combo. I also love peanut butter on a grilled cheese, or with and apple or banana. The sweet salty pairs with so much
CANNOT WAIT for this weekend!
You guys never fail to make me smile 😄
apple, honey, and fresh cracked pepper is my go-to, especially with some yummy creamy/nutty soft cheese on a cracker...oh boy...perfection!
I personally love fresh jalapeño on a salted butter frosted sticky dark chocolate brownie! Something about the spice with the butter sweetness! I don’t know if others do this but it’s my favorite homemade dessert!
In Indonesia, we mash the avocado then blend it with ground coffee (no added water) and sugar. For avocado juice (Jus Alpukat), you just blend avocado, chocolate condensed milk, and ice.
Just got mi tickets for the show! , point appart the combination of banana and pesto that you guys did in an older video is something that I continue to do now and that always gets to a conversation
Jamie talked about the candied Bacon with peanut butter sauce. But as a kid, we would eat peanut butter and bacon sandwiches. It was just normal American Bacon with a medium amount of peanut butter on the bread. It had that savory but creamy and slightly sweet taste, it is very tasty.
9:14 with my mom I've eaten a "salad" quite often over the last 15-ish years, consisting of green apples and celery (both leaves and stem) with a basic vinaigrette (pepper, salt, vinegar, olive oil) and it's grean, so it totally makes sense to me that works
I can tell you apples (any variant) chopped into small bites and then tossed with salt, paprika/red chili powder/fresh green chilis and mustard is a great snack. You can do that with unripe mangoes, guavas, pears etc and you will love that.
Truffle Soy Sauce + Vanilla Bean Ice cream is my pretentious treat whenever I wanna shock people. Also Ube + Chocolate ice-cream w/ Sour Sugar is my guilty creation and its FANTASTIC!
Jus Alpukat literally translates to Avocado juice.
Honestly my favourite drink to order/snack on when i was a child and it always brings me back when i make it for myself these days.
For the drink: Juice an avocado and serve it in a glass thats been drizzled with chocolate condensed milk.
For my childhood snack: Roughly mash an avocado in a cup (i love it extra chunky) with a fork, add a tablespoon or two of Milo powered milk and a pinch of salt.
P.S. Mike's pronounciation of Jus Alpukat is spot on!
I loved this! More please!
Loving him eating the smoothie from the jar😂😂😂😂
12:00 As an Indonesian, I can confirm that Mike's pronunciation of "Jus Alpukat" is quite spot on! Well done, Mike!
One of my all time favorite apple snacks is taking a green apple and slicing it into thin but wide strips and adding cracked black pepper, balsamic glaze, and feta! One of the best combos!
Concerning the apple: it's veeery common in Belgium to pair apple sauce with croquettes and meat (chicken) as a dish, and Cologne has a dish called Himmel un Aad, which is mashed potato mixed with apple sauce.
Also rabbit stewed with prunes.. or savoy cabbage with stewed cinnamon pears.
I like salt + pepper + dried minced / dehydrated garlic when eating melons or apples. I love catching that small piece of garlic when taking a bite.
Sorry Jamie, I watched you wanting to throw your tongue away about twenty five times🤣 it was just too funny.
Since y'all were trying vanilla ice cream, topping it with Angostura Bitters is absolutely magical.
OooOoooOoo!! I like that idea!
Love ❤️ this concept
An old hillbilly swore to me when I was a kid that vanilla ice cream and horseradish is amazing together.
I mix vanilla ice cream and either rice krispies or corn flakes. It is like having a bowl full of the last inch of ice cream cone ... lovely.
I love apple, pepper, garlic, and salt on a pork loin slow cooked for a Sunday dinner in the autumn when apples are in season from a local orchard!
My favourite sandwich is bacon,avocado and fried egg. Plus most hard and unripe fruits are lovely when sprinkled with a mix of salt and chilli powder, or you can add powdered chinese dried plums. Delicious 😍
I would absolutely adore seeing Ben react to this video! Seeing his reactions to all this would be amazing!
My Sicilian grandpa used to make me apple and grapefruit/orange slices with salt or salt& chili powder as palate cleanser. Love that you loved it too!
Barry's face when he first tries the soy sauce ice-cream combo is priceless! Make it a meme!
One of my favorite things to do with apples was dice it and cook it until soft with some spinach with salt and pepper. Always really enjoyed it as a lighter side with a steak. Happy to see anything close to that around
Balsamic reduction over orange sherbert is The BOMB! I had that once as a pallet cleanser between courses at a big Italian dinner.
On using salt & pepper on the apples. I keep a pot of chaat masala on my desk to sprinkle on fruits for extra flavour. Salt & pepper are two of the ingredients in it, though the others really help add as well as bring out the fruity flavours.
Salting slices of apple is just how I thought everyone ate them - because that's how everyone in my family has always enjoyed their apples. Now I want salted apple....
I'm not surprised about the pepper and apple. For 25 years or so, I've had yoghurt and pepper on melon (canteloupe), and powdered ginger on Honey Dew green melon for breakfast from time to time.
We've always eaten Granny Smith apples sprinkled with salt and pepper. Try it in an apple pie, delicious. I never tire of Mike's facial expressions.
Strawberries and Kalamata olives with feta and red onions....found this combo while working for a salad place. YUM
We need another one of these 😂😂❤❤
that JUS ALPUKAT is on point mike hahaha
vanilla ice cream + crushed salted roasted peanuts, stir til you get a "flurry", you`re welcome.
Not 100% surprised. Green apple slices wrapped in prosciutto and baked for just a minute at 400F is amazing. Add a drizzle of maple syrup to taste.
no need to apologizing mike, as an Indonesian I can assure you that your pronunciation on "Jus Alpukat" is spot on imo
