    Hong Kong style Cheung fun usually is swimming in sauce, has shallots for sweetness too, spring onions for some freshness, and they are generally applauded for a minimum skin thickness. The sorted food attempt looks pretty authentic there.

      I don't think there usually got shallots in it. In hk, Cheung fun got two type, one in Yum cha, it will have stuff in it. But for normal street vander, there is nothing in it, and serve with a sweet source, peanut sauce and soy sauce.

    Hi! Im a chemistry student at uni and the fat washing is actually something we use in the lab!! Because water and oil don’t mix (water- polar- being the alcohol and oil - non polar- being the butter) the washing actually just helps to separate these even further so any polar bits hanging around in the butter get drawn out by the water and vice versa, enhancing the flavour of both!! 💛💛

      Yeah, generally fat washing is done by melting the fat, adding that to the booze, shaking it up and letting it sit for some amount of time. Then, you put the booze in the freezer to totally solidify the fat (the booze won't freeze!), and pull that off as a block.

    That was a lot of fun to watch. I almost choked on my drink when Mike said Dim Dum and pointed at himself and Jamie.
    My Dad used to get mud from the Murray River and we would coat apples and potatoes thickly in it then put them in the camp-fire lowish coals and cook until the mud dried and cracked a bit. We would then get them out crumble the mud off give them a quick wash then eat mud baked apples and potatoes. Something you might need to try next camping trip you go on.

    • @vanillablossom
      @vanillablossom วันที่ผ่านมา +5

      @@neilthehermit4655 I read about this technique used on hedgehogs by Roma / gypsy tribes in central Europe as well! The book was written in the 50s, I think? And the author said (he spent a lot of time with them and researched them, when after ww2 they were forced to settle), that they eat only these hedgehogs with nose like the pig has. The hedgehogs can have noses that look like pig's nose or like dog's nose. Dogs are considered unclean, so even anything that resembles them is unclean, too.
      Not sure whether I didn't mix up that about noses, since I read about it well before pandemic. But I surely read about it in this context, because it was also the first time ever I read about hedgehogs having different types of noses and paying attention to the noses when I see some hedgehog irl. So far I saw mostly the ones with dog's noses, but now looking at the English word for hedgehog (English isn't my native language, I watch Sorted, because I like cooking), I think the pig nosed one might be / have been prevalent in English speaking countries.

    A favourite of mine that you've never covered is "Eclade", as in "Eclade de moules". Lay a lot of mussels on a board or flat rock, hinge side up. Cover with dry pine needles or hay & set fire to it. The needles/hay burns really hot & fast cooking the mussels in their shell. (You put them hinge side up so no ash gets in). One of the finest beach meals ever & looks spectacular. (You will have to do it outside though.Maybe next time you do a "Washed Up"?) 🦪

      Difference between a chef and a good cook: Volume, speed, consistency, cleanliness, max product yield, recipe generation, kitchen management, ordering and forecasting, etc. - there's a ton of work and training that goes into being a professional chef that we don't see here.

    We fat wash liquors for cocktails at my bar all the time! A great technique is to actually heat up the fat just to the point where its liquid, then combine with the liquor, and then freeze it after letting it sit out awhile. Freezing causes the fat to resolidify, so you can separate it from the washed liquor easily.

    I actually do fat washing during the holidays to make butter infused dark rum. I brown the butter and let it get closer to room temp and then mix it with a whole bottle of rum and use an immersion blender to almost emulsify it. Cover in cling film and bring it to fridge cold before sticking in the freezer overnight. Next day I pull the puck on top off and strain it back into the rum bottle. Then when it's butter rum time, just add demerara sugar, hot water, and some of the butter-infused rum. BAM! Hot Butter Rum without having to keep a batter.
    I got the recipe basically from HowToDrink, just to give credit where credit is due.

    There's a fun technique in Finnish cuisine called "imellys", which involves covering a starchy food (usually potatotes) with wheat flour at slightly elevated (about body) temperature. This allows for the amylase enzymes in the wheat to break the starch into malt sugar, essentially making a sweetened dish without using any syrup or sugar. "Tuuvinki" or sweetened potato casserole is a Christmas staple in certain regions of Finland.

    Maybe some other chemistry enthusiast can confirm me here, but I think it might be possible that the glycerides are actually swapping esters with the ethanol. It would be supported by entropy, at least a full swap. Therefore we have some fatty acid ethanolates and glycerine in an equilibrium. The reaction is quite slow I would assume. You could try and add some citric acid to the glass and see if this speeds up the process.
    Obviously the bigger factor remains the fat soluability of aroma carriers such as terpenes in the liquor.

    If you're looking for other global cooking techniques, I'd nominate Hungarian veggie stews called főzelék, where the vegetables are thickened with a local variety of roux and/or milk or sour cream, depending upon the sort of vegetable used.

      Barding is a good technique. Have you tried Larding? A similar idea, but you use a larding needle to push strips of fat, bacon, herbs...etc into poultry, meat or large vegetables to flavour & moisten/baste it during roasting.

    In Argentina we have a method called “lomo al trapo”. Lomo means sirloin and trapo means rag/cloth. You basically season the meat, cover it with the cloth and drench it in wine afterwards you cook the wrapped meat directly on coals. The finished product is quite unique and tasty

    The fat washing trend is big in the cocktail world right now, though they call it milk punch here as they usually use milk/cream as the fat. They're actually pretty good, you get all the subtle flavors of the alcohol without too much of the burn.

    • @ScubaSteveabc
      @ScubaSteveabc วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Fat washing and milk clarifying are different processes, actually.
      Milk punch clarification is less about the fat, and more about proteins. Specifically casein proteins in milk which bind to bitter tannic compounds and then coagulate so they can be strained out. Fat washing is about flavor compounds that are fat and alcohol soluble, but not water soluble. So you're basically making an infusion where you're drawing those flavors out of your fat which would be otherwise difficult to extract.
      Most recently, I had a Wagyu washed old fashioned outside of DC, as well as a duck fat washed old fashioned at a restaurant in New Orleans. But were pretty different, and the Wagyu one was very intense.

    love to see Æbleskiver/Munker (Munker was always what my swedish great grandmother called it). Its a bit like Takoyaki but larger and more like pancake batter, sweet and great for breakfasts. We'd usually have them with jam or syurip, but traditionally they're done with small amounts of chopped apple or applesauce embeded inside (we always broke them in half, filled them, then closer them back up)

    A food I had when I was in Grad school in South Dakota was Chislics. It’s a very regional dish, with variations from city to city. It’s a deep fried meat cube (sometimes battered, other times not depending on which city) powdered with garlic salt and served with soda crackers. Very simple, but delicious.

    Pass it on ideas:
    Open book: they each get a small amount of time (e.g 3 minutes) before their turn to look up recipes to help them
    Blind time: They choose when to leave the kitchen, but don't see the timer (with a normal total time). To pass they all have to still have a minimum time each (say 4 minutes or so) so they need to be somewhat conscious of that when thinking about how much time they take. Maybe have it in reverse order of the normal challenge (last to first) with the chef(s) last.
    No heat pass it on: Forces them to use things like curing and quick pickles
    Microwave only pass it on
    Pass it on notes: Give them a break for once, let them leave notes at the end of their turn for the next person.

    I brought my (at the time) girlfriend to Ekstedt, its amazing, and the staff brought us into the kitchen where they used the flambadou to cook oysters in that way (finished with red wine vinegar). They heat it up so much. so when the fat hits the iron, it bursts into flame, and the fat dripping into the oysters is also on fire. Such a spectacle, definitely not safe.

    I'd say you guys have to try out "pootharekulu". Its essentially a sweet from southern part of India, where a piece of cloth is dipped into a thin rice flour batter and dropped onto a inverted hot clay pot and is kinda dragged/pulled towards you so that it leaves a thin layer of batter on the pot. Once its cooked it becomes flaky almost like a Filo Pastry used for Baklava, similar to it the flaky "pastry" is also then filled with mixed nuts and ghee and folded over
