It's true: great minds think alike!😊
They're inside the walls!
Absolutely loved your 'companion' video of katsudon that included leftover katsu (which anyone can sub for leftover fried meat tbh)!
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I really appreciate that Alvin very often shows or talks about doing something with the leftovers. 💖
I came here to say the same thing. Love the random distraction showing how to use everything they have.
I agree!! Love the side quest. Does he do this in all his videos? I don’t often watch the ones he makes
@@scarlettb_1738 In most of them, he does. Alvin's stuff is honestly really great. He's really charming and the way he cooks (and uses all his extra stuff to sort of mess around) is quite relatable.

Embodying the spirit of Sanji :D
Thank you for using our video as a reference! I was surprised at how perfectly you recreated it!
Thank you for putting out the video to inspire this!
I love how you always mention what happens with the leftovers and highlight ways to use the scraps. So many cooking shows seem to produce a ton of food waste and just never mention it.
The way Alvin talks about sharing food with all the hardworking members of Babish is very comforting.
I don't know if anyone mentioned it, but huge shoutout to Alvin and the crew absolutely Carrying the BCU with their talent while Andrew took care of himself.
Well it was also due to Andrew not making movie/TV content during the strikes.
@@Oregonduck09well he started with fake movie/tv show recipes, but those stopped as well after a while
WhaT happened with Andrew?
Truth
The evolution of this segment's name is wonderful 😂. Anything with Alvin though is quite fitting. It has reached it's final form.
Wish he just stayed at Anime. Binging making video game food is so much better
@@dazedandconfused5711this isn't anime with Alvin, it's anything. They just posted 2 anime episodes. It's not taking over that sub series.
But the videogame food series is Arcade with Alvin @@dazedandconfused5711
I didn't know whisks can grow so much when you feed them with a flour and egg mixture 6:18 . You learn something new everyday.
Is it a coincidence that both Kenji and Babish are making Katsudon videos at the exact same time?
Great minds etc 😊
right!
Ifkr?! I thought I was seeing double
Always wild to see two videos like that pop up one right next to another in your sub box.
I thought I was having a stroke
I always love Alvins leftover side-quests. I've noticed myself starting to do this too now; used the last of the broccolis from my garden for this season and only needed the florets for sunday lunch (am I british enough yet?). Steamed the stems a bit and used some leftover paella from earlier in the week and stripped the chicken carcass from the aforementioned lunch to make this sort of fried rice dish for the evening; was very tasty and surprisingly the rice didn't disintegrate!
Alvin just riffing in the kitchen, vibing with the food, makes such a relaxing video. Very onboard with anything more in this series.
We get a leftover video AND an Alvin video, in one? We are truly blessed this day.
The creation with the left overs intrigued me more than the katsudon.
I kinda want to try making that.
I love how you guys try to keep using ingredients you have on hand from previous shows and attempt make use of as much as you can. Maybe other shows do that too, but its nice to see the Babish Universe goes out of their was to be mindful of waste.
It's so sweet that you feed Steve like that
Love how Alvin expanded to more than anime and video game food. Also Steve is one lucky man! 😃
Always down to watch anything with Alvin
This brand new spinoff episode totally reminds me of your days back at BuzzFeed, and I'm glad you're going back to relive it here in the BCU, Alvin.
I always get relaxed AND hungry from Alvin's videos!
Just made me think of a character who's favorite food is katsudon
I actually miss seeing Alvin's face when he does these giant food episodes. He used to laugh and joke around and be silly when he did this and you can tell he had a lot of fun.
I feel like giant katsu doesnt have the right breading to meat ratio, and a lot of the bites would just taste like pretty plain pork because its so thick. I normally find around 3/4" to be ideal, but the idea to use sous vide to precook the porkchops sound interesting, it would make cooking a whole lot of them faster and probably more juicy.
LOVE that it’s now anything with Alvin! Love that guy!
Choujuku Shokupan 6 slices of medium-thick soft white bread.
I always bought the bread from Pasco (Japanese bread brand company), which costs $1.13.
I like it because the ingredients are simple.
toasted bread with butter, 4 slices I prefer.
sandwiches, 8 (or 10) slices.
…usually numbered by slices (4, 5, 6 and 8) to indicate how many slices in the package and how thick the slices are.
Soon: Everything, everywhere, all at once by Alvin.
if I recall correctly, in a documentary I watched they said panko breadcrumbs were made by cooking the bread with an electrical current which crystalizes the bread structure.
I enjoyed how you dealt with the leftover ingredients.
Fun fact: Panko isn't actually a normal loaf-style bread, it's "baked" using an electrical current that gives it the distinct texture the crumbs made from it are known for.
Thats not Panko. Panko is made from electrocuted dough, invented during world war II as a means to make bread without fire.They just used tank batteries. The texture is very different to common white bread.
I want the mystery left over food so bad! :D❤
I've been watching BCU for like five years, and I've never liked or commented on a video.
Alvin, your action of letting your crew taste your delicious creation before you warmed my dark heart, and I felt inspired to like and comment. Bless you.🖤
i got a babish ad before the video even started
i love how i just learned how to make tonkatsu and katsudon this week and this comes out. now I can perfect my bowls
It doesn't physically contain any okonomiyaki ingredients, but given that the name just means "Fried favorites" I think it should count!
it's fun, aesthetically the omelette was very close to a classic spanish tortilla (the eggs/chips/onions one). cool to see two meals instead of just one in a purely serendipitous way
Steve is a well fed camera man
Freeze the bread slices before using the box grater. Works great to get those large bread crumbs.
Riffing over the bread crusts and ending up with that beautiful breakfast conglomerate was a great angle. Do that mor!
"Oh he is going to make Crotons"
"Never mind"
私の知ってるカツ丼ではないけれど、とても美味しそうです🤤
I appreciate this channel's dedication to not wasting food.
when I saw the original video I was thinking "they must have sous vided it" - glad to see someone do it before I gave it a shot.
Anything with Alvin Request: Full Pound Burger Patty Covered in Cheese (Monterey & Extra Sharp White Cheddar) Soaked in Rich Creamery Butter (Tillamook), Top with 5 Strips of Bacon, Ham & a Fried Egg Sandwich between TWO Krispy Kreme Doughnuts
Alvin going back to his roots by making giant food.
I watch those type of videos when it's about asian dishes and how it is wonderful to see it.
If I ever get fired from my job I want to work in a place where Alvin regularly brings up leftover omelets for us.
I'm taking its a sign. I just left the store with the ingredients to meal prep katsudon for the week
This is the most glorious bowl of rice in the history of the universe
Amazed to see one of the very videos I've watched of Japanese katsudon being made while unable to sleep at 3AM at the beginning of this video !!
Alvin should get his own channel fr
He has his own channel my guy. The cookie recipe is great.
I like the casual way you're going on a sidequest 💜
First it was Binging with Babish , then Anime with Alvin, and now it’s Snacking with Steve
Ayo this has to be my favorite episode of Big Food with Alvin
my man Alvin almost broke his back carrying this channel
I love the side quests to use leftovers ❤️
The toast omelette was better looking that the main event! I usually do a Spanish tortilla, but this also has some real possibility
i just love how you find ways not to waste food ❤️
Alvin just carrying this channel. What happened with Andrew?
Steve is my favorite person. I wish I could be like Steve. I wish I could take home all the leftovers xD
Steve is the sweetest person ever!! A joy to work with and be around.
Alvin is carrying this channel
Man he made 2 versions of a giant katsudon
1:17 GENERAL KENOBI!!
You guys should make the pastrymenchen from fionna and cake!
I have to admit, I like Alvin's non-soggy version best. But to each their own.
Yesssssss i was wound about the sauce used and now I can make it my self
Hey Babish, there's a specific scene in the film Transporter 3 that describes an exquisite dish based on Veal 😌 I haven't actually seen any you tube videos covering it so I think it would make a fun episode for this channel 🔥 plus based on how detailed the scene is, it could prove to be a decent challenge 😂
Shout out to the highly scientific finger section method for cooking rice. Still don’t understand how it works but it totally does.
I was just thinking about making this again! Nice to see it made in another way!
ive just had a nice dinner and im starving again
Alvin is my favourite
Stunningly beautiful. The fresh panko seemed to yield an especially nice texture and color. I think I'd still prefer normal, thinner slices for a higher ratio of bread to meat, but it sure looked perfectly cooked, and no doubt delicious with that sauce.
You couldn't recreate the panko because panko is made by running electricity through dough.
7:28 what a beautiful crunch sound that can't be heard in the video.
And if anyone can make giant foods, it’s Alvin!
4:00 oh it's almost like a savory bread pudding
Ahh basically making it big again!!!!!
Alvin is so precious 🥰
The Giant Katsudon is very tasty and very delicious 😋🤤😊❤.
Freeze and THEN grate it! Works perfectly.
Makes sense. Firm it up, and the grater can do its job.
"Anything with Alvin" sounds like my watch history.
Alvin should make the foxtail millet ramen from Dr Stone
Savory japanese "bread pudding" vibes
that rice looked perfect
Well I've learnt where panko breadcrumbs come from.....the more you know 🤷♀️❤️
I love that Katsudon video!
can you try the traditional katsudon sometime?
I was making this for over I year now, it's super delicious 😋
I'm loving alvin
For a future Arcade with Alvin, how about that wedding cake from Super Mario RPG?
Thanks for showing a meal suggestion for the food scraps! Always great to show people ways to avoid wasting food.
The ol' hold-the-knife-like-a-sword grip.
Why does the word “katsudon” seem like the name of a dinosaur to me? 😂
Odon is greek for tooth and a lot of prehistoric animals were named X-don to describe them. Iguanadon for example was named literally Iguana-Tooth.
On your next anime based dish, you should make Oyakodon based from the 100 Girlfriends anime. If you haven't watched it, it's super funny
Wow. He's making it big.
So, did you guys coordinate with Kenji to both release a Katsudon video at the exact same time, or what? Lol
you and kenji dropped a katsudon video at the same time
I remember watching this same katsudon video while I skipped lunch!
Try doing homers bell pepper martini from the Simpsons
Babish, you should make a video for the game RuneScape’s food, there are thousands of things to make from it and the fan base is growing right now higher than ever
This is so beautiful and wholesome! Love the fact that y'all make something amazing with the leftover ingredients
Edit: Whoa I'm early!
That looks like something you'd eat in monster hunter
